of_o embarking_a in_o a_o sink_a interest_n and_o fill_v they_o with_o new_a jealousy_n of_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o it_o and_o what_o just_a offence_n this_o must_v give_v to_o the_o government_n i_o

of_o his_o deprivation_n as_o to_o take_v the_o character_n and_o exercise_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o bishop_n in_o the_o see_v of_o a_o deprive_a bishop_n to_o receive_v the_o consecration_n on_o of_o a_o bishop_n i_o suppose_v be_v not_o the_o thing_n he_o account_v unlawful_a nor_o to_o exercise_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o bishop_n and_o then_o there_o be_v nothing_o he_o can_v think_v

this_o as_o for_o a_o bishop_n to_o do_v it_o unless_o a_o presbyter_n may_v do_v it_o without_o the_o revenue_n of_o the_o bishopric_n but_o a_o bishop_n must_v not_o do_v it_o with_o they_o but_o

if_o he_o dare_v not_o say_v it_o will_v he_o dare_v to_o think_v it_o and_o yet_o if_o the_o deprive_a bishop_n though_o they_o retain_v their_o episcopal_a character_n have_v no_o authority_n or_o
