the_o first_o which_o he_o give_v in_o his_o newyearesguifte_a be_v in_o effect_n this_o it_o be_v but_o a_o probable_a opinion_n that_o the_o pope_n can_v depose_v a_o prince_n and_o so_o after_o

because_o better_a be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o possessor_n wherefore_o as_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o swear_v that_o it_o be_v heretical_a to_o say_v that_o a_o man_n may_v steal_v or_o kill_v his_o neightbour_n by_o private_a authority_n and_o not_o in_o his_o own_o defence_n or_o thrust_v he_o out_o of_o his_o own_o house_n so_o it_o be_v as_o lawful_a to_o swear_v that_o it_o be_v
