A64146 An answer to a book entituled An account of the Church Catholike where it was before the Reformation; and whether Rome were or be the Church Catholike. Wherein is proved, that the Catholike Church never was, nor can be distinct from that which is now called, the Church of Rome. By R.T. Esquire. R. T. 1654 (1654) Wing T42; ESTC R221978 68,689 169

that_o she_o must_v be_v heretical_a or_o schismatical_a when_o rome_n be_v so_o rome_n as_o it_o be_v a_o particular_a sea_n be_v but_o a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n catholic_a and_o therefore_o
