that_o he_o resemble_v man_n by_o a_o certain_a imaginary_a act_n and_o conversation_n but_o the_o catholic_a faith_n do_v so_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v make_v man_n that_o he_o

that_o we_o may_v especial_o speak_v of_o they_o be_v man_n by_o imitate_v but_o by_o subsist_v in_o like_a manner_n paul_n do_v not_o counterfeit_v a_o apostle_n or_o resemble_v paul_n but_o he_o

that_o his_o substance_n continue_v unchangeable_a and_o by_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o perfect_a man_n he_o may_v himself_o be_v flesh_n a_o man_n the_o person_n of_o a_o man_n not_o
