from_o the_o same_o scripture_n that_o a_o pastor_n over_o a_o few_o shall_v have_v like_o power_n to_o teach_v and_o to_o govern_v a_o few_o as_o a_o great_a pastor_n over_o many_o have_v to_o

then_o let_v they_o also_o conclude_v that_o only_o great_a knight_n be_v true_a knight_n that_o only_o great_a duke_n be_v true_a duke_n that_o only_o great_a king_n be_v true_a king_n and_o that_o only_a great_a principality_n temporal_a be_v true_a principality_n temporal_a which_o conclusion_n if_o they_o shall_v judge_v to_o be_v conclusionlesse_a because_o king_n rehoboam_n have_v king_n not_o only_o king_n of_o great_a kingdom_n but_o also_o king_n of_o small_a kingdom_n be_v true_a king_n as_o large_a a_o patent_n to_o feed_v and_o to_o command_v two_o tribe_n as_o king_n solomon_n his_o father_n have_v to_o command_v and_o to_o feed_v twelve_o or_o as_o the_o archbishop_n of_o york_n may_v suppose_v himself_o to_o have_v over_o nine_o or_o ten_o county_n as_o the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n can_v have_v over_o nine_o and_o thirty_o or_o forty_o then_o i_o think_v it_o a_o matter_n very_o reasonable_o of_o they_o to_o be_v confess_v that_o all_o true_a pastor_n whether_o they_o be_v great_a pastor_n or_o little_a pastor_n may_v lawful_o exercise_v all_o manner_n of_o such_o true_a power_n spiritual_a as_o unto_o true_a spiritual_a pastor_n by_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v appertain_v for_o if_o bishop_n be_v great_a pastor_n may_v therefore_o preach_v and_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n because_o they_o be_v as_o they_o say_v true_a pastor_n then_o also_o may_v little_a pastor_n therefore_o excommunicate_a because_o they_o be_v as_o the_o scripture_n say_v true_a bishop_n wherefore_o if_o the_o lord_n bishop_n of_o london_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o pastoral_a office_n as_o he_o think_v which_o with_o his_o brethren_n the_o other_o pastor_n of_o his_o diocese_n he_o have_v in_o common_a derive_v unto_o he_o immediate_o from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n may_v lawful_o excommunicate_v then_o the_o pastoral_n office_n which_o master_n doctor_n andrews_n have_v over_o the_o people_n of_o his_o parish_n of_o saint_n giles_n without_o

deduce_v unto_o they_o out_o of_o the_o same_o word_n what_o proof_n can_v be_v make_v out_o of_o the_o word_n that_o the_o bishop_n be_v not_o lord_n pastor_n of_o the_o pastor_n of_o his_o diocese_n may_v lawful_o by_o the_o word_n excommunicate_v all_o manner_n of_o offender_n both_o pastor_n and_o people_n within_o his_o diocese_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o that_o neither_o master_n doctor_n
