office._n for_o it_o be_v not_o in_o ecclesiastical_a as_o it_o be_v in_o civil_a right_n man_n may_v irrevocable_o grant_v away_o their_o own_o civil_a right_n and_o liberty_n but_o all_o the_o authority_n in_o the_o church_n can_v give_v away_o itself_o nor_o grant_v the_o whole_a entire_a episcopacy_n with_o all_o the_o right_n and_o power_n of_o it_o to_o any_o one_o bishop_n if_o bishop_n will_v not_o exercise_v that_o power_n which_o christ_n have_v give_v they_o they_o be_v accountable_a to_o their_o lord_n for_o it_o but_o they_o can_v give_v it_o away_o neither_o from_o themselves_o nor_o from_o their_o successor_n for_o it_o be_v they_o only_a to_o use_v not_o to_o part_v with_o and_o therefore_o every_o bishop_n may_v reassume_v such_o right_n though_o a_o general_a council_n shall_v give_v they_o away_o because_o the_o grant_n be_v void_a in_o itself_o 3_o especial_o when_o the_o regular_a mean_n of_o redress_n be_v make_v impossible_a by_o such_o

themselves_o be_v fond_a of_o or_o if_o they_o will_v have_v they_o redress_v if_o they_o can_v yet_o dare_v not_o venture_v to_o attempt_v it_o must_v all_o bishop_n now_o and_o church_n quiet_o submit_v to_o such_o usurpation_n because_o the_o great_a number_n of_o they_o will_v not_o or_o dare_v not_o vindicate_v their_o own_o right_n be_v it_o then_o unlawful_a for_o christian_a bishop_n to_o exercise_n that_o authority_n which_o christ_n have_v give_v they_o and_o of_o which_o they_o must_v give_v a_o account_n if_o they_o happen_v to_o be_v out-voted_n by_o other_o bishop_n i_o grant_v the_o less_o number_n of_o bishop_n can_v make_v law_n for_o the_o universal_a church_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o great_a number_n whatever_o constitution_n owe_v their_o authority_n to_o

of_o our_o saviour_n and_o exercise_v that_o authority_n which_o he_o have_v give_v he_o without_o ask_v leave_n of_o general_a council_n nay_o in_o opposition_n to_o they_o for_o the_o authority_n and_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v beyond_o all_o the_o general_a council_n in_o the_o world._n 4._o especial_o when_o we_o have_v the_o consent_n of_o much_o the_o great_a number_n of_o bishop_n without_o their_o meeting_n in_o a_o general_a council_n all_o the_o eastern_a bishop_n which_o be_v much_o more_o numerous_a than_o the_o western_a i_o can_v say_v have_v cast_v off_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n because_o they_o never_o own_v it_o but_o yet_o they_o oppose_v and_o reject_v his_o authority_n as_o much_o as_o the_o bishop_n of_o england_n do_v and_o therefore_o our_o reformer_n in_o cast_v off_o the_o pope_n do_v nothing_o but_o what_o they_o have_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o whole_a eastern_a church_n to_o justify_v which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v as_o good_a as_o a_o council_n of_o western_a bishop_n though_o they_o may_v call_v it_o general_n for_o the_o business_n of_o a_o council_n in_o such_o case_n be_v not_o to_o consent_v to_o some_o new_a law_n but_o to_o declare_v ancient_a and_o original_a right_n and_o if_o we_o have_v their_o authentic_a declaration_n in_o this_o matter_n we_o need_v no_o more_o for_o we_o do_v not_o so_o much_o want_v their_o authority_n as_o their_o judgement_n in_o this_o point_n it_o be_v a_o very_a dare_a thing_n to_o oppose_v the_o universal_a consent_n of_o the_o whole_a christian_a church_n and_o no_o private_a bishop_n nor_o national_a combination_n of_o bishop_n will_v be_v able_a to_o bear_v up_o against_o such_o a_o prejudice_n but_o when_o we_o have_v the_o concurrent_a opinion_n of_o the_o great_a number_n of_o christian_a bishop_n we_o need_v not_o much_o concern_v ourselves_o for_o want_n of_o the_o formality_n of_o a_o western_a council_n who_o be_v interest_v party_n yes_o you_o will_v say_v at_o least_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o
western_a patriarch_n and_o therefore_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v innovate_v without_o the_o patriarchal_a authority_n and_o a_o patriarchal_a council_n nor_o to_o have_v reject_v the_o patriarchal_a

take_v no_o notice_n of_o the_o patriarchal_a authority_n but_o the_o universal_a headship_n and_o supremacy_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n as_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o article_n of_o our_o church_n in_o which_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v such_o a_o usurpation_n as_o may_v be_v renounce_v without_o the_o authority_n of_o any_o council_n as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v indeed_o his_o patriarchal_a authority_n if_o he_o have_v any_o necessary_o fall_v with_o it_o for_o when_o he_o challenge_v such_o a_o exorbitant_a power_n so_o far_o exceed_v the_o

not_o be_v confine_v to_o a_o mere_a patriarchal_a jurisdiction_n we_o must_v necessary_o renounce_v all_o subjection_n to_o he_o to_o deliver_v ourselves_o from_o his_o usurpation_n when_o his_o

observe_v for_o the_o right_n state_v of_o this_o dispute_n about_o schism_n viz._n the_o difference_n between_o schism_n from_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o the_o breach_n of_o ecclesiastical_a

and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v nothing_o less_o than_o a_o separation_n from_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n in_o thing_n essential_a to_o faith_n or_o worship_n or_o government_n for_o

ecclesiastical_a communion_n be_v the_o union_n of_o several_a distinct_a church_n into_o one_o ecclesiastical_a body_n for_o mutual_a advice_n and_o counsel_n and_o the_o more_o pure_a
