lawful_a if_o the_o succeed_a pope_n have_v approve_v of_o the_o same_o but_o now_o forsooth_o it_o shall_v be_v unlawful_a because_o the_o pope_n that_o be_v make_v by_o this_o council_n say_v not_o

and_o every_o one_o single_o may_v err_v for_o the_o same_o reason_n which_o we_o have_v show_v already_o do_v you_o therefore_o by_o the_o church_n understand_v a_o general_a council_n consist_v of_o

and_o whatsoever_o shall_v be_v decree_v therein_o in_o no_o wise_a he_o will_v say_v it_o ought_v to_o be_v lawful_o convocate_v by_o who_o say_v i_o he_o will_v say_v by_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n

yea_o contrary_a to_o the_o judgement_n and_o dignity_n of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n whether_o for_o no_o can_v it_o err_v therein_o here_o he_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v whole_o at_o a_o loss_n for_o it_o be_v know_v that_o not_o only_o diverse_a ancient_a council_n both_o particular_a and_o general_n have_v past_a decree_n against_o his_o mind_n and_o which_o do_v diminish_v the_o pope_n
