give_v why_o antiochus_n usurpation_n 76._o over_o the_o jew_n be_v not_o settle_v viz._n it_o be_v not_o be_v either_o general_o receive_v by_o submission_n or_o settle_v by_o continuance_n for_o

the_o jew_n they_o declare_v be_v their_o lawful_a magistrate_n and_o lawful_a authority_n and_o if_o they_o judge_v antiochus_n usurpation_n not_o settle_v till_o it_o come_v to_o stand_v on_o these_o way_n of_o right_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o make_v right_o necessary_a to_o their_o thorough_a settlement_n and_o suitable_a to_o their_o decision_n in_o these_o case_n be_v the_o determination_n of_o the_o same_o convocation_n not_o only_o in_o what_o they_o say_v thereto_o in_o this_o book_n of_o bishop_n overal_n but_o also_o in_o the_o book_n of_o canon_n make_v before_o

as_o i_o shall_v present_o observe_v and_o from_o these_o instance_n he_o may_v see_v how_o the_o convocation_n as_o i_o see_v a_o book_n learned_a pen_n have_v late_o take_v pain_n to_o prove_v more_o at_o large_a when_o in_o case_n of_o usurpation_n or_o government_n of_o a_o ill_a beginning_n they_o declare_v obedience_n due_a to_o they_o if_o once_o they_o be_v thorough_o settle_v take_v

that_o have_v the_o legal_a right_n and_o make_v claim_v of_o it_o the_o extinction_n of_o his_o right_n by_o death_n or_o translation_n of_o it_o by_o his_o own_o consent_n be_v necessary_a in_o their_o account_n before_o the_o other_o can_v be_v settle_v and_o good_a reason_n they_o have_v to_o take_v right_o thereinto_o because_o it_o be_v a_o settlement_n of_o authority_n which_o as_o i_o former_o 3._o show_v at_o large_a be_v to_o go_v by_o right_n and_o if_o the_o consideration_n of_o right_n which_o may_v be_v acquire_v by_o the_o submission_n of_o people_n themselves_o when_o
