30_o second_o i_o do_v also_o willing_o grant_v that_o among_o the_o paynim_n and_o ancient_a roman_n not_o only_o the_o chief_a bishop_n who_o be_v call_v pontifex_n maximus_n and_o have_v the_o

both_o spiritual_a and_o also_o temporal_a not_o as_o they_o be_v temporal_a but_o as_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o virtue_n or_o sin_n therein_o contain_v they_o become_v spiritual_a because_o the_o

of_o nature_n because_o they_o have_v no_o other_o light_n to_o guide_v they_o but_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n hold_v it_o to_o be_v most_o conform_a to_o nature_n that_o religion_n shall_v be_v

to_o the_o soul_n earthly_a thing_n to_o heavenly_a man_n to_o angel_n and_o the_o like_a 4_o so_o albeit_o i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o their_o custom_n proceed_v from_o their_o municipal_a
