nothing_o but_o that_o which_o christ_n institute_v be_v the_o essential_a matter_n and_o form_n of_o the_o order_n of_o priesthood_n but_o christ_n never_o institute_v the_o touch_v of_o the_o

and_o the_o latin_a church_n also_o for_o a_o thousand_o year_n after_o christ_n have_v never_o any_o valid_a ordination_n because_o they_o all_o want_v the_o essential_o of_o priesthood_n for_o all_o

and_o of_o vast_a consequence_n for_o no_o priest_n no_o church_n what_o then_o must_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o keep_v up_o and_o maintain_v their_o innovation_n which_o be_v a_o mere_a

work_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n into_o a_o anxiety_n and_o sedulous_a industry_n to_o find_v a_o remedy_n wherefore_o to_o salve_v this_o sore_a they_o will_v never_o reordain_v their_o proselyte_n that_o have_v desert_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o greek_a church_n and_o embrace_v they_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a in_o all_o occasion_n declare_v the_o ordination_n of_o the_o greek_a church_n

that_o the_o ordination_n of_o the_o greek_n can_v be_v valid_a without_o the_o essential_o of_o ordination_n which_o the_o roman_a church_n place_v in_o the_o touch_v of_o the_o holy_a vessel_n with_o this_o form_n accipe_fw-la potestatem_fw-la etc._n etc._n receive_v a_o power_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n etc._n etc._n for_o these_o the_o greek_n never_o use_v you_o be_v as_o good_a tell_v

may_v be_v two_o essence_n of_o ordination_n so_o that_o each_o take_v apart_o from_o the_o other_o make_v the_o ordination_n valid_a so_o when_o the_o greek_n ordain_v they_o use_v for_o matter_n the_o imposition_n of_o hand_n and_o for_o form_n these_o word_n divina_fw-la gratia_fw-la etc._n etc._n the_o divine_a grace_n which_o always_o heal_v that_o which_o be_v infirm_a and_o supply_n that_o which_o be_v defective_a promote_v this_o most_o holy_a deacon_n to_o be_v a_o priest_n by_o this_o matter_n and_o form_n the_o greek_n do_v valid_o confer_v the_o order_n of_o priesthood_n and_o when_o the_o romanist_n ordain_v they_o do_v the_o like_a by_o their_o peculiar_a matter_n and_o form_n so_o that_o neither_o be_v rigorous_o necessary_a but_o either_o may_v suffice_v this_o doctrine_n be_v very_o paradoxical_a for_o in_o substance_n it_o assert_n that_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n may_v have_v two_o complete_a and_o adequate_a essence_n specifical_o and_o generical_o different_a from_o each_o other_o which_o be_v impossible_a for_o a_o thing_n and_o his_o adequate_a essence_n be_v the_o same_o and_o nothing_o can_v be_v specifical_o or_o generical_o different_a from_o its_o self_n but_o you_o will_v say_v these_o be_v not_o two_o essence_n of_o the_o same_o thing_n but_o two_o different_a cause_n of_o the_o same_o effect_n to_o solve_v this_o i_o must_v distinguish_v between_o the_o order_n itself_o and_o the_o ordination_n the_o order_n be_v that_o spiritual_a power_n which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o ordain_v by_o virtue_n of_o his_o ordination_n from_o whence_o result_v the_o order_n together_o with_o its_o concomitant_a supernatural_a effect_n which_o be_v the_o character_n and_o sacramental_a grace_n that_o be_v inseparable_a from_o it_o the_o ordination_n be_v make_v up_o of_o those_o action_n and_o word_n which_o the_o ordainer_n exercise_v and_o appli_v to_o the_o ordain_v so_o that_o the_o ordination_n participate_v more_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o causality_n then_o of_o a_o cause_n and_o the_o whole_a essence_n of_o this_o ordination_n be_v the_o matter_n and_o form_n institute_v by_o christ_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v assume_v by_o the_o original_a instituter_n and_o by_o he_o elevate_v and_o impower_v to_o produce_v such_o admirable_a supernatural_a and_o sacramental_a effect_n be_v the_o essence_n of_o ordination_n so_o that_o order_n be_v the_o effect_n and_o ordination_n the_o cause_n wherefore_o if_o you_o appoint_v new_a essential_o of_o ordination_n you_o not_o only_o grant_v two_o cause_n of_o the_o same_o effect_n but_o two_o essence_n of_o the_o same_o thing_n whereby_o you_o render_v ordination_n specifical_o and_o essential_o distinct_a from_o its_o self_n and_o because_o none_o but_o a_o omnipotent_a power_n can_v raise_v natural_a cause_n to_o such_o vigour_n and_o energy_n as_o to_o produce_v such_o extraordinary_a effect_n therefore_o that_o matter_n and_o form_n which_o christ_n have_v institute_v to_o this_o end_n be_v the_o total_a essence_n of_o ordination_n and_o herein_o the_o greek_n have_v the_o advantage_n for_o they_o ever_o use_v the_o imposition_n of_o hand_n with_o the_o form_n above_o mention_v which_o the_o primitive_a church_n receive_v from_o the_o apostle_n and_o they_o from_o christ_n so_o the_o greek_n be_v sure_a that_o their_o ordination_n have_v a_o legal_a and_o valid_a institution_n but_o where_o shall_v we_o find_v another_o adequate_a essence_n of_o ordination_n by_o divine_a institution_n that_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v no_o such_o prerogative_n for_o we_o know_v its_o origine_fw-la and_o have_v scan_v its_o pedigree_n whereby_o we_o find_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o human_a authority_n to_o authorise_v it_o which_o have_v no_o proportion_n to_o such_o wonderful_a effect_n which_o be_v out_o of_o the_o reach_n of_o nature_n and_o none_o but_o a_o omnipotent_a power_n can_v produce_v hence_o we_o ground_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o valid_a ordination_n which_o have_v but_o one_o certain_a and_o determinate_a nature_n and_o essence_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o power_n upon_o earth_n that_o can_v add_v to_o it_o or_o take_v from_o it_o so_o that_o in_o vain_a you_o assign_v the_o touch_v of_o the_o vessel_n with_o its_o form_n for_o a_o

