prove_v the_o validity_n of_o ordination_n by_o presbyter_n i_o will_v put_v into_o this_o form_n either_o ordination_n by_o presbyter_n be_v valid_a or_o else_o something_o essential_a to_o ordination_n be_v want_v in_o ordination_n by_o presbyter_n but_o nothing_o essential_a to_o ordination_n be_v want_v in_o ordination_n by_o presbyter_n ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n the_o major_n be_v
