soever_o have_v but_o mean_o profit_v in_o the_o gospel_n be_v not_o ignorant_a but_o that_o thing_n be_v none_o other_o than_o plain_n sacrilege_n &_o abomination_n which_o the_o priest_n do_v

davyd_v speak_v for_o to_o say_v with_o the_o wicked_a let_v we_o do_v hardly_o that_o that_o like_v we_o /_o for_o god_n see_v we_o not_o 14._o psal_n 14._o but_o these_o man_n do_v allege_v it_o

it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o stop_v their_o mouth_n now_o of_o high_a mass_n it_o seem_v to_o many_o that_o it_o have_v a_o better_a cloak_n &_o a_o more_o apparent_a shine_n for_o all_o though_o say_v
