not_o ignorant_a that_o christ_n give_v the_o apostle_n great_a power_n howbeit_o with_o limitation_n and_o but_o for_o the_o beginning_n and_o for_o a_o certain_a time_n according_a as_o matthew_n

shall_v he_o take_v it_o upon_o he_o hitherto_o i_o have_v make_v discourse_n of_o the_o key_n with_o as_o much_o bréefnesse_n and_o plainness_n as_o i_o can_v whereby_o i_o trust_v that_o such_o as_o shut_v not_o their_o eye_n of_o malice_n may_v perceive_v that_o the_o key_n be_v for_o a_o other_o thing_n than_o the_o papist_n face_v we_o withal_o doubtless_o not_o a_o absolute_a over_o thing_n
