if_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n have_v in_o those_o day_n presume_v to_o have_v break_v down_o all_o the_o ancient_a mound_n and_o boundary_n of_o jurisdiction_n the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d of_o the_o council_n of_o nice_a and_o have_v in_o a_o word_n but_o offer_v at_o such_o a_o audacious_a attempt_n as_o a_o universal_a monarchy_n over_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o christ_n that_o they_o will_v not_o have_v be_v take_v notice_n of_o by_o those_o council_n as_o they_o be_v by_o other_o afterward_o and_o by_o the_o african_a bishop_n during_o that_o time_n yes_o he_o may_v assure_v himself_o we_o shall_v have_v have_v a_o brand_n of_o infamy_n set_v upon_o they_o that_o will_v have_v last_v to_o all_o posterity_n if_o any_o but_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v the_o keep_n of_o the_o record_n but_o there_o be_v something_o behind_o still_o in_o this_o paragraph_n which_o look_v as_o if_o he_o be_v fond_a of_o it_o &_o therefore_o we_o must_v do_v it_o the_o civility_n of_o a_o remark_n and_o that_o be_v that_o the_o ancient_a father_n urge_v the_o continue_a succession_n of_o these_o very_a bishop_n of_o rome_n as_o a_o argument_n of_o the_o true_a

of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o those_o day_n be_v no_o way_n concern_v in_o the_o present_a debate_n for_o the_o church_n over_o which_o the_o bishop_n we_o speak_v of_o preside_v may_v be_v sound_a in_o the_o faith_n for_o the_o pope_n universal_a jurisdiction_n be_v then_o no_o article_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o they_o through_o passion_n inadvertency_n or_o perhaps_o natural_a ambition_n lay_v the_o first_o foundation_n of_o that_o monstrous_a fabric_n of_o papal_a power_n that_o after-age_n build_v upon_o it_o i_o shall_v not_o here_o enter_v upon_o a_o discourse_n concern_v the_o proof_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o doctrine_n by_o succession_n of_o bishop_n because_o the_o adviser_n use_v it_o only_o as_o a_o medium_fw-la to_o prove_v though_o poor_a man_n he_o have_v make_v but_o

fair_a than_o by_o blacken_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o must_v tell_v he_o in_o return_n that_o in_o my_o mind_n they_o be_v equal_o impertinent_a who_o will_v wash_v a_o aethiopian_a white_a and_o who_o will_v paint_v he_o black_a than_o he_o be_v in_o the_o next_o paragraph_n about_o image-worship_n he_o palliate_v very_o fine_o as_o if_o paint_n and_o varnish_n be_v still_o as_o requisite_a to_o a_o discourse_n upon_o that_o indefensible_a subject_n as_o to_o the_o subject_n itself_o the_o confuter_n hint_v brief_o to_o he_o by_o what_o advance_v image-worship_n creep_v up_o

it_o hence_o follow_v that_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o england_n be_v equal_o lay_v on_o she_o back_o with_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o religious_o worship_v they_o be_v there_o no_o

consquence_n so_o big_a with_o absurdity_n that_o a_o man_n needs_o but_o name_n they_o to_o expose_v they_o but_o after_o all_o the_o church_n of_o england_n have_v no_o such_o doctrine_n that_o i_o

i_o do_v not_o i_o can_v i_o will_v not_o deny_v that_o idolatry_n be_v gross_o commit_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o rude_a sort_n at_o least_o be_v not_o excusable_a who_o go_v to_o it_o
