head_n but_o also_o autocephalic_fw-mi that_o be_v under_o its_o own_o proper_a jurisdiction_n only_o and_o subject_a to_o no_o patriarch_n from_o the_o time_n that_o the_o faith_n first_o begin_v to_o be_v plant_v there_o till_o the_o come_n of_o augustine_n the_o monk._n there_o be_v therefore_o two_o thing_n which_o the_o author_n have_v undertake_v to_o prove_v against_o i_o one_o that_o the_o bound_n of_o the_o roman_a patriarchate_n aught_o to_o be_v restrain_v so_o as_o not_o to_o extend_v to_o britain_n the_o other_o that_o the_o hierarchy_n of_o the_o english_a church_n which_o acknowledge_v no_o authority_n superior_a to_o that_o of_o a_o metropolitan_a be_v ancient_a it_o be_v chief_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o these_o thing_n the_o author_n have_v make_v use_n of_o his_o utmost_a endeavour_n industry_n and_o ability_n not_o tread_v in_o the_o footstep_n of_o the_o ancient_n but_o walk_v in_o new_a path_n which_o lead_v from_o the_o truth_n as_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v brief_o to_o show_v in_o this_o dissertation_n for_o whereas_o this_o author_n have_v bring_v those_o thing_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o his_o opinion_n which_o have_v be_v late_o invent_v partly_o by_o

the_o true_a discipline_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o ancient_a father_n from_o the_o decree_n of_o council_n and_o from_o the_o sense_n of_o all_o antiquity_n i_o shall_v therefore_o divide_v this_o dissertation_n into_o six_o chapter_n in_o the_o four_o first_o of_o which_o i_o shall_v allege_v those_o thing_n which_o relate_v to_o the_o origin_n of_o the_o british_a

metropolitical_a authority_n be_v supreme_a and_o confute_v they_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o those_o very_a author_n which_o he_o allege_v he_o think_v that_o the_o patriarchal_a and_o papal_a authority_n be_v unknown_a to_o the_o british_a church_n in_o the_o six_o first_o age_n and_o that_o this_o be_v manifest_o prove_v from_o the_o answer_n of_o dinoth_n the_o abbot_n and_o the_o say_n of_o the_o monk_n of_o banchor_n i_o shall_v show_v that_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n at_o all_o make_v concern_v the_o supreme_a authority_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n but_o that_o britain_n do_v

the_o come_n of_o augustine_n the_o monk._n and_o when_o i_o shall_v have_v make_v this_o appear_v from_o several_a monument_n of_o the_o british_a church_n and_o by_o the_o history_n of_o that_o

truth_n who_o think_v that_o the_o church_n fail_v thoughout_n the_o whole_a world_n and_o be_v afterward_o find_v by_o a_o few_o person_n in_o a_o narrow_a corner_n of_o the_o earth_n i_o shall_v bring_v the_o testimony_n of_o optatus_n milevitanus_fw-la wherein_o he_o reprove_v the_o donatist_n for_o the_o like_a error_n because_o they_o heretofore_o reduce_v the_o catholic_a church_n to_o

will_v appear_v that_o the_o true_a church_n be_v to_o be_v find_v diffuse_v throughout_o the_o whole_a world_n because_o it_o be_v catholic_a and_o that_o it_o be_v one_o because_o it_o agree_v in_o
