supreme_a head_n of_o the_o church_n which_o title_n be_v take_v from_o the_o pope_n and_o give_v to_o the_o king_n seem_v to_o invest_v that_o whole_a power_n in_o the_o king_n person_n which_o the_o pope_n have_v usurp_v over_o the_o church_n second_o stephen_n gardiner_n bishop_n of_o winchester_n affirm_v at_o ratisbon_n that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o the_o king_n to_o forbid_v eat_v of_o

i_o neither_o know_v nor_o have_v now_o leisure_n to_o seek_v but_o if_o they_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n whereby_o it_o may_v just_o be_v suspect_v that_o they_o think_v the_o king_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o the_o kirk_n they_o have_v go_v beyond_o their_o bound_n and_o shall_v never_o have_v either_o approbation_n or_o excuse_v by_o my_o defence_n as_o for_o the_o minister_n and_o people_n which_o do_v not_o yield_v to_o subscription_n and_o conformity_n i_o must_v needs_o labour_v to_o clear_v they_o of_o this_o imputation_n to_o which_o purpose_n i_o desire_v it_o may_v first_o be_v observe_v that_o they_o acknowledge_v both_o by_o word_n and_o writing_n and_o that_o ex_fw-la animo_fw-la not_o like_o you_o papist_n with_o i_o know_v not_o what_o equivocation_n that_o the_o king_n majesty_n under_o god_n be_v the_o only_a supreme_a governor_n of_o this_o realm_n and_o of_o all_o other_o his_o highness_n dominion_n and_o country_n as_o well_o in_o all_o spiritual_a

the_o law_n of_o god_n require_v second_o they_o profess_v with_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o father_n and_o brethren_n protestant_n that_o his_o majesty_n have_v authority_n to_o command_v or_o forbid_v in_o all_o matter_n whatsoever_o necessary_a or_o indifferent_a and_o that_o in_o both_o these_o he_o be_v to_o be_v obey_v upon_o conscience_n of_o his_o authority_n in_o matter_n command_v by_o god_n we_o be_v whole_o of_o one_o mind_n about_o the_o matter_n in_o question_n there_o be_v these_o two_o difference_n whether_o they_o be_v indifferent_a or_o no_o whether_o suppose_v they_o to_o be_v indifferent_a they_o may_v be_v command_v and_o do_v in_o case_n they_o be_v think_v to_o nourish_v superstition_n in_o many_o and_o to_o be_v a_o occasion_n of_o stumble_v and_o destruction_n to_o many_o a_o one_o for_o who_o christ_n have_v dye_v and_o these_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o dare_v not_o as_o they_o say_v approve_v some_o thing_n in_o our_o church_n by_o subscription_n and_o practice_v otherwise_o profess_v not_o only_o a_o willingness_n but_o a_o desire_n to_o yield_v if_o they_o may_v satisfy_v their_o own_o conscience_n in_o these_o doubt_n so_o that_o indeed_o they_o no_o way_n deny_v the_o king_n supremacy_n either_o by_o attribute_v that_o to_o any_o foreign_a potentate_n or_o prelate_n or_o any_o presbytery_n at_o home_n which_o lawful_o belong_v unto_o he_o or_o by_o deny_v his_o authority_n in_o thing_n indifferent_a concern_v the_o authority_n of_o bishop_n it_o be_v not_o a_o essential_a point_n of_o faith_n and_o beside_o the_o best_a protestant_n divine_v hold_v that_o the_o form_n of_o government_n be_v leave_v to_o the_o discretion_n of_o every_o church_n to_o be_v frame_v as_o the_o civil_a estate_n may_v bear_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o deny_v i_o think_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o presbytery_n but_o that_o a_o presbytery_n be_v fit_a for_o a_o monarchy_n so_o that_o the_o abolish_n of_o bishop_n in_o some_o church_n be_v not_o a_o confound_a of_o christ_n church_n but_o a_o dissolve_v of_o one_o outward_a form_n of_o government_n essential_a point_n of_o faith_n be_v matter_n of_o doctrine_n wherein_o a_o man_n may_v be_v sound_a and_o yet_o fail_v in_o some_o part_n of_o obedience_n if_o therefore_o by_o not_o observe_v you_o mean_v not_o think_v it_o lawful_a to_o observe_v or_o appoint_v holy_a day_n i_o say_v it_o be_v no_o essential_a point_n of_o faith_n to_o doubt_v of_o or_o deny_v this_o authority_n though_o the_o puritan_n general_o hold_v such_o denial_n to_o be_v a_o error_n if_o it_o be_v your_o meaning_n to_o charge_v the_o puritan_n with_o neglect_v the_o observation_n of_o such_o day_n i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v that_o all_o puritan_n do_v more_o religious_o observe_v they_o than_o any_o papist_n do_v the_o lord_n day_n or_o sunday_n which_o i_o avow_v both_o of_o minister_n and_o people_n that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a for_o the_o church_n or_o magistrate_n to_o appoint_v fast_n for_o the_o religious_a humble_v of_o man_n upon_o just_a occasion_n it_o be_v a_o foul_a error_n for_o any_o man_n to_o hold_v but_o not_o against_o any_o essential_a point_n of_o faith_n require_v to_o the_o be_v of_o a_o christian_n either_o in_o truth_n or_o profession_n both_o protestant_n &_o puritan_n agree_v general_o about_o this_o point_n as_o for_o the_o weekly_a fish_n day_n lent_n &_o the_o 4._o ember_n week_n our_o church_n and_o state_n disclaim_v the_o appoint_v of_o they_o for_o any_o use_n of_o religion_n and_o keep_v they_o only_o

matter_n alsoe_o there_o be_v diversity_n of_o opinion_n betwixt_o protestant_n and_o protestant_n puritan_n and_o puritan_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v fond_o and_o false_o set_v down_o as_o a_o
