by_o infinite_a writer_n of_o that_o age_n of_o this_o and_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n do_v rise_v against_o these_o upstart_n and_o lay_v novelty_n to_o their_o charge_n therefore_o

have_v always_o be_v and_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o upstart_n therefore_o catholic_n who_o embrace_n this_o faith_n derive_v from_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o and_o establish_v by_o continual_a
