the_o oath_n say_v not_o bare_o that_o she_o be_v the_o supreme_a governor_n in_o all_o cause_n spiritual_a and_o ecclesiastical_a where_o supreme_a governor_n may_v possible_o be_v in_o sense_n the_o

which_o it_o will_v be_v treason_n to_o deny_v she_o not_o only_o in_o all_o those_o spiritual_a and_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n of_o which_o only_o we_o have_v show_v the_o oath_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o common_a sense_n of_o those_o word_n as_o they_o be_v use_v in_o law_n but_o also_o in_o the_o most_o spiritual_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v imagine_v as_o in_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o trinity_n incarnation_n and_o the_o like_a for_o she_o be_v by_o her_o office_n the_o temporal_a rewarder_n of_o this_o virtue_n and_o punisher_n of_o iâ—s_n contrary_a vice_n which_o be_v to_o be_v a_o

it_o be_v who_o best_o understand_v it_o that_o she_o take_v only_o what_o k._n h._n 8_o and_o k._n ed._n 6_o take_v to_o wit_n in_o the_o act_n which_o she_o like_v and_o revive_v and_o not_o in_o

mistake_v she_o to_o take_v any_o thing_n that_o in_o they_o may_v seem_v uncatholick_a and_o what_o be_v of_o ancient_n which_o be_v the_o same_o as_o catholic_n time_n due_a to_o the_o crown_n now_o what_o k._n h._n 8_o take_v which_o only_o be_v to_o our_o purpose_n all_o that_o k._n ed._n 6_o may_v do_v remain_v by_o she_o repeal_v we_o have_v large_o and_o i_o think_v full_o see_v to_o

since_o those_o parliament_n evident_o know_v their_o king_n be_v neither_o bishop_n nor_o priest_n which_o even_o in_o their_o thought_n be_v the_o same_o as_o not_o to_o have_v power_n to_o act_n
