But there needs no more for 't is certain that all contumacious Hereticks as to them all our Bishops are being actually excommunicate as all such Hereticks solemnly are once a year are ipso facto deprived of all Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction and therefore they of Rome do not only say but by their received Law and Canons must say that our Bishops have no Jurisdiction Ecclesiastical and so all their Judgments and Judicial Sentences null and invalid Lastly It is to me a wonder that any knowing person should think that the King and Bishops of England should have no power to Question the Sentence pass'd in the Arch-bishop of Turins Consistory when they do and ought to do so question and justly condemn the Sentence of the Pope in many things concerning Matrimony pass'd in their General Council of Trent And have not the King and Bishops power to do a native and born subject of England right because a Popish Bishop by an injust Sentence has done him wrong Dare any Bishop in England say that the Sentence of the Arch-bishop of Turin unexamin'd or the just reason of it not appearing is a just ground to quite Mr. Cottington's or any Man's Conscience so that he may safely and without Sin co-habit with Gallina her former Husband being yet alive sure I am none should or justly can and therefore I hope none will say so I am Your affectionate Friend and Servant T.

times a Loyal Subject and faithful Servant to his Prince and a true Son of the Church of England c. So that the commendation I can give him although it be great will be ivtra laudem sed infra meritum The old saying is still true Cicerone opus est ut dignè laudetur Cicero I shall only name two passages which concern my Lord which shew his ingenuity and Learning Being with my Lord in Oxford some time after Dr. Hoyle was by the Reb●llio●s Parliament invited out of Ireland and by them design'd Regius Professor of Divinity it seems that we had not then amongst all our English Dissenters any one who durst undertake that Office although it was both for dignity and revenue very considerable Now Dr. Hoyle a known Rebell and Presbyterian being so exceedingly magnify'd in all our Mercuries and News-Books for a most Learned Divine I ask'd my Lord whether Dr. Hoyle was a person of such great parts as was pretended My good Lord presently told us only Dr. Morly since Bishop of Winton and my self were present That he very well knew Dr. Hoyle in Dublin and had him many times at his Table and that he was a person of some few weak parts but of very many strong infirmities This Character which my Lord gave of Dr. Hoyle is like himself very ingenious and the University did find it true Another thing concerning that very ingenious and Learned Lord and very well known to me and many others was this When Mr. Chillingworth undertook the Defence of Dr. Potter's Book against the Jesuite he was almost continually at Tew with my Lord examining the Reasons of both Parties pro and con and their invalidity or consequence where Mr. Chillingworth had the benefit of my Lords Company and his good Library The benefit he had by my Lord's Company and rational Discourse was very great as Mr. Chillingworth would modestly and truly confess But his Library which was well furnish'd with choice Books I have several times been in it and seen them such as Mr. Chillingworth neither had nor ever heard of many of them 'till my Lord shew'd him the Books and the passages in them which were significant and pertinent to the purpose So that it is certain that most of those Ancient Authorities which Mr. Chillingworth makes use of he owes first to my Lord of Falkland s Learning that he could give him so good directions and next to his civility and kindness that he would direct him But no more of this You desire to know some more Authors who in the War between Charles the I. and the Parliament writ for the King you name Dudly Diggs Dr. Ferne Dr. Hammond and you might have named many more all Ingenuous and Loyal persons and my Friends and Acquaintance but I do not think their Reasons so cogent or their Authority so great that we may safely rely upon them I shall rather commend unto you two Writers on this subject both of them of great Authority and in several respects of greater Judgment I mean 1. Arch-Bishop Vsher whose judgment in Antiquity is far greater 2. My Predecessor Bishop Sanderson the best and most rational Casuist ever England had whose judgment will be confest far greater 1. First Arch-Bishop Usher does expresly and datâ operâ make it his business to prove our King's Supremacy in all Civil and Ecclesiastical Causes against all Popes and Parliaments and to the same purpose does amongst others cite