not_o have_v be_v the_o true_a and_o catholic_a church_n but_o the_o arrian_n shall_v have_v be_v the_o catholic_n church_n for_o that_o they_o far_o exceed_v in_o number_n the_o rest_n which_o be_v

the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n and_o wherein_o christ_n may_v have_v his_o spouse_n the_o argument_n therefore_o proceed_v from_o a_o insufficient_a enumeration_n or_o reckon_n up_o of_o the_o part_n to_o
