of_o his_o faith_n that_o both_o such_o council_n and_o himself_o do_v not_o err_v in_o it_o i_o answer_v 1_o that_o if_o what_o be_v suppose_v shall_v be_v grant_v yet_o still_o be_v such_o

to_o other_o point_n of_o their_o faith_n that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o christian_n to_o know_v that_o if_o necesiary_n they_o do_v not_o err_v in_o they_o though_o which_o in_o particular_a
