more_o against_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o church_n then_o to_o take_v such_o man_n for_o priest_n &_o bishop_n of_o such_o church_n as_o man_n know_v not_o how_o they_o behave_v themselves_o in_o low_a

chief_n cause_n of_o their_o distance_n that_o be_v the_o concurrence_n of_o presbyter_n with_o their_o bishop_n in_o ordination_n and_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o church_n provide_v it_o be_v

the_o law_n for_o hope_n of_o amendment_n with_o so_o much_o appearance_n of_o danger_n to_o the_o be_v of_o the_o whole_a but_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o erect_v
