so_o direct_v as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v unless_o we_o have_v the_o science_n and_o rule_n of_o religion_n and_o because_o the_o right_a direction_n of_o our_o life_n to_o eternal_a beatitude_n be_v of_o great_a value_n and_o worth_n than_o our_o continuation_n in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o science_n of_o attain_v beatitude_n aught_o to_o be_v more_o clear_a unto_o we_o than_o the_o skill_n of_o guide_v ourselves_o in_o our_o corporal_a life_n wherefore_o see_v that_o we_o find_v religion_n be_v not_o now_o so_o clear_a and_o certain_a unto_o we_o as_o be_v the_o
