be_v true_a but_o to_o this_o the_o defendant_n of_o the_o affirmative_a part_n answer_v four_o thing_n the_o first_o that_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o emperor_n gratian_n his_o elder_a brother_n and_o as_o it_o be_v father_n and_o tutor_n of_o the_o emperor_n valen●●ar_n and_o slay_v by_o maximus_n the_o tyrant_n and_o the_o most_o catholic_a prince_n and_o the_o great_a friend_n of_o s._n

and_o into_o a_o desire_n of_o assist_v he_o for_o the_o revenge_a of_o that_o murder_n and_o make_v away_o of_o his_o brother_n the_o second_o be_v that_o valentinian_n be_v yet_o so_o young_a &_o the_o son_n of_o so_o catholic_a a_o father_n as_o there_o be_v not_o any_o cause_n or_o ground_n to_o despair_v of_o his_o conversion_n which_o also_o follow_v within_o a_o while_n after_o and_o that_o with_o so_o great_a a_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n as_o s._n ambrose_n celebrate_v he_o for_o one_o of_o the_o most_o religious_a emperor_n of_o his_o age_n the_o three_o that_o though_o in_o the_o begin_n the_o people_n contain_v themselves_o within_o the_o simple_a bound_n of_o petition_n &_o give_v valentinian_n to_o understand_v we_o contend_v not_o o_o emperor_n but_o we_o become_v suppliante_n unto_o you_o yet_o when_o valentinian_n have_v a_o meaning_n to_o proceed_v further_o the_o people_n hold_v their_o own_o resist_v the_o emperor_n and_o stand_v so_o resolute_a in_o the_o matter_n as_o he_o fear_v a_o tumult_n and_o revolt_n be_v constrain_v to_o yield_v unto_o they_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o they_o think_v not_o that_o the_o commandment_n our_o saviour_n give_v to_o his_o disciple_n when_o they_o persecute_v in_o one_o city_n to_o fly_v into_o another_o be_v a_o absolute_a &_o perpetual_a precept_n but_o rather_o a_o dispensation_n &_o a_o permission_n accommodate_v to_o the_o time_n wherein_o the_o christian_a people_n either_o be_v still_o under_o pagan_a emperor_n or_o have_v not_o yet_o the_o mean_n to_o make_v resistance_n against_o persecution_n by_o might_n and_o force_n the_o four_o be_v that_o the_o emperor_n valentinian_n his_o own_o soldier_n think_v not_o themselves_o so_o bind_v in_o way_n of_o fidelity_n unto_o he_o as_o they_o believe_v they_o can_v not_o be_v dispense_v with_o when_o he_o shall_v perseoute_v the_o catholic_n for_o when_o the_o tumult_n begin_v to_o be_v hot_a they_o cause_v it_o to_o be_v signify_v unto_o he_o that_o if_o he_o will_v come_v upon_o the_o place_n he_o shall_v come_v thither_o accompany_v for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o will_v assist_v and_o help_v he_o if_o they_o see_v he_o conjoin_v and_o to_o take_v part_n with_o the_o catholic_n else_o they_o will_v put_v themselves_o in_o company_n with_o the_o troop_n that_o hold_v with_o ambrose_n but_o the_o propugner_n of_o the_o negative_a part_n recurre_v to_o the_o analogy_n of_o other_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n &_o say_v that_o for_o heresy_n the_o owner_n be_v not_o deprive_v of_o their_o good_n and_o consequent_o much_o less_o prince_n shall_v be_v spoil_v of_o their_o estate_n to_o this_o again_o the_o maynteyner_n of_o the_o affirmative_a part_n bring_v two_o answer_n the_o one_o be_v that_o in_o this_o our_o realm_n heretic_n lose_v not_o their_o good_n and_o the_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o law_n make_v against_o heretic_n be_v suspend_v for_o the_o conservation_n of_o the_o public_a peace_n and_o tranquillity_n but_o if_o there_o shall_v creep_v forth_o some_o three_o sect_n in_o france_n &_o shall_v begin_v to_o grow_v and_o be_v not_o come_v to_o be_v so_o great_a and_o to_o make_v a_o notable_a part_n of_o the_o body_n of_o estate_n as_o arianisme_n or_o nestorienisme_n it_o be_v questionless_a that_o the_o other_o two_o will_v ●udge_v they_o who_o shall_v make_v such_o profession_n worthy_a to_o be_v deprive_v not_o only_o of_o their_o good_n but_o of_o their_o life_n also_o for_o this_o be_v practise_v at_o geneva_n where_o

arian_n with_o loss_n of_o good_n and_o of_o life_n the_o other_o answer_n be_v that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o power_n that_o owner_n have_v over_o their_o good_n and_o that_o which_o prince_n have_v over_o their_o estate_n for_o good_n be_v make_v for_o their_o master_n and_o prince_n contrariwise_o for_o their_o estate_n neither_o have_v good_n any_o soul_n nor_o
