these_o but_o willing_o submit_v themselves_o to_o the_o censure_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n and_o yet_o the_o minister_n as_o though_o it_o be_v some_o fundamental_a point_n note_v here_o very_o grave_o out_o of_o josephus_n that_o the_o one_o opinion_n be_v now_o more_o common_a in_o the_o school_n than_o the_o other_o and_o out_o of_o that_o by_o main_a dexterity_n of_o learning_n infer_v

have_v it_o think_v or_o else_o he_o say_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n the_o second_o school_n question_n though_o somewhat_o great_a be_v from_o whence_o it_o come_v that_o some_o sin_n be_v mortal_a some_o venial_a whether_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o sin_n themselves_o or_o from_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n the_o common_a opinion_n most_o receive_v and_o most_o sound_a be_v that_o some_o sin_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v small_a or_o venial_a other_o great_a and_o mortal_a bishop_n fisher_n and_o some_o four_o other_o allege_v by_o bell_n think_v that_o all_o sin_n of_o
