peter_n never_o have_v this_o authority_n i_o marvel_v much_o how_o the_o papist_n can_v possible_o convey_v that_o to_o the_o pope_n which_o his_o predecessor_n never_o have_v for_o they_o affirm_v

title_n be_v from_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o true_a apostle_n peter_n the_o humility_n of_o peter_n the_o divine_a exhortation_n of_o peter_n and_o the_o former_a commandment_n of_o christ_n to_o all_o the_o apostle_n do_v sufficient_o declare_v for_o neither_o can_v christ_n give_v that_o authority_n of_o primacy_n which_o himself_o forbid_v nor_o peter_n take_v that_o which_o be_v not_o give_v he_o and_o which_o he_o neither_o use_v nor_o so_o much_o as_o desire_v in_o affection_n neither_o consequent_o can_v the_o pope_n his_o pretend_a successor_n derive_v that_o unto_o he_o which_o never_o belong_v to_o his_o ancestor_n it_o can_v therefore_o be_v that_o the_o power_n of_o bind_v and_o lose_v shall_v signify_v the_o supremacy_n of_o earthly_a kingdom_n to_o set_v up_o and_o pull_v down_o who_o he_o listen_v for_o as_o have_v be_v already_o prove_v peter_n be_v so_o far_o from_o that_o arrogance_n that_o himself_o give_v a_o double_a charge_n to_o the_o contrary_a namely_o to_o fear_n god_n and_o to_o honour_v the_o king_n as_o one_o that_o be_v worthy_a to_o have_v the_o chief_a room_n for_o christ_n have_v teach_v peter_n and_o peter_n no_o doubt_n learn_v it_o that_o lordship_n and_o dominion_n belong_v unto_o the_o king_n of_o nation_n the_o power_n therefore_o of_o bind_v and_o lose_v be_v not_o commit_v to_o peter_n alone_o but_o to_o all_o the_o

be_v prove_v before_o that_o christ_n give_v the_o power_n of_o bind_v &_o lose_v to_o all_o the_o apostle_n and_o why_o at_o this_o time_n christ_n say_v unto_o peter_n that_o he_o will_v give_v to_o he_o the_o key_n by_o special_a name_n the_o reason_n be_v as_o appear_v by_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o text_n because_o when_o christ_n demand_v of_o his_o apostle_n who_o say_v you_o that_o i_o be_o simon_n peter_n answer_v thou_o be_v christ_n the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n for_o peter_n answer_v in_o the_o name_n of_o all_o the_o apostle_n and_o christ_n likewise_o give_v he_o the_o key_n in_o the_o name_n of_o all_o and_o so_o cyprian_a and_o augustine_n two_o of_o the_o father_n expound_v it_o that_o christ_n do_v it_o not_o for_o this_o purpose_n to_o prefer_v one_o man_n before_o a_o other_o but_o so_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n for_o so_o say_v cyprian_n that_o god_n in_o the_o person_n of_o one_o give_v the_o key_n to_o all_o to_o signify_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n augustine_n say_v when_o the_o apostle_n be_v all_o ask_v only_a peter_n answer_v thou_o be_v christ_n and_o it_o be_v say_v to_o he_o i_o will_v give_v
