say_v mr._n kerne_n say_v that_o in_o time_n of_o straitness_n person_n that_o be_v not_o priest_n may_v read_v prayer_n and_o so_o perhaps_o he_o may_v be_v then_o read_v the_o collect_v but_o then_o again_o she_o say_v there_o be_v a_o child_n christen_v in_o the_o house_n and_o no_o one_o there_o but_o mr._n somerset_n and_o his_o wife_n mr._n latchet_n and_o his_o wife_n and_o mr._n kerne_n to_o do_v it_o she_o do_v not_o see_v he_o christen_v it_o and_o it_o be_v true_a likewise_o what_o he_o say_v that_o in_o their_o church_n they_o allow_v other_o as_o midwife_n to_o christen_v in_o

then_o that_o be_v answer_v so_o that_o if_o you_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v christen_v the_o child_n there_o be_v two_o witness_n against_o he_o i_o must_v leave_v it_o with_o you_o as_o a_o

you_o believe_v upon_o the_o woman_n hear_v his_o voice_n that_o he_o do_v say_v mass_n or_o do_v christen_v for_o i_o must_v confess_v she_o say_v she_o do_v not_o see_v he_o christen_v than_o you_o
