i_o to_o who_o they_o be_v unpossible_a &_o to_o who_o they_o be_v uncredible_a see_v they_o father_v they_o not_o but_o upon_o god_n the_o maker_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o who_o all_o thing_n be_v alike_o easy_a the_o poet_n say_v that_o jupiter_n thunder_v above_o and_o that_o neptune_n turmoyl_v the_o sea_n and_o roll_v up_o the_o earth_n and_o we_o know_v that_o both_o jupiter_n and_o neptune_n be_v man_n as_o we_o be_v and_o therefore_o we_o say_v just_o that_o they_o report_v fable_n for_o they_o father_n thing_n upon_o man_n which_o be_v above_o the_o ability_n of_o man_n to_o do_v and_o which_o surmount_v the_o power_n of_o all_o creature_n but_o when_o thing_n that_o be_v unpossible_a to_o creature_n be_v report_v of_o god_n who_o power_n be_v infinite_a although_o man_n doubt_v whether_o they_o be_v do_v or_o no_o yet_o can_v they_o not_o deny_v but_o that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v they_o and_o if_o their_o suspect_v of_o they_o be_v because_o they_o read_v the_o
