and_o his_o adherent_n as_o namely_o of_o wigirton_n arthington_n and_o copinger_n all_o schismatic_n and_o of_o one_o sect_n and_o brotherhood_n but_o i_o say_v i_o do_v most_o serious_o commend_v to_o your_o consideration_n the_o beginning_n and_o death_n of_o the_o say_v hacket_n who_o be_v first_o a_o pretender_n to_o a_o tenderness_n of_o conscience_n but_o a_o schismatic_a and_o stop_v not_o there_o but_o become_v by_o degree_n so_o full_o possess_v by_o the_o evil_a spirit_n the_o spirit_n of_o pride_n and_o opposition_n that_o he_o public_o revile_v the_o queen_n the_o
