fellow_n and_o equal_n all_o this_o great_a noise_n and_o clamour_n against_o the_o pride_n of_o the_o bishop_n upon_o this_o score_n proceed_v as_o i_o say_v mere_o from_o the_o ignorance_n of_o the_o true_a original_a cause_n and_o ground_n of_o that_o innocent_a and_o ancient_a usage_n and_o therefore_o can_v signify_v much_o to_o any_o reasonable_a and_o consider_a man_n when_o that_o ground_n be_v discover_v which_o be_v this_o viz._n that_o every_o bishop_n be_v in_o construction_n of_o our_o law_n a_o corporation_n for_o although_o the_o bishop_n of_o himself_o and_o in_o his_o private_a and_o personal_a capacity_n be_v but_o a_o single_a person_n as_o other_o man_n be_v and_o according_o in_o his_o letter_n concern_v his_o own_o particular_a affair_n and_o in_o all_o other_o his_o act_n upon_o his_o own_o occasion_n and_o as_o a_o private_a person_n write_v of_o himself_o in_o the_o singular_a number_n as_o other_o private_a man_n do_v yet_o for_o as_o much_o as_o in_o his_o public_a and_o politic_a capacity_n and_o as_o a_o bishop_n in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n he_o stand_v in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o law_n as_o a_o corporation_n the_o king_n not_o

no_o less_o intolerable_a for_o the_o bishop_n to_o use_v the_o king_n name_n in_o their_o process_n and_o judicial_a act_n not_o have_v any_o sufficient_a legal_a warrant_n or_o authority_n for_o
