to_o dispose_v the_o priesthood_n and_o discipline_n of_o the_o church_n in_o convenient_a order_n and_o to_o keep_v they_o when_o they_o be_v order_v for_o god_n have_v sort_v these_o office_n

to_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o public_a welfare_n of_o the_o common_a weal_n or_o of_o the_o happy_a state_n of_o their_o realm_n but_o it_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o the_o diligent_a
