ordinance_n to_o a_o stand_a law_n the_o king_n consent_n be_v require_v but_o with_o what_o qualification_n and_o exception_n we_o need_v not_o here_o to_o debate_v since_o his_o majesty_n consent_n

parliament_n the_o praelate_n take_v to_o themselves_o a_o negative_a voice_n in_o parliament_n that_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n both_o together_o can_v make_v a_o law_n to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o bishop_n without_o their_o own_o consent_n they_o be_v the_o three_o order_n of_o the_o kingdom_n for_o albeit_o it_o be_v sacrilege_n in_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o to_o claim_v any_o the_o

henry_n the_o eight_o and_o his_o parliament_n when_o they_o put_v down_o the_o abbot_n and_o the_o friar_n we_o must_v believe_v that_o henry_n the_o eight_o his_o abolish_n the_o order_n of_o monk_n be_v one_o of_o the_o act_n of_o his_o great_a tyranny_n and_o greed_n we_o must_v not_o doubt_v but_o according_a to_o law_n and_o reason_n abbot_n and_o priour_n ought_v to_o have_v keep_v still_o their_o vote_n in_o parliament_n that_o the_o monasterye_n and_o nunryes_n shall_v have_v stand_v in_o their_o integrity_n that_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n do_v wrong_v in_o cast_v they_o down_o and_o that_o now_o they_o ought_v in_o conscience_n to_o be_v set_v up_o again_o yea_o that_o henry_n the_o eight_o against_o all_o reason_n and_o conscience_n do_v renounce_v his_o due_a obedience_n to_o the_o pope_n the_o patriarch_n of_o the_o west_n the_o first_o bishop_n of_o the_o universe_n to_o who_o the_o superinspection_n and_o government_n of_o the_o whole_a catholic_n church_n in_o all_o reason_n do_v belong_v though_o all_o this_o be_v here_o glance_v at_o by_o the_o warner_n and_o elsewhere_o we_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v the_o declare_a mind_n of_o his_o brethren_n yet_o we_o must_v be_v pardon_v not_o to_o accept_v they_o as_o undeniable_a principle_n of_o clear_a demonstration_n covenant_n the_o just_a supremacy_n of_o king_n be_v not_o prejudge_v by_o the_o covenant_n the_o last_o ground_n of_o the_o doctor_n demonstration_n be_v that_o the_o covenant_n be_v a_o oath_n to_o set_v up_o the_o presbyterian_a government_n in_o england_n as_o it_o be_v in_o scotland_n &_o that_o this_o be_v contrary_n to_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n for_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n make_v the_o ●ing_n the_o only_a supreme_a head_n and_o governor_n of_o the_o church_n of_o
