supremacy_n have_v long_o be_v thought_n by_o the_o generality_n of_o catholic_n inconsistent_a with_o faith_n both_o for_o what_o it_o affirm_v of_o the_o king_n and_o deny_v of_o the_o pope_n and_o true_o who_o consider_v only_o the_o word_n as_o they_o lie_v naked_a there_o without_o seek_v to_o inform_v himself_o what_o they_o mean_v of_o any_o thing_n but_o the_o bare_a sound_n have_v reason_n at_o first_o sight_n to_o check_v at_o it_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o every_o body_n do_v not_o look_v far_o at_o least_o i_o myself_o do_v not_o a_o great_a while_n and_o therefore_o think_v of_o it_o as_o other_o do_v 2._o yet_o it_o seem_v strange_a that_o the_o most_o learned_a of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n shall_v free_o take_v it_o without_o scruple_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n irreprehensible_o affirm_v both_o of_o the_o king_n power_n and_o the_o pope_n what_o catholic_n therefore_o refuse_v the_o oath_n because_o they_o think_v it_o deny_v i_o perceive_v they_o must_v of_o necessity_n understand_v it_o otherwise_o than_o we_o do_v for_o to_o suspect_v that_o either_o of_o we_o proceed_v otherwise_o than_o according_a to_o our_o conscience_n they_o in_o take_v and_o we_o in_o refuse_v be_v not_o either_o for_o a_o charitable_a or_o reasonable_a man._n i_o will_v not_o handsome_o unriddle_v when_o a_o mistake_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v on_o one_o side_n how_o the_o mistake_n shall_v lie_v on_o they_o or_o which_o way_n they_o shall_v misunderstand_v a_o oath_n of_o their_o own_o make_n in_o short_a i_o know_v not_o what_o to_o make_v of_o it_o and_o while_o i_o have_v no_o key_n to_o the_o lock_n but_o the_o bare_a word_n can_v not_o easy_o open_v it_o for_o still_o those_o word_n seem_v irreconcilable_a to_o truth_n and_o to_o that_o truth_n which_o they_o profess_v as_o well_o as_o that_o which_o i_o believe_v 3._o upon_o far_a search_n thing_n appear_v something_o otherwise_o i_o find_v that_o what_o those_o learned_a man_n mean_v when_o they_o swear_v and_o which_o they_o think_v the_o word_n of_o the_o oath_n mean_v be_v not_o only_o suitable_a to_o what_o they_o believe_v themselves_o but_o likewise_o to_o what_o we_o believe_v and_o i_o find_v there_o be_v more_o reason_n than_o i_o imagine_v to_o believe_v that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o oath_n do_v indeed_o mean_a as_o they_o judge_v they_o do_v and_o not_o as_o we_o think_v what_o occur_v to_o i_o i_o think_v a_o seasonable_a charity_n to_o communicate_v to_o other_o lest_o by_o seek_v to_o avoid_v one_o error_n we_o fall_v into_o many_o 4._o for_o as_o we_o be_v on_o the_o one_o side_n oblige_v to_o prefer_v a_o good_a conscience_n before_o all_o worldly_a respect_n so_o we_o be_v oblige_v on_o the_o other_o to_o obey_v our_o sovereign_n and_o his_o law_n where_o with_o a_o good_a conscience_n we_o can_v no_o man_n can_v justify_v the_o refusal_n of_o a_o oath_n tender_v by_o lawful_a authority_n without_o a_o sufficient_a reason_n the_o reason_n why_o we_o have_v refuse_v this_o oath_n be_v because_o we_o apprehend_v it_o inconsistent_a with_o faith_n and_o that_o be_v undoubted_o a_o sufficient_a reason_n if_o the_o apprehension_n be_v true_a but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o we_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o lurch_n if_o the_o oath_n as_o some_o think_v do_v not_o renounce_v the_o faith_n of_o all_o catholic_n but_o only_o the_o opinion_n of_o some_o and_o those_o both_o false_a and_o pernicious_a to_o refuse_v it_o be_v not_o to_o preserve_v but_o to_o scandalize_v our_o faith_n with_o the_o imputation_n of_o oblige_v we_o to_o thing_n by_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o nation_n judge_v intolerable_a it_o be_v to_o confirm_v the_o bad_a opinion_n which_o some_o have_v of_o we_o that_o our_o religion_n be_v indeed_o

with_o their_o bargain_n our_o only_a question_n at_o present_a be_v concern_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n spiritual_a when_o apply_v to_o king_n which_o if_o it_o signify_v a_o power_n pure_o

say_v it_o be_v a_o different_a case_n i_o add_v then_o this_o forcible_a reason_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a be_v unanswerable_a if_o the_o word_n in_o spiritual_n or_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n or_o

the_o word_n only_a join_v to_o supreme_a governor_n and_o alice_n to_o thing_n or_o cause_n be_v so_o ample_a and_o extensive_a must_v either_o give_v he_o the_o whole_a latitude_n of_o power_n
