i_o send_v he_o away_o very_o well_o satisfy_v for_o he_o come_v to_o chelsey_n on_o purpose_n to_o inquire_v of_o i_o whether_o what_o the_o priest_n have_v new_o and_o confident_o tell_v he_o be_v

any_o discourse_n with_o your_o highness_n of_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n you_o do_v serious_o affirm_v to_o i_o that_o never_o any_o priest_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v ever_o be_v

nor_o to_o he_o neither_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v i_o can_v believe_v that_o any_o thing_n of_o that_o kind_a have_v be_v as_o yet_o say_v to_o you_o at_o least_o not_o so_o as_o to_o make_v any_o

have_v do_v if_o there_o have_v be_v any_o such_o thing_n have_v oblige_v yourself_o by_o promise_n to_o do_v so_o and_o have_v have_v several_a opportunity_n of_o so_o do_v especial_o when_o you_o

and_o consequent_o that_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o my_o say_v any_o thing_n to_o you_o of_o it_o as_o if_o i_o have_v doubt_v whether_o you_o have_v or_o will_v keep_v your_o word_n with_o i_o

and_o particular_o by_o some_o of_o those_o who_o profession_n and_o office_n it_o be_v to_o defend_v the_o truth_n of_o our_o church_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v profess_v

by_o you_o and_o in_o this_o belief_n i_o be_o more_o and_o more_o confirm_v because_o you_o still_o join_v with_o we_o in_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n as_o have_v they_o daily_o by_o your_o

that_o will_v be_v not_o only_o a_o argument_n but_o almost_o a_o evidence_n that_o it_o be_v from_o some_o other_o motive_n rather_o than_o conscience_n because_o you_o do_v not_o all_o you_o may_v
