the_o church_n of_o god_n the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n send_v he_o this_o answer_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o letter_n at_o large_a you_o have_v receive_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n you_o have_v set_v

this_o christ_n do_v so_o exact_o that_o there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o the_o pin_n of_o the_o tabernacle_n leave_v for_o we_o so_o then_o for_o the_o pattern_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o new_a
