up_o work_v of_o reformation_n can_v be_v parellele_v or_o stand_v worthy_a to_o come_v in_o competition_n which_o affirm_v this_o government_n not_o to_o be_v nova_fw-la institutionis_fw-la sed_fw-la antiqui_fw-la moris_fw-la of_o new_a institution_n but_o of_o ancient_a custom_n nay_o &_o the_o same_o council_n decree_v that_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v two_o bishop_n in_o one_o city_n but_o this_o change_n with_o we_o to_o day_n be_v nothing_o to_o be_v admire_v to_o see_v man_n to_o contemn_v yea_o condemn_v all_o antiquity_n who_o love_v only_a novation_n and_o dote_v upon_o novelty_n nobilitat_fw-la novitas_fw-la quod_fw-la damnat_fw-la saepe_fw-la vetustas_fw-la i_o can_v think_v that_o some_o respect_n be_v to_o be_v defer_v to_o the_o testimony_n of_o pious_o learned_a calvin_n a_o witness_n of_o old_a with_o the_o best_a of_o this_o stamp_n of_o presbyterian_o or_o disciplinarian_o omni_fw-la exceptione_n major_a now_o he_o in_o the_o four_o book_n of_o his_o institution_n sect_n 1._o set_v down_o these_o express_a word_n it_o shall_v be_v profitable_a in_o these_o thing_n to_o consider_v the_o form_n of_o the_o old_a church_n which_o shall_v represent_v to_o our_o eye_n a_o certain_a image_n of_o god_n institution_n for_o although_o the_o bishop_n of_o these_o tim_n do_v set_v forth_o many_o canon_n wherein_o they_o seem_v to_o express_v more_o than_o be_v express_v in_o holy_a scripture_n yet_o they_o with_o such_o heedfulness_n frame_v all_o their_o order_n after_o the_o only_a rule_n of_o god_n word_n that_o a_o man_n may_v easis_o see_v in_o this_o behalf_n that_o they_o have_v nothing_o dissagree_v from_o god_n word_n and_o straight_o after_o subjoine_n thaet_n out_o of_o a_o sincere_a zeal_n they_o endeavour_v to_o preserve_v god_n institution_n and_o that_o they_o swarve_v not_o much_o from_o it_o nay_o and_o straight_o again_o in_o the_o 2._o sect_n he_o subjoine_v that_o in_o every_o city_n they_o elect_v or_o choose_v out_o of_o their_o own_o number_n one_o man_n to_o who_o they_o give_v special_o the_o title_n of_o bishop_n lest_o from_o a_o equality_n as_o it_o usual_o fall_v out_o dissension_n shall_v grow_v and_o

angelo_n cujusque_fw-la ecclesiae_fw-la to_o the_o angel_n of_o each_o church_n singular_o i_o know_v that_o our_o reformer_n will_v not_o have_v that_o to_o be_v deny_v of_o the_o rest_n quod_fw-la

of_o these_o church_n more_o presbyter_n or_o minister_n than_o one_o as_o may_v be_v instance_a from_o that_o of_o ephesus_n this_o interpretation_n must_v needs_o fall_v of_o will_n which_o render_v the_o word_n per_fw-la ministrum_fw-la in_o the_o singular_a number_n only_o for_o thus_o it_o shall_v follow_v that_o there_o shall_v have_v be_v but_o one_o presbyter_n or_o minister_n in_o each_o church_n again_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n if_o all_o the_o prebyter_n or_o minister_n in_o common_a shall_v or_o be_v here_o to_o be_v understand_v under_o this_o name_n of_o angel_n why_o do_v we_o offer_v violence_n to_o s._n johns_n word_n by_o the_o change_n of_o the_o number_n wherefore_o be_v it_o that_o he_o still_o direct_v his_o speech_n to_o one_o nay_o and_o if_o the_o speech_n stand_v direct_v to_o the_o ministry_n in_o common_a how_o can_v it_o be_v cognosce_v to_o who_o it_o be_v singular_o thus_o direct_v again_o if_o this_o one_o stand_v not_o instruct_v with_o some_o power_n over_o the_o rest_n but_o all_o in_o common_a partooke_v of_o alike_o power_n with_o he_o how_o be_v he_o thus_o singular_o entitle_v above_o the_o rest_n and_o which_o be_v more_o how_o be_v the_o faultinesse_n of_o all_o in_o common_a impute_v singular_o to_o he_o marlorat_n on_o the_o 2_o of_o the_o revel_n jump_v here_o in_o judgement_n while_o he_o say_v most_o pertinent_o to_o this_o purpose_n non_fw-la populum_fw-la aggreditur_fw-la leanne_n sed_fw-la principem_fw-la cleriutique_fw-la episcopum_fw-la nay_o and_o hitherto_o beza_n in_o his_o annotation_n on_o the_o 3_o of_o the_o

this_o angel_n have_v a_o prostasie_n preseance_n presidence_n and_o pre-eminence_n above_o his_o fellow-minister_n but_o i_o hear_v some_o reply_n here_o that_o if_o this_o prostasie_n be_v of_o this_o kind_n it_o be_v only_o over_o the_o common_a flock_n and_o not_o of_o power_n and_o authority_n over_o his_o fellow-minister_n answ_n dato_n non_fw-la concesso_fw-la give_v but_o not_o grant_v that_o this_o prostasie_n or_o preseance_n be_v only_o over_o the_o flock_n yet_o it_o remain_v that_o it_o be_v a_o prostasie_n of_o power_n else_o how_o can_v he_o have_v excerce_v any_o authority_n over_o they_o nay_o but_o he_o be_v command_v to_o exerce_fw-la it_z even_o against_o fellow-minister_n or_o preach_a elder_n yea_o and_o be_v commend_v from_o hence_o that_o he_o take_v order_n with_o they_o who_o call_v themselves_o apostles_n but_o be_v not_o &_o find_v they_o liar_n revel_v 2.2_o i_o hear_v again_o some_o except_v against_o this_o truth_n though_o so_o clear_o and_o full_o vindicate_v and_o assert_v from_o off_o of_o these_o passage_n math._n 20.25.26.27_o and_o i._o pet._n 5.2.3_o where_o christ_n prohibit_v his_o apostle_n to_o exerce_fw-la such_o dominion_n as_o do_v reges_a terrae_fw-la or_o magnates_fw-la and_o where_o peter_n warn_v the_o elder_n so_o to_o feed_v the_o flock_n of_o god_n as_o not_o domineir_a over_o the_o lord_n inheritance_n but_o
