because_o in_o the_o saxon_a time_n law_n and_o constitution_n ecclesiastical_a have_v the_o confirmation_n of_o peer_n and_o sometime_o of_o the_o people_n to_o which_o great_a counsel_n our_o

of_o those_o great_a counsel_n as_o he_o say_v they_o do_v it_o be_v because_o that_o ancient_o the_o procurator_n of_o the_o clergy_n not_o the_o bishop_n only_o have_v their_o place_n in_o parliament_n though_o neither_o peer_n nor_o people_n vote_v in_o the_o convocation_n which_o be_v so_o it_o be_v not_o much_o to_o be_v admire_v that_o there_o be_v some_o check_v as_o be_v say_v
