matter_n of_o truth_n i_o draw_v this_o conclusion_n howsoever_o no_o small_a number_n of_o the_o french_a clergy_n may_v perhaps_o bear_v the_o affection_n of_o love_a subject_n to_o their_o king_n and_o may_v not_o suffer_v the_o clericall_a character_n to_o deface_v the_o impression_n of_o natural_a allegiance_n yet_o for_o so_o much_o as_o the_o order_n of_o clerics_n be_v dip_v in_o a_o deep_o die_v and_o bear_v a_o worse_a tincture_n of_o dangerous_a practice_n then_o the_o other_o order_n the_o three_o estate_n have_v be_v great_o want_v to_o their_o excellent_a providence_n and_o wisdom_n if_o they_o shall_v have_v relinquish_v and_o transfer_v the_o care_n of_o designment_n and_o project_n for_o the_o life_n of_o their_o king_n and_o the_o safety_n of_o his_o crown_n to_o the_o clergy_n alone_o moreover_o the_o clergy_n stand_v bind_v to_o refer_v the_o judgement_n of_o all_o matter_n in_o controversy_n to_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o pope_n in_o this_o cause_n be_v a_o party_n and_o one_o that_o pretend_v crown_n to_o depend_v upon_o his_o mitre_n what_o hope_v then_o may_v the_o three_o estate_n conceive_v that_o his_o holiness_n will_v pass_v against_o his_o own_o cause_n when_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o controversy_n have_v be_v sundry_a time_n before_o publish_v and_o testify_v to_o the_o world_n and_o whereas_o the_o plot_n or_o model_n of_o remedy_n project_v by_o the_o three_o estate_n and_o the_o king_n officer_n have_v not_o prove_v sortable_a in_o the_o event_n be_v it_o because_o the_o say_a remedy_n be_v not_o good_a and_o lawful_a no_o very_o but_o because_o the_o clergy_n refuse_v to_o become_v contributor_n of_o their_o duty_n &_o mean_n to_o the_o grand_a service_n likewise_o for_o that_o after_o the_o burn_a of_o book_n address_v to_o justify_v rebellious_a people_n traitor_n and_o parricide_n of_o king_n nevertheless_o the_o author_n of_o the_o say_a book_n be_v wink_v at_o and_o back_v with_o favour_n last_o for_o that_o some_o wretched_a parricide_n drink_v off_o the_o cup_n of_o public_a justice_n whereas_o to_o the_o firebrand_n of_o sedition_n the_o sower_n of_o this_o abominable_a doctrine_n no_o man_n say_v so_o much_o as_o black_a be_v their_o eye_n it_o sufficient_o appear_v as_o i_o suppose_v by_o the_o former_a passage_n that_o his_o lordship_n exhort_v the_o three_o estate_n to_o refer_v the_o whole_a care_n of_o this_o regal_a cause_n unto_o the_o clergy_n have_v tack_v his_o frame_n of_o weak_a joint_n and_o tenon_n to_o a_o very_a worthy_a but_o wrong_a foundation_n 9_o howbeit_o he_o

only_o according_a to_o humane_a and_o historical_a certainty_n now_o a_o three_o point_n he_o make_v to_o be_v so_o full_a of_o controversy_n and_o so_o far_o within_o the_o circle_n of_o

and_o jumble_v therewith_o some_o point_n in_o controversy_n now_o the_o question_n so_o disputable_a as_o he_o pretend_v be_v this_o a_o christian_a prince_n break_v his_o oath_n solemn_o take_v to_o
