they_o be_v force_v for_o their_o own_o preservation_n against_o puritan_n to_o take_v up_o some_o of_o those_o principle_n again_o which_o former_a protestant_n have_v cast_v down_o for_o popish_a as_o be_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o visible_a church_n efficacy_n of_o ordination_n difference_n between_o clergy_n and_o laiety_n etc._n etc._n here_o first_o you_o deny_v that_o those_o principle_n

you_o therefore_o bid_v i_o prove_v that_o those_o principle_n be_v ever_o deny_v by_o our_o prelate_n protestant_n because_o i_o say_v that_o our_o prelate_n protestant_n here_o in_o england_n as_o

sir_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o tell_v you_o here_o once_o for_o all_o that_o i_o think_v it_o sufficient_a for_o my_o design_n to_o set_v down_o either_o for_o papist_n or_o protestant_n when_o

any_o purpose_n of_o my_o design_n and_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o i_o that_o i_o know_v no_o better_o but_o let_v we_o see_v what_o my_o argument_n be_v and_o how_o you_o crush_v it_o the_o church_n say_v i_o must_v have_v a_o bishop_n or_o otherwise_o she_o will_v not_o have_v such_o a_o visible_a head_n as_o she_o have_v at_o first_o etc._n etc._n this_o that_o you_o may_v evacuate_v you_o tell_v i_o that_o the_o church_n have_v still_o the_o same_o head_n she_o have_v which_o be_v christ_n who_o be_v present_a with_o his_o church_n by_o his_o spirit_n and_o law_n and_o be_v man_n god_n

not_o have_v the_o same_o head_n and_o so_o will_v have_v the_o same_o and_o yet_o not_o the_o same_o thus_o you_o speak_v but_o sir_n i_o can_v in_o any_o reason_n be_v think_v to_o speak_v

yet_o such_o a_o head_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v to_o the_o end_n the_o church_n may_v be_v one_o mystic_a and_o spiritual_a body_n at_o unity_n in_o itself_o and_o that_o head_n must_v be_v
