solemnize_v in_o the_o church_n in_o cause_n testamentary_a because_o testament_n be_v many_o time_n make_v in_o extremis_fw-la when_o churchman_n be_v present_a and_o therefore_o they_o be_v think_v the_o fit_a person_n to_o take_v the_o probate_n of_o such_o testament_n howbeit_o these_o bishop_n do_v not_o proceed_v in_o these_o cause_n according_a to_o the_o canon_n and_o decree_n of_o the_o church_n for_o the_o canon_n law_n be_v not_o then_o hatch_v or_o dream_v of_o but_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o imperial_a law_n as_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n do_v proceed_v in_o other_o cause_n neither_o do_v the_o emperor_n in_o give_v this_o jurisdiction_n unto_o they_o give_v away_o their_o own_o supreme_a and_o absolute_a power_n to_o correct_v and_o punish_v the_o judge_n as_o well_o as_o other_o if_o they_o perform_v not_o their_o several_a duty_n this_o then_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o the_o primitive_a jurisdiction_n in_o all_o these_o cause_n be_v in_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o so_o in_o right_n it_o remain_v at_o this_o day_n and_o though_o it_o be_v derive_v from_o he_o it_o remain_v in_o he_o as_o a_o fountain_n for_o every_o christian_a

and_o all_o manner_n of_o force_n and_o fraud_n but_o also_o incest_n adultery_n perjury_n usury_n simony_n sorcery_n idolatry_n blasphemy_n neither_o be_v these_o cause_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o own_o quality_n or_o nature_n to_o be_v distinguish_v one_o from_o another_o by_o the_o name_n of_o spiritual_a or_o temporal_a for_o why_o be_v adultery_n a_o spiritual_a cause_n rather_o than_o murder_n when_o they_o be_v both_o offence_n against_o the_o second_o table_n or_o idolatry_n rather_o than_o perjury_n be_v both_o offence_n against_o the_o first_o table_n and_o true_o they_o be_v not_o so_o call_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o cause_n but_o from_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o person_n viz._n the_o clergy_n be_v man_n intend_v to_o live_v secundum_fw-la spiritum_fw-la who_o the_o prince_n make_v his_o subordinate_a judge_n in_o these_o cause_n and_o this_o distinction_n of_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a cause_n begin_v first_o in_o the_o church_n of_o nota._n nota._n rome_n where_o the_o clergy_n have_v by_o this_o jurisdiction_n get_v great_a wealth_n their_o wealth_n beget_v pride_n their_o pride_n ingratitude_n towards_o prince_n who_o first_o give_v they_o their_o jurisdiction_n and_o then_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o all_o ungrateful_a person_n they_o go_v about_o to_o extinguish_v the_o memory_n of_o the_o benefit_n for_o whereas_o their_o jurisdiction_n be_v first_o derive_v from_o caesar_n in_o the_o execution_n where_o of_o they_o be_v caesar_n judge_n so_o as_o both_o their_o court_n and_o cause_n ought_v still_o to_o have_v bear_v caesar_n image_n and_o superscription_n as_o belong_v unto_o caesar_n they_o blot_v cae●ars_n name_n out_o of_o the_o style_n of_o their_o court_n and_o call_v they_o court_v christian_n as_o if_o the_o court_v hold_v by_o other_o magistrate_n have_v be_v b●t_a court_n of_o ethnic_n in_o comparison_n and_o the_o cause_n which_o be_v mere_o civil_a in_o their_o nature_n they_o call_v spiritual_a or_o ecclesiastical_a so_o as_o if_o the_o emperor_n shall_v again_o challenge_v their_o court_n and_o cause_n and_o say_v reddite_fw-la caesari_n qua_fw-la sunt_fw-la caesaris_fw-la they_o will_v

in_o matrimonial_a cause_n to_o be_v most_o sweet_a and_o gainful_a of_o all_o other_o for_o of_o matrimoney_n they_o make_v matter_n of_o money_n indeed_o to_o the_o end_n that_o caesar_n may_v never_o resume_v so_o rich_a a_o perquisite_a of_o their_o spiritual_a jurisdiction_n they_o reduce_v it_o into_o the_o number_n of_o the_o seven_o sacrament_n after_o which_o time_n it_o have_v be_v

i_o think_v i_o have_v say_v enough_o now_o to_o draw_v to_o conclusion_n church_n they_o exempt_v not_o only_o the_o clergy_n but_o all_o the_o brotherhood_n not_o only_o in_o criminal_a case_n but_o in_o civil_a also_o until_o be_v be_v cast_v out_o of_o the_o society_n or_o brotherhood_n thus_o you_o see_v they_o exceed_v the_o romish_a church_n indeed_o as_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v this_o
