many_o as_o shall_v hereafter_o by_o peter_n example_n confess_v i_o to_o be_v christ_n the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o by_o this_o true_a faith_n settle_v themselves_o upon_o i_o the_o

the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n can_v be_v the_o rock_n the_o head_n &_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n and_o lest_o any_o man_n may_v think_v this_o thing_n hard_a and_o vary_a from_o

neither_o may_v the_o head_n at_o any_o time_n be_v from_o the_o body_n without_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o body_n see_v then_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o only_a head_n of_o the_o church_n it_o
