then_o this_o discourse_n but_o the_o answer_n be_v short_o and_o clere_o this_o that_o wheresoever_o they_o find_v our_o doctor_n to_o be_v of_o a_o contrary_a opinion_n they_o shall_v also_o find_v those_o point_n in_o question_n not_o be_v have_v be_v define_v by_o the_o church_n but_o leave_v at_o liberty_n to_o be_v debate_v and_o dispute_v as_o man_n see_v cause_n such_o be_v a_o world_n
