i_o except_o you_o will_v make_v a_o new_a definition_n of_o bishop_n that_o be_v give_v no_o certain_a place_n in_o deed_n say_v he_o the_o apostle_n office_n be_v more_v they_o byshope_n for_o it_o be_v universal_a but_o yet_o christ_n institute_v byshoppe_n in_o his_o church_n as_o paul_n say_v he_o have_v give_v pastor_n prophet_n so_o that_o i_o trove_v it_o be_v prove_v by_o the_o

to_o translate_v this_o to_o byshoppe_n and_o their_o succession_n quoth_v i_o be_v a_o plain_a subtlety_n and_o therefore_o quoth_v i_o that_o it_o may_v be_v plain_a i_o will_v ask_v you_o a_o

which_o ministrethe_v god_n word_n and_o his_o sacrament_n which_o have_v jurisdiction_n and_o succession_n of_o byshoppe_n to_o have_v from_o time_n to_o time_n beleve_v as_o you_o believe_v begin_v now_o &_o so_o go_v upward_o as_o i_o will_v do_v quoth_v he_o of_o our_o doctrine_n and_o therefore_o you_o be_v out_o of_o the_o church_n and_o so_o may_v not_o be_v save_v perchance_o you_o will_v bring_v i_o downwards_o a_o show_n to_o blear_v the_o people_n eye_n but_o to_o go_v upwardes_o that_o can_v you_o never_o do_v and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a trial_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o he_o ought_v to_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o follow_v the_o scripture_n and_o example_n of_o good_a man_n then_o say_v yea_o well_o then_o quoth_v i_o stephen_n be_v accuse_v and_o condemn_v as_o i_o
