i_o must_v have_v answer_v but_o none_o be_v charge_v but_o only_o the_o bare_a make_n of_o one_o speech_n and_o the_o mend_n of_o another_o and_o this_o be_v a_o very_a poor_a argument_n of_o any_o

endeavour_v to_o embitter_v the_o king_n this_o way_n so_o the_o smart_a passage_n which_o mr._n nicolas_n say_v be_v there_o i_o hope_v will_v not_o be_v think_v such_o when_o it_o be_v consider_v

which_o come_v next_o a_o evil_a therefore_o which_o have_v issue_v not_o so_o much_o from_o the_o personal_a disposition_n of_o the_o prelate_n themselves_o as_o from_o the_o innate_a quality_n and_o

that_o office_n be_v to_o preach_v christ_n and_o to_o govern_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o his_o law_n if_o any_o bishop_n break_v this_o it_o be_v his_o personal_a error_n and_o

that_o the_o dangerous_a position_n which_o too_o many_o of_o the_o presbyterian_a faction_n public_o maintain_v and_o in_o print_n proceed_v not_o so_o much_o from_o the_o personal_a disposition_n
