a_o advocate_n shall_v plead_v before_o a_o judge_n which_o understand_v for_o his_o client_n which_o be_v not_o able_a to_o understand_v the_o state_n of_o his_o own_o cause_n and_o business_n and_o

because_o the_o advocate_n plead_v alone_o but_o if_o the_o client_n shall_v join_v in_o plea_n with_o the_o advocate_n it_o be_v necessary_a also_o that_o the_o client_n shall_v understand_v because_o without_o understanding_n he_o can_v not_o plead_v and_o speak_v for_o himself_o but_o our_o parish_n church_n be_v ordain_v to_o this_o end_n that_o not_o only_o learned_a man_n shall_v

self_n and_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o court_n of_o earthly_a judge_n and_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n the_o people_n come_v not_o to_o the_o church_n only_o to_o be_v pray_v
