out_o of_o which_o word_n we_o gather_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o that_o all_o englishman_n who_o use_v the_o name_n of_o primacy_n do_v either_o err_v or_o speak_v improper_o if_o we_o believe_v m._n

king_n have_v power_n of_o the_o same_o order_n with_o the_o bishop_n and_o minister_n of_o his_o church_n but_o this_o now_o according_a to_o m._n tompsons_n opinion_n be_v a_o error_n wherefore_o either_o they_o do_v err_v or_o speak_v improper_o 3._o the_o other_o be_v that_o a_o conjecture_n may_v be_v make_v of_o the_o thing_n signify_v from_o the_o word_n signify_v the_o word_n supremacy_n be_v a_o new_a and_o late_o invent_v word_n unknown_a to_o the_o ancient_a father_n not_o use_v in_o scripture_n unheard_a of_o in_o the_o christian_a world_n moreover_o what_o do_v it_o signify_v the_o supreme_a power_n forsooth_o of_o the_o king_n in_o the_o church_n wherefore_o this_o be_v new_a also_o sure_o if_o the_o ancient_a father_n either_o latin_a or_o greek_a have_v know_v this_o
