mighty_a wound_n when_o he_o give_v his_o holy_a spirit_n unto_o his_o apostle_n phylyp_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o he_o do_v it_o to_o wound_n the_o holy_a spirit_n shewe●_n in_o wound_n

church_n signify_v congregation_n and_o assemble_v v_o eph._n v_o but_o i_o do_v take_v it_o and_o understand_v it_o here_o for_o the_o assemble_v of_o the_o true_a and_o faithful_a christian_n

phy._n it_o do_v signify_v universal_a and_o therefore_o do_v i_o say_v i_o believe_v the_o universal_a church_n because_o the_o church_n do_v signify_v all_o assemble_v and_o congregation_n where_o the_o fayethfull_a be_v assemble_v as_o be_v the_o church_n of_o cho●hi_n of_o rome_n galathiens_n and_o othere_o like_a i_o will_v declare_v that_o there_o be_v one_o catholyke_a church_n that_o be_v to_o say_v universal_a and_o general_a comprehend_v all_o the_o other_o the_o which_o be_v general_o sow_v through_o all_o the_o world_n only_o know_v of_o the_o only_a god_n which_o know_v the_o

shall_v seem_v rather_o to_o disperation_n separation_n and_o confution_n phylype_n therefore_o must_v we_o considre_v this_o invisible_a the_o church_n invisible_a church_n spiritual_o and_o must_v
