they_o divide_v their_o parish_n into_o so_o many_o district_n and_o according_o for_o every_o district_n once_o a_o year_n they_o public_o appoint_v the_o time_n and_o place_n when_o they_o intend_v

the_o peculiar_a mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o all_o other_o knowledge_n or_o preach_v be_v of_o little_a value_n in_o respect_n of_o teach_v these_o and_o the_o minister_n that_o teach_v

of_o christ._n you_o see_v then_o from_o the_o declaration_n of_o your_o own_o party_n that_o a_o lawful_a ministry_n be_v require_v to_o the_o due_a administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o
