III. That Ecclesiasticall persons were subiect to Princes before the comming of our Lord IESVS CHRIST THAT is not new which is frō the beginning of the world 1. Ioh. 2.7 2. Ioh. 5. saith Saint Iohn Teneaut Sa. Iesuite in his Aphorismes Printed at Antwerp v. Princeps v. Clericis Wherefore we cannot sufficiently detest the new opinion of the Iesuits who teach that Ecclesiastical persons cānot be condemned for high Treason because they are not the Kings subiects To conuince which heresie to hinder that none following this doctrine doe any more attēpt against our Kings let vs lead these Pharisies to that which was at the beginning We haue no Hystorian more antient then Moses who from the creation of the world vntill his death in the yeare of the world 1493. telleth vs of no other superiour power but of the Prince ouer all the inhabitants of his Territory And accordingly hereunto Exod. 20. to the 25.

Yee should haue eaten it in the holy place as I had commanded In the same manner also as touching the iurisdiction for it was wholly in the hands of Moses Exod. 18.13 c. as being the Prince of the people iudging in person as in times past the Kings of France haue done or ordeining Iudges to take knowledge of causes which respect either the Church or processe betweene man and man Afterwards also there was references appeales in cases of difficulty which returned to Ierusalem 2. Chron. 19.8 Deut. 17.8 And to himselfe was giuen of God the direction of the seruice and order Ecclesiasticall and not to the Priests Against which truth it will not serue the turne to say that Moses was of the family of Leui for seeing hee reproued the chiefe Priests themselues it was not in quality of a Leuite who had bene inferiour to the least of the Priests if hee had not further had the quality of Duke So Dauid a man after Gods owne heart who tooke not vpon him aboue his charge hauing named Salomon his son for successor gathered a Councell 1. Chro. 23 numbred and distributed to the Priests their charges and offices described in that place which consisted not in commanding but in their administring before the Lord For to purifie all holy things for the shew-bread and for the fine flower for the meate offering and for the vnleueaned cakes and to offer burnt-offerings 2.

And the King stood by the pillar and made a couenant before the Lord c. and it is added then the King commanded Helkijah the high Priest c.

Chro. 29 Hee opened the dores of the house of the Lord in the first yeare and in the first moneth of his raigne and repaired them c. called for the Priests and Leuites and said vnto them Heere me yee Leuites sanctifie now your selues and sanctifie the house of the Lord. Againe Now I purpose to make a couenant with the Lord God of Israel c. Then he said to the Priests the sonnes of Aaron that they should offer vpon the Altar he appointed the Leuites in the house of the Lord c. Then Hezekiah commanded to offer the burnt offering vpon the Altar Also he saith Now yee haue consecrate your selues to the Lord come neere and offer the sacrifices and praises c. Againe 2. King 18.4 Hee tooke away the high places brake the images cut downe the groues and brake in peeces the brasen serpent that Moses had made And he gathered together the whole Church and wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasses 2.

King 2.27 Nehe. 8.8.13 the Postes therefore went note it by commission from the King Also hee prouided for the sacrifices as did Iosias
