encroach_a upon_o the_o supreme_a ecclesiastical_a jurisdiction_n of_o the_o crown_n and_o therefore_o the_o canonical_a obedience_n approve_v and_o require_v in_o our_o church_n by_o the_o oath_n of_o canonical_a obedience_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v such_o obedience_n as_o those_o canon_n require_v because_o the_o superior_a clergy_n can_v out_o of_o command_n require_v more_o nor_o the_o inferior_a clergy_n out_o of_o obedience_n yield_v more_o without_o prejudice_n to_o the_o king_n supreme_a ecclesiastical_a jurisdiction_n this_o will_v appear_v most_o evident_o by_o the_o first_o of_o the_o first_o of_o eliz._n by_o the_o 19_o and_o 21._o chap._n of_o the_o 25._o of_o henry_n 8._o and_o by_o the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n the_o first_o of_o the_o 1._o of_o elizabeth_n be_v a_o

why_o may_v he_o not_o by_o the_o same_o course_n do_v the_o like_a at_o the_o visitation_n nay_o why_o shall_v he_o at_o the_o visitation_n go_v about_o by_o examination_n to_o question_v the_o

there_o to_o preach_v which_o by_o the_o former_a text_n and_o title_n he_o may_v not_o do_v will_v be_v for_o his_o profit_n and_o ease_v therefore_o in_o the_o foresay_a text_n by_o a_o verbal_a transmutation_n he_o will_v convert_v examination_n into_o preach_v and_o ordination_n and_o institution_n into_o visitation_n and_o so_o where_o the_o canon_n law_n say_v that_o he_o be_v to_o examine_v we_o at_o our_o ordination_n and_o institution_n he_o will_v make_v it_o say_v that_o we_o be_v to_o preach_v to_o he_o and_o for_o he_o at_o his_o visitation_n where_o the_o law_n say_v that_o this_o eye_n be_v to_o look_v into_o the_o clergy_n by_o examination_n at_o their_o ordination_n and_o institution_n that_o be_v before_o their_o preferment_n he_o will_v make_v it_o say_v that_o this_o eye_n be_v to_o look_v into_o they_o after_o their_o preferment_n by_o hear_v they_o preach_v at_o the_o visitation_n as_o if_o their_o preferment_n be_v to_o go_v before_o their_o
