indies_n i_o have_v think_v good_a to_o set_v down_o my_o opinion_n how_o many_o way_n they_o do_v or_o may_v take_v their_o claim_n and_o first_o by_o discovery_n second_o by_o the_o pope_n gift_n three_o by_o consent_n of_o the_o people_n fourthly_a by_o conquest_n and_o consent_n so_o as_o if_o neither_o of_o these_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v or_o give_v a_o good_a and_o sufficient_a title_n or_o at_o least_o such_o a_o one_o as_o may_v bar_v you_o and_o other_o prince_n that_o will_v to_o inhabit_v in_o those_o part_n i_o know_v no_o reason_n why_o your_o majesty_n shall_v not_o do_v as_o he_o have_v do_v that_o be_v to_o possess_v as_o much_o as_o you_o can_v of_o those_o heathen_a country_n especial_o where_o the_o spaniard_n be_v not_o seat_v nor_o have_v no_o command_n whereby_o you_o may_v not_o only_o propagate_v the_o christian_a faith_n among_o those_o pagan_n and_o infidel_n as_o you_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v as_o much_o as_o you_o can_v but_o a_o golden_a world_n to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n whereby_o you_o be_v more_o enable_v as_o well_o to_o undertake_v a_o foreign_a war_n against_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o christian_a name_n as_o also_o to_o make_v your_o state_n the_o more_o strong_a by_o the_o indian_a treasure_n against_o such_o of_o your_o neighbour_n as_o shall_v envy_v your_o highness_n and_o therefore_o to_o come_v to_o his_o title_n if_o he_o claim_v his_o interest_n by_o possession_n and_o first_o discovery_n which_o doubtless_o must_v be_v the_o strong_a title_n that_o he_o can_v challenge_v than_o your_o majesty_n have_v as_o much_o title_n for_o all_o the_o firm_a land_n of_o the_o indies_n as_o he_o have_v for_o these_o land_n before_o name_v as_o for_o proof_n of_o this_o the_o captain_n of_o henry_n the_o

the_o very_a year_n before_o christian_a columbus_n discover_v the_o high_a land_n of_o dania_n on_o the_o south_n part_n of_o the_o indies_n which_o be_v the_o first_o day_n that_o ever_o the_o spaniard_n see_v the_o main_a and_o take_v possession_n of_o that_o new_a discovery_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o henry_n the_o 7_o and_o his_o successor_n their_o lord_n and_o master_n so_o as_o if_o first_o discovery_n and_o possession_n be_v his_o title_n your_o majesty_n precede_v he_o in_o that_o say_a title_n must_v necessary_o precede_v he_o in_o the_o right_a thereof_o if_o he_o claim_v it_o by_o the_o gift_n of_o pope_n alexander_n the_o six_o than_o it_o must_v be_v argue_v whether_o the_o say_a pope_n have_v power_n to_o give_v it_o yea_o or_o no_o if_o not_o than_o the_o gift_n be_v void_a in_o itself_o if_o yea_o he_o must_v prove_v it_o either_o by_o divine_a or_o human_a argument_n for_o human_a he_o can_v for_o that_o no_o way_n belong_v to_o he_o or_o any_o other_o

direct_o or_o by_o circumstance_n he_o have_v no_o right_a to_o give_v or_o dispose_v thereof_o either_o in_o present_a or_o future_a and_o thus_o for_o human._n for_o divine_a argument_n if_o he_o say_v he_o give_v they_o as_o christ_n vicar_n whereby_o he_o may_v dispose_v of_o king_n or_o kingdom_n he_o must_v prove_v that_o authority_n by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o else_o we_o be_v not_o

also_o he_o confess_v open_o to_o pilate_n that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n why_o then_o do_v the_o pope_n who_o acknowledge_v himself_o to_o be_v no_o better_o than_o his_o servant_n take_v upon_o he_o the_o give_v of_o so_o many_o kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n but_o the_o pope_n say_v they_o give_v ireland_n to_o henry_n the_o 2_o and_o his_o successor_n and_o indeed_o they_o do_v so_o in_o word_n but_o when_o have_v he_o it_o when_o he_o have_v fast_o foot_n in_o it_o and_o when_o dernitius_fw-la the_o king_n of_o lemster_n have_v make_v the_o king_n of_o england_n his_o heir_n but_o for_o all_o that_o donation_n have_v not_o the_o king_n of_o this_o land_n by_o the_o sharpness_n of_o the_o sword_n more_o prevail_v then_o by_o this_o gift_n the_o pope_n donation_n have_v stand_v in_o little_a stead_n neither_o do_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o irish_a king_n admit_v or_o allow_v of_o the_o pope_n donation_n for_o if_o they_o have_v they_o will_v never_o have_v rebel_v so_o often_o against_o this_o crown_n but_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n though_o we_o confess_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v do_v this_o or_o that_o yet_o it_o be_v no_o good_a argument_n in_o my_o opinion_n to_o say_v that_o they_o do_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v lawful_a unless_o they_o can_v show_v they_o do_v it_o rightful_o but_o the_o pope_n gift_n of_o the_o west_n indies_n may_v well_o be_v compare_v to_o the_o sermon_n of_o judge_n molineux_n his_o chaplain_n in_o queen_n mary_n day_n who_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v by_o a_o lively_a text_n out_o of_o the_o scripture_n to_o his_o parishioner_n what_o a_o lie_a knave_n the_o devil_n be_v and_o for_o his_o text_n he_o take_v the_o place_n where_o the_o devil_n take_v christ_n and_o carry_v he_o up_o to_o the_o mountain_n from_o whence_o he_o show_v he_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n &_o tell_v he_o it_z he_o will_v fall_v down_o and_o worship_v he_o he_o will_v give_v they_o all_o unto_o he_o my_o master_n quoth_v he_o by_o this_o you_o may_v well_o perceive_v what_o a_o liar_n he_o be_v for_o he_o have_v no_o more_o right_a to_o have_v give_v he_o these_o kingdom_n if_o will_v have_v fall_v down_o and_o worship_v he_o than_o myself_o that_o be_o now_o in_o the_o pulpit_n if_o i_o shall_v say_v to_o you_o all_o now_o sir_n if_o you_o will_v all_o fall_v down_o and_o

these_o kingdom_n to_o christ_n the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o who_o by_o right_n they_o do_v pertain_v will_v never_o have_v suffer_v he_o to_o have_v enjoy_v they_o and_o so_o for_o that_o for_o the_o earth_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o all_o that_o dwell_v therein_o he_o found_v and_o prepare_v it_o as_o in_o the_o psalmist_n and_o so_o consequent_o neither_o the_o pope_n nor_o the_o
