they_o do_v excel_v they_o as_o far_o as_o lead_n do_v gold_n and_o therefore_o must_v emperor_n bow_v down_o their_o head_n under_o the_o knee_n of_o the_o pope_n as_o be_v plain_o set_v forth_o by_o the_o holy_a father_n pope_n gelasius_n write_v unto_o the_o emperor_n anastasius_n and_o register_v in_o the_o decree_n yea_o they_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n father_n &_o master_n to_o
