A16170	A courteous conference with the English Catholikes Romane about the six articles ministred vnto the seminarie priestes, wherein it is apparantly proued by their owne diuinitie, and the principles of their owne religion, that the Pope cannot depose her Maiestie, or release her subiectes of their alleageance vnto her. And finally, that the bull of Pius Quiutus [sic] pronounced against her Maiestie is of no force eyther in lawe or conscience, all Catholicke scruples to the contrarie beeing throughly and perfectly cleared and resolued, and many memoriall matters exactly discussed, which haue not beene handled by man heeretofore. Written by Iohn Bishop a recusant papist.	Bishop, John, d. 1613.; Frewen, John, 1558-1628.	1598 (1598)	STC 3092; ESTC S102284	61,282	90

call_v the_o doctor_n and_o student_n who_o as_o he_o be_v a_o great_a lawyer_n so_o be_v he_o also_o a_o good_a divine_a and_o devout_a catholic_a that_o it_o wear_v tedious_a to_o rehearse_v they_o

by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o spiritual_a law_n how_o then_o can_v they_o bind_v the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o crown_n and_o again_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v

country_n where_o the_o pope_n have_v power_n to_o determine_v the_o right_n of_o temporal_a thing_n i_o think_v it_o be_v as_o thou_o say_v but_o in_o this_o realm_n it_o be_v not_o so_o and_o the_o right_n of_o presentment_n be_v a_o temporal_a thing_n and_o a_o temporal_a inheritance_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v think_v it_o belong_v to_o the_o king_n law_n to_o determine_v and_o also_o to_o make_v law_n who_o shall_v present_v after_o the_o six_o month_n aswell_o as_o before_o so_o that_o the_o title_n of_o ability_n or_o none_o ability_n be_v not_o therefore_o take_v from_o the_o

so_o they_o shall_v be_v though_o the_o church_n have_v make_v a_o law_n to_o the_o contrary_n and_o so_o if_o the_o pope_n shall_v have_v any_o title_n in_o this_o case_n to_o present_v it_o shall_v
