oppose_a and_o traduce_v by_o roman_a catholik_o because_o it_o attribute_n to_o the_o king_n only_o civil_a authority_n and_o power_n and_o deny_v to_o the_o pope_n no_o spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a save_v only_o that_o which_o the_o two_o general_a counsel_n of_o ephesus_n and_o chalcedon_n as_o also_o that_o of_o africa_n of_o 217_o bishop_n whereof_o s._n augustin_n be_v one_o deny_v to_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n 2._o that_o the_o pope_n and_o bishop_n of_o the_o roman_a catholic_a church_n for_o these_o last_o 600._o year_n have_v teach_v and_o practise_v enormous_a principle_n which_o godly_a man_n have_v continua_o cry_v down_o as_o wicked_a impious_a heretical_a and_o tyrannical_a and_o that_o the_o usual_a oath_n which_o all_o catholic_a bishop_n have_v take_v at_o their_o consecration_n for_o many_o hundred_o year_n be_v not_o consistent_a with_o the_o loyalty_n all_o christian_n owe_v to_o their_o temporal_a sovereign_n animadversion_n i._o whether_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n attribute_n only_o civil_a authority_n to_o the_o king_n and_o deny_v no_o spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a power_n or_o authority_n to_o the_o pope_n the_o best_a way_n to_o decide_v this_o controversy_n be_v to_o set_v down_o the_o word_n of_o the_o oath_n which_o be_v i._o a._n b._n do_v utter_o testify_v and_o declare_v in_o my_o conscience_n that_o the_o king_n majesty_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 majesty_n dominion_n and_o country_n as_o well_o in_o all_o spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n or_o cause_n as_o temporal_a and_o that_o no_o foreign_a prince_n person_n prelate_n state_n or_o potentate_n have_v or_o aught_o to_o have_v any_o jurisdiction_n power_n superiority_n pre-eminence_n or_o authority_n ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a within_o this_o realm_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v utter_o renounce_v and_o forsake_v all_o foreign_a jurisdiction_n power_n superiority_n and_o authority_n etc._n etc._n so_o help_v i_o god_n and_o the_o content_n of_o this_o book_n mr._n walsh_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o ask_v you_o whether_o you_o ever_o read_v this_o oath_n and_o if_o you_o do_v whether_o you_o be_v sure_a you_o understand_v english_a or_o whether_o better_o than_o englishman_n do_v for_o the_o common_a opinion_n be_v that_o every_o nation_n understand_v its_o own_o language_n better_o than_o stranger_n mr._n walsh_n all_o englishman_n understand_v by_o the_o word_n spiritual_a a_o quite_o different_a thing_n from_o temporal_a as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o thomas_n thomasius_n his_o dictionary_n if_o this_o be_v so_o i_o fear_v you_o will_v hardly_o persuade_v englishmen_n that_o they_o do_v not_o understand_v english_a at_o least_o as_o well_o as_o you_o or_o any_o other_o irish_a man_n now_o to_o the_o point_n do_v not_o the_o oath_n in_o clear_a term_n aver_v that_o the_o king_n be_v the_o only_a supreme_a governor_n of_o england_n and_o of_o all_o other_o his_o dominion_n as_o well_o in_o all_o spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a thing_n or_o cause_n as_o temporal_a be_v temporal_a and_o spiritual_a the_o same_o or_o do_v these_o word_n signify_v the_o same_o if_o not_o how_o can_v you_o prove_v or_o pretend_v that_o no_o spiritual_a authority_n or_o power_n be_v give_v the_o king_n or_o deny_v the_o pope_n by_o this_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n i_o pray_v observe_v if_o the_o king_n be_v the_o only_a supreme_a governor_n of_o his_o dominion_n in_o all_o spiritual_a and_o ecclesiastical_a cause_n or_o thing_n have_v he_o not_o all_o the_o spiritual_a power_n and_o authority_n in_o his_o own_o dominion_n and_o if_o the_o pope_n be_v a_o sorrain_a prince_n person_n or_o prelate_n and_o no_o foreign_a prince_n person_n or_o prelate_n have_v or_o aught_o to_o have_v any_o ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a jurisdiction_n power_n superiority_n pre-eminence_n or_o authority_n within_o his_o majesty_n
