place_n of_o those_o who_o be_v marry_v and_o already_o out_o of_o hope_n they_o shall_v keep_v their_o wife_n and_o bishopric_n together_o in_o the_o catholic_a religion_n his_o holiness_n take_v

he_o be_v deceive_v or_o not_o i_o will_v not_o judge_v only_o this_o i_o may_v say_v confident_o if_o he_o speak_v false_o of_o bishop_n of_o his_o time_n he_o have_v be_v a_o oracle_n of_o truth_n concerning_o the_o bishop_n of_o our_o time_n as_o may_v easy_o appear_v to_o those_o who_o will_v inform_v themselves_o but_o slender_o of_o their_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n so_o well_o know_v

do_v ever_o any_o of_o that_o cruel_a society_n hitherto_o public_o disapprove_v either_o by_o word_n or_o write_v the_o barbarous_a rage_n of_o their_o tigerlike_a fellow_n the_o misery_n of_o

to_o this_o day_n but_o for_o all_o this_o some_o will_v not_o spare_v to_o aver_v that_o divers_a of_o the_o bishop_n have_v never_o any_o hand_n in_o those_o business_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a

by_o lamentable_a example_n to_o the_o infinite_a damage_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n the_o sympathy_n and_o affinity_n of_o those_o man_n with_o our_o bishop_n be_v such_o as_o i_o conceive_v

do_v against_o bishop_n as_o do_v against_o their_o head_n the_o pope_n and_o they_o but_o this_o have_v be_v so_o cunning_o perform_v as_o few_o can_v heretofore_o perceive_v it_o whilst_o at_o
