that_o it_o be_v not_o manifest_v nor_o certain_a what_o the_o say_a primacy_n be_v nor_o what_o force_n or_o authority_n the_o same_o have_v the_o three_o that_o the_o oath_n of_o this_o primacy_n can_v neither_o be_v exact_v by_o the_o king_n nor_o may_v the_o subject_n take_v the_o same_o 2._o heerehence_a three_o other_o question_n which_o may_v be_v make_v concern_v the_o subject_n will_v easy_o be_v solue_v there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o subject_n in_o england_n the_o first_o as_o some_o call_v they_o be_v henrician_n who_o both_o acknowledge_v &_o swear_v unto_o this_o kingly_a

catholic_n which_o neither_o acknowledge_v it_o nor_o will_v swear_v it_o 3._o the_o first_o question_n than_o be_v what_o may_v be_v say_v of_o these_o henrician_n which_o both_o acknowledge_v and_o swear_v to_o the_o king_n supremacy_n i_o answer_v that_o they_o do_v unwise_o and_o inconsiderate_o the_o reason_n is●_n because_o it_o be_v folly_n and_o rashness_n as_o before_o i_o have_v say_v to_o swear_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v doubtful_a and_o uncertain_a but_o the_o primacy_n of_o the_o king_n be_v a_o thing_n altogether_o doubtful_a and_o uncertain_a among_o the_o henrician_n as_o be_v

question_n be_v what_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o puritan_n or_o pure_a caluinist_n who_o do_v not_o indeed_o acknowledge_v the_o king_n primacy_n &_o yet_o if_o they_o be_v command_v do_v swear_v thereto_o i_o answer_v that_o they_o be_v perjure_a person_n and_o politician_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o believe_v one_o thing_n and_o swear_v another_o they_o believe_v with_o calnin_n that_o neither_o king_n nor_o secular_a prince_n have_v any_o primacy_n in_o spiritual_a and_o ecclesiastical_a matter_n but_o only_o in_o temporal_a yet_o nevertheless_o they_o swear_v allegiance_n unto_o the_o king_n together_o with_o the_o foresaid_a henrician_n as_o to_o the_o primate_n and_o supreme_a head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o this_o they_o do_v to_o make_v a_o external_a and_o political_a peace_n which_o be_v more_o esteem_v by_o they_o than_o their_o faith_n and_o religion_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v call_v politic_n then_o christian_n of_o who_o

then_o in_o that_o sort_n of_o people_n 5._o the_o three_o question_n be_v what_o may_v be_v say_v of_o catholic_n who_o neither_o acknowledge_v the_o king_n primacy_n nor_o swear_v thereto_o i_o
