if_o we_o at_o the_o least_o geve_v credence_n to_o it_o whereof_o socrates_n in_o plato_n doubt_v nothing_o at_o all_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n the_o veraie_a man_n to_o be_v the_o soul_n and_o this_o

of_o this_o thing_n be_v not_o the_o apostle_n a_o sufficient_a argument_n the_o which_o than_o begin_v to_o take_v veraie_a fruition_n in_o christ_n and_o true_o to_o love_v he_o after_o the_o
