of_o their_o jurisdiction_n which_o be_v as_o great_a as_o either_o their_o birthright_n from_o their_o ancestor_n or_o their_o sword-right_a from_o god_n make_v they_o and_o therefore_o moses_n

and_o spacious_a and_o that_o their_o time_n be_v to_o be_v divide_v between_o their_o labour_n as_o well_o in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n as_o government_n and_o jurisdiction_n but_o i_o do_v
