as_o a_o father_n go_v before_o the_o sheep_n and_o feed_v they_o well_o and_o they_o from_o danger_n keep_v from_o be_v by_o the_o crafty_a fox_n annoy_v or_o by_o the_o lion_n or_o the_o wolf_n destroy_v and_o he_o that_o be_v the_o chief_a shepherd_n will_v such_o shepherd_n certain_o reward_v so_o well_o they_o shall_v not_o once_o from_o he_o receive_v a_o frown_n nor_o triple_a mitre_n but_o of_o life_n a_o crown_n by_o what_o be_v say_v we_o may_v already_o find_v the_o lordly_a pope_n be_v of_o another_o mind_n than_o peter_n be_v for_o he_o no_o lord_n will_v be_v nor_o no_o man_n else_o that_o be_v in_o his_o degree_n which_o prove_v the_o pope_n as_o you_o may_v clear_o see_v to_o have_v no_o primitive_a antiquity_n for_o there_o no_o pope_n nor_o cardinal_n be_v then_o nay_o christ_n forbid_v such_o lord_n shall_v be_v for_o when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n a_o charge_n leave_v he_o with_o his_o disciple_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v lordly_a nor_o lofty_a as_o when_o man_n do_v meet_v they_o in_o the_o marketplace_n they_o shall_v they_o greet_v nor_o must_v they_o suffer_v any_o of_o they_o to_o call_v rabbi_n for_o christ_n be_v master_n over_o they_o all_o no_o nor_o must_v they_o presume_v by_o no_o mean_n neither_o to_o call_v a_o man_n upon_o the_o earth_n their_o father_n for_o they_o no_o father_n have_v on_o earth_n but_o one_o which_o be_v in_o heaven_n their_o father_n be_v alone_o nor_o no_o pre-eminence_n must_v any_o seek_v but_o holy_a humble_a they_o must_v be_v and_o meek_a for_o he_o that_o do_v exalt_v himself_o shall_v be_v abase_v so_o much_o our_o lord_n have_v say_v that_o he_o that_o will_v be_v great_a it_o be_v his_o will_n he_o shall_v no_o master_n be_v but_o servant_n to_o they_o all_o indeed_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o gentile_n do_v dominion_n exercise_v over_o man_n it_o be_v true_a and_o such_o as_o lord_n and_o one_o that_o be_v great_a he_o do_v exercise_n over_o they_o authority_n but_o christ_n disciple_n must_v not_o lord_n it_o so_o if_o any_o seek_v such_o power_n he_o must_v know_v this_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n that_o such_o man_n shall_v be_v minister_n unto_o the_o rest_n that_o will_v keep_v faithful_a in_o the_o place_n which_o christ_n have_v set_v they_o in_o and_o never_o such_o honour_n seek_v to_o get_v and_o further_o paul_n unto_o the_o corinth_n say_v that_o they_o have_v no_o dominion_n over_o their_o faith_n nor_o be_v they_o lord_n but_o helper_n of_o their_o joy_n they_o stand_v by_o faith_n then_o will_v they_o not_o destroy_v that_o faith_n that_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o they_o give_v for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n on_o the_o earth_n can_v have_v dominion_n over_o faith_n but_o christ_n alone_o for_o that_o prerogative_n be_v he_o and_o none_o but_o he_o can_v lay_v such_o claim_n unto_o the_o same_o though_o pope_n or_o call_v by_o any_o other_o name_n and_o yet_o this_o lofty_a proud_a imperious_a whore_n assume_v this_o great_a prerogative_n and_o more_o she_o do_v by_o force_n presume_v to_o contradict_v that_o precious_a faith_n the_o faith_n of_o god_n elect_v nay_o such_o she_o say_v be_v her_o authority_n that_o king_n and_o prince_n she_o dare_v to_o defy_v which_o peter_n never_o have_v then_o this_o if_o true_a she_o peter_n faith_n and_o practice_n never_o know_v and_o therefore_o it_o conclude_v be_v that_o rome_n have_v not_o antiquity_n beyond_o what_o some_o now_o live_a have_v who_o in_o the_o faith_n now_o be_v that_o peter_n have_v those_o have_v antiquity_n the_o next_o thing_n which_o we_o chief_o be_v to_o heed_n be_v her_o succession_n she_o do_v also_o plead_v and_o say_v from_o peter_n it_o be_v she_o do_v receive_v her_o great_a commission_n if_o you_o will_v her_o believe_v and_o that_o from_o he_o and_o since_o down_o all_o along_o which_o she_o will_v prove_v by_o argument_n so_o strong_a that_o none_o shall_v they_o oppose_v her_o reason_n be_v so_o wicked_a strong_a indeed_o that_o no_o man_n dare_v as_o for_o her_o argument_n the_o best_a be_v these_o if_o any_o rome_n oppose_v or_o she_o displease_v away_o with_o he_o unto_o the_o inquisition_n or_o take_v he_o gaoler_n grant_v he_o no_o permission_n of_o any_o liberty_n but_o keep_v he_o from_o his_o friend_n or_o those_o that_o unto_o he_o will_v come_v and_o keep_v he_o there_o close_o