subject_n in_o truth_n than_o they_o who_o their_o birth_n have_v teach_v to_o miscall_v sovereign_a we_o see_v this_o in_o france_n and_o in_o england_n especial_o where_o at_o once_o they_o learn_v both_o to_o obey_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n as_o their_o mother_n to_o acknowledge_v the_o catholic_a king_n as_o their_o father_n and_o to_o hate_v their_o own_o king_n as_o a_o heretic_n and_o a_o

of_o policy_n i_o speak_v this_o the_o more_o bold_o here_o in_o this_o presence_n because_o i_o speak_v here_o before_o none_o but_o native_n person_n who_o be_v partaker_n both_o in_o themselves_o

this_o a_o old_a observation_n but_o a_o true_a that_o for_o our_o piety_n to_o rome_n his_o holiness_n do_v not_o only_o give_v but_o also_o bless_v we_o in_o the_o conquest_n of_o the_o new_a

this_o i_o affirm_v sure_a because_o there_o can_v be_v no_o security_n but_o such_o prince_n as_o be_v now_o romish_a catholic_n may_v turn_v heretic_n hereafter_o my_o aim_n have_v ever_o be_v to_o
