have_v be_v repeal_v the_o say_v jones_n do_v grant_v that_o to_o be_v true_a but_o then_o let_v it_o be_v well_o consider_v by_o who_o it_o be_v repeal_v and_o that_o be_v by_o queen_n mary_n a_o

too_o much_o upon_o national_a law_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n because_o they_o who_o be_v the_o conformist_n in_o one_o king_n reign_n may_v be_v the_o nonconformist_n in_o his_o successor_n

but_o whether_o the_o man_n of_o doctors-common_n may_v not_o believe_v that_o a_o change_n of_o religion_n establish_v by_o law_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a argument_n to_o keep_v their_o place_n and_o plead_v conformity_n shall_v be_v leave_v for_o time_n to_o manifest_v and_o now_o the_o say_a jones_n will_v return_v to_o the_o repeal_n of_o the_o former_a statute_n anno_fw-la primo_fw-la
