judgement_n of_o constantine_n upon_o this_o appeal_v make_v to_o he_o though_o by_o donatist_n be_v not_o only_o justify_v and_o approve_v by_o s._n augustine_n but_o embrace_v also_o by_o other_o

right_a judge_n it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o commit_v the_o hear_n and_o determine_v of_o that_o cause_n unto_o miltiades_n bishop_n of_o rome_n but_o not_o to_o he_o alone_o as_o if_o he_o be_v the_o

the_o same_o commission_n the_o commission_n be_v yet_o extant_a in_o eusebius_n to_o be_v see_v in_o these_o word_n constantine_n the_o emperor_n unto_o miltiades_n bishop_n of_o rome_n 5_o euseb_n li._n 10._o c._n 5_o and_o to_o marcus_n send_v greeting_n for_o asmuch_o as_o many_o such_o epistle_n be_v bring_v unto_o i_o from_o anilinus_n lieutenant_n of_o africa_n wherein_o it_o be_v say_v that_o caecilianus_n bishop_n of_o carthage_n be_v reprehend_v in_o many_o thing_n by_o divers_a of_o his_o colleague_n abide_v in_o africa_n and_o this_o seem_v unto_o i_o very_o grievous_a that_o

of_o miltiades_n and_o his_o colleague_n declare_v it_o to_o be_v just_a if_o a_o writ_n of_o error_n be_v bring_v in_o the_o king_n bench_n of_o a_o judgement_n give_v in_o the_o common-plea_n &_o

upon_o the_o appeal_v make_v to_o the_o emperor_n when_o he_o in_o his_o own_o person_n sit_v as_o judge_v therein_o have_v power_n in_o himself_o either_o to_o affirm_v or_o disaffirme_v the_o

judgement_n give_v for_o caecilianus_n against_o the_o donatist_n to_o be_v just_a and_o right_a do_v by_o his_o final_a sentence_n pronounce_v and_o declare_v they_o so_o to_o be_v do_v this_o therefore_o prove_v he_o to_o be_v no_o judge_n or_o do_v it_o any_o way_n detract_v from_o his_o supremacy_n yea_o it_o do_v rather_o very_o strong_o and_o most_o strong_o prove_v the_o emperor_n

and_o confute_v the_o imagination_n and_o devise_v of_o his_o own_o brain_n for_o the_o affirmative_a clause_n in_o the_o oath_n be_v not_o as_o he_o imperfect_o and_o lame_o relate_v it_o but_o it_o

exclude_v foreign_a prince_n person_n prelate_n state_n &_o potentate_n only_o from_o ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a authority_n but_o the_o former_a affirmative_a exclude_v they_o from_o

clause_n extend_v to_o any_o person_n whosoever_o whether_o foreign_a or_o domestical_a three_o the_o negative_a clause_n exclude_v foreign_a person_n from_o have_v any_o jurisdiction_n power_n

that_o realm_n in_o particular_a but_o general_o to_o all_o his_o majesty_n realm_n dominion_n &_o country_n so_o that_o the_o former_a affirmative_a clause_n in_o the_o oath_n appear_v to_o be_v
