it_o be_v certain_o now_o the_o right_n of_o the_o crown_n as_o much_o as_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o judge_n can_v make_v it_o so_o and_o i_o never_o dispute_v against_o such_o a_o authority_n and_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o disparagement_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o reverend_a judge_n to_o call_v in_o clergyman_n to_o help_v they_o out_o when_o he_o himself_o tell_v we_o p._n 34._o unto_o the_o judge_n the_o people_n be_v bind_v last_o and_o final_o to_o submit_v themselves_o for_o matter_n of_o law_n why_o then_o do_v he_o make_v any_o further_a dispute_n about_o the_o matter_n as_o if_o he_o disinherit_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o judge_n or_o think_v that_o people_n will_v rather_o believe_v divine_n than_o judge_n in_o matter_n of_o law_n which_o will_v be_v a_o great_a scandal_n to_o that_o reverend_n and_o learned_a bench._n and_o therefore_o i_o confess_v i_o be_o very_o much_o offend_v with_o that_o priority_n he_o give_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o churchman_n in_o this_o point_n before_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o judge_n he_o say_v we_o can_v not_o resolve_v ourselves_o in_o this_o great_a point_n of_o the_o supreme_a power_n inherent_a in_o and_o inseparable_o annex_v to_o the_o crown_n to_o dispense_v with_o penal_a law_n but_o by_o these_o two_o way_n 1._o to_o see_v how_o far_o the_o judgement_n of_o our_o churchman_n appear_v in_o their_o doctrine_n which_o be_v for_o our_o edification_n do_v warrant_v this_o prerogative_n to_o be_v in_o the_o king_n 2._o to_o see_v how_o far_o the_o judge_n resolution_n in_o declare_v their_o sense_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n in_o this_o doubtful_a question_n do_v agree_v in_o such_o their_o judgement_n and_o doctrine_n fie_o for_o shame_n first_o make_v the_o clergy_n judge_n of_o law_n and_o preach_v edify_o about_o the_o prerogative_n and_o then_o set_v they_o before_o the_o judge_n themselves_o as_o a_o rule_n and_o pattern_n for_o they_o to_o follow_v and_o then_o as_o it_o natural_o follow_v judge_v over_o the_o judge_n judgement_n by_o its_o agreement_n with_o the_o judgement_n of_o divine_n about_o law_n and_o prerogative_n if_o the_o writer_n of_o this_o letter_n be_v a_o divine_a it_o argue_v a_o good_a opinion_n of_o his_o own_o profession_n but_o if_o he_o be_v a_o lawyer_n or_o but_o a_o justice_n of_o peace_n i_o know_v what_o he_o deserve_v second_o this_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o positive_a reason_n of_o my_o dislike_n of_o this_o way_n and_o they_o be_v comprehend_v in_o two_o 1._o that_o i_o do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o lay_v such_o stress_n upon_o the_o judgement_n of_o churchman_n in_o matter_n of_o law_n and_o such_o sure_o this_o unlimited_a dispense_n power_n be_v a_o mere_a point_n of_o law_n and_o that_o such_o a_o abstruse_a point_n too_o as_o not_o all_o lawyer_n nay_o not_o all_o judge_n have_v former_o be_v agree_v about_o now_o what_o do_v a_o churchman_n judgement_n signify_v in_o matter_n of_o law_n no_o man_n opinion_n be_v of_o any_o value_n but_o in_o such_o thing_n wherein_o he_o be_v skill_v now_o a_o churchman_n do_v not_o signify_v one_o who_o be_v skill_v in_o law_n but_o in_o divinity_n and_o though_o a_o churchman_n shall_v be_v a_o good_a lawyer_n if_o he_o give_v his_o opinion_n in_o any_o point_n of_o law_n his_o opinion_n be_v not_o valuable_a as_o the_o opinion_n of_o a_o churchman_n but_o of_o a_o lawyer_n for_o suppose_v a_o churchman_n be_v skill_v in_o physic_n too_o will_v you_o value_v his_o judgement_n in_o physic_n ever_o the_o more_o because_o he_o be_v a_o churchman_n or_o think_v yourself_o more_o safe_a in_o his_o hand_n than_o in_o a_o profess_a physician_n there_o be_v interloper_n indeed_o in_o all_o profession_n but_o that_o any_o man_n judgement_n shall_v be_v value_v because_o be_v of_o