A69535	The grand debate between the most reverend bishops and the Presbyterian divines appointed by His Sacred Majesty as commissioners for the review and alteration of the Book of common prayer, &c. : being an exact account of their whole proceedings : the most perfect copy.

the_o reserve_v of_o confirmation_n to_o the_o bishop_n do_v argue_v the_o dignity_n of_o the_o bishop_n above_o presbyter_n who_o be_v not_o allow_v to_o confirm_v but_o do_v not_o argue_v any_o
