look_v to_o it_o it_o be_v ready_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v a_o disserence_n betwixt_o the_o bishop_n and_o the_o defendant_n as_o to_o riches_n etc._n etc._n but_o what_o then_o as_o a_o prelate_n a_o poor_a prelate_n have_v as_o much_o right_n to_o his_o privilege_n as_o the_o rich_a and_o more_o need_n of_o it_o a_o great_a deal_v it_o be_v hard_o to_o pull_v off_o hair_n from_o the_o bald_a crown_n or_o to_o rob_v the_o hospital_n but_o there_o be_v no_o charity_n nor_o reason_n to_o take_v the_o few_o hair_n from_o the_o bald_a crown_n to_o make_v a_o wigg_n on_o for_o he_o that_o have_v a_o good_a head_n of_o hair_n of_o his_o own_o and_o needs_o no_o wigg_n nor_o such_o superfluous_a additament_n i_o grant_v indeed_o bishop_n be_v prelate_n and_o baron_n too_o so_o be_v the_o

bishop_n a_o sort_n or_o kind_n of_o baron_n not_o such_o baron_n as_o the_o temporal_a lord_n who_o can_v forfeit_v they_o to_o the_o king_n nor_o the_o king_n can_v seize_v they_o for_o contempt_n as_o aforesaid_a therefore_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a difference_n betwixt_o a_o baron_n who_o be_v a_o peer_n of_o the_o realm_n and_o a_o spiritual_a baron_n the_o one_o be_v magnas_fw-la natus_fw-la
