sin_n but_o no_o judge_n can_v exercise_v judicature_n unless_o they_o know_v and_o understand_v the_o cause_n and_o the_o priest_n must_v know_v all_o the_o particular_a sin_n and_o their_o

especial_o in_o a_o person_n of_o bad_a memory_n your_o judge_n can_v pass_v sentence_n without_o know_v the_o particular_a cause_n and_o therefore_o such_o knowledge_n be_v not_o necessary_a to_o his_o give_a absolution_n moreover_o tell_v i_o i_o pray_v you_o may_v not_o a_o priest_n absolve_v he_o from_o his_o sin_n who_o christ_n have_v absolve_v pop._n yes_o doubtless_o prot._n and_o be_v not_o every_o priest_n bind_v to_o believe_v that_o christ_n have_v absolve_v every_o person_n that_o be_v true_o penitent_a pop._n there_o be_v no_o question_n of_o that_o prot._n suppose_v a_o

then_o he_o may_v without_o any_o more_o ado_n upon_o his_o desire_n absolve_v he_o because_o it_o appear_v that_o christ_n have_v absolve_v he_o it_o be_v not_o at_o all_o necessary_a to_o a_o
