all points no not thrice I thinke verily thorowout all this lying booke of his so neither heere and it would require a great volume alone to examine only some part of his leaues about this point of his shifts and corruptions they are so many and thick and craftily huddled vp together As for example heere First this sentence is not in the Popes Extrauagant at all but only in a certeine addition to the ordinarie Glosse or Commentarie of Io. Picard which addition was made by Petrus Bertrandus a late Writer Secondly this Comment sayth nothing of deposing of Apostata Princes but only affirming the foresayd opinion of Canonists to be true That Christ was Lord absolutely in this life ouer all not only in spirituall authority but in temporall also he inferreth thereby That Christ should not haue sufficiently prouided for the gouernment of his Church and Kingdome vpon earth Nisi vnicum post setalem Vicarium reliquisset qui haec omnia posset except he had left some such one Substitute or Vicar after him as should be able to performe all these things to wit as belong both to spirituall and temporall power according as necessitie shall require Which latter clause you see that T. M. hath cut off as he added the other of Apostata Princes And thus much for his variety of corruptions in this little sentence Now to the thing it selfe So farre P. R. The Answer 131 If I had not purposed to set downe little sentences I am sure my Aduersarie his sentences and censures could not haue beene so great where breuity which I thought would be most gratefull to any iudicious Reader is inuerted vpon me by a calumnious Aduersary as most preiudiciall to my cause First for citing the Extrauagants of the Pope whereby an ingenuous Reader would haue vnderstood a figure Synecdoche where the part is put for the whole as when wee say This man shall not come vnder my roofe meaning by roofe which is but a part of the house the whole house it selfe So heere by Extrauagant might haue been meant the whole body of these Constitutions which conteine both Extrauagants and Glosses which is heerein found to be most consonant because Pope Gregory 13. hath ratified the foresayd Glosse and Annotations with priuilege and authority equiualent and answerable to the authoritie of the Decretat● and Extrauagants themselues If hearing one of P. R. his scholars make a Syllogisme like that which P. R. himselfe framed which hath neither mood not figure this likewise had been approued by him some should presently say to the boy Sirra this is P. R. his Syllogisme I do not thinke that P. R. would call him a lier 132 To the second P. R. might haue answered for me That the words Apostata Princes were not my Addition but the obiections of my Aduersary the Moderate Answerer as may appeare by P. R. his owne relation And when I sayd That the same obiection was in the extrauagants I could not think that any Aduersary euer could haue beene either by reason of ignorance so sottish or by malice so peruerse as to exact that the obiection be found in the place 〈…〉 for so there should be no end of cauilling but be contented to finde it in the true sense which sense euen this my Accuser doth plainly acknowledge laying as we haue heard this same Extrauagant as the ground of Gods prouidence in the Pope his supposed Vicar of Christ by whose power spirituall and temporall any Prince extirpating Christian religion may be remooued which is no more than I sayd was contained in the Extrauagants But such is the malignity of this Mitigator that he will not allow in his Aduersarie which he practiseth himselfe and not he only but euen the known canons of his Popes are guilty if it be a guilt of the same citing the text of Deut. ●3 6. 〈◊〉 If thy brother or friend or wife go about to depra●● 〈…〉 thy hand be vpon him Wheras the text is If they intice thee saying let vs goe serue strange Gods c. But these words Depraue the truth c. are not to be found yet because they containe the true sense I should thinke it impiety either in another or in my selfe to note as he doth me his Canons and consequently his Popes of lying shifts and corruptions 133 The last shift he findeth fault with is for cutting off the clause Nisi vnicum What needed any addition of that which was sufficiently expressed in my Aduersaries obiection and by me acknowledged to bee contained in the Extrauagants as we haue heard If there bee any shift in my citation I must confesse it thus viz. the not adding these words of that glosse Iesus de iure naturali in Imperatorem quascunque alios depositionis sententiam ferre potuisset damnationis quascunque alias c. eadem ratione vicarius eius potest That is As Iesus by his naturall right might enter into iudgement and pronounce sentence of deposing an Emperour or any other person So may meaning the Pope Christs vicar also This is the Popish glosse and the ground of those Romish rebellious positions which I did discouer and which prooueth our Mitigatour an excellent shifter who saith that heere was nothing said of deposing Apostata Princes to the end his Reader might conceiue my Answer to haue beene altogether impertinent But I pray you P. R. can Apostata Princes be excepted where All Princes and Emperonrs are included But I will not vrge against my selfe the former omission of the foresaid sentence of the glosse I know P. R. will too easily pardon me this fault A ninth obiection of falshood therein insulting thus A witting and a manifest lie and cosenage His Latine words were perfidiously alleged 134 P. R. obiecteth thus He Thomas Morton allegeth the words of Bellarmine thus Dum rem ipsam excutio non facilè audeo pronunciare illos in errore fuisse While I do examine well the thing it selfe I dare not presume to pronounce them to haue beene in error to wit Caluin and Beza whereas Bellarmines words are Dum rem ipsam excutio Caluini sententias diligenter considero non facilè audeo pronuntiare illum in hoc errore fuisse While I examine the matter it selfe and diligently consider Caluins opinions I do not easily presume to pronounce him to haue beene in this error to wit in the particular error or heresie of the Autotheans set downe and confuted by ●●enebrard and in his sense condemned expresly by the ancient Catholike Church for denying Christ to bee and to haue his essence from the Father but yet though in some sense it seemeth to Bellarmine that Caluin may be excused in this priuate and particular meaning of his yet not absolutely as T. M. would haue his Reader to thinke by striking out cunningly the particle hoc this error and leauing the word Errour in common as though Bellarmine had excused him
