second_o chapter_n of_o this_o present_a volume_n to_o this_o let_v we_o add_v a_o most_o notable_a testimony_n of_o our_o rhemiste_n which_o be_v comprise_v in_o these_o very_a word_n 4._o notorious_a be_v the_o say_n of_o s._n augustine_n concern_v s._n cyprian_n who_o be_v a_o bless_a catholic_a bishop_n and_o martyr_n yet_o err_v about_o the_o rebaptise_v of_o such_o as_o be_v

will_v for_o his_o great_a humility_n and_o charity_n straight_a way_n have_v yield_v &_o prefer_v the_o general_a council_n before_o his_o own_o judgement_n and_o his_o fellow_n bishop_n in_o a_o

be_v a_o bless_a bishop_n and_o martyr_n and_o therefore_o will_v have_v yield_v to_o the_o decree_n of_o a_o general_a council_n they_o tell_v we_o second_o that_o s._n augustine_n be_v of_o the_o

very_o plain_o that_o neither_o the_o pope_n be_v above_o a_o general_a council_n neither_o yet_o his_o judgement_n infallible_a but_o how_o prove_v i_o that_o this_o forsooth_o be_v a_o plain_a

that_o for_o their_o great_a piety_n and_o humility_n they_o will_v humble_o have_v acknowledge_v and_o high_o reverence_v all_o power_n give_v they_o by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n yet_o true_a it_o be_v sir_n friar_n mark_v well_o my_o word_n that_o pope_n cornelius_n together_o with_o a_o national_a synod_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o italy_n have_v make_v a_o flat_a decree_n concern_v rebaptisation_n true_a it_o be_v likewise_o that_o pope_n stephanus_n have_v confirm_v the_o same_o decree_n and_o command_v it_o to_o be_v observe_v true_a it_o be_v three_o that_o all_o papist_n of_o late_a day_n do_v obstinate_o affirm_v as_o our_o rhemiste_n in_o the_o name_n of_o all_o papist_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o pope_n be_v above_o a_o general_a council_n that_o the_o pope_n can_v not_o err_v judicial_o that_o the_o pope_n judgement_n be_v infallible_a now_o this_o decree_n make_v by_o pope_n cornelius_n and_o confirm_v by_o pope_n stephanus_n s._n cyprian_n know_v right_a well_o neither_o

have_v yield_v to_o the_o decree_n of_o a_o plenary_a council_n if_o any_o such_o have_v be_v in_o his_o time_n in_o which_o word_n s._n austen_n give_v the_o reader_n to_o understand_v that_o though_o s._n cyprian_n do_v contemn_v both_o the_o definitive_a sentence_n of_o the_o pope_n and_o the_o decree_n of_o his_o provincial_a council_n because_o neither_o of_o their_o judgement_n be_v

all_o with_o one_o assent_n refuse_v utter_o to_o grant_v any_o such_o prerogative_n or_o privilege_n unto_o he_o constant_o affirm_v that_o he_o be_v bind_v as_o well_o as_o they_o to_o obey_v the_o
