have_v their_o jurisdiction_n from_o the_o sovereign_n of_o the_o place_n wherein_o they_o exercise_v the_o same_o and_o as_o for_o that_o cause_n they_o have_v not_o their_o authority_n de_fw-fr

without_o his_o own_o territory_n have_v not_o any_o temporal_a jurisdiction_n direct_o these_o three_o conclusion_n be_v easy_o grant_v the_o four_o be_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v in_o the_o

prove_v this_o doctrine_n it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o lay_v open_a the_o consequence_n of_o it_o that_o prince_n and_o state_n that_o have_v the_o civil_a sovereignty_n in_o their_o several_a

to_o understand_v he_o do_v not_o challenge_v it_o as_o other_o civil_a sovereign_n do_v from_o the_o original_a submission_n thereto_o of_o those_o that_o be_v to_o be_v govern_v for_o it_o be_v

of_o those_o that_o be_v to_o be_v govern_v whether_o they_o that_o choose_v he_o do_v it_o for_o their_o common_a defence_n against_o a_o enemy_n as_o when_o they_o agree_v among_o themselves_o to_o

therefore_o when_o he_o disclaim_v the_o supreme_a civil_a power_n over_o other_o state_n direct_o deny_v no_o more_o but_o that_o his_o right_n come_v to_o he_o by_o that_o way_n he_o cease_v not_o

depose_v prince_n and_o state_n as_o often_o as_o it_o be_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o soul_n that_o be_v as_o often_o as_o he_o will_v for_o he_o claim_v also_o the_o sole_a power_n to_o judge_n
