the_o reporter_n credit_n unless_o he_o be_v confident_a withal_o that_o he_o who_o report_v this_o will_v not_o report_v a_o untruth_n and_o that_o he_o dare_v trust_v he_o in_o any_o thing_n but_o france_n now_o do_v not_o believe_v the_o council_n of_o trent_n in_o all_o thing_n for_o our_o adversary_n himself_o confess_v that_o it_o refuse_v the_o decree_n of_o the_o council_n which_o touch_v upon_o reformation_n whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o though_o france_n do_v agree_v in_o opinion_n with_o the_o council_n in_o what_o it_o decree_v concern_v matter_n of_o faith_n yet_o do_v it_o not_o hold_v this_o opinion_n for_o any_o regard_n to_o the_o counsel_n authority_n but_o for_o some_o other_o respect_n else_o may_v he_o conclude_v as_o well_o that_o the_o huguenot_n do_v receive_v the_o say_a council_n for_o that_o they_o believe_v diverse_a article_n of_o it_o which_o be_v against_o the_o anabaptist_n and_o other_o heretic_n of_o our_o time_n for_o even_o as_o they_o refuse_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o say_a council_n in_o that_o very_o same_o part_n whereof_o they_o receive_v the_o article_n so_o may_v we_o as_o well_o refuse_v the_o whole_a council_n and_o yet_o

whole_a to_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o whole_a but_o let_v we_o now_o mark_v how_o he_o conclude_v that_o this_o council_n be_v receive_v in_o france_n our_o adversary_n own_o self_n confess_v say_v he_o that_o this_o council_n be_v receive_v by_o the_o bishop_n but_o what_o man_n can_v persuade_v himself_o that_o the_o bishop_n have_v another_o faith_n and_o religion_n from_o that_o profess_a by_o the_o king_n and_o all_o the_o catholic_a people_n for_o how_o may_v the_o king_n be_v style_v the_o most_o christian_a if_o he_o be_v of_o a_o faith_n singular_a from_o the_o bishop_n and_o how_o shall_v the_o people_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n flock_n unless_o they_o acknowledge_v some_o pastor_n see_v then_o this_o in_o brief_a be_v his_o argument_n the_o bishop_n have_v receive_v the_o council_n the_o king_n and_o the_o people_n have_v believe_v the_o bishop_n ergo_fw-la the_o council_n have_v be_v receive_v by_o the_o king_n the_o bishop_n the_o clergy_n and_o likewise_o of_o all_o the_o people_n of_o france_n i_o have_v show_v already_o how_o he_o have_v not_o make_v it_o good_a as_o yet_o that_o the_o bishop_n which_o then_o be_v have_v receive_v it_o and_o for_o the_o bishop_n and_o clergy_n at_o this_o day_n though_o diverse_a of_o they_o for_o the_o advancement_n of_o the_o holy_a league_n have_v endeavour_v to_o cause_v the_o say_a council_n to_o be_v receive_v yet_o may_v the_o king_n and_o the_o people_n refuse_v it_o notwithstanding_o and_o yet_o not_o cease_v for_o all_o that_o to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o faith_n with_o they_o in_o so_o much_o as_o the_o approbation_n of_o that_o council_n be_v not_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n for_o the_o council_n of_o ephesus_n have_v express_o prohibit_v we_o the_o addition_n of_o any_o other_o article_n of_o faith_n unto_o those_o which_o be_v then_o receive_v in_o which_o number_n the_o receive_n of_o the_o tridentine_a council_n be_v not_o but_o suppose_v that_o they_o be_v not_o of_o the_o same_o faith_n what_o danger_n can_v come_v of_o it_o the_o king_n say_v he_o shall_v not_o then_o be_v most_o christian_a nor_o the_o people_n christ_n his_o flock_n first_o as_o for_o the_o king_n for_o as_o much_o as_o this_o reason_n be_v draw_v from_o his_o title_n i_o say_v that_o if_o the_o king_n be_v the_o great_a heretic_n in_o the_o world_n yet_o shall_v he_o not_o be_v deprive_v of_o his_o title_n henry_n the_o eight_o king_n of_o england_n receive_v the_o title_n of_o defender_n of_o the_o faith_n from_o pope_n leo_fw-la the_o ten_o for_o write_v against_o luther_n king_n edward_n the_o six_o and_o the_o last_o queen_n of_o famous_a memory_n and_o the_o now_o reign_v king_n who_o have_v change_v the_o religion_n for_o defend_v of_o which_o king_n henry_n receive_v this_o title_n do_v still_o keep_v the_o same_o style_n and_o by_o very_o good_a right_n too_o for_o title_n though_o personal_a and_o proper_a only_o to_o the_o first_o of_o the_o race_n that_o receive_v they_o as_o catholic_a to_o ferdinando_n king_n of_o arragon_n defender_n of_o the_o faith_n to_o henry_n the_o eight_o king_n of_o england_n yet_o do_v they_o descend_v unto_o their_o successor_n as_o ornament_n only_o