but_o to_o raise_v rebellion_n against_o a_o prince_n whenever_o he_o and_o they_o happen_v to_o be_v of_o different_a religion_n but_o that_o which_o i_o bring_v this_o for_o be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o pope_n depose_v power_n do_v carry_v along_o with_o it_o that_o mischievous_a principle_n to_o government_n of_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o resist_a authority_n on_o the_o account_n of_o religion_n and_o from_o this_o discourse_n i_o infer_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o real_a security_n give_v to_o the_o government_n without_o renounce_v this_o depose_v power_n in_o the_o pope_n but_o that_o which_o be_v the_o present_a pretence_n among_o they_o be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o this_o they_o stick_v at_o but_o the_o quarrel_n they_o have_v at_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n as_o it_o be_v now_o frame_v i_o shall_v therefore_o proceed_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n viz._n ii_o that_o if_o they_o do_v renounce_v the_o pope_n depose_v power_n in_o good_a earnest_n they_o have_v no_o

the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o oath_n may_v go_v down_o well_o enough_o the_o author_n of_o the_o first_o treatise_n be_v so_o ingenuous_a 1._o as_o to_o make_v the_o follow_a proposition_n the_o whole_a foundation_n of_o his_o discourse_n viz._n that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o take_v any_o oath_n or_o protestation_n renounce_v the_o pope_n power_n in_o any_o case_n whatsoever_o to_o depose_v a_o christian_a prince_n or_o absolve_v his_o subject_n from_o their_o allegiance_n and_o in_o my_o mind_n he_o give_v a_o very_a substantial_a reason_n for_o it_o because_o the_o hold_v

how_o say_v you_o by_o all_o the_o way_n we_o can_v prove_v any_o doctrine_n catholic_n pope_n have_v teach_v it_o from_o scripture_n and_o tradition_n and_o condemn_v the_o contrary_a as_o
