only_o and_o such_o a_o universal_a bishop_n say_v master_n bellarmine_n saint_n gregory_n condemn_v and_o do_v he_o not_o otherwise_o condemn_v john_n of_o constantinople_n his_o pride_n but_o because_o he_o will_v have_v no_o bishop_n but_o himself_o no_o master_n bellarmine_n the_o story_n be_v more_o plain_a answer_n then_o that_o such_o shift_n may_v go_v for_o currant_n the_o controversy_n be_v whether_o the_o bishop_n of_o constantinople_n shall_v be_v as_o now_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n be_v in_o his_o own_o account_n a_o bishop_n above_o all_o bishop_n read_v all_o the_o history_n and_o it_o will_v easy_o appear_v his_o endeavour_n be_v only_o to_o have_v the_o command_a of_o other_o bishop_n neither_o can_v he_o be_v call_v universal_a if_o he_o be_v the_o only_a bishop_n but_o rather_o the_o singular_a bishop_n but_o master_n bellarmine_n bring_v two_o or_o three_o testimony_n out_o of_o gregory_n wherein_o he_o complain_v that_o john_n patriarch_n of_o constantinople_n will_v be_v bishop_n alone_o gregory_n meaning_n be_v plain_a enough_o that_o he_o say_v he_o will_v only_o be_v bishop_n because_o he_o only_o will_v have_v the_o command_a of_o all_o that_o other_o shall_v indeed_o be_v his_o suffragans_n and_o at_o his_o commandment_n which_o reason_n of_o gregory_n against_o that_o title_n of_o universal_a bishop_n if_o it_o be_v well_o mark_v give_v i_o think_v a_o wound_n uncurable_a to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n a_o sovereign_a authority_n in_o one_o to_o command_v all_o say_v he_o be_v to_o take_v away_o all_o bishop_n but_o that_o one_o only_o but_o such_o sovereign_a authority_n over_o bishop_n the_o pope_n do_v challenge_v in_o this_o name_n of_o universal_a bishop_n as_o experience_n teach_v therefore_o he_o make_v himself_o the_o only_a bishop_n and_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o gregory_n so_o mislyke_v in_o john_n bishop_n of_o constantinople_n therefore_o i_o can_v see_v how_o it_o can_v be_v tolerable_a in_o he_o of_o rome_n but_o one_o may_v be_v call_v a_o universal_a bishop_n say_v he_o in_o another_o sense_n as_o he_o have_v a_o care_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o so_o the_o pope_n may_v be_v call_v a_o universal_a bishop_n but_o herein_o master_n bellarmine_n give_v very_o little_a authority_n to_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n 187_o for_o this_o general_a care_n belong_v not_o only_o
