likewise_o so_o to_o have_v but_o they_o find_v no_o need_n thereof_o but_o paul_n declare_v in_o the_o 7._o chap._n of_o the_o 1._o epistle_n to_o the_o corin._n that_o he_o that_o have_v no_o

he_o say_v let_v every_o man_n have_v his_o wife_n and_o every_o woman_n her_o husband_n by_o this_o place_n of_o scripture_n i_o understand_v doctrine_n that_o bishop_n &_o priest_n may_v have_v

if_o he_o marry_v he_o sin_v not_o so_o then_o he_o debate_v the_o scripture_n with_o i_o divers_a way_n that_o a_o bishop_n nor_o a_o priest_n ought_v not_o to_o have_v a_o wife_n but_o i_o prove_v by_o diverse_a scripture_n both_o in_o the_o old_a law_n &_o in_o the_o new_a 2._o that_o woman_n be_v at_o first_o make_v for_o the_o help_n of_o man_n the_o which_o be_v speak_v general_o to_o all_o

they_o be_v true_a minister_n of_o jesus_n christ_n &_o of_o that_o order_n that_o bishop_n &_o deacon_n be_v in_o paul_n tyme._n marry_o for_o paul_n declare_v to_o tim._n 1._o and_o the_o 3._o that_o a_o bishop_n shall_v be_v the_o husband_n of_o one_o wife_n &_o how_o they_o shall_v be_v honest_o apparel_v and_o how_o they_o shall_v bring_v up_o their_o child_n and_o likewise_o the_o deacon_n this_o say_v i_o proove_v more_o plain_o that_o both_o bishop_n &_o deacon_n have_v wyve_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n the_o which_o he_o can_v not_o deny_v but_o then_o he_o allege_v that_o no_o bishop_n nor_o priest_n may_v take_v a_o wife_n after_o he_o have_v take_v upon_o he_o that_o office_n but_o if_o he_o have_v a_o wife_n before_o he_o take_v the_o office_n try_v meet_v for_o the_o purpose_n for_o his_o life_n and_o for_o his_o learning_n he_o may_v keep_v his_o wife_n and_o bring_v up_o his_o child_n according_a to_o s._n paul_n mead_v to_o timothy_n or_o else_o may_v they_o have_v no_o wyve_n then_o say_v i_o i_o think_v paul_n meaning_n in_o that_o place_n be_v that_o a_o man_n that_o have_v have_v two_o wife_n may_v not_o be_v make_v a_o bishop_n nor_o a_o deacon_n if_o he_o have_v never_o so_o much_o learning_n but_o that_o place_n make_v not_o that_o a_o bishop_n or_o a_o deacon_n may_v not_o marry_v after_o they_o be_v make_v bishop_n and_o deacon_n for_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o paul_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o a_o bishop_n when_o he_o say_v he_o have_v power_n to_o lead_v about_o a_o sister_n to_o wife_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o apostle_n have_v here_o paul_n declare_v maâ—y_v that_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o have_v a_o wife_n after_o he_o have_v the_o office_n of_o a_o bishop_n which_o be_v not_o in_o his_o power_n if_o he_o have_v be_v forbid_v of_o god_n thus_o have_v i_o show_v you_o my_o mind_n in_o this_o behalf_n both_o of_o paul_n and_o also_o for_o the_o marriage_n of_o bishop_n and_o priest_n as_o i_o
