excommunication_n excommunication_n be_v a_o church-censure_n that_o separate_v from_o the_o ecclesiastical_a communion_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o though_o by_o a_o general_a rule_n we_o be_v command_v to_o avoid_v all_o heretic_n and_o excommunicate_v person_n yet_o beside_o that_o of_o itself_o it_o reach_v only_o to_o spiritual_a thing_n unless_o the_o civil_a law_n extend_v it_o far_o the_o canonist_n give_v many_o exception_n one_o be_v which_o nearly_o concern_v our_o case_n that_o of_o relation_n shall_v husband_n and_o wife_n parent_n and_o child_n master_n and_o servant_n be_v bind_v in_o case_n of_o excommunication_n to_o abandon_v one_o another_o what_o confusion_n will_v so_o rash_a a_o doctrine_n bring_v into_o the_o world_n and_o be_v it_o not_o far_o worse_o if_o subject_n shall_v think_v it_o lawful_a to_o forsake_v their_o king_n nay_o unlawful_a not_o to_o forsake_v he_o thus_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v evident_o false_a and_o if_o once_o admit_v for_o such_o it_o be_v own_o weight_n will_v soon_o sink_v it_o down_o into_o impious_a and_o what_o be_v impious_a especial_o draw_v after_o it_o such_o mischievous_a effect_n will_v easy_o be_v prove_v against_o the_o very_a essence_n of_o the_o christian_a law_n and_o by_o consequence_n intrinsical_o heretical_a if_o yet_o you_o think_v this_o opinion_n not_o so_o high_o censurable_a i_o beseech_v you_o inform_v i_o x._o whether_o any_o of_o these_o position_n deserve_v the_o condemnation_n of_o heretical_a that_o the_o pope_n have_v a_o direct_a dominion_n both_o in_o spiritual_n and_o
