not_o allow_v the_o clergyman_n by_o the_o bishop_n as_o be_v note_v before_o because_o it_o be_v loose_a and_o sinful_a as_o he_o show_v upon_o clear_a reason_n and_o in_o this_o the_o bishop_n will_v have_v a_o good_a conscience_n at_o the_o great_a day_n a_o doctrinal_a interpretation_n be_v the_o explication_n of_o any_o doctor_n or_o doctor_n of_o the_o church_n concern_v a_o article_n
