we_o advouch_v to_o have_v be_v by_o a_o little_a and_o a_o little_a utterlie_o overthrow_v by_o the_o papistical_a tyranny_n which_o with_o the_o apostle_n we_o may_v just_o call_v the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n 3_o and_o first_o we_o affirm_v that_o the_o calling_n of_o the_o popish_a clergy_n which_o they_o express_v by_o that_o proud_a title_n of_o hierarchy_n be_v in_o part_n altogether_o

this_o intercession_n of_o he_o consist_v especial_o in_o that_o efficacy_n of_o that_o oblation_n of_o he_o make_v once_o to_o his_o father_n the_o force_n whereof_o be_v this_o that_o the_o father_n
