horseman_n thereof_o thus_o you_o see_v title_n of_o honour_n lord_n master_n father_n be_v both_o give_v and_o receive_v by_o holy_a man_n and_o this_o without_o any_o reproof_n or_o check_n of_o

now_o christ_n certain_o will_v not_o have_v name_v father_n and_o mother_n nor_o have_v approve_v of_o those_o title_n and_o that_o relation_n if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v lawful_a and_o the_o same_o
