clergy_n man_n and_o especial_o the_o pope_n from_o subjection_n to_o temporal_a prince_n but_o the_o question_n betwixt_o i_o and_o card._n bellarmine_n be_v whether_o this_o manner_n of_o union_n

as_o i_o have_v now_o declare_v 4._o three_o i_o do_v also_o make_v no_o question_n but_o that_o as_o the_o world_n contain_v both_o christian_n and_o infidel_n and_o therefore_o consist_v of_o