one_o profession_n himself_o he_o give_v judgement_n in_o another_o be_v a_o mystery_n to_o i_o and_o therefore_o this_o writer_n shall_v first_o have_v prove_v all_o those_o great_a divine_n archbishop_n bishop_n dean_n doctor_n with_o who_o name_n he_o have_v so_o pompous_o fill_v his_o title_n page_n and_o to_o who_o judgement_n he_o appeal_v about_o the_o king_n prerogative_n to_o haxe_v be_v great_a lawyer_n as_o well_o as_o great_a divine_n or_o else_o the_o cause_n be_v coram_fw-la non_fw-la judice_fw-la and_o yet_o he_o make_v no_o offer_n at_o this_o unless_o by_o the_o title_n he_o give_v dr._n sherlock_n of_o master_n of_o the_o temple_n he_o will_v intimate_v his_o great_a skill_n in_o law_n too_o but_o this_o will_v not_o do_v for_o his_o book_n of_o nonresistance_n be_v write_v before_o he_o live_v within_o the_o infection_n of_o the_o law-air_n so_o that_o it_o seem_v a_o very_a great_a injury_n to_o the_o cause_n to_o appeal_v to_o such_o judge_n as_o have_v no_o skill_n in_o the_o matter_n for_o what_o credit_n can_v the_o opinion_n of_o divine_n do_v it_o when_o it_o be_v not_o a_o point_n of_o divinity_n but_o of_o law_n that_o be_v in_o question_n for_o it_o be_v general_o see_v that_o those_o be_v very_o apt_a to_o mistake_v who_o guess_v at_o thing_n out_o of_o their_o ken_n and_o people_n be_v apt_a to_o suspect_v that_o such_o contemplative_a man_n who_o keep_v their_o study_n and_o seldom_o look_v abroad_o into_o the_o world_n may_v form_v fine_a romantic_a idea_n of_o government_n which_o will_v not_o suit_v the_o public_a constitution_n of_o kingdom_n and_o nation_n second_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o very_a dangerous_a thing_n to_o put_v the_o question_n upon_o such_o a_o issue_n as_o this_o the_o design_n of_o it_o i_o suppose_v be_v to_o recommend_v it_o to_o the_o laity_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n by_o such_o venerable_a name_n but_o he_o shall_v have_v consider_v that_o the_o laity_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v not_o so_o priestridden_a as_o they_o be_v at_o rome_n and_o geneva_n they_o have_v not_o a_o implicit_a faith_n in_o their_o spiritual_a guide_n and_o their_o guide_n do_v not_o desire_v they_o shall_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o their_o name_n but_o their_o argument_n must_v prevail_v but_o if_o people_n be_v teach_v to_o rely_v on_o the_o opinion_n of_o their_o minister_n in_o such_o prerogative_n dispute_v the_o popish_a priest_n and_o fanatic_a minister_n be_v great_a politician_n too_o but_o if_o they_o may_v be_v judge_n sovereign_a prince_n will_v get_v nothing_o by_o it_o the_o church_n of_o england_n indeed_o have_v always_o be_v addict_v to_o the_o service_n of_o the_o crown_n but_o there_o be_v other_o maxim_n of_o government_n among_o other_o man_n bellarmin_n and_o suarez_n and_o mr._n baxter_n commonwealth_n and_o the_o dissenter_n say_n not_o to_o take_v notice_n now_o of_o julian_n the_o apostate_n

his_o king_n and_o the_o church_n the_o famous_a archbishop_n laud_n who_o judgement_n will_v weigh_v more_o with_o i_o than_o some_o other_o man_n reason_n he_o quote_v a_o say_n of_o he_o out_o of_o

of_o the_o dispense_v power_n quoad_fw-la hic_fw-la &_o nunc_fw-la i_o doubt_v may_v be_v expound_v as_o a_o limitation_n of_o the_o dispense_v power_n which_o will_v beget_v a_o dispute_n how_o far_o

a_o divine_a and_o therefore_o his_o judgement_n not_o authentic_a in_o such_o matter_n any_o far_a than_o this_o author_n have_v make_v it_o so_o by_o appeal_n to_o it_o especial_o since_o he_o do_v not_o give_v his_o own_o opinion_n in_o the_o case_n but_o refer_v to_o the_o receive_a opinion_n of_o lawyer_n at_o that_o time_n which_o whether_o it_o then_o be_v for_o a_o absolute_a dispense_v power_n must_v be_v first_o know_v before_o we_o can_v know_v what_o the_o archbishop_n opinion_n be_v but_o he_o make_v a_o much_o great_a flourish_n with_o archbishop_n usher_n who_o write_v a_o
