church_n have_v great_a reason_n to_o understand_v they_o proper_o 2._o because_o now_o just_a upon_o our_o lord_n passion_n it_o be_v the_o time_n for_o figure_n and_o shadow_n to_o vanish_v and_o

that_o it_o may_v be_v right_o execute_v aught_o to_o be_v promulge_v in_o a_o manner_n very_o intelligible_a 4._o our_o lord_n be_v near_o his_o death_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o time_n to_o
