mistake_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o modest_a phrase_n for_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v that_o the_o archbishop_n and_o bishop_n have_v as_o much_o jurisdiction_n in_o their_o respective_a province_n and_o diocese_n of_o england_n as_o any_o other_o patriarch_n and_o bishop_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n ever_o have_v in_o they_o and_o if_o the_o act_n of_o uniformity_n be_v a_o law_n i_o be_o

be_v no_o such_o creature_n as_o a_o national_a church_n of_o england_n for_o say_v he_o whoso_o will_v erect_v a_o state_v national_a govern_v church_n in_o england_n must_v find_v we_o a_o officer_n clothe_v with_o authority_n to_o excommunicate_v from_o michael_n '_o s_o mount_n in_o cornwall_n to_z carlisle_z in_o berwick_n now_o sir_n let_v this_o pass_v for_o a_o piece_n of_o wit_n though_o it_o be_v as_o wide_a from_o reason_n as_o cornwall_n from_o berwick_n what_o though_o the_o bishop_n of_o antioch_n can_v not_o excommunicate_v from_o antioch_n to_o constantinople_n and_o from_o

from_o the_o communion_n and_o jurisdiction_n of_o their_o proper_a patriarch_n without_o schism_n if_o our_o author_n can_v have_v prove_v that_o there_o be_v any_o province_n or_o native_n of_o england_n that_o be_v de_fw-fr jure_fw-la exempt_a from_o the_o canon_n of_o this_o church_n and_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o english_a bishop_n than_o there_o have_v be_v something_o of_o

michael_n in_o cornwall_n and_o this_o i_o fancy_n do_v strong_o conclude_v that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v such_o a_o part_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n which_o have_v a_o proper_a and_o

which_o he_o may_v enjoy_v all_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n so_o as_o may_v be_v for_o his_o soul_n advantage_n well_o then_o why_o do_v they_o not_o communicate_v with_o the_o church_n of_o

to_o this_o he_o answer_v pag._n 11._o that_o the_o business_n be_v so_o state_v by_o the_o act_n of_o uniformity_n 11._o that_o they_o can_v communicate_v with_o we_o without_o do_v what_o they_o
