and_o election_n be_v divers_a member_n of_o one_o whole_a which_o be_v the_o place_n of_o the_o pastor_n in_o his_o church_n and_o one_o member_n can_v not_o be_v verify_v of_o a_o other_o as_z you_o

for_o woman_n to_o minister_v baptism_n for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n doubt_v but_o that_o the_o baptism_n which_o be_v minister_v by_o a_o heretical_a minister_n be_v effectual_a and_o yet_o i_o

this_o abuse_n and_o his_o reason_n be_v because_o s_n paul_n speak_v there_o against_o those_o that_o by_o feign_a excuse_n seek_v to_o defraud_v the_o pastor_n of_o his_o live_a as_o who_o shall_v
