wherefore_o we_o must_v be_v liable_a to_o some_o punishment_n for_o every_o idle_a word_n so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n of_o full_a age_n convert_v from_o idolatry_n be_v baptize_v and_o by_o and_o by_o

not_o in_o hell_n because_o the_o sin_n be_v forgive_v but_o yet_o in_o the_o prison_n of_o purgatory_n out_o of_o which_o he_o shall_v not_o go_v until_o he_o have_v pay_v the_o last_o farthing_n 7._o but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v how_o this_o doctrine_n agree_v with_o the_o say_n of_o god_n when_o the_o wicked_a man_n shall_v be_v convert_v from_o his_o impiety_n i_o will_v not_o

for_o one_o pound_n a_o million_o of_o time_n double_v will_v come_v to_o be_v a_o million_o but_o a_o purgatory_n even_o of_o a_o million_o of_o year_n though_o it_o shall_v be_v never_o so_o often_o
