that_o the_o popish_a priest_n be_v the_o great_a malefactor_n in_o these_o notorious_a crime_n what_o if_o they_o be_v not_o only_o private_a whore_n master_n but_o also_o public_a maintainer_n of_o

what_o if_o the_o popish_a priest_n be_v worshipper_n of_o image_n and_o causer_n of_o they_o to_o be_v worship_v what_o if_o many_o of_o they_o be_v common_a drunkard_n and_o all_o of_o they_o
