you_o oppose_v amb._n &_o aug._n i_o can_v oppose_v 5._o ignatius_n and_o tertullian_n whereof_o the_o one_o say_v it_o be_v nefas_fw-la a_o detestable_a thing_n to_o fast_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n

of_o the_o apostle_n it_o may_v appear_v by_o that_o which_o he_o write_v say_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n which_o the_o whole_a church_n hold_v and_o therefore_o be_v well_o believe_v to_o be_v
