by_o several_a statute_n of_o the_o land_n as_o for_o the_o archbishop_n right_n they_o have_v be_v urge_v and_o plead_v and_o oppose_v and_o yet_o perhaps_o prevail_v sometime_o against_o the_o pretension_n of_o the_o university_n exemption_n and_o because_o i_o will_v not_o speak_v of_o anything_o that_o may_v bear_v a_o controversy_n i_o will_v not_o examine_v the_o truth_n of_o that_o whether_o the_o archbishop_n have_v that_o power_n or_o no_o which_o he_o appear_v by_o some_o record_n sometime_o to_o have_v exercise_v but_o be_v content_a for_o once_o to_o take_v all_o for_o grant_v which_o can_v possible_o bear_v a_o dispute_n i_o shall_v only_o add_v that_o it_o be_v also_o clear_a 1._o that_o archbishop_n arundell_n visitation_n which_o be_v the_o main_a pregnant_a testimony_n in_o that_o matter_n be_v part_n of_o his_o 17._o his_o cancellario_fw-la universitatis_fw-la cantabrig_n eliensis_n dioecesis_fw-la nostrae_fw-la provinciae_fw-la cant._n p._n 14._o

ecclesiastical_a visitation_n and_o such_o as_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o diocese_n have_v also_o before_o the_o university_n be_v exempt_v from_o they_o and_o this_o will_v appear_v by_o the_o mention_n of_o 20._o of_o facturi_fw-la &_o recepturi_fw-la quod_fw-la canonicis_fw-la convenit_fw-la institutis_fw-la p._n 17._o &_o obedientiam_fw-la recepit_fw-la canon_n ib_n receptâ_fw-la

be_v perform_v and_o if_o against_o this_o it_o be_v object_v that_o it_o extend_v to_o the_o visit_v the_o university_n as_o a_o university_n yet_o all_o that_o can_v be_v argue_v from_o thence_o be_v only_o this_o that_o the_o ecclesiastical_a power_n be_v then_o far_o extend_v than_o it_o have_v be_v since_o the_o restraint_n as_o partly_o appear_v by_o this_o that_o till_o henry_n the_o eight_o time_n the_o founder_n be_v layman_n do_v general_o appoint_v bishop_n to_o be_v the_o visitor_n of_o their_o college_n not_o that_o it_o be_v a_o civil_a jurisdiction_n and_o so_o this_o belong_v not_o nor_o can_v with_o any_o colour_n be_v apply_v to_o the_o visitation_n now_o speak_v of_o which_o have_v by_o the_o commission_n power_n to_o hear_v and_o determine_v of_o breach_n against_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o be_v perfect_o civil_a 4._o that_o whatsoever_o jurisdiction_n or_o power_n of_o visit_v be_v on_o be_v in_o the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n do_v in_o time_n of_o vacancy_n reside_v in_o the_o king_n and_o consequent_o that_o since_o mr._n pryn_n and_o his_o friend_n have_v be_v so_o successful_a in_o their_o endeavour_n as_o to_o leave_v that_o chair_n void_a so_o long_o it_o be_v not_o imaginable_a that_o any_o such_o power_n pretend_v to_o belong_v to_o the_o archbishop_n shall_v be_v any_o where_o now_o but_o in_o the_o king_n and_o so_o still_o all_o this_o refutation_n of_o our_o plea_n apparent_o belong_v nothing_o to_o it_o because_o suppose_v all_o to_o be_v true_a that_o be_v here_o pretend_a of_o the_o archbishop_n power_n when_o there_o be_v a_o archbishop_n yet_o when_o episcopacy_n itself_o be_v by_o he_o that_o refute_v we_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v take_v away_o and_o to_o we_o that_o acknowledge_v not_o that_o yet_o it_o be_v visible_a that_o there_o be_v no_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n live_v nor_o pretence_n of_o commission_n from_o he_o but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o all_o his_o power_n in_o the_o vacancy_n be_v divolve_v to_o the_o king_n it_o be_v then_o about_o the_o pitch_n of_o one_o of_o mr._n pryn_n argument_n i.e._n little_o less_o than_o fury_n to_o pretend_v against_o the_o king_n sole_a visitation_n at_o this_o time_n assert_v by_o the_o university_n only_o from_o this_o proof_n that_o there_o be_v once_o in_o the_o archbishop_n some_o kind_n of_o right_n of_o some_o kind_n of_o visitation_n the_o three_o former_a pretension_n be_v thus_o plain_o supersede_v the_o bishop_n and_o the_o pope_n in_o integrum_fw-la and_o confest_o and_o the_o archbishop_n so_o also_o at_o this_o time_n when_o there_o be_v no_o archbishop_n of_o this_o province_n nor_o divolution_n of_o his_o power_n in_o this_o matter_n to_o any_o