by_o word_n nor_o action_n who_o then_o dare_v obtrude_v this_o as_o belong_v to_o the_o essence_n of_o ordination_n which_o be_v of_o divine_a right_n as_o all_o

imposition_n of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o presbytery_n which_o refer_v to_o none_o but_o the_o second_o imposition_n of_o hand_n according_a to_o the_o roman_a pontifical_a for_o in_o this_o alone_a the_o bishop_n join_v his_o right_a hand_n with_o the_o other_o priest_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o ordain_v in_o this_o opinion_n morinus_n be_v singular_a for_o i_o find_v no_o author_n that_o hold_v it_o but_o himself_o neither_o be_v it_o probable_a that_o the_o validity_n of_o ordination_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n must_v rely_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o one_o single_a author_n who_o be_v a_o better_a historian_n than_o divine_a in_o opposition_n to_o all_o other_o author_n wherefore_o my_o first_o answer_n be_v that_o this_o imposition_n of_o hand_n which_o morinus_n insist_o upon_o can_v valid_o confer_v the_o order_n of_o priesthood_n for_o want_v of_o a_o intention_n in_o the_o minister_n to_o confer_v it_o hereby_o for_o no_o bishop_n that_o ordain_v can_v prudent_o intend_v to_o ordain_v by_o this_o imposition_n of_o hand_n only_o neither_o can_v the_o church_n intend_v it_o first_o because_o there_o be_v but_o one_o author_n that_o hold_v it_o all_o the_o divine_n be_v whole_o against_o it_o assert_v it_o to_o be_v only_o a_o accidental_a ceremony_n preparative_n to_o the_o collation_n of_o order_n but_o not_o at_o all_o belong_v to_o the_o essence_n of_o it_o for_o the_o great_a part_n of_o divine_n and_o common_a persuasion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n admit_v no_o imposition_n of_o hand_n at_o all_o as_o belong_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o ordination_n but_o place_n the_o whole_a essence_n thereof_o in_o the_o touch_v the_o instrument_n and_o their_o form_n other_o that_o allow_v to_o the_o imposition_n of_o hand_n a_o partial_a concurrence_n together_o with_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o vessel_n yet_o none_o of_o they_o make_v choice_n of_o this_o imposition_n of_o hand_n but_o they_o all_o attribute_v this_o partial_a virtue_n to_o the_o three_o imposition_n of_o hand_n after_o communion_n with_o this_o form_n accipe_fw-la spiritum_fw-la sanctum_fw-la quorum_fw-la remiseritis_fw-la etc._n etc._n receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o sin_n etc._n etc._n second_o because_o if_o the_o church_n or_o the_o ordainer_n shall_v intend_v ordination_n of_o priest_n to_o be_v confer_v by_o this_o imposition_n of_o hand_n and_o the_o prayer_n that_o accompany_n it_o as_o the_o total_a and_o complete_a essence_n and_o substance_n thereof_o they_o will_v thereby_o render_v the_o exhibit_v of_o the_o instrument_n and_o their_o form_n whole_o useless_a which_o will_v reflect_v upon_o the_o church_n prudence_n and_o discretion_n in_o introduce_v they_o for_o no_o other_o necessity_n of_o this_o superinduction_n contrary_a to_o the_o constant_a practice_n of_o antiquity_n can_v be_v ground_o assign_v but_o to_o be_v a_o adequate_a or_o a_o partial_a cause_n of_o priesthood_n my_o second_o answer_n be_v that_o the_o form_n which_o accompani_v the_o tender_v of_o the_o instrument_n do_v so_o plain_o so_o express_o and_o so_o explicit_o signify_v the_o order_n of_o priesthood_n to_o be_v thereby_o confer_v that_o no_o ordainer_n that_o be_v in_o his_o right_a wit_n can_v any_o way_n doubt_n of_o it_o or_o call_v it_o in_o question_n but_o that_o the_o church_n by_o add_v this_o matter_n and_o form_n intend_v thereby_o to_o confer_v to_o the_o ordain_v the_o power_n of_o offer_v sacrifice_n wherein_o they_o place_v the_o essence_n of_o priesthood_n if_o then_o this_o power_n be_v give_v the_o
