a_o enquiry_n into_o the_o reason_n for_o abrogate_a the_o test_n impose_v on_o all_o member_n of_o parliament_n offer_a by_o sa._n oxon._n when_o the_o cardinal_n in_o rome_n go_v abroad_o without_o

those_o nice_a regard_n that_o may_v be_v due_a to_o the_o dignity_n he_o bear_v and_o indeed_o when_o a_o man_n forget_v what_o he_o be_v himself_o it_o be_v very_o natural_a for_o other_o to_o do_v
