by_o our_o covenant_n to_o make_v this_o evident_a to_o all_o man_n conscience_n 1_o the_o king_n have_v yield_v to_o take_v away_o all_o the_o power_n and_o jurisdiction_n whatsoever_o exercise_v by_o our_o bishop_n in_o point_n of_o censure_n or_o discipline_n in_o his_o former_a answer_n and_o contend_v for_o nothing_o now_o but_o their_o power_n of_o ordination_n only_o and_o that_o not_o

this_o unsatisfactory_a because_o that_o the_o bishop_n for_o three_o year_n during_o the_o continuance_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a government_n shall_v have_v the_o chief_a power_n of_o ordination_n