up_o some_o month_n or_o year_n and_o then_o he_o will_v conform_v be_v fill_v with_o fear_n of_o worse_a thing_n that_o after_o will_v ensue_v if_o all_o these_o fail_n and_o none_o of_o they_o will_v do_v then_o out_o she_o bring_v that_o argument_n at_o last_o that_o be_v the_o strong_a and_o that_o keep_v they_o fast_o unto_o the_o question_n answer_v yea_o or_o no_o will_v you_o conform_v or_o to_o the_o fire_n go_v the_o strong_a argument_n rome_n have_v be_v fire_n which_o be_v confute_v when_o saint_n do_v expire_v in_o flame_n as_o witness_n of_o christ_n against_o her_o usurpation_n darkness_n ignorance_n that_o she_o have_v introduce_v and_o cause_v to_o be_v commit_v ever_o since_o the_o time_n that_o she_o a_o right_n do_v plead_v or_o claim_v unto_o succession_n as_o she_o pretend_v to_o peter_n great_a commission_n but_o also_o unto_o this_o we_o do_v reply_n she_o do_v not_o he_o succeed_v the_o reason_n why_o be_v very_o clear_a exceed_o plain_a that_o she_o a_o successor_n of_o peter_n can_v be_v because_o that_o none_o but_o those_o of_o peter_n faith_n can_v he_o succeed_v or_o that_o from_o peter_n have_v receive_v commission_n or_o authority_n to_o be_v a_o bishop_n or_o to_o use_v thereby_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n to_o rule_v or_o take_v the_o care_n of_o people_n soul_n such_o man_n must_v make_v no_o spare_a of_o pain_n nor_o labour_n neither_o shall_v they_o please_v themselves_o nor_o live_v in_o pleasure_n nor_o at_o ease_n nor_o pomp_n and_o state_n nor_o have_v thing_n as_o they_o will_v but_o must_v deny_v themselves_o if_o they_o will_v fulfil_v their_o ministry_n with_o joy_n which_o they_o receive_v of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o who_o they_o have_v believe_v and_o ready_o be_v to_o offer_v up_o their_o all_o for_o he_o and_o for_o his_o flock_n if_o god_n shall_v call_v they_o forth_o to_o such_o a_o service_n and_o a_o work_n they_o to_o defend_v against_o the_o pope_n or_o turk_n defend_v i_o say_v by_o sound_n and_o wholesome_a preach_v of_o gospel-truth_n and_o they_o confirm_v by_o teach_v to_o let_v they_o understand_v to_o see_v and_o know_v what_o great_a impostor_n there_o be_v at_o rome_n and_o show_v their_o great_a profaneness_n and_o their_o filthy_a pride_n idolatry_n and_o cruelty_n beside_o but_o as_o i_o say_v succession_n no_o man_n have_v but_o such_o as_o follow_v christ_n and_o keep_v the_o faith_n that_o precious_a faith_n which_o peter_n have_v and_o none_o but_o that_o which_o christ_n do_v build_v his_o church_n upon_o for_o those_o that_o do_v succeed_v in_o that_o true_a faith_n they_o and_o no_o other_o true_a succession_n have_v which_o all_o impartial_a man_n may_v clear_o see_v by_o what_o paul_n write_v unto_o timothy_n this_o charge_n he_o give_v to_o timothy_n that_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o timothy_n have_v hear_v of_o paul_n among_o those_o many_o witness_n that_o he_o do_v faith_n and_o truth_n confirm_v to_o timothy_n the_o same_o he_o do_v receive_v he_o must_v commit_v to_o faithful_a man_n for_o so_o paul_n think_v it_o fit_a and_o not_o to_o man_n that_o have_v not_o faith_n nor_o such_o that_o err_v from_o the_o faith_n or_o think_v it_o much_o to_o feed_v the_o flock_n except_o they_o have_v the_o wool_n and_o will_v make_v war_n except_o their_o mouth_n be_v full_a but_o unto_o such_o who_o life_n be_v commendable_a and_o who_o to_o teach_v the_o truth_n be_v very_o able_a that_o they_o likewise_o to_o other_o faithful_a man_n shall_v give_v the_o selfsame_a charge_n as_o paul_n do_v then_o that_o down_o along_o none_o shall_v succeed_v but_o he_o that_o keep_v the_o faith_n from_o time_n to_o time_n you_o see_v from_o what_o be_v say_v it_o do_v appear_v so_o plain_a that_o there_o do_v no_o succession_n now_o remain_v in_o rome_n because_o rome_n now_o have_v wrack_v and_o lose_v the_o faith_n of_o peter_n whereof_o she_o do_v boast_v for_o she_o that_o faith_n have_v often_o stigmatise_v with_o such_o defame_n and_o have_v apostatise_v that_o long_o ago_o she_o her_o succession_n lose_v and_o christ_n withal_o she_o change_v he_o for_o the_o host_n which_o now_o she_o do_v adore_v and_o fall_v down_o to_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o give_v the_o whore_n her_o due_a if_o any_o one_o there_o be_v she_o do_v succeed_v it_o be_v the_o serpent_n for_o she_o do_v proceed_v so_o full_o in_o his_o way_n and_o path_n she_o go_v
