only_a lawgiver_n thus_o you_o will_v blear_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o ignorant_a to_o make_v they_o believe_v that_o the_o pope_n do_v make_v law_n as_o moses_n do_v but_o i_o will_v show_v a_o

to_o any_o part_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n nor_o to_o abrogate_v any_o of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o s._n paul_n say_v 1._o galath_n 1._o that_o if_o he_o or_o a_o angel_n from_o heaven_n

the_o law_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o dispense_v with_o the_o same_o to_o disannul_v what_o he_o will_v and_o which_o be_v most_o blasphemous_a of_o all_o to_o affirm_v that_o the_o holy_a

we_o know_v the_o pope_n be_v not_o lead_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o by_o the_o lie_a spirit_n of_o the_o devil_n because_o he_o have_v so_o flat_o tread_v down_o god_n word_n and_o bring_v in_o
