our_o sovereign_a charles_n the_o martyr_n in_o his_o sacred_a write_n have_v so_o clear_o approve_v and_o vindicate_v episcopacy_n from_o the_o false_a aspersion_n of_o the_o presbiterian_a faction_n

and_o the_o government_n of_o bishop_n have_v be_v the_o universal_a and_o constant_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n so_o that_o as_o charles_n the_o martyr_n write_v ever_o since_o the_o first_o

they_o under_o who_o jurisdiction_n and_o government_n they_o be_v therefore_o let_v not_o the_o aspire_a currish_a presbiterian_a who_o will_v pull_v down_o a_o bishop_n in_o every_o diocese_n but_o set_v up_o a_o pope_n in_o every_o parish_n no_o long_o spit_v venom_n against_o the_o reverend_a bishop_n and_o true_o i_o think_v their_o ground_n be_v so_o slender_a against_o episcopacy_n that_o
