i_o these_o be_v our_o principal_a reason_n to_o declare_v that_o saint_n peter_n be_v not_o appoint_v lord_n over_o the_o church_n and_o that_o he_o have_v no_o more_o authority_n or_o pre-eminence_n

through_o the_o truth_n now_o he_o have_v sanctify_v we_o by_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o effect_n be_v call_v the_o spirit_n of_o
