who_o fulfil_v the_o design_n of_o the_o imposer_n in_o own_v such_o man_n for_o saint_n can_v rational_o avoid_v the_o own_n of_o their_o principle_n and_o if_o the_o do_v these_o thing_n oblige_v any_o to_o own_o these_o principle_n it_o have_v the_o same_o force_n throughout_o their_o whole_a diffusive_a church_n it_o be_v not_o so_o easy_a to_o answer_v the_o force_n of_o these_o argument_n as_o it_o be_v to_o produce_v instance_n on_o the_o contrary_a of_o they_o that_o have_v write_v against_o this_o doctrine_n especial_o in_o france_n where_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v disow_v by_o a_o national_a church_n but_o their_o write_n and_o her_o declaration_n will_v stand_v we_o in_o no_o stead_n upon_o their_o principle_n who_o express_o except_o the_o case_n of_o heresy_n as_o cardinal_n perron_n say_v they_o all_o do_v and_o instance_n in_o the_o most_o eminent_a of_o they_o who_o defend_v the_o right_n of_o prince_n against_o pope_n before_o the_o reformation_n for_o i_o think_v it_o will_v not_o be_v doubt_v that_o all_o the_o writer_n of_o that_o communion_n even_o those_o of_o the_o gallican_n church_n not_o except_v look_v upon_o we_o as_o heretic_n but_o beside_o the_o french_a church_n have_v be_v so_o far_o from_o disow_v this_o doctrine_n that_o they_o have_v public_o declare_v for_o it_o and_o that_o no_o long_o since_o than_o in_o our_o father_n day_n it_o can_v yet_o be_v forget_v how_o the_o body_n of_o their_o clergy_n as_o represent_v the_o gallican_n church_n by_o the_o mouth_n of_o their_o speaker_n cardinal_n perron_n declare_v themselves_o in_o that_o famous_a harangue_n which_o be_v print_v there_o with_o royal_a privilege_n and_o send_v over_o hither_o to_o king_n 383._o james_n that_o he_o may_v not_o be_v ignorant_a of_o their_o sense_n in_o this_o matter_n and_o they_o declare_v it_o not_o only_o to_o be_v the_o present_a sense_n of_o their_o church_n but_o the_o same_o that_o it_o have_v constant_o be_v from_o the_o first_o open_v of_o her_o divinity_n school_n till_o calvin_n time_n they_o show_v too_o much_o desire_v to_o have_v the_o french_a church_n on_o their_o side_n that_o confront_v these_o great_a testimony_n with_o act_n of_o state_n or_o declaration_n of_o university_n or_o with_o write_n of_o private_a man_n when_o they_o can_v but_o know_v that_o according_a to_o their_o principle_n neither_o private_a man_n nor_o parliament_n nor_o university_n can_v pretend_v to_o be_v the_o gallican_n church_n in_o any_o case_n where_o they_o differ_v from_o the_o ecclesiastic_o but_o whereas_o cardinal_n perron_n there_o say_v that_o all_o they_o who_o write_v for_o the_o right_n of_o prince_n against_o the_o pope_n in_o those_o time_n before_o the_o reformation_n do_v nevertheless_o hold_v that_o the_o pope_n may_v depose_v any_o prince_n that_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o heresy_n though_o i_o do_v not_o engage_v to_o make_v good_a his_o assertion_n in_o the_o utmost_a extent_n of_o it_o because_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o every_o writer_n in_o that_o controversy_n yet_o i_o think_v it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o show_v as_o many_o king_n who_o have_v declare_v their_o judgement_n on_o his_o side_n as_o there_o can_v be_v produce_v of_o those_o writer_n to_o the_o contrary_n and_o it_o be_v no_o small_a proof_n of_o the_o authority_n of_o any_o doctrine_n when_o it_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o they_o who_o will_v have_v be_v most_o oblige_v by_o their_o interest_n to_o have_v deny_v it_o if_o their_o conscience_n will_v have_v give_v they_o leave_v for_o example_n of_o this_o we_o can_v go_v high_a than_o to_o the_o emperor_n henry_n iu._n who_o be_v very_o troublesome_a time_n give_v occasion_n to_o hildebrand_n to_o bring_v this_o doctrine_n first_o into_o the_o world_n and_o it_o be_v very_o observable_a that_o in_o the_o infancy_n of_o it_o he_o that_o be_v so_o unfortunate_a to_o be_v make_v the_o first_o instance_n of_o the_o curse_a effect_n of_o this_o doctrine_n though_o he_o deny_v the_o pope_n power_n over_o he_o in_o all_o other_o respect_n yet_o he_o e._n own_v it_o in_o this_o of_o heresy_n which_o be_v worth_a all_o the_o rest_n put_v together_o perhaps_o he_o think_v it_o do_v not_o concern_v he_o at_o first_o so_o much_o as_o he_o find_v it_o do_v afterward_o for_o have_v grant_v that_o the_o pope_n may_v depose_v he_o in_o