in_o the_o lord_n and_o as_o it_o be_v so_o that_o there_o be_v cause_n of_o jealousy_n that_o some_o woman_n will_v not_o continue_v chaste_a so_o there_o be_v cause_n of_o jealousy_n that_o some_o

not_o whereas_o the_o disciple_n of_o john_n fast_v often_o and_o why_o then_o shall_v church_n of_o different_a judgement_n in_o these_o respect_n be_v bind_v by_o authority_n all_o to_o rejoice_v or_o all_o to_o mourn_v and_o fast_o and_o pray_v at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o no_o more_o frequent_o but_o as_o all_o can_v agree_v so_o to_o humble_v themselves_o and_o how_o shall_v it_o choose_v but_o engage_v man_n to_o hypocrisy_n save_v only_o in_o case_n of_o some_o general_a judgement_n of_o which_o we_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o be_v sensible_a and_o affect_v with_o it_o and_o four_a and_o last_o as_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o particular_a man_n to_o be_v of_o the_o strict_a sect_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n such_o as_o be_v the_o pharisee_n so_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o
