As appeareth Epist 105. where he saith Reges cum scribunt etsi dominatum habent ut quicquid placet Legis vigorem habeat ea tamen moderatione utuntur cum scribunt ut aliquid praecipientes non se solos videri velint fecisse sed cum aliorum consilio They do temper their Soveraign Jurisdiction with such moderation that it may appear they prescribe and command not without counsell and advice of others Touching the greatnesse of the Kings of this Island and precedence before any other Kings these are two main reasons First that the King of this Land Lucius was the first Christian King of the world as also Constantine the first Emperour publickly planting Christianity Secondly for that of all Kings Christian the King of Britain is the most and indeed onely absolute Monarch he being no way subordinate to any Potentate Spirituall or Temporall in causes either Ecclesiasticall or Civill as other Kings are through their own default Moreover the King of England is both Anointed as no other King is but onely the French of Sicilie and of Jerusalem and he is also crowned which honour the Kings of Spain Portugall Arragon Navarre and many other Princes have not God grant that as our Country hath been blessed with prerogatives above all other Kingdoms and with the blessing both of all earthly felicities and Heavenly graces beyond any other and with more puissant victorious learned religious Kings than all the people whatsoever as the world seeth at this day so we may go beyond all Nations in thankfulnesse to so
