property_n of_o this_o generation_n need_v no_o proof_n it_o be_v manifest_a by_o daily_a experience_n here_o therefore_o we_o may_v learn_v what_o to_o esteem_v and_o judge_v of_o the_o

they_o boast_v themselves_o to_o be_v a_o holy_a catholic_n church_n and_o spouse_n of_o christ_n which_o can_v err_v etc._n etc._n and_o by_o this_o we_o may_v see_v how_o lamentable_o the_o nation_n
