respect_n s._n augustine_n say_v 13._o aug._n l._n de_fw-fr pasto_fw-la c._n 13._o as_o you_o have_v hear_v that_o s._n peter_n receive_v his_o authority_n in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o church_n

s._n peter_n must_v always_o remain_v one_o in_o his_o successor_n and_o our_o saviour_n will_v thereby_o signify_v that_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o fold_n depend_v of_o the_o unity_n of_o that_o one_o

the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o descend_v to_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n his_o only_a successor_n which_o be_v a_o most_o strong_a argument_n in_o itself_o &_o may_v serve_v we_o
