to_o these_o determination_n i_o have_v have_v occasion_n to_o consider_v some_o particular_n which_o i_o will_v purpose_v for_o that_o i_o be_v make_v cautious_a thereof_o by_o those_o who_o

of_o equivocation_n interpose_v in_o that_o they_o do_v not_o distinguish_v the_o preeminence_n whereby_o sacred_a theology_n merit_v the_o title_n of_o queen_n for_o it_o may_v be_v call_v so_o either_o because_o that_o that_o which_o be_v teach_v by_o all_o the_o other_o science_n be_v find_v to_o be_v comprise_v and_o demonstrate_v in_o it_o but_o with_o more_o excellent_a mean_n and_o

authority_n of_o queen_n belong_v to_o theology_n in_o the_o first_o sense_n i_o think_v that_o no_o theologer_n will_v affirm_v that_o have_v but_o any_o insight_n into_o the_o other_o science_n of_o which_o there_o be_v none_o as_o i_o believe_v that_o will_v say_v that_o geometry_n astronomy_n music_n and_o medicine_n be_v much_o more_o excellent_o and_o exact_o contain_v in_o the_o sacred_a