but_o the_o king_n it_o follow_v 1._o that_o the_o 3_o first_o thing_n which_o mr._n pryn_n undertake_v to_o prove_v 1._o that_o the_o university_n be_v ancient_o under_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o lincoln_n as_o dioecesan_n 2._o that_o it_o be_v till_o this_o parliament_n under_o the_o jurisdiction_n and_o visitation_n of_o the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n as_o metropolitan_a 3._o that_o the_o pope_n by_o his_o legate_n have_v visit_v both_o the_o university_n be_v direct_o and_o visible_o fall_v to_o nothing_o and_o for_o the_o 4_o thing_n that_o there_o be_v particular_a visitor_n of_o college_n appoint_v by_o the_o founder_n to_o who_o the_o visitation_n of_o those_o belong_v and_o not_o to_o the_o king_n only_o that_o be_v as_o little_a to_o this_o purpose_n unless_o it_o be_v to_o prove_v that_o they_o may_v not_o in_o that_o other_o respect_n submit_v to_o this_o visitation_n the_o debate_n or_o question_n be_v only_o of_o the_o university_n which_o be_v a_o several_a corporation_n and_o foundation_n distinct_a from_o the_o several_a college_n and_o so_o likewise_o for_o the_o 5_o that_o the_o university_n exemption_n be_v procure_v from_o pope_n and_o not_o from_o king_n of_o england_n that_o if_o it_o be_v grant_v be_v as_o of_o little_a force_n to_o conclude_v against_o we_o because_o the_o exemption_n which_o he_o mean_v be_v only_a exemption_n from_o the_o archbishop_n metropolitical_a visitation_n from_o which_o if_o we_o pretend_v no_o exemption_n at_o all_o yet_o be_v we_o in_o as_o good_a a_o estate_n as_o we_o will_v wish_v for_o our_o present_a plea_n because_o now_o in_o the_o vacancy_n that_o archiepiscopal_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o the_o king_n and_o when_o it_o be_v in_o the_o rivulet_n be_v yet_o always_o since_o the_o reformation_n content_a to_o acknowledge_v this_o fountain_n and_o then_o second_o it_o follow_v as_o natural_o as_o any_o thing_n can_v that_o the_o king_n pretention_n remain_v the_o only_a one_o imaginable_a at_o this_o time_n and_o against_o that_o or_o for_o any_o other_o at_o any_o time_n but_o the_o archbishop_n there_o be_v no_o appearance_n of_o plea_n or_o proof_n so_o much_o as_o offer_v by_o mr._n pryn._n all_o which_o we_o that_o see_v can_v not_o permit_v ourselves_o to_o be_v provoke_v by_o the_o shallowness_n of_o that_o one_o proof_n from_o the_o pretend_a archiepiscopal_a power_n to_o embroyl_n ourselves_o in_o any_o far_a contention_n or_o to_o think_v his_o refutation_n worth_n refute_v any_o more_o than_o we_o be_v tell_v the_o committee_n themselves_o will_v hearken_v to_o it_o when_o he_o offer_v that_o to_o their_o ear_n which_o here_o he_o have_v do_v to_o our_o other_o sense_n nor_o shall_v i_o now_o have_v say_v thus_o much_o to_o it_o do_v i_o not_o submit_v to_o your_o judgement_n who_o demand_v it_o of_o i_o blind_o and_o to_o the_o deny_v of_o my_o own_o now_o for_o the_o second_o the_o general_a reputation_n this_o man_n have_v among_o we_o if_o we_o behold_v he_o not_o as_o a_o man_n or_o as_o one_o degrade_v by_o this_o university_n but_o as_o a_o writer_n and_o view_v he_o as_o he_o be_v draw_v out_o by_o himself_o in_o his_o book_n we_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o one_o from_o the_o begin_n very_o confident_a and_o ready_a to_o undertake_v and_o manage_v any_o cause_n in_o any_o faculty_n and_o to_o maintain_v it_o by_o what_o argument_n he_o please_v have_v a_o strange_a dexterity_n wherein_o he_o go_v beyond_o all_o the_o artificer_n of_o the_o age_n to_o prove_v his_o conclusion_n by_o medium_n most_o direct_o contrary_a to_o it_o and_o to_o disguise_v his_o great_a enemy_n into_o as_o fair_a a_o set_v of_o correspondent_o and_o friend_n as_o he_o have_v any_o to_o deal_v with_o objection_n as_o ill_a habit_n of_o body_n do_v with_o physic_n turn_v all_o into_o the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o prevalent_a humour_n such_o topic_n he_o use_v when_o from_o my_o lord_n of_o canterbury_n diary_n he_o resolve_v to_o conclude_v his_o reproach_n and_o infamy_n and_o gather_v thence_o a_o sufficient_a matter_n for_o a_o charge_n to_o invade_v his_o
