bishop_n of_o rome_n do_v succeed_v st._n peter_n in_o such_o a_o supreme_a power_n and_o authority_n and_o be_v now_o the_o head_n of_o all_o the_o christian_a church_n be_v not_o consistent_a with_o

a_o universal_a power_n and_o authority_n which_o he_o have_v not_o heb._n 5.4_o and_o no_o man_n take_v this_o honour_n unto_o himself_o say_v the_o apostle_n but_o he_o that_o be_v call_v of_o god_n

the_o bishop_n of_o that_o place_n may_v allege_v as_o good_a a_o plea_n to_o be_v his_o successor_n as_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n can_v again_o st._n paul_n write_v a_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n