Bp. Andrews Hooker Dr. Saravia and which is very considerable there 's a long Preface to the Book of at least 20 pages in Quarto The Book was publish'd by Dr. Bernard Bishop Usher's Chaplain Anno 1661. and Printed at London and Sold by Richard Mariott in St. Dunstan's Church-yard in Fleetstreet The Title of the Book is this Clavi Trabales confirming the King's Supremacy and the Subjects Duty c. 2. This second Author I mention was Dr. Sanderson Bishop of Lincoln in his Tracts 1. De solemni Ligâ Foedere 2. De Juramento Negativo 3. De Ordinationibus Parliamenti circa disciplinam cultum And that which adds honour and weight to these Tracts is this that although Dr. Sanderson then Regius Professor of Divinity composed them yet they contain not his judgment but the judgment of the whole Vniversity of Oxford for it is call'd in the Title page Judicium Vniversitatis Oxoniensis in plena Convocatione Communibus suffragijs nemine contradicente promulgatum 1 Junii 1647. In the last and best Edition besides the 3. Tracts above mention'd you have his excellent Prelections 1. De Obligatione Juramenti promissorii 2. De obligatione conscientiae The last and best Edition I above mention'd was at London Anno 1671. By Richard Royston in St. Paul's Church-yard For answering your other Questions I must as poor men do crave some more time The Circumstances I am in and the very many publick businesses which at this time trouble me did disable me to return to you a speedier answer with my thanks for your kind Letter I beg your pardon for the rude Scrible and my great Age Anno 85. currente and the Infirmities which accompany it consider'd I hope your goodness will grant it I shall only add that God Almighty would be graciously pleas'd to bless you and your Studies is the Prayer of Your Affectionate Friend and Servant Thomas Lincoln The Substance of a Letter Written by Dr. Barlow late Lord Bishop of Lincolne to Mr. Isaac Walton upon his design of Writing the Life of his Predecessour Bishop Sanderson AFTER he has Congratulated Mr. Walton upon his design to write the Life of Bishop Sanderson and that upon two accounts viz. Because he was satisfied both of his ability to know and his Integrity to write Truth And that he was no less assured that the Life of that Prelate would afford him matter enough both for his commendation and for the Imitation of Posterity He next proceeds to gratifie his desires in assisting him towards the said intended Work with the Communication of such particular passages of that Prelates Life as were certainly known to him and gives him a short Narration of which this is the substance First he professes he had known him about twenty Years and that in Oxford he had injoyed his Conversation and Learned and Pious Instructions when he was Royal Professor of Divinity in that University and that after he was by the cross events that hapned in the Civil Wars in the time of King Charles the First forced to retire into the Country he had the benefit of conversing with him by Letters wherein with great candour and affection he answered all doubts he proposed to him and gave him more satisfaction than he ever had or expected from others But to proceed to particulars he further says that having hapned in one of his Letters to the said Dr. Sanderson to mention two or three Books Written professedly against the being of Original Sin and asserting
pag 371. and the Edition prohibited till they be so 4. In their Canon Law all these are of publick Authority received with approbation of their Popes and Church 2. For their agenda Matters of Fact and Discipline their Sacred and Civil Rites and Ceremonies we may have them Authentickly set down in such Books as these 1. In Missali Romano There are very many Editions of it and much differing one from another as is evident and may appear by comparing the Mscs of which we have many in Bodleys Library and some in mine with the Printed Copies the first and more antient with those that follow Besides the Roman Missal which never was in England there are many other proper for other Countries so we had here 1. Missale secundum usum Yorke 2. Missale secundum usum Sarum 3. Missale secundum usum Hereford 4. Secundum Eversham 5. Lincoln 6. Bangor c. 2. Breviarium Romanum There be as many and differing Editions of this and Breviaries of other Churches as well as Rome The Breviary of Sarum so famous in England they call'd it Portiforium c. 3. Pontificiale Romanum Containing their Offices for Ordination Confirmation Consecration of Churches c. and other things peculiar to the Bishop 4. Rituale Romanum continet ritus in administratione Sacramentorum usitatos videl Baptismi Eucharistiae Paenitentiae Matrimonii extremae Vnctionis