Wherein likewise the traiterous, antimonarchicall doctrines, practises and attempts of papists upon their soveraignes prerogatives, crownes, persons, with the dangerous consequences, effects, and designes, of their present illegall arming, and accesse to the Kings Army, and person by meanes of evill counsellours, are briefely discovered; ...

The Pope is in the Church as a King is in his Kingdome and for a King to be of more authority then his Kingdome it were too absurd Ergo Neither ought the Pope to be above the Church In every well ordered Kingdome it ought specially to be desired that the whole Realme should be of more authority then the King which if it happened contrary were not to be called a Kingdome but a Tyranny And like as oftentimes Kings which doe wickedly governe the Common-wealth and expresse cruelty are deprived of â—heir Kingdomes even so it is not to bee doubted but that the Bishop of Rome may be deposed by the Church that is to say by the generall Councell At the beginning as * Lib. 2. Cicero in his Offices saith it is certaine there was a time when as the people lived without Kings But afterwards when Lands and possessions began to be divided according to the Custome of every Nation then were Kings ordained for no other causes but onely to execute justice for when at the beginning the common people were oppressed by rich and mighty men they ran by and by to some good and vertuous man which should defend the poore from injury and ordaine Lawes whereby the rich and poore might dwell together But when as yet under the rule of Kings the poore were oftentimeâ— oppressed Lawes were ordained and instituted the which should judge neither for hatred nor favour and give like eare unto the poore as rich whereby wee understand and know not onely the people but also the King to be subject to the Law For if wee doe see a King to contemne and dispise the Lawes violently rob and spoyle his Subjects dâ—flower Virgins dishonest Matrons and doe all things licentiously and temerariously doe not the Nobles of the Kingdome Assemble together deposing him from his Kingdome set up another in his place which shall sweare to rule and governe uprightly and be obedient unto the Lawes Verily as reason doth perswade even so
