A73418 Roger Widdringtons last reioynder to Mr. Thomas Fitz-Herberts Reply concerning the oath of allegiance, and the Popes power to depose princes wherein all his arguments, taken from the lawes of God, in the Old and New Testament, of nature, of nations, from the canon and ciuill law, and from the Popes breues, condemning the oath, and the cardinalls decree, forbidding two of Widdringtons bookes are answered : also many replies and instances of Cardinall Bellarmine in his Schulckenius, and of Leonard Lessius in his Singleton are confuted, and diuers cunning shifts of Cardinall Peron are discouered. Preston, Thomas, 1563-1640. 1619 (1619) STC 25599; ESTC S5197 680,529 682

this_o for_o therefore_o moses_n do_v consecrate_v aaron_n because_o there_o be_v no_o high_a priest_n that_o can_v consecrate_v he_o nor_o also_o then_o any_o inferior_a priest_n for_o that_o as_o

therefore_o he_o be_v great_a than_o he_o for_o the_o pope_n be_v consecrate_v by_o a_o cardinal_n bishop_n of_o hostia_fw-la who_o be_v inferior_a to_o the_o pope_n and_o after_o his_o consecration_n the_o pope_n do_v command_v he_o that_o consecrate_v he_o so_o also_o it_o happen_v among_o the_o high_a priest_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n for_o except_v the_o consecration_n of_o aaron_n which_o

that_o they_o will_v be_v the_o people_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o after_o they_o do_v immediate_o follow_v those_o word_n relate_v by_o cardinal_n bellarmine_n therefore_o all_o the_o people_n enter_v

of_o a_o unlawful_a queen_n and_o unjust_o usurp_v the_o kingdom_n to_o prove_v that_o a_o true_a king_n who_o be_v a_o idolater_n may_v lawful_o be_v slay_v any_o man_n that_o be_v not_o void_a of_o
