better_a form_n but_o christ_n will_v have_v we_o also_o to_o descend_v to_o the_o special_n &_o to_o ask_v particular_a benefit_n according_a to_o our_o necessity_n for_o that_o form_n prescribe_v by_o christ_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o set_n or_o course_n of_o certain_a head_n or_o general_n whereunto_o all_o benefit_n as_o well_o corporal_a as_o spiritual_a may_v be_v refer_v and_o when_o christ_n will_v we_o to_o desire_v the_o general_n he_o will_v we_o also_o to_o desire_v the_o special_n and_o further_a also_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v here_o put_v in_o general_a we_o be_v in_o like_a manner_n for_o this_o cause_n to_o declare_v in_o special_a that_o we_o may_v be_v lead_v into_o a_o consideration_n of_o our_o necessity_n &_o to_o a_o desire_n of_o make_v our_o
