become_v of_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o people_n may_v not_o the_o most_o erroneous_a and_o pernicious_a doctrine_n and_o practice_n prevail_v in_o the_o church_n whilst_o the_o great_a part_n of_o it_o

they_o have_v extend_v the_o practice_n of_o it_o further_o though_o they_o have_v polish_v it_o with_o more_o dexterity_n and_o defend_v it_o with_o more_o subtlety_n than_o other_o of_o that_o
