that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o power_n give_v to_o the_o priest_n as_o be_v claim_v by_o they_o from_o those_o word_n and_o 2._o that_o therefore_o they_o can_v be_v understand_v in_o no_o other_o

into_o transgression_n either_o for_o life_n or_o death_n according_a as_o they_o shall_v judge_v fit_v and_o therefore_o call_v all_o such_o to_o their_o tribunal_n tell_v they_o that_o christ_n

be_v again_o reconcile_v unto_o god._n and_o therefore_o they_o make_v their_o sentence_n of_o absolution_n to_o be_v that_o very_a act_n whereby_o the_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o take_v from_o god_n that_o prerogative_n which_o he_o have_v reserve_v to_o himself_o alone_o for_o 25._o it_o be_v he_o only_o that_o blot_v out_o transgression_n and_o 18._o none_o other_o be_v a_o god_n like_o he_o
