as_o you_o say_v before_o dispose_v otherwise_o than_o christ_n have_v do_v your_o priest_n do_v so_o but_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o do_v so_o the_o prince_n can_v not_o do_v it_o nor_o he_o do_v it_o nor_o claim_v to_o do_v it_o nor_o it_o be_v ascribe_v unto_o he_o yea_o though_o you_o mean_v by_o dispose_v no_o alteration_n yet_o be_v this_o a_o hard_a phrase_n to_o say_v that_o prince_n or_o priest_n either_o dispose_v of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o rather_o dispose_v of_o matter_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ._n and_o this_o as_o the_o priest_n may_v do_v in_o his_o vocation_n so_o may_v the_o prince_n in_o his_o estate_n which_o though_o it_o be_v not_o express_v by_o name_n but_o comprehend_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n yet_o be_v it_o even_o by_o name_n

yourself_o confess_v the_o one_o government_n be_v a_o figure_n of_o the_o other_o and_o that_o the_o government_n before_o christ_n he_o neither_o break_v it_o nor_o diminish_v it_o it_o follow_v that_o they_o he_o leave_v it_o entire_a and_o confirm_v it_o and_o therefore_o although_o the_o prince_n dispose_v of_o church_n matter_n be_v not_o by_o name_n express_v yet_o be_v it_o by_o your_o reason_n necessary_o comprehend_v and_o so_o you_o answer_v yourself_o now_o after_o he_o have_v thus_o as_o he_o suppose_v debar_v prince_n from_o all_o warrant_n out_o of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n
