for_o the_o time_n of_o persecution_n before_o temporal_a prince_n receive_v our_o faith_n as_o they_o be_v excellent_a time_n for_o doctrine_n and_o manner_n so_o they_o be_v unproper_a and_o

himself_o of_o a_o extraordinary_a spirit_n be_v nevertheless_o not_o able_a to_o suffice_v and_o hold_v out_o in_o person_n to_o judge_v the_o people_n but_o do_v by_o the_o advice_n of_o jethro_n

their_o judge_n stand_v indifferent_a between_o they_o and_o the_o subject_a but_o in_o the_o case_n of_o bishop_n none_o of_o these_o reason_n hold_v for_o first_o their_o office_n be_v elective_a and_o for_o life_n and_o not_o patrimonial_a or_o hereditary_a a_o office_n mere_o of_o confidence_n science_n and_o qualification_n and_o for_o the_o second_o reason_n it_o be_v true_a that_o their_o jurisdiction_n be_v ample_a and_o spacious_a and_o that_o their_o time_n be_v to_o be_v divide_v between_o the_o labour_n as_o well_o in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n as_o in_o government_n and_o

person_n which_o now_o hold_v the_o place_n but_o it_o be_v ever_o so_o though_o more_o or_o less_o burdenous_a to_o the_o suitor_n as_o the_o chanceller_n be_v more_o or_o less_o able_a to_o give_v
