that_o the_o truth_n thereof_o be_v to_o be_v search_v and_o sist_v out_o by_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n &_o sharpness_n of_o argument_n and_o that_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n of_o faith_n as_o they_o

in_o his_o temporal_a jurisdiction_n or_o when_o they_o do_v offend_v against_o god_n or_o man_n or_o otherwise_o abuse_v their_o office_n that_o he_o may_v in_o any_o sort_n abrogate_v their_o

that_o it_o be_v evident_o false_a that_o the_o pope_n have_v authority_n and_o rule_n over_o king_n and_o prince_n it_o be_v certain_a even_o by_o this_o that_o it_o be_v a_o absurd_a thing_n and_o
