question_n of_o the_o church_n be_v so_o intricate_a and_o uncertain_a among_o the_o papist_n themselves_o that_o although_o they_o hold_v this_o as_o a_o principle_n that_o the_o church_n can_v not_o

nothing_o to_o build_v upon_o so_o that_o when_o they_o have_v prate_v never_o so_o long_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n the_o end_n of_o all_o the_o talk_n come_v to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o church_n be_v not_o all_o the_o faithful_a but_o the_o general_a council_n only_o the_o council_n be_v not_o all_o the_o prelate_n but_o the_o pope_n only_o without_o who_o they_o can_v
