be_v no_o reason_n of_o his_o be_v absent_a from_o rome_n at_o the_o time_n of_o this_o epistle_n but_o it_o fall_v out_o unhappy_o that_o though_o st._n peter_n be_v make_v by_o baronius_n and_o

late_a publish_a book_n seem_v most_o agreeable_a to_o truth_n that_o st._n peter_n come_v not_o to_o rome_n till_o the_o reign_n of_o nero_n and_o not_o long_o before_o his_o martyrdom_n and_o this_o baluzius_n confess_v to_o have_v be_v the_o most_o ancient_a and_o receive_a opinion_n in_o the_o church_n since_o lactantius_n never_o dispute_v it_o and_o what_o he_o say_v of_o the_o twenty_o

by_o palladius_n which_o as_o 2._o joh._n major_n say_v be_v good_a in_o case_n of_o necessity_n but_o the_o writer_n of_o the_o legend_n live_v long_o after_o the_o time_n of_o the_o person_n frame_v their_o story_n according_a to_o the_o custom_n of_o their_o own_o time_n and_o because_o such_o a_o consecration_n be_v not_o then_o hold_v good_a therefore_o the_o author_n of_o his_o legend_n take_v care_n to_o have_v that_o defect_n supply_v at_o rome_n and_o to_o make_v amends_o he_o say_v that_o kentigern_n at_o his_o death_n recommend_v to_o his_o disciple_n the_o decree_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o the_o necessity_n of_o subjection_n to_o the_o roman_a see_v from_o the_o general_a sense_n of_o the_o british_a

the_o begin_n of_o his_o invective_n against_o the_o clergy_n among_o other_o thing_n he_o charge_v they_o that_o they_o do_v sedem_fw-la petri_n apostoli_fw-la immundis_fw-la pedibus_fw-la

and_o imply_v no_o more_o than_o their_o ecclesiastical_a function_n and_o so_o he_o oppose_v it_o to_o 60._o the_o chair_n of_o judas_n into_o which_o he_o say_v such_o wicked_a man_n fall_v but_o if_o they_o will_v carry_v st._n peter_n be_v chair_n to_o rome_n they_o must_v carry_v the_o chair_n of_o judas_n thither_o too_o 2._o 4._o alford_n insist_o on_o this_o passage_n in_o gildas_n
