the_o meddle_v with_o spiritual_a censure_n and_o the_o power_n of_o the_o key_n can_v be_v rational_o suppose_v to_o have_v think_v their_o own_o presence_n either_o personal_a or_o virtual_a any_o way_n requisite_a in_o the_o court_n where_o such_o censure_n be_v to_o be_v pronounce_v and_o that_o power_n to_o be_v administer_v and_o exercise_v and_o therefore_o doubtless_o can_v not_o deem_v it_o fit_a or_o proper_a that_o in_o the_o juridical_a proceed_n of_o such_o court_v their_o name_n shall_v be_v use_v xii_o the_o second_o point_n in_o the_o charge_n object_v be_v that_o this_o custom_n use_v by_o the_o bishop_n in_o act_v all_o thing_n in_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n in_o their_o own_o name_n grow_v at_o first_o from_o the_o exorbitant_a power_n of_o the_o pope_n who_o labour_v what_o they_o can_v to_o advance_v their_o own_o greatness_n by_o exempt_n the_o clergy_n from_o all_o subjection_n to_o temporal_a prince_n and_o set_v up_o a_o ecclesiastical_a power_n of_o jurisdiction_n independent_a upon_o the_o secular_a and_o that_o the_o parliament_n have_v that_o sense_n of_o it_o in_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o as_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n make_v i._o edward_n vi_o for_o the_o alter_n of_o the_o say_a custom_n do_v plain_o intimate_v xiii_o in_o which_o part_n of_o the_o charge_n there_o be_v at_o the_o most_o but_o thus_o much_o of_o truth_n 1._o that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o omit_v with_o all_o sedulity_n to_o pursue_v the_o grand_a design_n of_o that_o see_v which_o be_v to_o bring_v all_o christian_a prince_n into_o subjection_n to_o itself_o 2._o that_o all_o the_o labour_a for_o the_o exemption_n of_o the_o clergy_n from_o the_o secular_a power_n be_v in_o order_n to_o that_o design_n 3._o that_o the_o bishop_n manner_n of_o use_v their_o own_o name_n in_o all_o act_n of_o their_o jurisdiction_n look_v upon_o alone_a and_o by_o itself_o without_o any_o consideration_n of_o the_o true_a reason_n thereof_o do_v carry_v by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o show_v of_o serve_v the_o papal_a interest_n then_o if_o they_o shall_v do_v all_o in_o the_o king_n name_n by_o how_o much_o the_o acknowledge_v the_o king_n supremacy-ecclesiastical_a be_v less_o apparent_a therein_o then_o in_o the_o other_o 4._o that_o the_o want_n of_o such_o a_o express_a acknowledgement_n of_o the_o king_n supremacy_n together_o with_o the_o jealousy_n the_o state_n have_v in_o those_o time_n over_o any_o thing_n that_o may_v seem_v to_o further_o or_o favour_n the_o usurp_a power_n of_o the_o pope_n in_o the_o least_o degree_n may_v very_o probable_o in_o this_o particular_a as_o well_o as_o it_o do_v in_o some_o other_o thing_n occasion_n such_o man_n as_o bear_v the_o great_a sway_n in_o manage_v the_o public_a affair_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o that_o godly_a but_o young_a king_n be_v reign_n out_o of_o a_o just_a detestation_n of_o the_o papacy_n to_o endeavour_v overhasty_o the_o

requisite_a in_o a_o matter_n of_o so_o great_a importance_n xiiii_o this_o be_v all_o we_o can_v perhaps_o more_o than_o we_o need_v yield_v unto_o in_o this_o point_n of_o the_o charge_n but_o then_o there_o be_v some_o other_o thing_n which_o we_o can_v easy_o assent_v unto_o as_o viz._n 1._o that_o this_o custom_n have_v undoubted_o its_o original_n and_o growth_n from_o the_o pope_n usurp_a power_n which_o as_o we_o think_v it_o impossible_a for_o they_o to_o prove_v so_o it_o seem_v to_o we_o the_o less_o probable_a because_o by_o compare_v of_o this_o course_n use_v in_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n with_o the_o practice_n of_o sundry_a other_o court_n some_o of_o like_a some_o of_o different_a nature_n thereunto_o we_o have_v already_o show_v the_o true_a reason_n and_o ground_n of_o the_o difference_n between_o some_o court_n and_o othersome_a in_o this_o particular_a 2._o that_o it_o be_v a_o rag_n or_o relic_n of_o antichristian_a tyranny_n which_o we_o believe_v to_o be_v altogether_o untrue_a not_o only_o for_o the_o reason_n before_o specify_v and_o for_o that_o the_o same_o be_v do_v in_o sundry_a other_o court_n hold_v within_o this_o realm_n without_o any_o note_n of_o antichristianisme_n or_o popery_n fasten_v thereupon_o but_o also_o because_o it_o have_v be_v constant_o continue_v in_o this_o kingdom_n the_o short_a reign_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o only_o except_v with_o the_o allowance_n of_o all_o the_o protestant_n king_n and_o queen_n of_o this_o realm_n ever_o since_o the_o reformation_n who_o although_o they_o be_v ever_o and_o anon_o tax_v by_o the_o puritane-faction_n unjust_o and_o insolent_o enough_o for_o want_v of_o a_o through-reformation_n and_o leave_v so_o much_o popish_a trash_n unpurged_a in_o the_o point_n of_o worship_n and_o ceremony_n yet_o have_v not_o usual_o be_v blame_v by_o that_o party_n for_o be_v want_v to_o themselves_o in_o vindicate_v to_o the_o uttermost_a their_o regal_a authority_n and_o

