upon_o or_o out_o of_o they_o for_o it_o say_v his_o lordship_n word_n argue_v he_o to_o assume_v etc._n etc._n which_o plain_o show_v that_o they_o do_v not_o charge_v his_o lordship_n with_o say_v

a_o addition_n as_o every_o body_n know_v second_o if_o the_o divine_a will_v have_v answer_v and_o not_o cavel_v he_o shall_v have_v show_v the_o conclusion_n not_o to_o be_v well_o &_o true_o deduce_v out_o of_o his_o lordship_n antecedent_n &_o then_o he_o have_v say_v somewhat_o to_o the_o purpose_n but_o that_o he_o can_v do_v for_o if_o my_o l._n bishop_n out_o of_o the_o inscription_n ordinario_fw-la angliae_fw-la do_v prove_v himself_o ordinary_a &_o out_o of_o this_o infer_v himself_o to_o have_v authority_n over_o lay_n catholik_o of_o england_n why_o may_v he_o not_o do_v the_o like_a of_o the_o word_n ordinario_fw-la scotiae_fw-la which_o title_n his_o lordship_n use_v continual_o and_o joint_o with_o the_o word_n angliae_fw-la thus_o ordinarius_fw-la angliae_fw-la &_o

he_o may_v do_v it_o over_o the_o other_o for_o the_o other_o addition_n as_o this_o divine_a say_v or_o inference_n as_o in_o truth_n it_o be_v of_o assume_v the_o same_o authority_n which_o

this_o the_o divine_a according_a to_o his_o former_a manner_n of_o speech_n call_v a_o addition_n to_o his_o lordship_n word_n who_o he_o say_v say_v nothing_o of_o temporal_a fortune_n nor_o authority_n of_o temporal_a prince_n as_o for_o the_o word_n addition_n it_o suit_v yet_o far_o less_o in_o this_o place_n than_o before_o true_a it_o be_v the_o bishop_n do_v not_o speak_v of_o

perhaps_o do_v not_o so_o serious_o reflect_v upon_o as_o a_o thing_n that_o may_v hinder_v the_o extent_n of_o his_o power_n yet_o layman_n who_o it_o concern_v can_v not_o but_o look_v about_o

for_o the_o most_o part_n mistate_v for_o the_o controversy_n be_v of_o the_o authority_n of_o ordinary_a as_o ordinary_a how_o it_o may_v stand_v with_o the_o safety_n of_o catholic_n in_o these_o time_n and_o under_o these_o law_n the_o writer_n fly_v from_o it_o to_o episcopal_a authority_n in_o general_a obedience_n to_o lawful_a pastor_n government_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o like_a whereof_o no_o man_n make_v any_o doubt_n or_o if_o he_o happen_v a_o little_a to_o touch_v the_o point_n he_o do_v but_o touch_v it_o and_o so_o slender_o that_o any_o man_n may_v see_v he_o have_v not_o much_o confidence_n in_o his_o cause_n but_o seek_v rather_o to_o carry_v it_o by_o the_o title_n than_o reason_n of_o a_o divine_a wherefore_o find_v myself_o every_o way_n deceive_v of_o my_o

many_o that_o look_v not_o far_o into_o thing_n and_o the_o wrong_n that_o it_o may_v do_v to_o those_o three_o worthy_a person_n and_o zealous_a catholic_n in_o particular_a against_o who_o this_o

the_o silence_n of_o the_o one_o side_n seem_v to_o have_v make_v the_o other_o take_v more_o hart_n and_o to_o speak_v and_o to_o write_v more_o free_o because_o perhaps_o they_o think_v man_n will_v still_o be_v as_o temperate_a of_o their_o pen_n as_o they_o have_v be_v and_o be_v still_o of_o their_o tongue_n but_o they_o must_v think_v that_o this_o extreme_a heat_n of_o writing_n will_v

i_o endeavour_v in_o so_o many_o section_n to_o show_v all_o the_o contrary_a the_o anwsere_fw-la to_o the_o judgement_n of_o a_o divine_a upon_o the_o three_o gentleman_n letter_n to_o my_o lord_n

first_o place_n i_o can_v omit_v to_o note_v two_o thing_n in_o it_o the_o one_o be_v the_o word_n judgement_n which_o do_v sound_a somewhat_o authoritative_o insinuate_a as_o if_o the_o writer_n be_v a_o judge_n or_o superior_a for_o to_o such_o only_a it_o proper_o belong_v to_o give_v judgement_n whereby_o though_o perhaps_o he_o will_v gain_v himself_o and_o his_o write_a credit_n so_o to_o further_a my_o lord_n bishop_n cause_n which_o he_o handle_v yet_o he_o be_v best_o to_o look_v he_o do_v he_o not_o more_o harm_n for_o by_o make_v himself_o a_o man_n of_o such_o authority_n he_o may_v make_v it_o to_o be_v think_v that_o he_o be_v my_o lord_n bishop_n himself_o or_o some_o one_o of_o his_o officer_n but_o only_o that_o man_n presume_v more_o of_o the_o discretion_n of_o such_o officer_n and_o much_o more_o of_o my_o lord_n bishop_n himself_o them_z that_o they_o will_v write_v or_o ever_o suffer_v such_o a_o thing_n to_o be_v write_v with_o their_o privity_n wherefore_o though_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o give_v judgement_n yet_o i_o will_v take_v he_o not_o to_o be_v a_o man_n of_o judgement_n i_o mean_v that_o have_v any_o further_a authority_n than_o his_o knowledge_n of_o divinity_n will_v afford_v he_o and_o so_o i_o shall_v in_o this_o answer_n speak_v to_o he_o as_o to_o a_o divine_a not_o as_o a_o judge_n the_o other_o thing_n of_o the_o title_n be_v that_o he_o call_v the_o letter_n of_o the_o lay_v catholic_n the_o letter_n of_o the_o 3._o gentleman_n who_o undertake_v the_o delivery_n of_o it_o whereas_o it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o most_o catholic_n of_o worth_n in_o and_o about_o london_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o delivery_n of_o it_o be_v privy_a to_o it_o and_o that_o these_o 3._o be_v but_o choose_v out_o of_o a_o
