represent_v the_o whole_a catholic_a church_n and_o that_o all_o the_o individual_a member_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n at_o that_o time_n receive_v and_o acquiesce_v to_o its_o decree_n especial_o to_o that_o part_n of_o it_o which_o relate_v to_o our_o present_a purpose_n it_o be_v but_o just_a and_o reasonable_a we_o pay_v the_o same_o respect_n and_o deference_n to_o it_o now_o after_o have_v examine_v the_o authentic_a act_n of_o this_o council_n and_o consult_v all_o the_o at_o least_o famous_a historian_n and_o ecclesiastical_a writer_n of_o those_o time_n and_o even_o
