direct_v we_o to_o speak_v of_o delegate_n of_o subordinate_a magistrate_n and_o such_o as_o be_v in_o commission_n from_o the_o prince_n but_o of_o the_o supreme_a prince_n himself_o the_o sovereign_a magistrate_n ordain_v by_o nature_n and_o confirm_v by_o succession_n our_o question_n be_v whether_o such_o a_o prince_n can_v be_v unthrone_v by_o the_o pope_n by_o who_o he_o be_v not_o place_v in_o the_o throne_n and_o whether_o the_o pope_n can_v despoil_v such_o a_o prince_n of_o that_o royalty_n which_o be_v never_o give_v he_o by_o the_o pope_n under_o any_o pretend_a colour_n and_o imputation_n of_o heresy_n of_o stupidity_n or_o infringe_v the_o privilege_n of_o monastery_n or_o transgress_v the_o law_n and_o line_n of_o holy_a matrimony_n now_o that_o s._n paul_n

but_o a_o stand_n and_o a_o perpetual_a rule_n it_o be_v hereby_o more_o than_o manifest_a s._n paul_n have_v ground_v this_o commandment_n upon_o certain_a reason_n not_o only_o constant_a and_o permanent_a by_o their_o proper_a nature_n but_o likewise_o necessary_a for_o every_o state_n condition_n and_o revolution_n of_o the_o time_n his_o reason_n because_o all_o power_n be_v ordain_v of_o god_n because_o resist_v of_o power_n be_v resist_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n because_o the_o magistrate_n bear_v the_o sword_n to_o execute_v justice_n because_o obedience_n and_o subjection_n to_o the_o magistrate_n be_v necessary_a not_o only_o for_o fear_n of_o his_o wrath_n or_o fear_v of_o punishment_n but_o also_o for_o conscience_n sake_n it_o be_v therefore_o a_o case_n ground_v upon_o conscience_n it_o be_v not_o a_o law_n devise_v by_o humane_a wisdom_n it_o be_v not_o fashionable_a to_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o time_n apostolical_a instruction_n for_o the_o right_n
