of_o discipline_n &_o the_o treatise_n of_o ecclesiastical_a government_n and_o in_o the_o most_o of_o the_o sound_a writer_n of_o our_o time_n the_o second_o be_v 2_o answer_v partly_o by_o the_o

learned_a writing_n to_o the_o three_o 3_o we_o answer_v it_o be_v no_o sound_n divinity_n to_o exclude_v christian_a prince_n from_o their_o government_n in_o church-matter_n concern_v excommunication_n he_o have_v his_o answer_n before_o to_o the_o two_o other_o clause_n let_v the_o papist_n answer_n for_o they_o be_v malicious_o impute_v unto_o us._n and_o we_o demand_v of_o he_o whether_o it_o be_v sound_a divinity_n that_o when_o the_o prince_n will_v eat_v flesh_n in_o lent_n or_o do_v such_o like_a she_o must_v have_v a_o dispensation_n from_o a_o archbishop_n and_o that_o the_o write_v of_o his_o court_n even_o in_o cause_n civil_a and_o matter_n of_o instance_n shall_v be_v in_o his_o own_o name_n and_o not_o in_o the_o name_n of_o her_o most_o excellent_a majesty_n the_o four_o be_v answer_v in_o the_o treatise_n of_o the_o eldership_n and_o we_o ask_v 4_o of_o he_o what_o pregnant_a proof_n he_o have_v either_o from_o scripture_n or_o father_n that_o ecclesiastical_a government_n shall_v be_v exercise_v in_o a_o whole_a diocese_n by_o a_o chancellor_n or_o commissarye_a be_v a_o mere_a layman_n to_o the_o 5._o and_o 6._o both_o we_o 6._o answer_v that_o rebaptisation_n be_v condemn_v by_o the_o worde_n of_o god_n and_o that_o those_o he_o speak_v of_o be_v marry_v folk_n and_o we_o require_v he_o to_o prove_v by_o the_o worde_n of_o god_n that_o in_o case_n of_o the_o necessity_n which_o they_o pretend_v a_o woman_n may_v baptize_v and_o to_o prove_v by_o the_o same_o that_o man_n may_v be_v forbid_v to_o marry_v in_o lent_n or_o such_o like_a time_n the_o seven_o 7_o be_v answer_v in_o that_o to_o the_o 5._o and_o 6._o and_o we_o demand_v of_o he_o how_o they_o can_v prove_v it_o lawful_a to_o admit_v a_o popish_a priest_n fall_v from_o the_o gospel_n and_o still_o unapt_a to_o teach_v to_o the_o eight_o we_o answer_v 8_o there_o be_v the_o like_a reason_n of_o the_o supper_n and_o of_o baptism_n and_o we_o require_v he_o to_o prove_v by_o the_o worde_n of_o god_n that_o a_o deacon_n may_v baptize_v and_o when_o he_o have_v prove_v that_o let_v he_o prove_v why_o he_o may_v not_o minister_v the_o supper_n also_o to_o the_o nine_o we_o answer_v that_o to_o 9_o the_o minister_n there_o may_v be_v diversity_n of_o reward_n give_v so_o long_o as_o none_o have_v to_o little_a nor_o any_o too_o much_o and_o we_o require_v he_o to_o prove_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n may_v carry_v the_o pomp_n of_o man_n of_o estate_n to_o the_o 10_o ten_o we_o answer_v as_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o treatise_n that_o a_o minister_n shall_v be_v apt_a to_o teach_v we_o will_v have_v he_o prove_v that_o any_o other_o may_v preach_v who_o be_v not_o apt_a to_o teach_v to_o the_o eleven_o we_o answer_v 11_o affirmative_o and_o require_v he_o to_o prove_v by_o the_o scripture_n that_o a_o archbishop_n may_v put_v preacher_n to_o silence_n for_o not_o subscribe_v to_o that_o which_o be_v not_o require_v by_o the_o law_n to_o the_o twelve_o 12_o we_o answer_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o one_o to_o be_v thrust_v out_o of_o his_o ministry_n for_o show_v modest_o in_o his_o sermon_n the_o inconvenience_n of_o unleavened_a bread_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o all_o usury_n as_o we_o speak_v it_o whither_o bite_a or_o nibble_v be_v unlawful_a and_o we_o
