king_n subject_n when_o they_o be_v hardly_o deal_v withal_o by_o the_o prelate_n may_v appeal_v to_o the_o supreme_a council_n of_o spain_n which_o assertion_n be_v certain_o both_o a_o unworthy_a and_o a_o heretical_a one_o and_o be_v of_o dangerous_a consequence_n also_o to_o the_o king_n for_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o render_v he_o odious_a to_o his_o people_n and_o diminish_v rather_o then_o increase_v his_o authority_n as_o we_o find_v it_o testify_v by_o daily_a experience_n or_o else_o it_o may_v indeed_o be_v desire_v at_o the_o pope_n hand_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o and_o it_o may_v also_o be_v declare_v that_o the_o king_n be_v willing_a to_o yield_v that_o in_o all_o cause_n whatsoever_o there_o shall_v be_v appeal_v to_o the_o pope_n if_o so_o be_v that_o it_o may_v be_v but_o every_o where_o allow_v to_o appeal_v first_o to_o a_o council_n of_o three_o bishop_n or_o else_o that_o appeal_v in_o all_o cause_n of_o the_o laity_n shall_v come_v at_o length_n to_o the_o

all_o to_o come_v to_o the_o pope_n for_o appeal_v from_o general_a counsel_n be_v very_o seldom_o hear_v of_o and_o beside_o the_o very_a name_n of_o a_o council_n be_v hateful_a to_o the_o pope_n so_o that_o in_o conclusion_n the_o determination_n of_o all_o cause_n will_v always_o rest_v with_o the_o king_n who_o by_o this_o mean_n shall_v be_v a_o gainer_n where_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o

upon_o what_o interest_n and_o under_o what_o confederacy_n with_o the_o pope_n the_o monarchy_n of_o spain_n ought_v to_o proceed_v at_o least_o as_o far_o as_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v commit_v to_o

king_n of_o spain_n have_v consist_v chief_o in_o this_o that_o his_o neighbour_a enemy_n be_v weak_a and_o at_o discord_n among_o themselves_o touch_v both_o point_n of_o religion_n and_o matter_n of_o state_n but_o his_o remote_a enemy_n be_v more_o powerful_a so_o that_o these_o if_o his_o weak_a neighbour_n be_v once_o overcome_v seem_v the_o more_o easy_o conquerable_a the_o spaniard_n

to_o particular_a action_n examine_v according_a to_o near_a and_o remote_a relation_n but_o first_o of_o all_o the_o politic_a relation_n of_o spain_n at_o home_n be_v to_o be_v strengthen_v and_o

be_v that_o the_o conspiracy_n of_o absalon_n against_o his_o father_n david_n and_o of_o catiline_n against_o his_o country_n be_v detect_v because_o that_o those_o that_o be_v the_o conspirator_n

no_o great_a danger_n of_o its_o be_v discover_v and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o conspiracy_n of_o john_n de_fw-fr precitha_n and_o the_o baron_n of_o sicily_n against_o the_o french_a and_z
