no_o doubt_n be_v great_a 46._o if_o it_o be_v true_a in_o such_o a_o man_n as_o cardinal_n bellarmine_n be_v that_o he_o have_v mistake_v the_o whole_a state_n of_o the_o question_n in_o his_o

in_o the_o same_o cause_n all_o which_o be_v most_o evident_a by_o the_o statute_n make_v about_o the_o same_o from_o the_o 25_o year_n of_o king_n henry_n the_o 8._o unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o

his_o m._n tie_v not_o permit_v he_o to_o inherit_v the_o title_n either_o of_o king_n edward_n or_o king_n henry_n which_o mislike_v not_o we_o at_o all_o for_o that_o so_o far_o they_o may_v pass_v

both_o ecclesiastical_a and_o temporal_a in_o temporal_a matter_n except_v only_o spiritual_a wherein_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v a_o little_a before_o s._n ambrose_n tell_v the_o christian_a emperor_n

instead_o of_o this_o late_a call_v of_o allegiance_n &_o of_o give_v the_o child_n a_o wrong_a name_n as_o he_o say_v i_o see_v not_o by_o what_o least_o colour_n or_o show_v of_o reason_n it_o may_v

which_o by_o his_o letter_n he_o refute_v i_o mean_v of_o lawful_a 37._o and_o unlawful_a clause_n which_o must_v needs_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o second_o oath_n he_o adjoin_v present_o the_o confutation_n of_o those_o modification_n say_v for_o you_o know_v that_o those_o kind_n of_o modification_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o sleight_n &_o subtilitye_n of_o satan_n that_o the_o catholic_a faith_n touch_v the_o primacy_n of_o the_o sea_n apostolic_a may_v either_o secret_o or_o open_o be_v shoot_v at_o lo_o here_o he_o mention_v both_o the_o oath_n the_o one_o which_o shoot_v secret_o

he_o name_v the_o second_o in_o the_o first_o place_n so_o do_v he_o principal_o prosecute_v the_o same_o &_o prove_v the_o unlawfulness_n thereof_o mention_v the_o other_o but_o only_o as_o by_o the_o way_n for_o that_o it_o be_v as_o totum_fw-la ad_fw-la parten_n to_o the_o former_a as_o a_o man_n can_v hardly_o speak_v of_o particular_a member_n of_o a_o body_n without_o name_v also_o the_o

come_v to_o the_o contradiction_n of_o cardinal_n bellarmyne_n whereof_o the_o apologer_n take_v occasion_n to_o treat_v for_o that_o the_o cardinal_n affirm_v in_o one_o part_n of_o his_o letter_n that_o neither_o his_o majesty_n of_o england_n nor_o any_o prince_n else_o have_v cause_n to_o fear_v violence_n from_o the_o pope_n for_o that_o it_o be_v never_o hear_v of_o from_o the_o church_n

allow_v the_o murder_n when_o it_o be_v do_v by_o a_o other_o 16._o which_o assertion_n the_o apologer_n to_o improve_v bring_v in_o example_n first_o of_o doctrine_n that_o bellarmyne_n himself_o do_v hold_v that_o prince_n upon_o just_a cause_n may_v be_v depose_v by_o pope_n and_o then_o of_o fact_n that_o diverse_a emperor_n have_v be_v depose_v and_o great_a war_n raise_v against_o they_o by_o pope_n as_o bellarmyne_n in_o his_o work_n do_v confess_v and_o can_v deny_v and_o consequent_o do_v contradict_v himself_o but_o sure_o this_o seem_v to_o i_o a_o very_a simple_a opposition_n or_o contradiction_n for_o who_o do_v not_o see_v that_o these_o thing_n may_v well_o stand_v together_o be_v not_o opposite_a and_o may_v be_v both_o true_a that_o pope_n upon_o just_a cause_n have_v wage_v war_n against_o diverse_a prince_n and_o potentate_n and_o yet_o never_o cause_v any_o to_o be_v unlawful_o make_v away_o murder_v or_o allow_v of_o their_o murder_n commit_v by_o other_o for_o may_v not_o we_o say_v just_o that_o warlike_a prince_n be_v no_o murderer_n though_o in_o the_o act_n of_o war_n themselves_o many_o have_v be_v slay_v by_o their_o authority_n and_o commandment_n or_o may_v not_o we_o deliver_v our_o judge_n of_o england_n from_o the_o crime_n of_o murder_n though_o many_o man_n death_n have_v proceed_v from_o they_o by_o way_n of_o justice_n no_o man_n i_o
