under_o the_o government_n of_o a_o flagitious_a servant_n such_o as_o the_o papist_n grant_v pope_n may_v be_v let_v we_o therefore_o take_v heed_n that_o while_o we_o set_v up_o other_o head_n than_o christ_n over_o the_o church_n we_o do_v not_o reject_v this_o glorious_a head_n jesus_n christ_n from_o rule_v over_o we_o as_o the_o israelite_n when_o they_o refuse_v that_o aristocratical_a

be_v more_o foolish_a then_o to_o think_v it_o needful_a to_o have_v a_o visible_a universal_a high_a priest_n on_o earth_n because_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n invisible_a to_o we_o touch_v his_o

be_v not_o visible_a to_o they_o so_o we_o stand_v here_o below_o in_o the_o entry_n our_o high_a priest_n be_v but_o go_v into_o the_o holy_a sanctuary_n and_o we_o though_o his_o divine_a nature_n
