a_o member_n of_o some_o distinct_a church_n this_o have_v be_v a_o ready_a way_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o dispute_n and_o give_v satisfaction_n to_o the_o reader_n and_o this_o have_v be_v

to_o this_o question_n though_o he_o have_v often_o request_v it_o §_o 4._o but_o because_o he_o seem_v so_o little_o satisfy_v with_o this_o answer_n as_o to_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o it_o i_o
