pope_n have_v be_v since_o saint_n peter_n and_o how_o the_o pope_n come_v to_o change_v their_o name_n also_o by_o who_o they_o use_v to_o have_v be_v choose_v one_o of_o the_o most_o excellent_a

in_o which_o julius_n the_o three_o govern_v among_o which_o there_o have_v be_v many_o martyr_n most_o excellent_a saint_n and_o learned_a doctor_n yet_o nevertheless_o it_o be_v not_o without_o great_a admiration_n and_o a_o consicieration_n of_o great_a mystery_n that_o none_o of_o they_o govern_v so_o long_a time_n as_o st._n peter_n do_v there_o for_o it_o have_v please_v god_n as_o he_o

that_o i_o take_v notice_n of_o in_o read_v the_o life_n of_o the_o pope_n that_o be_v that_o since_o saint_n peter_n to_o this_o very_a time_n i_o find_v not_o one_o that_o in_o change_v of_o his_o
