rome_n be_v not_o derive_v in_o the_o least_o from_o canonical_a scripture_n but_o in_o whole_a and_o in_o part_n from_o the_o canon_n of_o trent_n *_o 13_o without_o which_o no_o man_n can_v be_v save_v this_o evident_o show_v that_o this_o profession_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o make_v as_o a_o mean_n of_o uniformity_n only_o as_o be_v the_o article_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o
