the_o title_n of_o the_o church_n may_v discern_v the_o upright_o from_o the_o bastard_n in_o that_o same_o kind_n so_o as_o your_o objection_n of_o heathen_a carriage_n in_o this_o case_n be_v

and_o if_o no_o more_o be_v to_o lead_v you_o to_o know_v that_o holiness_n in_o this_o kind_n can_v be_v no_o mark_n this_o alone_z may_v tell_v it_o you_o that_o your_o own_o man_n alway_n in_o
