after_o the_o manner_n of_o that_o church_n and_o so_o by_o understand_v the_o scripture_n after_o the_o interpretation_n and_o sense_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n the_o bishop_n have_v his_o

such_o a_o representer_n as_o he_o set_v up_o for_o shall_v be_v always_o provide_v with_o well_o but_o however_o the_o tract_n be_v moderate_a and_o peaceable_a without_o any_o severe_a word_n or_o
