2._o and_o that_o if_o this_o be_v not_o admit_v which_o i_o say_v in_o this_o my_o first_o answer_n it_o must_v follow_v out_o of_o this_o reason_n of_o victoria_n which_o himself_o too_o a_o

the_o second_o reason_n of_o the_o same_o francis_n victoria_n which_o be_v that_o the_o pope_n may_v by_o his_o own_o proper_a authority_n choose_v ecclesiastical_a minister_n notwithstanding_o any_o
