same_o opportunity_n the_o same_o education_n the_o same_o apprehension_n and_o the_o same_o notion_n of_o thing_n and_o therefore_o admit_v a_o difference_n without_o a_o disagreement_n and_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a of_o it_o will_v be_v a_o bless_a change_n if_o humility_n can_v take_v the_o place_n and_o do_v the_o office_n of_o ecclesiastical_a censure_n so_o as_o to_o make_v they_o useless_a and_o needless_a for_o the_o future_a and_o so_o put_v a_o end_n to_o those_o severity_n of_o law_n which_o as_o all_o other_o punishment_n in_o other_o matter_n can_v be_v justify_v by_o nothing_o
