thus_o far_o clear_v before_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o main_a thing_n behind_o to_o wit_n to_o demonstrate_v that_o bishop_n be_v a_o distinct_a order_n from_o and_o above_o presbyter_n by_o that_o authority_n they_o have_v receive_v from_o christ_n i_o shall_v deduce_v some_o few_o corollary_n from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v such_o as_o 1._o it_o be_v evident_a from_o hence_o that_o when_o the_o apostle_n ordain_v bishop_n they_o do_v it_o by_o authority_n give_v they_o by_o our_o saviour_n and_o not_o only_o in_o pursuance_n of_o a_o jewish_a custom_n of_o create_v elder_n which_o

christianity_n st._n paul_n when_o a_o jew_n and_o a_o most_o violent_a persecutor_n of_o christ_n church_n have_v have_v as_o full_a authority_n to_o make_v bishop_n as_o when_o a_o apostle_n and_o must_v have_v derive_v it_o not_o from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o he_o constant_o affirm_v but_o from_o his_o master_n gamaliel_n 2._o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o bishop_n have_v not_o their_o authority_n from_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o designation_n of_o a_o person_n to_o a_o office_n and_o the_o give_v he_o authority_n in_o it_o thus_o a_o mayor_n of_o a_o corporation_n be_v choose_v by_o the_o burgess_n of_o it_o but_o receive_v his_o authority_n from_o the_o king_n alone_o and_o so_o in_o many_o other_o instance_n and_o therefore_o this_o assertion_n of_o we_o can_v be_v suspect_v as_o any_o way_n prejudicial_a to_o our_o prince_n ancient_n right_o of_o elect_v bishop_n the_o church_n be_v a_o society_n and_o body_n politic_a distinct_a from_o that_o of_o the_o commonwealth_n which_o appear_v from_o hence_o that_o it_o do_v subsist_v when_o separate_v from_o and_o persecute_v by_o all_o civil-power_n it_o be_v found_v upon_o principle_n different_a from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o common_a notion_n of_o mankind_n and_o settle_v by_o divine_a positive_a law_n and_o consequent_o the_o government_n of_o it_o must_v be_v proportionable_a and_o they_o who_o resolve_v to_o hold_v the_o contrary_a opinion_n may_v take_v its_o foundation_n along_o with_o it_o and_o believe_v the_o gospel_n itself_o to_o be_v no_o law_n but_o as_o enact_v by_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n 3._o we_o may_v hence_o infer_v that_o all_o other_o bishop_n be_v not_o mere_o substitute_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n and_o that_o he_o in_o the_o right_n of_o st._n peter_n be_v not_o the_o only_a bishop_n who_o have_v his_o authority_n from_o christ_n so_o that_o all_o must_v receive_v they_o from_o he_o this_o be_v
