own_a as_o such_o and_o as_o to_o this_o i_o need_v only_o inform_v you_o that_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n be_v receive_v here_o and_o all_o the_o catholic_n world_n over_o as_o to_o all_o its_o

with_o we_o so_o many_o article_n of_o faith_n and_o be_v obligatory_a to_o all_o of_o our_o communion_n yet_o not_o so_o of_o every_o other_o matter_n declare_v in_o such_o a_o council_n there_o be_v

hint_v who_o decree_n of_o doctrine_n be_v as_o much_o acknowledge_v here_o by_o catholic_n in_o england_n and_o germany_n as_o within_o the_o wall_n of_o rome_n itself_o or_o the_o vatican_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v other_o constitution_n and_o decree_n be_v not_o universal_o receive_v and_o it_o may_v be_v never_o will_n now_o sir_n although_o we_o allow_v some_o council_n have_v make_v decree_n

church_n council_n and_o pope_n themselves_o who_o plain_o enough_o own_o this_o in_o let_v so_o many_o open_a and_o positive_a assertor_n of_o the_o no-deposing_a power_n to_o pass_v without_o any_o

will_v have_v be_v a_o full_a answer_n to_o it_o as_o to_o such_o particular_n but_o how_o far_o you_o have_v fail_v of_o your_o endeavour_n even_o in_o this_o point_n i_o leave_v now_o to_o the_o
