priest_n as_o it_o signify_v a_o man_n appoint_v to_o sacrifice_n be_v 〈◊〉_d sacerdos_fw-la and_o not_o presbyter_n the_o name_n which_o the_o apostle_n give_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v

to_o change_v the_o mark_n of_o thing_n which_o they_o have_v steal_v so_o you_o to_o make_v the_o priesthood_n of_o christ_n seem_v your_o own_o do_v change_n name_n as_o mark_n of_o thing_n which_o

〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d not_o only_o in_o english_a but_o in_o other_o language_n both_o french_a and_o italian_a why_o do_v not_o your_o translatour_n keep_v this_o according_a to_o the_o
