so_o slippery_a so_o weak_a various_a waver_a changeable_a inconstant_a as_o you_o see_v the_o private_a reason_n of_o the_o learned_a be_v to_o be_v rely_v on_o by_o they_o as_o their_o guide_n in_o

applicable_a to_o the_o learned_a for_o be_v not_o the_o taste_n of_o the_o manna_n as_o different_a to_o the_o priest_n as_o it_o be_v to_o the_o people_n do_v it_o not_o relish_v according_a to_o

be_v the_o same_o they_o all_o feed_v on_o yet_o the_o relish_n be_v as_o different_a as_o their_o temper_n and_o palate_n do_v you_o therefore_o see_v that_o man_n will_v never_o be_v of_o one_o

for_o i_o can_v tell_v you_o of_o many_o cardinal_n who_o have_v differ_v from_o his_o holiness_n and_o among_o themselves_o too_o about_o the_o sense_n of_o it_o be_v it_o not_o then_o as_o plain_a
