and_o so_o undoubted_o they_o be_v provide_v the_o decision_n of_o that_o council_n approve_v by_o the_o the_o pope_n be_v false_a 3._o here_o also_o be_v demonstrate_v the_o fullness_n of_o that_o

it_o appear_v how_o absurd_o r._n h._n and_o other_o romanist_n assert_v that_o none_o can_v be_v sufficient_a judge_n of_o the_o misarguing_n of_o council_n unless_o it_o be_v some_o follow_a
