you_o may_v quit_v a_o opinion_n which_o you_o know_v to_o be_v true_a that_o be_v a_o mere_a madness_n no_o probability_n can_v excuse_v you_o against_o a_o know_a truth_n but_o the_o whole_a

to_o the_o second_o consequence_n which_o i_o say_v follow_v if_o it_o be_v allow_v that_o these_o factum_n be_v valid_a and_o legal_a to_o wit_n that_o the_o the_o curez_n think_v that_o these_o

matter_n in_o which_o they_o give_v their_o censure_n they_o bring_v no_o reason_n nor_o cite_v no_o authority_n for_o my_o part_n i_o shall_v rather_o believe_v one_o learned_a author_n who_o have_v join_v long_a experience_n with_o solid_a study_n than_o forty_o unlearned_a man_n either_o curez_n or_o jesuit_n or_o other_o which_o i_o do_v not_o say_v to_o vilify_v the_o curez_n but_o to_o

they_o do_v not_o cite_v navarre_n but_o some_o jesuit_n and_o i_o tell_v they_o i_o will_v soon_o believe_v navarre_n alone_o than_o a_o hundred_o such_o as_o never_o teach_v divinity_n never_o
