receive_v p._n 9_o ed._n 1._o to_o this_o the_o reflect_a answer_n that_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n be_v receive_v here_o and_o all_o the_o catholic_n world_n over_o as_o to_o all_o its_o definition_n of_o faith_n p._n 5._o by_o which_o 5._o i_o suppose_v he_o mean_v that_o all_o english_a catholic_n do_v own_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n and_o take_v their_o rule_n of_o faith_n from_o it_o but_o this_o be_v not_o what_o the_o answerer_n mean_v by_o that_o question_n whether_o english_a catholic_n single_o for_o themselves_o and_o in_o their_o private_a capacity_n own_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n but_o by_o what_o public_a act_n of_o church_n or_o state_n it_o have_v be_v receive_v in_o england_n as_o it_o have_v be_v in_o other_o catholic_n country_n the_o church_n of_o england_n have_v no_o representative_n in_o that_o council_n nor_o do_v by_o any_o after_o act_n own_o its_o authority_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o authentic_a and_o obligatory_a rule_n here_o but_o allow_v the_o authority_n of_o this_o rule_n to_o determine_v what_o be_v popery_n and_o what_o not_o which_o the_o answerer_n allow_v reasonable_a enough_o consider_v that_o its_o definition_n of_o faith_n be_v receive_v all_o the_o catholic_n world_n over_o as_o the_o reflecter_n say_v the_o great_a difficulty_n be_v about_o the_o interpretation_n of_o this_o rule_n for_o not_o only_o we_o heretic_n interpret_v this_o council_n a_o little_a different_o from_o our_o author_n but_o catholic_n doctor_n themselves_o can_v agree_v about_o it_o now_o when_o other_o good_a catholic_n differ_v from_o he_o in_o explain_v the_o definition_n and_o decree_n of_o this_o council_n why_o must_v his_o sense_n and_o not_o they_o pass_v for_o the_o character_n of_o a_o papist_n pope_n pius_n iv._o do_v strict_o forbid_v any_o private_a man_n to_o interpret_v the_o council_n according_a to_o his_o own_o private_a sense_n and_o opinion_n but_o if_o any_o dispute_v happen_v about_o the_o true_a meaning_n of_o their_o definition_n and_o decree_n he_o reserve_v the_o decision_n of_o it_o to_o the_o apostolic_a see_n and_o a_o very_a wise_a decree_n it_o be_v consider_v that_o many_o of_o their_o definition_n be_v pen_v in_o loose_a and_o ambiguous_a word_n on_o purpose_n to_o compose_v the_o dispute_n and_o difference_n of_o their_o divine_n who_o be_v many_o time_n very_o troublesome_a to_o the_o council_n that_o each_o party_n may_v think_v their_o own_o sense_n favour_v but_o then_o consider_v what_o ill_a consequence_n this_o may_v be_v of_o to_o suffer_v they_o to_o dispute_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o council_n and_o wrest_v it_o to_o countenance_v their_o private_a opinion_n which_o will_v rather_o inflame_v than_o compose_v these_o dispute_n a_o fresh_a example_n of_o which_o they_o have_v in_o the_o dispute_n between_o catharinus_n and_o soto_n while_o the_o council_n be_v sit_v the_o pope_n very_o prudent_o forbid_v this_o that_o if_o they_o will_v still_o wrangle_v among_o themselves_o yet_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o council_n may_v not_o be_v concern_v in_o it_o but_o now_o if_o their_o doctor_n do_v differ_v still_o about_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o council_n and_o affix_v their_o private_a opinion_n on_o it_o and_o pope_n think_v fit_a rather_o to_o connive_v at_o these_o difference_n than_o to_o undertake_v to_o determine_v they_o why_o must_v any_o one_o of_o these_o different_a opinion_n be_v so_o make_v the_o character_n of_o a_o papist_n as_o to_o exclude_v the_o other_o if_o some_o and_o those_o of_o great_a note_n and_o authority_n in_o the_o church_n and_o not_o inferior_a in_o number_n to_o say_v no_o more_o be_v for_o the_o depose_n doctrine_n and_o other_o against_o it_o why_o must_v those_o only_o be_v think_v papist_n who_o deny_v this_o depose_n power_n and_o not_o those_o also_o who_o assert_v it_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n or_o not_o be_v a_o dispute_n between_o they_o and_o though_o our_o author_n deny_v that_o it_o be_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o that_o a_o papist_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o believe_v it_o yet_o those_o who_o be_v for_o the_o depose_n power_n assert_v that_o it_o be_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o with_o much_o great_a reason_n than_o he_o deny_v it_o and_o what_o authority_n have_v he_o to_o decide_v this_o dispute_n and_o who_o give_v he_o this_o authority_n do_v not_o his_o representation_n of_o a_o papist_n in_o this_o point_n depend_v upon_o his_o own_o private_a sense_n and_o opinion_n no_o he_o say_v 6._o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v guilty_a of_o this_o fault_n of_o interpret_n the_o council_n of_o trent_n in_o

trick_n with_o the_o catechism_n and_o expound_v that_o by_o a_o private_a spirit_n as_o well_o as_o the_o council_n well_o but_o he_o appeal_v in_o his_o conclusion_n to_o veron_n '_o s_o rule_n of_o

to_o his_o own_o character_n which_o may_v have_v as_o much_o authority_n for_o aught_o i_o know_v as_o veron_n rule_n but_o beside_o veron_n he_o appeal_v to_o the_o bishop_n of_o condom_n who_o

to_o expound_v the_o council_n of_o trent_n which_o be_v entire_o reserve_v to_o the_o apostolic_a see_n than_o private_a doctor_n yes_o the_o bishop_n of_o condom_n book_n have_v all_o requisite_a

i_o shall_v take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v as_o the_o reflecter_n say_v but_o what_o then_o have_v not_o cardinal_n bellarmin_n controversy_n as_o great_a a_o attestation_n as_o the_o

controversy_n as_o authentic_a a_o rule_n for_o the_o exposition_n of_o the_o catholic_n faith_n as_o the_o bishop_n of_o condom_n but_o melchior_n canus_n to_o who_o the_o reflecter_n refer_v we_o will_v have_v teach_v he_o that_o the_o pope_n private_a approbation_n be_v as_o little_a worth_n as_o any_o other_o bishop_n 5._o that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o apostolic_a see_v do_v not_o signify_v
