of_o all_o asia_n to_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o circuit_n of_o those_o 7._o church_n notwithstanding_o if_o this_o be_v his_o meaning_n he_o play_v the_o sophister_n in_o his_o induction_n for_o by_o city_n &_o country_n in_o his_o conclusion_n which_o be_v the_o assumpon_n of_o his_o principal_a syllogism_n he_o mean_v paroikian_n et_fw-fr thoran_n which_o be_v the_o part_n of_o a_o diocese_n and_o his_o meaning_n must_v be_v the_o same_o in_o the_o two_o last_o church_n philadelphia_n and_o thyatira_n wherefore_o together_o well_o hang_v together_o his_o argument_n hang_v together_o in_o this_o fashion_n of_o the_o 7._o church_n 5._o contain_v mother_n city_n &_o the_o province_n subject_a to_o they_o the_o other_o two_o contain_v diocesan_n city_n &_o the_o country_n to_o they_o belong_v ergo_fw-la every_o of_o those_o church_n be_v of_o a_o like_a circuit_n and_o constitution_n in_o contain_v a_o diocesan_n country_n together_o with_o the_o city_n but_o if_o that_o be_v true_a which_o he_o say_v of_o philadelphia_n and_o thyatira_n that_o the_o one_o be_v subject_a to_o sardis_n the_o other_o to_o pergamus_n then_o be_v the_o church_n of_o philadelphia_n &_o thyatira_n contain_v within_o the_o circuit_n of_o sardis_n and_o pergamus_n as_o part_n of_o the_o country_n &_o province_n subject_a to_o those_o city_n and_o hence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o these_o 7._o church_n be_v not_o of_o one_o form_n and_o constitution_n but_o of_o differ_v condition_n some_o be_v only_a diocesan_n the_o rest_n metropolitan_a or_o provincial_a church_n so_o that_o like_v as_o his_o first_o speech_n general_o deliver_v of_o all_o 7._o that_o they_o be_v great_a and_o ample_a city_n be_v now_o limit_v to_o those_o 5._o mother_n city_n pag._n 45._o so_o in_o his_o

that_o scarce_o any_o one_o proposition_n or_o assumption_n in_o his_o reason_n may_v be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v true_a but_o he_o comfort_v himself_o in_o vain_a as_o the_o issue_n have_v already_o &_o i_o doubt_v not_o will_v hereafter_o show_v when_o he_o say_v his_o refuters_n hap_n be_v so_o hard_a that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o prove_v any_o one_o either_o proposition_n or_o
