we_o assume_v and_o infer_v but_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v a_o particular_a church_n therefore_o it_o may_v err_v but_o that_o the_o catholic_a church_n take_v in_o the_o sense_n that_o our_o

church_n may_v err_v in_o matter_n circumstantial_a and_o ceremonial_a yet_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a speech_n to_o say_v that_o the_o general_a or_o catholic_a church_n or_o company_n of_o the_o

will_v they_o conclude_v from_o hence_o sure_o if_o any_o such_o thing_n it_o must_v be_v this_o therefore_o we_o may_v not_o make_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o father_n or_o whatsoever_o man_n in_o

i_o say_v that_o in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v necessity_n and_o decency_n if_o then_o he_o can_v preach_v naked_a but_o with_o the_o peril_n of_o his_o life_n he_o ought_v to_o refuse_v preach_v it_o be_v a_o case_n of_o necessity_n and_o mercy_n be_v better_a than_o sacrifice_n but_o if_o his_o life_n will_v consist_v with_o his_o naked_a preach_n he_o
