above_o and_o beyond_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o they_o be_v 1._o supremacy_n in_o matthew_n 2._o infallibility_n in_o luke_n 3._o universal_a episcopacy_n in_o john_n 2._o they_o

be_v give_v for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o ought_v not_o to_o die_v with_o he_o 3._o they_o take_v for_o grant_v that_o the_o pope_n be_v peter_n successor_n both_o in_o the_o bishopric_n of_o rome_n and_o also_o in_o all_o his_o other_o privilege_n and_o for_o the_o last_o they_o allege_v nothing_o but_o the_o credit_n of_o that_o which_o they_o call_v apostolical_a

a_o wise_a and_o disinterest_v person_n will_v blush_v to_o be_v guilty_a of_o will_v best_o appear_v by_o examine_v the_o place_n themselves_o and_o if_o when_o they_o be_v put_v upon_o the_o rack_n they_o can_v be_v force_v to_o confess_v so_o much_o as_o bellarmine_n and_o the_o pope_n parasite_n conclude_v from_o they_o i_o shall_v then_o consent_v to_o dethrone_v scripture_n from_o its_o

of_o devotion_n for_o nothing_o less_o than_o a_o overawe_v and_o religious_a stupidity_n will_v make_v any_o man_n submit_v unto_o such_o impossible_a and_o far_o fetch_v interpretation_n 1._o the_o

whatever_o peter_n have_v here_o be_v likewise_o grant_v to_o the_o pope_n who_o be_v his_o successor_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v the_o rock_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n can_v be_v

head_n and_o prince_n of_o the_o apostle_n yet_o how_o will_v this_o personal_a privilege_n any_o more_o belong_v to_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n if_o he_o be_v peter_n successor_n than_o what_o our_o
