A12213	A reply to an ansvvere, made by a popish adversarie, to the two chapters in the first part of that booke, which is intituled a Friendly advertisement to the pretended Catholickes in Ireland Wherein, those two points; concerning his Majejesties [sic] supremacie, and the religion, established by the lawes and statutes of the kingdome, be further justified and defended against the vaine cavils and exceptions of that adversarie: by Christopher Sibthorp, Knight, one of His Majesties iustices of his Court of Chiefe Place within the same realme.

and_o confute_v the_o imagination_n and_o devise_v of_o his_o own_o brain_n for_o the_o affirmative_a clause_n in_o the_o oath_n be_v not_o as_o he_o imperfect_o and_o lame_o relate_v it_o but_o it_o be_v this_o that_o the_o king_n be_v the_o only_a supreme_a governor_n of_o this_o realm_n and_o of_o all_o other_o his_o highness_n dominion_n and_o country_n aswell_o in_o all_o spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n or_o cause_n as_o temporal_a the_o negative_a clause_n follow_v and_o be_v this_o that_o no_o foreign_a prince_n person_n prelate_n state_n or_o potentate_n have_v or_o aught_o to_o have_v any_o jurisdiction_n power_n superiority_n pre-eminence_n or_o authority_n ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a within_o this_o realm_n this_o word_n only_o in_o the_o affirmative_a clause_n have_v he_o leave_v out_o which_o if_o he_o have_v add_v together_o with_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o word_n that_o follow_v in_o that_o affirmative_a clause_n he_o will_v very_o easy_o have_v find_v that_o to_o be_v true_a which_o i_o write_v namely_o that_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o negative_a clause_n be_v include_v in_o the_o former_a affirmative_a for_o he_o that_o affirm_v the_o king_n to_o be_v the_o only_a supreme_a governor_n within_o his_o own_o dominion_n &_o that_o in_o all_o thing_n or_o cause_n spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a aswell_o as_o temporal_a do_v in_o that_o speech_n exclude_v every_o foreign_a prince_n person_n prelate_n state_n or_o potentate_n from_o have_v any_o supreme_a government_n or_o any_o government_n at_o all_o without_o his_o leave_n and_o licence_n within_o his_o dominion_n yea_o it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o the_o former_a affirmative_a clause_n include_v the_o negative_a clause_n and_o more_o for_o the_o negative_a clause_n exclude_v foreign_a prince_n person_n prelate_n state_n &_o potentate_n only_o from_o ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a authority_n but_o the_o former_a affirmative_a exclude_v they_o from_o authority_n in_o all_o thing_n or_o cause_n both_o temporal_a &_o spiritual_a again_o you_o see_v that_o the_o negative_a clause_n extend_v only_o to_o foreign_a person_n but_o the_o affirmative_a clause_n extend_v to_o any_o person_n whosoever_o whether_o foreign_a or_o domestical_a three_o the_o negative_a clause_n exclude_v foreign_a person_n from_o have_v any_o jurisdiction_n power_n superiority_n pre-eminence_n or_o authority_n ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a within_o this_o realm_n but_o the_o former_a affirmative_a clause_n extend_v not_o only_o to_o this_o realm_n or_o that_o realm_n in_o particular_a but_o general_o to_o all_o his_o majesty_n realm_n dominion_n &_o country_n so_o that_o the_o former_a affirmative_a clause_n in_o the_o oath_n appear_v to_o be_v much_o more_o general_a and_o of_o a_o far_o large_a extent_n than_o the_o negative_a be_v and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v i_o speak_v true_o and_o within_o compass_n when_o i_o say_v though_o in_o a_o parenthesis_n that_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o negative_a clause_n be_v include_v in_o the_o former_a affirmative_a i_o do_v not_o say_v as_o my_o adversary_n suppose_v i_o to_o hold_v that_o the_o regal_a power_n include_v the_o sacerdotal_a or_o episcopal_a this_o be_v but_o his_o own_o dream_n &_o imagination_n in_o the_o confutation_n whereof_o he_o labour_v in_o vain_a for_o neither_o i_o nor_o any_o of_o the_o protestant_n do_v hold_v that_o opinion_n but_o contrariwise_o do_v hold_v they_o to_o be_v thing_n distinct_a as_o be_v before_o declare_v but_o because_o he_o will_v needs_o carp_v at_o my_o logic_n when_o he_o have_v no_o cause_n let_v other_o man_n judge_v what_o a_o great_a logician_n he_o be_v whilst_o he_o argue_v thus_o the_o regal_a power_n include_v not_o the_o sacerdotal_a ergo_fw-la the_o affirmative_a clause_n in_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n include_v not_o the_o negative_a clause_n in_o the_o same_o oath_n hitherto_o than_o you_o see_v that_o my_o adversary_n notwithstanding_o all_o his_o storish_n brag_v and_o bravado_n have_v show_v himself_o to_o be_v not_o only_o a_o puny_a lawyer_n as_o he_o confess_v himself_o to_o be_v but_o a_o puny_a logician_n also_o &_o most_o of_o all_o a_o puny_a divine_a and_o that_o he_o have_v not_o be_v able_a to_o make_v any_o good_a answer_n or_o to_o refel_v and_o confute_v any_o one_o argument_n contain_v in_o this_o first_o chapter_n of_o my_o former_a book_n concern_v the_o supremacy_n and_o yet_o have_v he_o also_o leave_v a_o great_a part_n of_o that_o chapter_n unanswered_a neither_o have_v he_o make_v throughout_o his_o whole_a discourse_n and_o plead_v so_o much_o as_o one_o good_a argument_n to_o prove_v his_o client_n cause_n that_o be_v the_o pope_n supremacy_n though_o he_o purpose_v and_o labour_v to_o do_v it_o where_o be_v it_o not_o a_o marvel_n that_o he_o be_v a_o lawyer_n and_o a_o subject_a to_o our_o sovereign_a lord_n the_o king_n will_v date_n nevertheless_o admit_v of_o such_o a_o client_n as_o the_o pope_n be_v and_o of_o his_o cause_n which_o he_o know_v before_o hand_n to_o be_v condemn_v by_o the_o law_n and_o statute_n of_o the_o realm_n and_o which_o he_o now_o may_v see_v if_o he_o see_v it_o not_o before_o to_o be_v also_o condemn_v by_o the_o law_n and_o statute_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o by_o all_o the_o most_o ancient_a ecclesiastical_a record_n but_o if_o he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a of_o such_o a_o client_n and_o his_o cause_n his_o client_n i_o suppose_v will_v be_v ashamed_a of_o he_o and_o entertain_v he_o no_o long_o to_o plead_v for_o he_o unless_o he_o can_v do_v it_o better_o and_o yet_o indeed_o when_o his_o client_n cause_n be_v foul_a &_o naught_o as_o here_o it_o appear_v to_o be_v what_o lawyer_n be_v he_o never_o so_o learned_a or_o what_o divine_a be_v he_o never_o so_o profound_a be_v able_a to_o justify_v it_o or_o to_o make_v it_o good_a notwithstanding_o his_o demurrer_n therefore_o and_o notwithstanding_o that_o by_o this_o his_o plea_n his_o purpose_n be_v to_o arrest_v and_o stay_v man_n judgement_n i_o trust_v they_o will_v all_o now_o no_o cause_n appear_v to_o the_o contrary_a proceed_v without_o any_o further_a delay_n to_o give_v their_o sentence_n against_o his_o client_n &_o for_o &_o in_o the_o behalf_n of_o these_o two_o most_o worthy_a &_o peerless_a
