that_o they_o leave_v both_o ordination_n and_o excommunication_n to_o a_o presbyter_n as_o well_o as_o to_o a_o bishop_n and_o this_o austin_n will_v have_v tolerate_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o my_o opinion_n be_v many_o and_o probable_a ground_v on_o the_o history_n of_o those_o time_n one_o i_o shall_v mention_v viz._n that_o the_o scot_n be_v mingle_v with_o the_o british_a when_o they_o have_v these_o meeting_n now_o that_o the_o scot_n do_v original_o commit_v act_n of_o order_n and_o jurisdiction_n to_o presbyter_n be_v a_o thing_n well_o know_v if_o any_o doubt_n concern_v it_o

this_o my_o opinion_n because_o i_o find_v that_o when_o our_o british_a church_n have_v thorough_o imbibe_v the_o romish_a mode_n and_o custom_n then_o at_o a_o synod_n hold_v at_o celichyth_n a._n

old_a british_a church_n when_o lo_o there_o come_v to_o my_o hand_n the_o history_n of_o mr._n petry_n quote_v by_o the_o latin_a apologist_n that_o historian_n go_v a_o little_a more_o confident_o to_o work_v than_o i_o have_v do_v for_o thus_o say_v he_o century_n 11._o pag._n 282_o 283._o as_o for_o england_n since_o the_o saxon_n or_o english_v receive_v the_o faith_n by_o augustine_n they_o
