be_v the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n and_o the_o title_n whereby_o he_o claim_v this_o power_n over_o we_o be_v the_o same_o whereby_o he_o claim_v it_o over_o the_o whole_a world_n because_o he_o be_v

within_o this_o realm_n true_a it_o be_v that_o our_o lawyer_n in_o their_o year-book_n by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v usual_o design_v the_o pope_n but_o if_o they_o have_v examine_v

only_o be_v to_o determine_v with_o the_o death_n of_o the_o first_o apostle_n for_o howsoever_o at_o their_o first_o entry_n into_o the_o execution_n of_o this_o commission_n we_o find_v that_o 26._o mathias_n be_v admit_v to_o the_o apostleship_n in_o the_o room_n of_o judas_n yet_o afterward_o when_o james_n the_o brother_n of_o john_n be_v slay_v by_o herod_n we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o any_o other_o be_v substitute_v in_o his_o place_n nay_o we_o know_v that_o the_o apostle_n general_o leave_v no_o successor_n in_o this_o kind_n neither_o do_v any_o of_o the_o bishop_n he_o of_o rome_n only_o except_v that_o sit_v in_o those_o famous_a church_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n exercise_v their_o ministry_n challenge_v a_o apostleship_n or_o a_o universal_a bishopric_n by_o virtue_n of_o that_o succession_n it_o will_v second_o therefore_o be_v inquire_v what_o sound_a evidence_n they_o can_v produce_v to_o show_v that_o one_o of_o the_o company_n be_v to_o hold_v the_o apostleship_n as_o it_o be_v in_o fee_n for_o he_o and_o his_o successor_n for_o ever_o and_o that_o the_o other_o eleven_o shall_v hold_v the_o same_o for_o term_n of_o life_n only_o three_o if_o this_o state_n of_o perpetuity_n be_v to_o be_v cast_v upon_o one_o how_o come_v it_o to_o fall_v upon_o st._n peter_n rather_o than_o upon_o st._n john_n who_o outlive_v all_o the_o rest_n of_o he_o follow_v and_o so_o as_o a_o survive_a feoffee_n have_v the_o fair_a right_a to_o retain_v the_o same_o in_o himself_o and_o his_o successor_n for_o ever_o four_o if_o that_o state_n be_v whole_o settle_v upon_o st._n peter_n see_v the_o romanist_n themselves_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o be_v bishop_n of_o antioch_n before_o he_o be_v bishop_n of_o rome_n we_o require_v they_o to_o show_v why_o so_o great_a a_o inheritance_n as_o this_o shall_v descend_v unto_o the_o young_a brother_n as_o it_o be_v by_o burrough-english_a rather_o than_o to_o the_o elder_a according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a manner_n of_o descent_n especial_o see_v rome_n have_v little_a else_o to_o allege_v for_o this_o preferment_n but_o only_o that_o st._n peter_n be_v crucify_v in_o it_o which_o be_v a_o very_a slender_a reason_n to_o move_v the_o apostle_n so_o to_o respect_v it_o see_v therefore_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o great_a claim_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n appear_v to_o be_v so_o vain_a and_o frivolous_a i_o may_v safe_o conclude_v that_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v no_o ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a authority_n within_o this_o realm_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a point_n contain_v in_o the_o second_o
