of_o the_o interreign_a which_o you_o will_v insinuate_v to_o be_v occasion_v by_o the_o intermission_n of_o episcopacy_n i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v sect_n and_o heresy_n even_o in_o the_o

in_o their_o own_o time_n and_o yet_o i_o doubt_v not_o you_o will_v acknowledge_v there_o be_v bishop_n in_o the_o church_n even_o in_o those_o time_n so_o that_o episcopacy_n if_o it_o be_v not_o coercive_a be_v no_o such_o remedy_n against_o sect_n and_o heresy_n as_o you_o will_v have_v we_o believe_v and_o if_o it_o be_v coercive_a it_o be_v not_o pure_o christian_n and_o spiritual_n but_o in_o so_o much_o have_v something_o in_o it_o of_o secular_a and_o worldly_a thus_o i_o have_v reinforce_v my_o main_a argument_n and_o remove_v such_o exception_n as_o you_o take_v against_o it_o and_o now_o i_o shall_v not_o make_v your_o trouble_n much_o long_o but_o to_o elucidate_v some_o incident_a and_o by_o passage_n which_o i_o will_v do_v with_o all_o the_o brevity_n i_o can_v and_o without_o formality_n of_o method_n only_o as_o they_o come_v to_o my_o mind_n peter_n be_v first_o name_v where_o ever_o the_o whole_a college_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v call_v over_o but_o i_o do_v not_o in●er_v nor_o do_v it_o enforce_v that_o any_o primacy_n be_v due_a unto_o he_o other_o than_o that_o of_o precedence_n which_o all_o protestant_n general_o speak_v allow_v he_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o james_n at_o the_o council_n of_o jerusalem_n speak_v with_o more_o authority_n than_o the_o other_o apostle_n as_o bishop_n of_o the_o place_n and_o precedent_n of_o the_o synod_n jesephus_n indeed_o take_v notice_n of_o he_o under_o a_o eminent_a character_n for_o piety_n but_o not_o a_o word_n in_o that_o author_n of_o his_o eminent_a dignity_n as_o a_o prelate_n as_o for_o

of_o his_o be_v the_o lord_n brother_n gal._n 1._o 19_o and_o consequent_o be_v no_o great_a argument_n of_o his_o prelacy_n in_o the_o modern_a sense_n of_o that_o word_n so_o zomen_n censure_n of_o the_o practice_n of_o have_v more_o bishop_n than_o one_o in_o one_o city_n do_v prove_v that_o practice_n though_o he_o do_v not_o approve_v it_o epiphanius_n also_o be_v cite_v by_o many_o to_o
