further_o let_v we_o mark_v the_o inconsistency_n of_o these_o man_n notwithstanding_o there_o be_v no_o precept_n for_o this_o sacrament_n notwithstanding_o it_o be_v a_o mere_a ceremonial_a rite_n notwithstanding_o it_o be_v abolish_v for_o all_o this_o they_o hold_v and_o maintain_v yet_o they_o defend_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o retain_v it_o it_o may_v be_v use_v they_o say_v in_o the_o
