the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a it_o follow_v well_o that_o in_o such_o a_o exposition_n they_o go_v far_o astray_o and_o wander_v very_o much_o from_o the_o analogy_n &_o proportion_n of_o faith_n

certain_a kind_n of_o idolatry_n which_o be_v detestable_a and_o full_a of_o ungodliness_n for_o that_o i_o may_v speak_v nothing_o of_o the_o five_o sacrament_n which_o they_o have_v add_v of_o

to_o the_o end_n that_o man_n may_v hold_v &_o take_v they_o for_o right_a and_o certain_a mark_n of_o the_o true_a church_n &_o that_o we_o be_v certain_a and_o it_o manifest_o appear_v that_o the_o

that_o these_o mark_n do_v agree_v unto_o they_o and_o their_o church_n as_o well_o as_o unto_o us._n but_o we_o will_v dispute_v more_o large_o in_o a_o other_o chapter_n of_o this_o matter_n to_o
