always_o but_o not_o at_o all_o way_n that_o be_v not_o at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o place_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o out_o of_o saint_n thomas_n of_o aquin_n in_o the_o say_v two_o

1._o first_o that_o there_o be_v no_o evil_a or_o harm_n do_v or_o say_v in_o the_o protestant_a church_n to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o any_o catholic_a soul_n that_o may_v not_o either_o be_v hinder_v

the_o truth_n for_o as_o saint_n augustine_n say_v doubt_n beget_v science_n which_o may_v be_v a_o occasion_n of_o sum_n fall_v from_o he_o which_o fear_v he_o be_v silent_a in_o doctrine_n and_o
