a._n ans_fw-fr i_o think_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o people_n both_o in_o parish_n and_o in_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n they_o take_v up_o their_o religion_n by_o tradition_n from_o the_o elder_n

be_v this_o the_o pharisee_n urge_v the_o people_n for_o to_o observe_v the_o tradition_n of_o the_o elder_n and_o therefore_o they_o come_v to_o christ_n for_o to_o know_v why_o his_o disciple_n do_v

word_n we_o all_o seem_v to_o be_v zealous_a for_o god_n and_o the_o most_o man_n strive_v mighty_o for_o a_o form_n of_o religion_n but_o may_v not_o one_o ask_v where_o be_v the_o power_n of_o
