according_a to_o the_o number_n of_o their_o arch_n and_o lord_n bishop_n and_o so_o there_o be_v about_o 26._o church_n comprehend_v all_o within_o their_o several_a diocese_n hither_o also_o i_o

the_o number_n of_o the_o parish_n assembly_n of_o which_o all_o stand_v member_n and_o so_o there_o be_v many_o thousand_o church_n in_o the_o land_n hitherto_o of_o the_o church_n the_o ministry_n
