find_v out_o a_o particular_a person_n and_o that_o he_o that_o will_v find_v he_o out_o know_v not_o the_o man_n but_o for_o his_o better_a direction_n apply_v himself_o to_o one_o that_o know_v

will_v he_o not_o be_v make_v much_o the_o wise_a by_o this_o grave_a reply_n and_o forthwith_o be_v able_a to_o find_v out_o the_o man_n he_o seek_v for_o by_o this_o goodly_a direction_n or_o will_v he_o not_o say_v sir_n i_o come_v not_o to_o be_v inform_v of_o that_o which_o every_o one_o that_o be_v not_o a_o stark_a fool_n understand_v as_o well_o as_o your_o worship_n but_o i_o will_v know_v

to_o be_v find_v out_o first_o the_o mark_n or_o the_o man_n and_o what_o be_v those_o mark_n and_o where_o must_v i_o seek_v they_o sure_o it_o need_v no_o application_n as_o for_o his_o triumphant_a

a_o distance_n these_o man_n be_v from_o the_o true_a church_n who_o conceive_v it_o so_o hard_a to_o find_v she_o out_o all_o holy_a father_n ever_o judge_v it_o a_o most_o easy_a thing_n to_o each_o person_n insomuch_o that_o the_o holy_a doctor_n 30._o st._n augustin_n thus_o deliver_v his_o sense_n of_o it_o i_o tell_v you_o with_o truth_n brethren_n the_o prophet_n have_v speak_v more_o obscure_o of_o christ_n than_o of_o the_o church_n i_o believe_v because_o they_o see_v in_o spirit_n that_o man_n will_v make_v sect_n against_o the_o church_n but_o will_v not_o be_v so_o much_o divide_v about_o christ_n but_o it_o be_v natural_a for_o a_o crimnal_a to_o question_v the_o power_n of_o his_o judge_n and_o these_o man_n know_v it_o have_v ever_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o all_o

vindication_n he_o say_v it_o be_v observable_a at_o what_o a_o distance_n man_n be_v from_o the_o true_a church_n who_o conceive_v it_o so_o hard_a to_o find_v it_o out_o but_o our_o distance_n from_o the_o true_a church_n be_v not_o the_o more_o because_o we_o conceive_v it_o so_o hard_a to_o find_v she_o out_o in_o their_o way_n and_o by_o such_o mark_n which_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o find_v she_o out_o by_o but_o now_o if_o we_o go_v in_o st._n augustine_n way_n then_o it_o be_v not_o difficult_a for_o thus_o he_o determine_v 14._o it_o the_o
