as_o the_o bishop_n say_v the_o scripture_n make_v purgatory_n know_v to_o the_o church_n but_o unperfectlie_o yet_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o if_o god_n make_v purgatory_n know_v by_o the_o

moses_n the_o holy_a prophet_n of_o god_n than_o my_o lord_n our_o fisher_n though_o the_o pope_n canonize_a martyr_n thirdlie_o this_o bishop_n for_o this_o his_o doctrine_n must_v either_o come_v again_o to_o retract_v his_o opinion_n or_o else_o will_v he_o will_v he_o condemn_v the_o pope_n and_o church_n of_o rome_n this_o i_o will_v prove_v by_o a_o most_o plain_a and_o evident_a
