the_o truth_n of_o god_n be_v with_o they_o become_v yea_o and_o nay_o so_o as_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o say_v any_o thing_n for_o defence_n of_o their_o church_n estate_n 5._o and_o from_o whence_o prove_v he_o that_o which_o here_o he_o speak_v of_o two_o hy_z priest_n at_o once_o etc._n etc._n do_v he_o show_v it_o from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n no._n but_o he_o say_v the_o history_n make_v mention_n of_o it_o so_o then_o from_o the_o scripture_n he_o can_v not_o bring_v proof_n for_o that_o he_o say_v for_o indeed_o by_o they_o we_o find_v even_o in_o the_o corrupte_v time_n but_o one_o at_o once_o to_o be_v by_o priest_n albeit_o that_o of_o old_a also_o there_o be_v two_o which_o be_v chief_a over_o all_o the_o rest_n the_o one_o be_v principal_a the_o other_o second_o see_v for_o

may_v be_v see_v in_o scripture_n which_o himself_o have_v note_v down_o 6._o why_o also_o do_v he_o not_o name_v the_o history_n that_o mention_v these_o thing_n together_o with_o the_o person_n

therefore_o till_o it_o be_v answer_v â_o may_v and_o do_v refer_v he_o in_o this_o behalf_n next_o where_o he_o say_v if_o the_o chief_a office_n be_v so_o corrupt_v and_o alter_v through_o covetousness_n it_o be_v not_o likely_a that_o the_o inferior_a office_n remain_v sound_a etc._n etc._n and_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a that_o the_o office_n &_o outward_a constitution_n be_v whole_o alter_v from_o the_o right_a institution_n etc._n etc._n first_o i_o wish_v the_o reader_n to_o mind_n his_o manner_n of_o reason_v a_o little_a before_o he_o say_v he_o doubt_v not_o plain_o to_o take_v away_o that_o which_o we_o object_n of_o their_o outward_a constitution_n yet_o behold_v the_o issue_n of_o his_o first_o and_o chief_a proof_n be_v all_o come_v to_o this_o it_o be_v not_o otherwise_o likely_a it_o be_v very_o likely_a etc._n etc._n thus_o his_o plain_a demonstration_n if_o it_o fit_v his_o turn_n yet_o be_v no_o other_o but_o a_o mere_a likelihood_n and_o presumption_n and_o that_o also_o gather_v from_o other_o writer_n not_o from_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o this_o them_z think_v you_o as_o plain_v a_o take_n away_o of_o our_o objection_n as_o it_o be_v a_o sound_a defence_n of_o their_o church-constitution_n neither_o barrel_n better_o herring_n but_o what_o now_o if_o by_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v not_o only_o likely_a but_o indeed_o certain_a that_o it_o be_v otherwise_o with_o the_o jew_n than_o here_o he_o say_v concern_v their_o office_n and_o outward_a constitution_n how_o have_v he_o then_o plain_o take_v away_o our_o objection_n as_o he_o pretend_v let_v he_o search_v therefore_o and_z he_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o admit_v any_o strange_a function_n among_o they_o as_o they_o 19-23_a they_o john_n 1_o 19-23_a urge_v john_n the_o baptist_n to_o show_v warrant_n for_o his_o ministry_n from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o beside_o by_o their_o silence_n to_o christ_n question_n about_o johns_n baptism_n do_v plain_o testify_v that_o 26._o that_o mat._n 21.25_o 26._o themselves_o judge_v no_o ministry_n lawful_a but_o that_o which_o be_v from_o heaven_n that_o be_v such_z only_a as_o be_v of_o god_n not_o of_o men._n if_o here_o now_o we_o will_v use_v his_o manner_n of_o reason_v how_o great_a likelihood_n may_v we_o just_o allege_v from_o these_o scripture_n to_o the_o contrary_a of_o that_o he_o say_v but_o to_o put_v the_o matter_n out_o of_o all_o doubt_n the_o scripture_n witness_v of_o zachary_n john_n baptist_n father_n that_z he_o be_v then_o one_o of_o the_o priest_n
