no_o it_o can_v be_v so_o imagine_v and_o therefore_o the_o presbyterian_o derive_v their_o mission_n extraordinary_o from_o god_n by_o the_o spirit_n well_o know_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o they_o to_o derive_v it_o ordinary_o by_o succession_n through_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n from_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o clear_a case_n that_o the_o pretend_a
