oath_n that_o do_v any_o way_n appertain_v to_o the_o civil_a and_o temporal_a obedience_n due_a to_o his_o majesty_n who_o he_o acknowledge_v for_o his_o true_a and_o lawful_a king_n and_o

and_o ecclesiastical_a but_o only_o in_o temporal_a and_o civil_a cause_n 3._o second_o it_o be_v also_o evident_a that_o albeit_o by_o force_n of_o the_o express_a word_n and_o the_o plain_a and_o common_a understanding_n of_o the_o same_o to_o which_o the_o seven_o branch_n of_o this_o oath_n ty_v the_o swearer_n we_o be_v bind_v only_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o king_n james_n be_v lawful_a

that_o those_o word_n sovereign_a lord_n be_v put_v only_o ex_fw-la parte_fw-la subiecti_fw-la and_o not_o ex_fw-la parte_fw-la predicati_fw-la and_o therefore_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o word_n be_v

the_o same_o sense_n which_o the_o word_n lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n have_v see_v that_o one_o may_v be_v a_o lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n and_o yet_o not_o the_o sovereign_a lord_n of_o his_o kingdom_n as_o if_o the_o emperor_n shall_v make_v the_o great_a duke_n of_o toscan_n king_n of_o hetruria_n he_o will_v be_v lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n of_o that_o country_n and_o yet_o not_o the_o sovereign_n or_o supreme_a lord_n of_o the_o same_o because_o he_o be_v as_o a_o feudarie_n subject_a to_o the_o emperor_n nevertheless_o because_o the_o lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n of_o england_n be_v also_o the_o sovereign_a lord_n of_o the_o same_o by_o reason_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o matter_n we_o may_v lawful_o and_o if_o it_o be_v demand_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v bind_v to_o acknowledge_v and_o swear_v that_o king_n james_n be_v not_o only_o the_o lawful_a and_o rightful_a king_n of_o england_n &_o of_o all_o other_o his_o majesty_n dominion_n but_o also_o the_o sovereign_n or_o supreme_a lord_n of_o the_o same_o and_o in_o this_o sense_n both_o the_o xiii_o priest_n and_o also_o m._n greene_n understand_v the_o word_n sovereign_a in_o their_o protestation_n and_o declaration_n 4._o neither_o be_v it_o to_o the_o purpose_n which_o some_o object_n that_o the_o king_n of_o england_n be_v the_o pope_n vassal_n and_o as_o a_o feudarie_n subject_a to_o he_o in_o temporal_n and_o therefore_o the_o pope_n and_o not_o king_n james_n be_v the_o absolute_a sovereign_n and_o supreme_a lord_n in_o temporal_n of_o this_o kingdom_n for_o although_o we_o shall_v absurd_o admit_v that_o for_o the_o title_n and_o claim_n of_o temporal_a sovereignty_n which_o the_o pope_n pretend_v to_o have_v over_o this_o kingdom_n by_o vettue_n of_o some_o grant_n of_o former_a king_n may_v be_v bring_v some_o probable_a proof_n as_o there_o can_v see_v that_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o no_o king_n of_o england_n have_v authority_n to_o give_v away_o his_o kingdom_n or_o make_v it_o subject_a in_o temporal_n to_o another_o prince_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o kingdom_n itself_o and_o that_o no_o colour_n of_o any_o probable_a proof_n can_v be_v bring_v from_o any_o authentical_a instrument_n to_o show_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n ever_o consent_v to_o any_o such_o grant_n yet_o consider_v that_o no_o probable_a title_n can_v be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o deprive_v any_o man_n of_o that_o right_n dominion_n or_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o he_o actual_o possess_v but_o such_o a_o title_n must_v be_v most_o certain_a and_o out_o of_o all_o controversy_n as_o i_o show_v above_o in_o the_o five_o observation_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o notwithstanding_o any_o such_o probable_a title_n every_o subject_n of_o this_o

that_o it_o be_v true_o probable_a that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o authority_n to_o deprive_v prince_n or_o to_o dispose_v of_o their_o temporal_n it_o be_v as_o clear_v and_o manifest_a that_o any_o
