catholic_a church_n have_v hold_v &_o which_o be_v not_o institute_v by_o counsel_n but_o ever_o keep_v in_o the_o church_n that_o be_v most_o right_o believe_v to_o be_v a_o apostolical_a tradition_n and_o he_o bring_v for_o instance_n those_o holy_a day_n which_o your_o covenant_n abjure_v which_o have_v ever_o be_v retain_v in_o the_o church_n from_o the_o apostle_n day_n and_o albeit_o we_o can_v not_o prove_v episcopacy_n from_o scripture_n as_o we_o may_v very_o well_o prove_v it_o and_o be_v prove_v by_o those_o who_o defend_v the_o same_o yet_o this_o unquestionable_a rule_n of_o augustine_n will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v of_o apostolical_a institution_n for_o you_o say_v it_o be_v not_o of_o divine_a institution_n and_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o institute_v by_o counsel_n and_o yet_o all_o that_o be_v but_o little_o exercise_v in_o antiquity_n shall_v find_v that_o episcopacy_n be_v ever_o in_o the_o church_n from_o the_o apostle_n day_n till_o this_o present_a time_n that_o it_o be_v call_v in_o question_n and_o beside_o that_o rule_n of_o augustine_n consider_v that_o it_o be_v the_o general_a tradition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n that_o episcopacy_n have_v ever_o be_v in_o it_o as_o a_o apostolical_a institution_n and_o by_o this_o general_a tradition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n we_o be_v as_o certain_a that_o it_o be_v of_o apostolical_a institution_n as_o we_o be_v certain_a of_o the_o receive_a number_n of_o the_o canonical_a book_n of_o scripture_n for_o we_o receive_v and_o take_v that_o number_n upon_o the_o continue_a general_a tradition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n of_o christ_n from_o age_n to_o age_n we_o reject_v and_o detest_v particular_a tradition_n of_o any_o present_a particular_a church_n such_o as_o be_v those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o they_o can_v show_v those_o tradition_n to_o have_v be_v general_o receive_v at_o all_o time_n in_o the_o catholic_a church_n but_o there_o be_v no_o protestant_n that_o do_v not_o receive_v general_a tradition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n such_o as_o be_v this_o concern_v the_o definite_a number_n of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n and_o if_o i_o will_v assume_v a_o schismatical_a humour_n i_o may_v with_o as_o good_a warrant_n deny_v that_o there_o be_v so_o many_o book_n in_o the_o canon_n as_o the_o catholic_a church_n say_v there_o be_v as_o you_o deny_v episcopacy_n to_o be_v of_o apostolical_a institution_n thus_o have_v i_o brief_o show_v you_o the_o passage_n between_o the_o anticovenanter_n and_o covenanter_n which_o i_o leave_v to_o your_o consideration_n and_o return_v to_o my_o purpose_n from_o this_o sweet_a harmony_n in_o the_o precede_a point_n especial_o of_o your_o independent_a power_n in_o church_n matter_n there_o follow_v another_o parallel_n by_o way_n of_o consequence_n viz._n that_o you_o may_v excommunicate_v your_o king_n if_o he_o do_v not_o obey_v the_o act_n and_o constitution_n of_o your_o assembly_n thus_o you_o threaten_v king_n james_n and_o his_o council_n both_o with_o excommunication_n if_o he_o will_v not_o execute_v your_o act_n of_o your_o assembly_n and_o good_a reason_n see_v it_o be_v the_o supreme_a judicatory_a and_o the_o king_n be_v a_o son_n of_o your_o church_n from_o who_o he_o ought_v to_o take_v the_o meaning_n and_o if_o he_o be_v refractory_a why_o may_v not_o the_o assembly_n excommunicate_v he_o as_o ambrose_n do_v th●●dosius_n and_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o from_o your_o travers_n
