therefore_o one_o pastor_n must_v be_v superior_a unto_o a_o other_o pastor_n and_o that_o he_o be_v superior_a he_o prove_v because_o he_o have_v authority_n to_o ordain_v pastor_n so_o that_o the_o

that_z in_o his_o garden_n he_o shall_v never_o find_v the_o herb_n that_o will_v heal_v he_o and_o because_o that_o the_o scripture_n when_o they_o make_v for_o our_o cause_n receive_v this_o

that_o action_n and_o be_v the_o first_o in_o it_o so_o also_o be_v the_o depose_n or_o other_o censure_n of_o they_o and_o that_o for_o as_o much_o as_o he_o write_v his_o epistle_n unto_o timothe_n

which_o he_o have_v more_o than_o the_o bishop_n in_o the_o council_n of_o antioch_n it_o appear_v that_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o metropolitan_a 9_o seat_n call_v synod_n &_o propound_v the_o
