with_o no_o other_o than_o laughter_n for_o it_o be_v as_o if_o you_o shall_v say_v the_o crow_n be_v black_a after_o a_o white_a manner_n or_o that_o the_o world_n be_v square_a after_o a_o round_a

yet_o you_o say_v that_o in_o the_o sacrament_n the_o accident_n of_o bread_n be_v in_o no_o subject_n but_o for_o a_o accident_n to_o be_v and_o not_o to_o be_v be_v a_o contradiction_n for_o not_o
