that_o hold_v the_o same_o whole_a truth_n in_o separation_n from_o they_o be_v of_o that_o christian_a orthodoxal_a church_n which_o be_v schismatical_a and_o such_o be_v the_o church_n of_o

by_o faith_n and_o sanctify_a in_o the_o lavour_n of_o regeneration_n they_o i_o say_v be_v of_o that_o christian_a orthodoxal_a catholic_a church_n which_o be_v invisible_a and_o know_v only_o unto_o

again_o we_o have_v receive_v to_o believe_v the_o whole_a truth_n and_o therefore_o be_v a_o oxthodoxall_a not_o a_o heretical_a church_n last_o we_o hold_v the_o whole_a truth_n of_o god_n in_o unity_n with_o other_o church_n and_o among_o we_o there_o be_v thousand_o also_o who_o profess_v the_o same_o with_o sincere_a and_o sanctify_a heart_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o a_o

a_o true_a body_n like_o unto_o we_o but_o that_o body_n which_o you_o fancy_v to_o be_v in_o the_o eucharist_n be_v not_o like_a unto_o our_o body_n for_o in_o this_o body_n there_o be_v no_o
