to_o write_v you_o a_o historical_a discourse_n i_o will_v touch_v they_o light_o for_o that_o i_o speak_v of_o they_o obiter_fw-la and_o by_o digression_n and_o i_o hold_v it_o sufficient_a to_o

and_o what_o credit_n may_v be_v give_v to_o a_o history_n set_v it_o down_o in_o a_o opinion_n not_o controlable_a that_o in_o matter_n touch_v france_n or_o england_n you_o ought_v not_o to_o credit_v a_o french_a or_o english_a history_n but_o rather_o a_o stranger_n write_v thereof_o with_o more_o indifferency_n and_o less_o partiality_n yet_o as_o in_o cause_n which_o can_v be_v well_o decide_v or_o perfect_o know_v but_o by_o domestical_a witness_n their_o testimony_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o all_o other_o so_o in_o matter_n of_o state_n which_o can_v be_v so_o well_o

who_o refute_v this_o objection_n by_o reckon_v up_o a_o beadroll_n of_o king_n who_o do_v not_o succeed_v one_o another_o but_o be_v choose_v one_o after_o another_o pharamont_n say_v he_o in_o his_o

and_o there_o remain_v even_o at_o this_o day_n a_o certain_a form_n of_o election_n which_o be_v make_v at_o the_o consecrate_v and_o crown_v of_o the_o king_n at_o beihin_n where_o the_o peer_n of_o france_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o clergy_n nobility_n and_o people_n choose_v the_o king_n that_o be_v present_a here_o you_o see_v a_o election_n begin_v in_o pharamont_n continue_v in_o other_o

than_o by_o custom_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v when_o we_o come_v to_o another_o of_o their_o objection_n that_o neither_o this_o election_n nor_o this_o custom_n in_o succession_n have_v be_v always_o due_o keep_v and_o observe_v the_o second_o objection_n against_o this_o agreement_n be_v that_o although_o contract_n do_v bind_v prince_n as_o well_o as_o subject_n answer_n yet_o such_o

this_o contract_n do_v neither_o bind_v he_o nor_o his_o successor_n to_o this_o it_o be_v easy_o answer_v that_o contract_v make_v by_o man_n disable_v by_o law_n to_o enter_v into_o any_o such_o

of_o this_o point_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o show_v what_o authority_n he_o have_v to_o excommunicate_v but_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n that_o require_v a_o whole_a and_o large_a volume_n and_o therefore_o i_o have_v think_v good_a not_o to_o meddle_v therewith_o but_o to_o refer_v you_o for_o your_o better_a instruction_n unto_o the_o large_a apology_n which_o marsilius_n paturius_fw-la

that_o both_o he_o himself_o obey_v and_o teach_v his_o apostle_n to_o obey_v prince_n there_o you_o shall_v understand_v that_o saint_n paul_n the_o apostle_n saint_n peter_n and_o other_o of_o

with_o temporal_a matter_n and_o that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o more_o authority_n to_o pardon_v sin_n or_o excommunicate_v any_o man_n than_o other_o inferior_a priest_n and_o minister_n have_v
