schism_n be_v for_o just_a little_a or_o nothing_o and_o so_o be_v every_o schism_n that_o be_v proper_o so_o call_v the_o separation_n be_v as_o the_o cause_n be_v when_o the_o cause_n be_v weighty_a and_o just_a the_o separation_n be_v innocent_a when_o the_o cause_n be_v light_a and_o inconsiderable_a the_o separation_n be_v schism_n schismatic_n be_v but_o tanquam_fw-la paleae_fw-la as_o
