already_o prove_v second_o the_o king_n though_o negative_o he_o forbid_v law_n to_o be_v enact_v yet_o do_v he_o not_o make_v any_o new_a law_n affirmative_o to_o tie_v all_o his_o subject_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o his_o lord_n spiritual_a lord_n temporal_a and_o the_o commons_o of_o his_o kingdom_n but_o the_o pope_n challenge_v power_n though_o most_o impudent_o and_o against_o sacred_a canon_n to_o make_v law_n to_o tie_v all_o christian_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n no_o way_n subject_n to_o he_o three_o the_o king_n take_v not_o upon_o he_o sole_o of_o himself_o to_o abrogate_v cassiere_n or_o disannul_v any_o act_n of_o parliament_n to_o which_o he_o former_o give_v his_o consent_n but_o the_o pope_n take_v roundly_o though_o fond_o upon_o he_o sole_o of_o

the_o precinct_n thereof_o but_o all_o the_o four_o first_o most_o famous_a general_a council_n of_o nice_a constantinople_n ephesus_n and_o chalcedon_n all_o which_o s._n gregory_n reverence_v as_o the_o four_o gospel_n deny_v the_o pope_n false_o pretend_a primacy_n in_o all_o foreign_a and_o transmarine_a kingdom_n and_o confine_v his_o jurisdiction_n to_o the_o city_n of_o rome_n and_o to_o the_o suburbican_n territory_n of_o the_o same_o all_o which_o be_v sound_o and_o plentiful_o prove_v in_o the_o conclusion_n and_o aphorism_n next_o aforego_v b._n c._n but_o it_o may_v be_v bell_n will_v say_v that_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o council_n belong_v not_o to_o the_o pope_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o he_o dare_v offer_v it_o t._n b._n i_o answer_v first_o that_o see_v
