peaceful_o together_o in_o the_o unity_n of_o one_o church_n the_o minor_a of_o my_o argument_n be_v evident_a by_o the_o decree_n itself_o wherein_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o apostle_n to_o impose_v no_o other_o burden_n on_o they_o than_o that_o they_o shall_v astaine_v from_o those_o 3._o sort_n of_o meat_n and_o fornication_n which_o decree_n have_v be_v a_o
