and_o from_o god_n most_o holy_a vicar_n i_o show_v the_o people_n that_o this_o thing_n ought_v nothing_o to_o move_v theym_a for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o holiness_n in_o name_n for_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o such_o holiness_n at_o rome_n and_o hereupon_o i_o take_v occasion_n to_o declare_v his_o glory_n and_o the_o pomp_n of_o rome_n the_o covetousness_n the_o unchaste_a live_n and_o the_o maintenance_n of_o all_o vice_n third_o i_o speak_v against_o the_o bp._n of_o r._n his_o law_n which_o he_o call_v divinas_fw-la lâ—ges_fw-la and_o sacros_fw-la canon_n and_o make_v they_o equal_a

his_o law_n as_o be_v good_a man_n ought_v not_o to_o contemn_v or_o despise_v they_o and_o wilful_o to_o break_v theym_a for_o those_o that_o be_v good_a your_o g._n have_v receive_v as_o law_n of_o your_o realm_n until_o such_o time_n as_o other_o shall_v be_v make_v and_o therefore_o as_o law_n of_o your_o realm_n they_o must_v be_v observe_v and_o not_o contemn_v and_o here_o i_o speak_v as_o well_o of_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o church_n as_o of_o the_o foresay_a law_n that_o they_o ought_v neither_o to_o be_v reject_v or_o despise_v nor_o yet_o to_o be_v observe_v with_o this_o

say_v it_o be_v too_o much_o injury_n to_o christ_n to_o impute_v the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n to_o any_o law_n or_o ceremony_n of_o man_n make_v nor_o the_o law_n and_o ceremony_n of_o the_o church_n at_o their_o first_o make_v be_v ordain_v for_o that_o intent_n but_o as_o the_o common_a law_n of_o your_o g_n realm_n be_v not_o make_v to_o remit_v sin_n nor_o no_o man_n do_v observe_v theym_n for_o that_o intent_n but_o for_o a_o common_a commodity_n and_o for_o a_o good_a order_n and_o quietness_n to_o be_v observe_v among_o your_o subject_n evyn_v so_o be_v the_o law_n and_o ceremony_n first_o institute_v in_o the_o church_n for_o a_o good_a order_n and_o for_o remembrance_n of_o many_o good_a thing_n but_o not_o for_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o though_o it_o be_v good_a to_o observe_v theym_a well_o for_o that_o intent_n they_o be_v first_o orden_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o good_a but_o a_o contumely_n unto_o christ_n to_o observe_v theym_a with_o this_o opinion_n that_o they_o remit_v
sin_n or_o that_o the_o veray_fw-fr bare_a observation_n of_o theym_n in_o itself_o be_v a_o holiness_n before_o god_n although_o they_o be_v remembrance_n of_o many_o holy_a thing_n or_o a_o

i_o do_v conclude_v for_o a_o general_a rule_n that_o the_o people_n ought_v to_o observe_v theym_a as_o they_o do_v the_o law_n of_o your_o g_n realm_n and_o with_o no_o more_o opinion_n of_o
