be_v blasphemy_n and_o yet_o more_o to_o say_v it_o the_o reform_a church_n be_v not_o schismatical_a for_o have_v separate_v from_o the_o romish_a church_n as_o false_o they_o be_v accuse_v thereof_o

12._o in_o a_o word_n by_o such_o a_o separation_n the_o reform_a church_n do_v separate_v themselves_o only_o from_o a_o particular_a corrupt_a church_n 1._o for_o when_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v
