A02990	A friendly triall of the grounds tending to separation in a plain and modest dispute touching the lawfulnesse of a stinted liturgie and set form of prayer, Communion in mixed assemblies, and the primitive subject and first receptacle of the power of the Keyes: tending to satisfie the doubtfull, recall the wandering, and to strengthen the weak: by John Ball.	Ball, John, 1585-1640.	1640 (1640)	STC 1313; ESTC S122227	213,948	338

but_o authority_n and_o power_n only_o to_o apply_v that_o power_n to_o he_o who_o they_o choose_v the_o power_n of_o the_o imperial_a dignity_n be_v not_o in_o the_o electour_n of_o the_o emperor_n
