therefore_o i_o resolve_v to_o begin_v on_o one_o side_n of_o the_o room_n and_o walk_v on_o to_o the_o other_o so_o draw_v near_o to_o they_o my_o venerable_a friend_n follow_v i_o i_o begin_v to_o

they_o do_v the_o same_o as_o we_o be_v pass_v before_o they_o i_o can_v not_o but_o be_v amaze_v because_o i_o can_v not_o imagine_v that_o all_o the_o pope_n be_v so_o shortsighted_a as_o to_o

wonder_v if_o they_o shall_v look_v at_o any_o one_o as_o other_o folk_n do_v for_o it_o be_v their_o nature_n to_o do_v every_o thing_n quite_o contrary_a to_o all_o other_o perhaps_o to_o make_v they_o know_v that_o they_o be_v god_n and_o not_o man_n see_v they_o do_v act_n like_o man_n which_o they_o be_v but_o like_o god_n which_o they_o pretend_v to_o be_v the_o spectacle_n which_o thou_o

not_o be_v at_o that_o trouble_n because_o you_o expect_v it_o shall_v be_v thrust_v into_o your_o throat_n with_o a_o little_a spoon_n and_o i_o who_o be_o very_o much_o incline_v to_o lay_v open_a

my_o fury_n rage_v more_o violent_o because_o i_o have_v ask_v that_o man_n if_o he_o know_v where_o the_o pope_n of_o the_o two_o last_o age_n be_v &_o he_o have_v reply_v he_o know_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o they_o at_o all_o because_o the_o lord_n god_n in_o the_o hide_a secret_n of_o his_o justice_n have_v dispose_v of_o they_o suitable_o to_o the_o desert_n of_o their_o work_n at_o rome_n but_o i_o notwithstanding_o my_o know_v very_o well_o that_o they_o merit_v hell_n for_o their_o tyranny_n and_o extortion_n towards_o the_o poor_a people_n to_o enrich_v their_o kindred_n yet_o will_v not_o at_o that_o instant_a judge_n so_o rigorous_o but_o i_o imagine_v they_o be_v in_o purgatory_n m._n there_o than_o you_o may_v look_v for_o they_o for_o when_o the_o purgation_n of_o their_o sin_n be_v pass_v they_o will_v come_v thither_o to_o the_o other_o p._n thy_o council_n do_v not_o please_v i_o in_o this_o matter_n for_o i_o will_v never_o be_v such_o a_o fool_n to_o wait_v perhaps_o in_o vain_a thousand_o of_o year_n there_o and_o special_o whilst_o i_o be_v so_o uncertain_a whether_o they_o be_v in_o purgatory_n or_o indeed_o in_o hell_n nay_o if_o they_o be_v real_o in_o purgatory_n it_o be_v madness_n in_o i_o to_o wait_v for_o their_o come_n out_o the_o pope_n have_v not_o only_o their_o own_o particular_a guilt_n on_o their_o back_n but_o also_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o nephew_n and_o of_o many_o other_o sinner_n who_o they_o lead_v unto_o sin_n therefore_o purgatory_n must_v be_v a_o very_a hell_n to_o they_o m._n what_o do_v thou_o do_v then_o have_v lose_v thy_o longing_n p._n i_o throw_v away_o all_o those_o thought_n which_o so_o torment_v my_o head_n to_o see_v the_o pope_n and_o begin_v to_o fix_v in_o my_o mind_n a_o desire_n to_o see_v their_o nephew_n though_o it_o be_v requisite_a to_o go_v into_o purgatory_n for_o it_o which_o that_o good_a person_n observe_v he_o be_v so_o scandalize_v at_o i_o that_o he_o go_v out_o before_o i_o and_o when_o we_o be_v in_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o last_o gate_n of_o the_o aforesaid_a vatican_n he_o disappear_v i_o do_v not_o know_v how_o and_o i_o remain_v in_o a_o unknown_a