case_n of_o heresy_n it_o be_v enough_o then_o the_o pope_n know_v what_o he_o have_v to_o do_v it_o be_v only_o to_o make_v a_o new_a heresy_n of_o something_o which_o he_o will_v not_o or_o can_v not_o deny_v and_o then_o how_o easy_a be_v it_o to_o take_v away_o his_o crown_n as_o be_v forfeit_v by_o his_o own_o confession_n another_o example_n of_o this_o we_o have_v in_o the_o emperor_n frederic_n ii_o who_o being_n in_o no_o very_a good_a term_n with_o the_o pope_n think_v to_o get_v into_o favour_n by_o show_v his_o zeal_n against_o heresy_n and_o he_o show_v it_o sufficient_o by_o give_v the_o force_n of_o a_o temporal_a 10._o law_n to_o that_o canon_n of_o their_o general_n council_n of_o lateran_n by_o which_o every_o heretic_n be_v make_v to_o forfeit_v his_o estate_n as_o well_o they_o that_o have_v no_o chief_a lord_n over_o they_o as_o other_o of_o inferior_a rank_n and_o condition_n in_o consequence_n of_o this_o when_o the_o pope_n see_v occasion_n to_o take_v away_o his_o crown_n and_o want_v only_o some_o good_a colour_n for_o it_o among_o other_o crime_n with_o which_o he_o charge_v he_o this_o be_v one_o that_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o heresy_n which_o appear_v as_o the_o pope_n be_v please_v to_o say_v by_o no_o doubtful_a and_o light_a but_o by_o evident_a argument_n for_o that_o it_o be_v manifest_a enough_o that_o he_o have_v run_v into_o many_o perjury_n these_o be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o a._n sentence_n by_o which_o also_o it_o sufficient_o appear_v that_o not_o only_a error_n in_o doctrine_n but_o even_o vice_n or_o misgovernment_n may_v suffice_v to_o make_v a_o heretic_n when_o a_o prince_n be_v so_o will_v forfeit_v his_o crown_n to_o the_o pope_n but_o as_o humane_a nature_n be_v and_o in_o a_o fortune_n so_o liable_a to_o temptation_n how_o hard_o a_o thing_n it_o be_v for_o any_o prince_n to_o escape_v this_o charge_n while_o the_o pope_n be_v allow_v to_o be_v judge_n as_o well_o who_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o fact_n as_o what_o fact_n shall_v amount_v to_o a_o heresy_n for_o he_o may_v as_o groundless_o judge_v one_o guilty_a of_o perjury_n as_o he_o do_v in_o that_o instance_n judge_v that_o guilt_n to_o be_v heresy_n and_o yet_o both_o these_o judgement_n so_o inseparable_o belong_v to_o the_o same_o jurisdiction_n that_o they_o who_o grant_v he_o either_o of_o they_o ought_v in_o reason_n to_o grant_v he_o both_o as_o we_o have_v show_v they_o do_v according_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o whereas_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o some_o national_a council_n have_v declare_v for_o the_o independent_a right_n of_o king_n though_o none_o ever_o do_v so_o but_o they_o be_v conciliabula_fw-la brand_v for_o it_o at_o least_o in_o all_o the_o late_a edition_n of_o the_o council_n yet_o of_o these_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o they_o never_o suppose_v the_o case_n of_o heresy_n in_o which_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n to_o doubt_v that_o they_o go_v with_o the_o stream_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n it_o be_v more_o observable_a that_o bate_v that_o case_n the_o right_n of_o prince_n against_o the_o pope_n be_v scarce_o ever_o maintain_v by_o any_o council_n of_o any_o nation_n or_o province_n but_o those_o who_o be_v under_o the_o awe_o of_o prince_n and_o even_o of_o they_o very_o many_o have_v recant_v as_o soon_o as_o they_o find_v themselves_o at_o liberty_n to_o do_v it_o and_o that_o conscientious_o as_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o most_o conscientious_a person_n of_o that_o communion_n have_v stand_v their_o ground_n in_o the_o most_o disadvantageous_a circumstance_n they_o have_v stick_v to_o it_o and_o maintain_v it_o and_o never_o recant_v their_o doctrine_n howsoever_o they_o may_v have_v some_o remorse_n at_o some_o of_o those_o horrid_a practice_n into_o which_o they_o be_v lead_v by_o it_o now_o by_o the_o principle_n of_o that_o communion_n whatsoever_o have_v be_v the_o sense_n of_o their_o church_n can_v never_o cease_v to_o be_v so_o on_o further_a trial_n but_o must_v be_v the_o church_n doctrine_n for_o ever_o they_o who_o defend_v infallibility_n of_o judgement_n can_v avoid_v this_o nor_o they_o who_o hold_v infallibility_n of_o tradition_n since_o they_o teach_v that_o whatsoever_o have_v once_o prevail_v and_o that_o