also_o because_o this_o manner_n of_o proceed_v in_o the_o court_v ecclesiastical_a have_v be_v constant_o and_o without_o scruple_n of_o conscience_n or_o suspicion_n of_o popery_n use_v and_o practise_v by_o all_o our_o godly_a and_o orthodox_n bishop_n even_o those_o who_o have_v be_v the_o most_o zealous_a maintainer_n of_o our_o religion_n against_o the_o papist_n and_o such_o as_o have_v particular_o write_v against_o the_o antichristian_a tyranny_n of_o the_o pope_n or_o in_o defence_n of_o the_o king_n supremacy_n in_o matter_n ecclesiastical_a as_o jewel_n bilson_n abbot_n buckridge_n carleton_n and_o many_o other_o xv._n but_o against_o all_o this_o that_o have_v be_v say_v how_o agreeable_a soever_o it_o may_v seem_v to_o truth_n and_o reason_n may_v be_v oppose_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o whole_a realm_n in_o parliament_n the_o bishop_n themselves_o also_o then_o sit_v and_o vote_v as_o well_o as_o other_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o in_o the_o first_o year_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o who_o think_v fit_a by_o their_o act_n to_o alter_v the_o aforesaid_a form_n and_o that_o upon_o the_o two_o aforesaid_a ground_n viz._n that_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o form_n and_o order_n of_o the_o common_a law-court_n and_o according_a to_o the_o form_n and_o manner_n use_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o usurp_a power_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n which_o be_v the_o last_o and_o weighty_a point_n in_o the_o charge_n be_v the_o more_o considerable_a in_o that_o beside_o its_o own_o strength_n it_o give_v also_o far_o strength_n and_o confirmation_n to_o the_o other_o two_o xvi_o but_o for_o answer_v unto_o this_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o parliament_n as_o it_o be_v declare_v in_o the_o

viz._n the_o great_a assembly_n of_o state_n convene_v in_o parliament_n so_o judge_v or_o in_o validity_n of_o those_o reason_n which_o lead_v they_o so_o to_o judge_v if_o in_o this_o late_a their_o judgement_n can_v weigh_v no_o more_o than_o the_o reason_n do_v whereon_o it_o be_v build_v the_o frailty_n whereof_o we_o have_v already_o examine_v and_o discover_v if_o in_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o judge_n we_o lay_v in_o the_o balance_n against_o it_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o kingdom_n in_o all_o the_o parliament_n after_o the_o decease_n of_o king_n edward_n for_o above_o fourscore_o year_n together_o the_o first_o whereof_o repeat_v that_o statute_n and_o none_o of_o those_o that_o follow_v for_o aught_o appear_v to_o we_o ever_o go_v about_o to_o revive_v it_o xvii_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v say_v first_o that_o the_o enact_v of_o that_o statute_n by_o king_n edward_n be_v do_v in_o order_n to_o the_o far_o abolish_n of_o popery_n and_o the_o perfect_a of_o the_o

for_o the_o bishop_n to_o have_v use_v that_o power_n or_o interest_n they_o have_v with_o the_o queen_n upon_o who_o favour_n or_o displeasure_n their_o whole_a livelihood_n depend_v for_o the_o procure_n of_o her_o consent_n to_o any_o act_n to_o be_v do_v in_o favour_n of_o they_o that_o malice_n itself_o can_v with_o any_o colourable_a construction_n interpret_v either_o to_o savour_v of_o popery_n or_o to_o trench_v upon_o the_o royal_a supremacy_n that_o queen_n have_v both_o by_o her_o suffering_n before_o and_o action_n after_o she_o come_v to_o the_o crown_n sufficient_o witness_v

i_o think_v we_o may_v with_o good_a reason_n conclude_v that_o the_o ancient_a custom_n of_o the_o bishop_n in_o make_v summons_n etc._n etc._n in_o their_o own_o name_n after_o it_o be_v by_o the_o act_n of_o repeal_n 1._o mar._n restore_v be_v continue_v by_o queen_n elizabeth_n and_o her_o successor_n ever_o since_o without_o interruption_n or_o revive_v of_o the_o statute_n of_o king_n edward_n neither_o out_o of_o any_o inadvertency_n in_o the_o state_n nor_o through_o any_o importune_a or_o indirect_a labour_a of_o the_o bishop_n as_o by_o the_o objector_n be_v weak_o presume_v but_o advise_o and_o upon_o important_a consideration_n viz._n that_o the_o devise_v of_o such_o a_o new_a way_n as_o be_v set_v forth_o and_o appoint_v in_o the_o say_a statute_n be_v not_o only_o a_o needless_a thing_n and_o law_n shall_v not_o be_v either_o make_v or_o alter_v but_o where_o it_o be_v needful_a so_o to_o do_v but_o subject_a also_o to_o manifest_v both_o inconvenience_n and_o scandal_n xxx_o that_o it_o be_v altogether_o needless_a to_o change_v the_o old_a custom_n may_v appear_v by_o this_o that_o all_o the_o imaginable_a necessity_n or_o utility_n of_o such_o a_o change_n can_v be_v only_o this_o to_o secure_v the_o king_n by_o use_v his_o name_n in_o their_o process_n &c._n &c._n as_o a_o real_a acknowledgement_n that_o their_o jurisdiction_n be_v derive_v from_o he_o and_o no_o other_o that_o the_o bishop_n have_v no_o intention_n in_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o episcopal_a power_n to_o usurp_v upon_o his_o ecclesiastical_a supremacy_n which_o supremacy_n of_o the_o king_n and_o superiority_n of_o his_o jurisdiction_n &_o authority_n over_o that_o which_o the_o bishop_n exercise_v be_v already_o by_o so_o many_o other_o way_n and_o mean_v
