to_o say_v we_o have_v any_o great_a or_o better_a ground_n to_o tolerate_v they_o than_o they_o the_o independent_o for_o my_o part_n i_o can_v never_o understand_v they_o have_v any_o authority_n

we_o prove_v it_o by_o mr._n edward_n his_o word_n follow_v they_o force_v man_n to_o have_v minister_n and_o officer_n without_o be_v ordain_v contrary_a to_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n all_o along_o the_o new_a testament_n as_o act._n 6._o v._n 6._o act._n 4.23_o no_o man_n be_v ordain_v officer_n of_o the_o church_n without_o ordination_n let_v they_o produce_v one_o instance_n
