err_v in_o very_a deed_n in_o matter_n of_o divine_a faith_n none_o can_v for_o know_v that_o the_o spirit_n operation_n be_v necessary_a to_o all_o true_a faith_n and_o know_v again_o when_o it_o

in_o that_o the_o pretender_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o frequent_o by_o this_o spirit_n contradict_v one_o another_o and_o indeed_o this_o arrogant_a persuasion_n and_o ultimate_a refuge_n of_o
