let_v we_o suppose_v this_o also_o that_o peter_n be_v at_o rome_n and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n there_o what_o will_v thence_o follow_v unto_o your_o advantage_n what_o towards_o the_o settlement_n of_o any_o man_n in_o religion_n or_o bring_v we_o unto_o the_o unity_n of_o faith_n the_o thing_n inquire_v after_o he_o be_v at_o he_o preach_v the_o gospel_n at_o jerusalem_n samaria_n joppa_n