quorum Administratio ad Parochos spectat c. 5. Sacrarum Ceremoniarum seu Rituum Ecclesiasticorum S. Romanae Eccles libri tres Rom. 1560. Fol. There are many more Editions of it at Ven. 1506. at Col. 1572. and there again 1574. in Octavo who ever desires to be inform'd and convinc'd of the many ridiculous as well as Impious Roman Superstitions and the prodigious Papal Pride let him get that Book Many more Books they have of this kind containing several Sacred Offices or Rites as their Processionale Graduale Paris 1668. Fol. Officium B. Mariae Manuale secundum usum sacrum Hor. B. Virginis c. And to omit the rest Psalterium B. Mariae per Bonaventuram so they call it and amongst his works 't is printed the most impious and blasphemous piece of Superstition and Idolatry that ever the Sun saw for whatever in Davids Psalms is spoken of God or our blessed Saviour is in that Psalter attributed to the Virgin Mary and yet Possevine has the Impudence to say (a) Possevine Apparatu Sacro Verbo Rosarium mihi p. 357. Psalterium Divi Bonaventurae Laudibus B. Virginis summâ pietate Impietate potius in Deum Blasphemâ Idolatricâ Accomodatum All the forenamed Books Councils Canons or Sacred Offices have been received and publickly approved by the Church of Rome and for what Errors or Superstitions occur in them we may justly lay to their charge and they must be responsable for them But not so for the Writings of particular and private men although of greatest eminence in their Church Writers of Controversies 25. Next it will be necessary to have a comprehension of the Popish controversies of their Objections and the Answers and Satisfaction our Men give to their Elaborate Sophisms Books of this kind are many and the Volumes great to read them all is not opus unius hominis aut aetatis Some few I shall name such as 1. Dr. Crakanthorp contra Archiep Spalatensem Quarto Lond. 1625. No Book I have yet seen has so rational and short account of almost all Popish Controversies 2. Guil. Amesii Bellarminus Enervatus I said before he was a Non-conformist but for Rome and Bellarm. he has distinctly propos'd their pretences and given a clear short and rational answer to them Vitus Erbermannus a Jesuit and publick Professor at Mentz has lately published an Answer to Amesius Printed at Herbipolis 1661. two Vol. Octavo But omnia cum fecit Thaida Thais olet 3. Andreae Riveti Catholicus Orthodoxus c. It is extant in his Works Roterod. 1652. in French Saumur 1616. Lat. 2 Tom. 4 to Lugd. Bat. 1630. He well and fully handles all Popish Controversies 4. Chamierus Contractus seu Panstratiae Catholicae Dan. Chamieri Epitome per Frid. Spanhemium one Vol. Fol. Gen. 1645. This is more full and large than the former and may supply their brevity and omissions 5. When there is necessity of farther satisfaction in any Question our Great Men Jewell Raynolds John White Whitaker Laud Chillingworth and others before named may be consulted for none have opposed Rome with more Learning and Success than those To these may be added such as have examined and confuted the Council of Trent As 1. Chemnitii Examen Concil Trident Erancof 1578. 2. Examen Concil Trident. por Innocentium Gentilletum Genev. 1586. Octavo 3. Anatome Concil Trident. Historico Theolog. cum Historia Concil Trident. per Thuanum Vindiciis pro P. Suavo Polano contra Scipionem Henricum per Joh. Hen. Heideggeum Tom. 2. Octavo Tiguri 1672. More such Writers there are but Chemnitius is best 26. For a short comprehension of Popish Controversies how they explain and state them we are told to name one or two who have writ Enchiridia Epitomes or Summaries of their Controversies and how the hold them I say we are told what their Opinions are and the Explications of them in such Books as these 1. Manuale Controversiarum per Mart. Becanum Herbipol 1623. 2. Or if that be too large a Work then we may consult his Enchiridion Manualis Controversiarum hujus Temporis c. Duact 1631. He has Controversiae Lutheranorum 1. 2. Calvinistarum 3. Anabaptistarum 4. Politicorum c. 3. Enchiriaion Controversiarum per Fran. Costerum Jes Col. 1587. postea Turnoni 1591. 4. Controversiae generales Fidei contra Infideles omnes He puts all Protestants in that Catalogue Octavo Par. 1660. 27. And because Scripture is urged on all sides and there are passages in it 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in appearance contradictory 't will be convenient to know some of those Authors as have writ Explicationes Conciliationes Locorum difficilium For instance such as these 1. Frid. Spa●●●●ii dubia Evangelica Tom. 3. Quarto the first Tome Printed at Genev. 1634. The second and third 1639. 2. Guil Estius in Loca Scripturae difficiliora Fol. Duaci 1629.
