18._o that_o their_o doctrine_n do_v spread_v as_o a_o gangreen_n and_o overthrow_v the_o faith_n of_o some_o 11._o that_o they_o subvert_v whole_a house_n teach_v thing_n which_o they_o ought_v not_o

5._o give_v man_n up_o to_o satan_n for_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o yet_o we_o never_o find_v that_o they_o do_v use_v their_o power_n to_o inflict_v death_n upon_o the_o heretic_n or_o the_o deceiver_n or_o that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o do_v attend_v upon_o their_o censure_n ever_o do_v thus_o operate_v but_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o father_n note_n that_o
