of_o jerusalem_n alexandria_n antioch_n and_o rome_n as_o it_o be_v in_o eusebius_n therefore_o either_o the_o next_o successor_n of_o the_o apostle_n change_v the_o force_n of_o ecclesiastical_a

when_o hierome_n write_v that_o it_o be_v decree_v in_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o one_o choose_v out_o of_o the_o presbyter_n shall_v be_v place_v over_o the_o rest_n and_o when_o i_o have_v demonstrate_v that_o in_o the_o life-time_n of_o the_o apostle_n bishop_n be_v superior_a to_o presbyter_n in_o ordination_n and_o that_o each_o church_n have_v one_o place_v over_o it_o do_v we_o not_o without_o cause_n demand_n where_o when_o and_z by_o who_o episcopacy_n be_v ordain_v episcopacy_n therefore_o be_v of_o divine_a right_n which_o how_o the_o prelate_n of_o the_o church_n of_o
