if necessitie require by recalling the faculties And afterward If any shewe himselfe disobedient vnquiet or contumacious h● may after due admonitions and reprehensions made with brotherly charitie punish him with Ecclesiasticall penalties that is to say by taking away his faculties or by suspension vntill he amend How is this order kept in the Archpriests proceedings when without any reprehension or brotherly admonition after a fault he will scant hold his hand vntill the fault be committed but ipso facto the offendour is punished and how by any degrees for example by hauing his faculties abridged and after if necessitie require it by leesing them or after this by being suspended no such matter But all at once ipso facto yea and more then this hee is interdicted for which there is no warrant in all the Commission wherefore and also for that the Archpriest did not obserue the order prescribed him being but a Subdelegat vnder the Card. Caietane as appeareth in his Letters all which hee hath done in this kinde is of it selfe voyd Cap. cum dilecta de rescriptis glossa ibidem Cap. venerabili de officio pot iud del Hostiensis de offic Iudicis deleg num 7. 10.

Delegatus as it is manifest by the rules of holie Church and those who comment thereon and therfore no good euent if there had bene any could proue the lawfulnes of his decrees But he could not wel haue the vse of forum contentiosum nor cyte or produce witnesses nor conueniently méete with euery one post factum Were they who put him in authoritie ignorant that heere could not be any formall Court kept or can M. Blackwell say that he cannot meet with anie one post factum either himselfe or by his Assistants who in his Letters to his Assistants giueth directions to examine such as whose names are to the appeale vpon such and such points If he wil denie that himselfe hath written to particular Gentlemen to giue entertainment to such a man in particular to examine the Priest there resident concerning his subscribing to the appeale and concerning his punishment therfore his owne Letters shall be brought out against him so that if it please him it is euident inough that he can proceed post factum and therefore this is but a poore shift for the making of his decrees in such sort as they are with penalties ipso facto to be incurred As for the good which he hath done by these his censures it hath bene no other thē to make some dissemble for a while because they would not be said to be suspended or to haue lost their faculties And perplexe men whether they may in this time of persecution goe for the Sacraments And for the execution of his decrees he may say that he proceedeth vpon other cause then vpon the appeale but then he must promise comfort to such as heere hee taketh notice haue need thereof vpon some other cause then the subscribing or hauing their names put to the appeale for this is an euident argument whatsoeuer is pretended that some haue had need of comfort for that act doing but the words of his Letter dated 16. Aprill 1601. to a Laie Gentleman leaue no place for any doubt in this cause This I write saith he to make you priuie of the great spirituall daunger wherein you and all that receiue any Sacraments of M. Os N. may be if it be so that he hath subscribed vnto a seditious Pamphlet coloured with the name of an Appeale The oath of obedience exacted by the Archpriest is beyond his Commission And the lesse to be listned vnto for that it is exacted as a satisfaction due to him by such as haue appealed to Rome vpon no other causes then were prooued out of his owne Letters and others of his Councell and are of that qualitie that neither he nor all his complices in those actions will euer be able to make condigne satisfaction to the Priests And here I could wish that mē were not so caried away with the sound of authoritie hauing had sufficient knowledge of the Priests their carriage toward all lawfull authoritie by their behauiour at the comming of the Breue and let not the name of a seditious booke the least point therein contained not being to be controld but by secret whisperings where it shall not come to the examination put men from seeing how they are deluded by such as meane them no good but labour now to lull them a sleep till they haue gotten what they would to this end bebarre them of all such helpes as whereby they might be enformed of the truth The points neither confute themselues nor will be confuted by any Neither are the bookes written in passion but to moue all sincere Catholikes to haue compassion both of themselues and of vs when they shall see by these discourses vnder whose hands their soules are and how slight reckoning is made of the infamie of so many Priests for a matter not worthie to make a matter of cōtention which part soeuer is true Concerning the names to the appeale Howsoeuer some doo comfort themselues they will hardly finde any whose name was there without his cōsent for although perchance there were some causes particular to some which were not knowne to the rest yet in the chief they all found thēselues agreeued and desired remedie by way of appeale to which they set to their hands or sent their consent by others to haue their names set too for which the Authours will be brought foorth if need require to iustifie their consents whose names they caused to be subscribed and since this matter came in question we haue to shewe the consents of some vnder their owne handes of whom the doubt was made But to grow to amend all are to vnderstand that our desire is to haue peace and for peace sake haue we published these bookes knowing that there is no way so meet to worke an vnfained peace as to haue the truth knowne of these proceedings that thereby the soare may be searched to the quick not healed as it was before and brake out againe presently after by the indiscretion of F.

Garnet therein it might haue taken some effect because these controuersies were as well with the