annex_v to_o their_o state_n so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o philip_n of_o austria_n who_o be_v catholic_a in_o that_o sense_n but_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n for_o if_o we_o consider_v of_o king_n only_o in_o point_n of_o religion_n the_o king_n of_o france_n may_v be_v as_o good_a a_o catholic_a as_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n and_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n as_o good_a a_o christian_a as_o the_o king_n of_o france_n and_o yet_o the_o title_n of_o christian_a belong_v only_o unto_o the_o one_o and_o the_o title_n of_o catholic_a to_o the_o other_o but_o above_o all_o be_v this_o reason_n ill_o apply_v against_o the_o king_n of_o france_n for_o that_o christian_a be_v not_o a_o title_n to_o distinguish_v one_o christian_a from_o another_o but_o to_o distinguish_v they_o all_o from_o pagan_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n be_v it_o give_v to_o the_o king_n of_o france_n as_o to_z the_o first_o king_n of_o europe_n that_o abolish_v paganism_n and_o who_o still_o have_v the_o most_o war_n of_o all_o with_o the_o saracen_n enemy_n of_o the_o name_n of_o christ._n true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o title_n may_v incline_v he_o the_o more_o to_o embrace_v that_o doctrine_n which_o be_v best_a but_o for_o that_o it_o have_v not_o be_v hitherto_o agree_v upon_o which_o of_o the_o two_o be_v the_o best_a we_o must_v not_o prove_v one_o doubt_n by_o another_o for_o the_o huguenot_n may_v as_o well_o convert_v this_o reason_n to_o persuade_v the_o king_n to_o reform_v the_o church_n as_o the_o catholic_n use_v it_o to_o incline_v he_o to_o maintain_v the_o romish_a religion_n howbeit_o there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n that_o the_o king_n can_v do_v more_o worthy_a of_o this_o title_n of_o he_o then_o to_o do_v both_o that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o maintain_v the_o roman_a church_n and_o to_o reform_v it_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o contradiction_n in_o these_o two_o see_v there_o be_v no_o better_a mean_n to_o make_v the_o iron_n endure_v long_o then_o to_o scour_v away_o the_o rust_n nor_o to_o maintain_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n then_o to_o reform_v the_o abuse_n of_o it_o nevertheless_o to_o establish_v such_o a_o course_n that_o any_o of_o the_o iron_n be_v not_o scrape_v away_o in_o stead_n of_o the_o rust_n and_o yet_o see_v that_o it_o be_v bright_a scour_v there_o be_v no_o safe_a mean_n then_o to_o do_v quite_o contrary_a to_o that_o which_o our_o aduersay_n advise_v viz._n to_o let_v their_o council_n of_o trent_n sleep_n and_o to_o call_v another_o wherein_o both_o part_n may_v have_v indifferent_a hear_n by_o which_o mean_n if_o so_o be_v that_o there_o be_v any_o corruption_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n it_o may_v be_v see_v into_o and_o purge_v and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o error_n in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o huguenot_n they_o may_v be_v evict_v and_o instruct_v in_o a_o better_a faith_n and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o reunite_v we_o all_o in_o one_o faith_n and_o this_o will_v be_v a_o act_n indeed_o well_o worthy_a a_o most_o christian_n king_n 3_o but_o descend_v we_o now_o to_o the_o people_n how_o shall_v they_o say_v he_o be_v the_o sheep_n of_o christ_n flock_n if_o so_o be_v they_o acknowledge_v not_o any_o pastor_n i_o answer_v that_o they_o may_v well_o enough_o acknowledge_v their_o pastor_n though_o they_o believe_v not_o just_a as_o the_o pastor_n of_o their_o country_n do_v for_o that_o no_o man_n be_v oblige_v to_o build_v his_o faith_n but_o upon_o a_o infallible_a foundation_n and_o it_o be_v confess_v by_o the_o catholic_n themselves_o that_o all_o the_o bishop_n in_o a_o whole_a country_n may_v err_v in_o point_n of_o faith_n so_o that_o the_o people_n be_v not_o always_o oblige_v to_o ground_v their_o faith_n upon_o that_o of_o their_o bishop_n and_o consequent_o may_v be_v of_o another_o faith_n and_o yet_o be_v of_o the_o flock_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o in_o very_a troth_n our_o saviour_n do_v not_o call_v they_o his_o sheep_n which_o hear_v the_o bishop_n but_o those_o that_o hear_v his_o voice_n which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n let_v we_o now_o look_v upon_o his_o conclusion_n and_o so_o say_v he_o be_v the_o
