by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o preserve_v in_o the_o catholic_n church_n by_o a_o continual_a succession_n with_o equal_a piety_n of_o affection_n and_o reverence_n as_o the_o proof_n of_o holy_a

3._o the_o council_n do_v not_o here_o speak_v of_o a_o traditionary_a sense_n of_o scripture_n but_o of_o a_o distinct_a rule_n of_o faith_n from_o the_o scripture_n for_o of_o that_o it_o speak_v

it_o reckon_v they_o up_o with_o the_o canonical_a book_n for_o so_o the_o canon_n conclude_v we_o have_v receive_v from_o our_o father_n that_o these_o book_n be_v to_o be_v read_v in_o church_n

3._o when_o they_o come_v to_o be_v distinguish_v from_o apocryphal_a write_n whence_o those_o who_o do_v not_o consider_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o conclude_v they_o to_o have_v be_v canonical_a but_o
