that_o country_n for_o a_o church_n can_v be_v a_o particular_a church_n by_o union_n to_o a_o vicar_n but_o by_o union_n to_o he_o who_o vicar_n he_o be_v my_o lord_n of_o chalcedon_n be_v not_o

his_o opinion_n be_v a_o particular_a church_n of_o extent_n as_o to_o have_v a_o pope_n of_o rome_n you_o will_v perhaps_o say_v that_o the_o

what_o nicholas_n smith_n say_v i_o argue_v thus_o in_o m._n doctor_n form_n it_o be_v not_o of_o the_o divine_a law_n that_o england_n have_v a_o bishop_n proper_o call_v bishop_n of_o england_n or_o

because_o there_o be_v a_o divine_a law_n that_o every_o great_a part_n of_o the_o church_n as_o they_o conceive_v england_n to_o be_v have_v its_o proper_a bishop_n yet_o i_o can_v approve_v his_o

19_o he_o do_v likewise_o not_o a_o little_a relent_n in_o the_o same_o n._n 36._o where_n find_v m._n doctor_n sore_o press_v by_o the_o discussour_n n._n 15.16_o that_o his_o argument_n if_o they_o
