that_o old_a serpent_n the_o devil_n who_o be_v say_v to_o give_v his_o power_n and_o his_o throne_n and_o great_a authority_n unto_o it_o and_o therefore_o unlawful_a neither_o can_v i_o conceive_v it_o to_o be_v any_o other_o civil_a dominion_n for_o the_o same_o reason_n but_o to_o be_v short_a i_o understand_v it_o to_o be_v a_o ecclesiastical_a state_n or_o dominion_n and_o in_o particular_a that_o dominion_n which_o be_v call_v the_o catholic_a church_n representative_a consist_v of_o the_o prelacy_n and_o preisthood_n of_o many_o nation_n as_o patriarch_n cardinal_n archbishop_n
