a_o nice_a young_a man_n that_o when_o felix_n be_v make_v pope_n he_o be_v above_o fifty_o year_n old_a and_o when_o felix_n die_v to_o who_o he_o have_v constant_o adhere_v he_o be_v above_o sixty_o

follow_v this_o be_v plain_a from_o the_o express_a word_n of_o the_o presbyter_n marcellinus_n and_o faustinus_n i_o need_v not_o add_v any_o thing_n to_o consute_n that_o story_n which_o we_o find_v in_o two_o fabulous_a life_n of_o pope_n damasus_n that_o when_o pope_n liberius_n be_v banish_v he_o constitute_v our_o damasus_n his_o vicar_n to_o supply_v his_o place_n in_o his_o absence_n and_o that_o he_o according_o do_v so_o till_o liberius_n be_v restore_v if_o that_o be_v true_a than_o he_o do_v not_o adhere_v to_o pope_n felix_n but_o it_o need_v but_o very_o little_a judgement_n be_v there_o no_o good_a authority_n for_o what_o we_o have_v here_o lay_v down_o to_o discover_v the_o falseness_n of_o that_o monkish_a story_n and_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o show_v how_o little_a the_o

add_v that_o though_o our_o author_n when_o they_o speak_v of_o the_o people_n aversion_n to_o felix_n be_v wont_a to_o make_v use_n of_o general_a term_n and_o tell_v we_o that_o all_o the_o people_n

for_o he_o as_o that_o much_o blood_n be_v spill_v this_o schism_n and_o contention_n seem_v to_o have_v proceed_v partly_o from_o some_o former_a heat_n and_o siding_n of_o the_o people_n i_o know_v that_o the_o presbyter_n marcellinus_n and_o faustinus_n say_v that_o damasus_n have_v bribe_v the_o people_n with_o a_o great_a sum_n of_o money_n but_o that_o be_v only_o a_o malicious_a
