that_o country_n for_o a_o church_n can_v be_v a_o particular_a church_n by_o union_n to_o a_o vicar_n but_o by_o union_n to_o he_o who_o vicar_n he_o be_v my_o lord_n of_o chalcedon_n be_v not_o

but_o those_o who_o without_o their_o own_o fault_n have_v no_o bishop_n be_v not_o in_o schism_n with_o any_o lawful_a bishop_n ergo_fw-la those_o who_o have_v no_o bishop_n do_v fulfil_v the_o

no_o bishopric_n shall_v ever_o be_v vacant_a nor_o any_o college_n want_v a_o rectour_n or_o province_n a_o provincial_n because_o the_o provincial_n will_v become_v rectour_n &_o the_o general_n

the_o reason_n of_o this_o depend_v on_o the_o knowledge_n of_o particular_a institute_n of_o religion_n in_o general_a it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o say_v that_o no_o general_n have_v over_o his_o
