all_o the_o papist_n keep_v for_o she_o when_o alas_o i_o defy_v they_o all_o together_o to_o prove_v any_o of_o those_o day_n to_o be_v the_o day_n which_o they_o keep_v it_o for_o so_o than_o they_o

of_o the_o live_n and_o of_o the_o dead_a but_o we_o abhor_v such_o a_o thing_n at_o least_o pretend_v to_o do_v so_o we_o say_v we_o abolish_v the_o thing_n and_o yet_o retain_v the_o name_n the_o
