the_o appointment_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o by_o the_o principle_n of_o christianity_n to_o be_v obey_v and_o submit_v to_o in_o thing_n wherein_o the_o fundamental_a law_n of_o the_o government_n

they_o be_v remit_v and_o who_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v be_v by_o all_o the_o primitive_a father_n interpret_v in_o this_o manner_n wheresoever_o you_o shall_v effectual_o preach_v

judge_v of_o none_o from_o whence_o be_v infer_v by_o the_o canonist_n that_o first_o the_o pope_n be_v the_o spiritual_a man_n and_o then_o that_o he_o be_v to_o be_v judge_n of_o all_o the_o world_n and_o last_o that_o he_o be_v never_o to_o be_v liable_a to_o any_o judgement_n himself_o whereas_o it_o be_v obvious_a to_o the_o mean_a understanding_n that_o st._n paul_n in_o this_o text_n mean_v to_o distinguish_v between_o a_o person_n inspire_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o one_o remain_v in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n which_o latter_a he_o say_v can_v judge_v of_o those_o heavenly_a gift_n and_o grace_n as_o he_o explain_v himself_o when_o he_o say_v the_o natural_a man_n can_v discern_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o they_o be_v foolishness_n unto_o he_o to_o take_v my_o leave_n of_o this_o matter_n whole_o out_o of_o the_o way_n of_o my_o study_n i_o shall_v beg_v of_o you_o messieur_n zenobio_n and_o of_o messieur_n giulio_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o
