think_v that_o this_o word_n high_a mai_fw-gr not_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o dignity_n of_o a_o bishop_n why_o do_v you_o not_o in_o like_a manner_n detest_v the_o name_n of_o highness_n in_o the_o majesty_n of_o a_o king_n no_o say_v you_o it_o be_v very_o wise_o provide_v that_o all_o the_o magistrate_n and_o prince_n in_o england_n shall_v have_v one_o supreme_a prince_n who_o they_o shall_v

ought_v to_o be_v always_o one_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o there_o be_v one_o supreme_a power_n of_o a_o high_a bishop_n who_o authority_n all_o other_o bishop_n shall_v reverence_v for_o otherwise_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o there_o arise_v much_o debate_n and_o many_o pestilent_a sect_n to_o the_o great_a ruin_n and_o decay_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o the_o church_n be_v bring_v thereby_o into_o very_o great_a danger_n for_o if_o within_o the_o space_n of_o forty_o year_n sense_n a_o great_a piece_n of_o germany_n and_o afterwards_o england_n fall_v from_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n so_o many_o s●ditions_n have_v rise_v amongst_o the_o prince_n of_o your_o religion_n that_o they_o can_v not_o possible_o agree_v neither_o with_o other_o man_n neither_o yet_o within_o themselves_o what_o end_n think_v you_o will_v ensue_v in_o case_n all_o christendom_n the_o which_o god_n forbid_v be_v thereunto_o procure_v and_o move_v by_o your_o diligence_n and_o unreasonable_a mean_n shall_v rebel_v with_o the_o like_a outrage_n and_o madness_n it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o as_o in_o england_n there_o be_v one_o supreme_a power_n which_o comprehend●th_v all_o other_o prince_n underneth_o it_o so_o there_o be_v also_o in_o the_o church_n one_o supreme_a authority_n the_o which_o all_o other_o inferior_a power_n must_v willing_o and_o diligent_o obey_v for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o the_o crewel_fw-mi tempest_n rise_v in_o the_o church_n shall_v ever_o be_v slake_v or_o the_o flame_n of_o discord_n quench_v or_o the_o civil_a war_n end_v now_o for_o so_o much_o as_o christ_n be_v the_o author_n of_o peace_n whosoever_o will_v say_v that_o they_o will_v have_v but_o one_o only_a bishop_n which_o be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o the_o religious_a pretence_n of_o this_o word_n will_v open_v a_o gap_n to_o so_o many_o opinion_n and_o to_o so_o much_o pestilent_a dissension_n they_o be_v liar_n no_o they_o do_v rather_o fight_v against_o christ_n and_o worship_n satan_n the_o author_n of_o debate_n and_o discord_n but_o contrary_a wise_n such_o as_o honour_v and_o reverence_v the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n as_o the_o vicar_n of_o christ_n for_o that_o respect_n only_o because_o he_o be_v the_o lieutenant_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o earth_n they_o do_v in_o deed_n acknowledge_v only_a christ_n to_o be_v
