so_o far_o engage_v they_o in_o the_o christian_a religion_n that_o all_o the_o philosophical_a deceit_n of_o man_n shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o turn_v they_o from_o it_o and_o where_o be_v so_o

that_o you_o have_v mind_v they_o but_o a_o little_a because_o you_o otherwise_o will_v have_v say_v more_o to_o the_o purpose_n than_o i_o do_v perceive_v you_o have_v do_v but_o 2_o i_o have_v not_o
