A81826	Of the right of churches and of the magistrates power over them. Wherein is further made out 1. the nullity and vanity of ecclesiasticall power (of ex-communicating, deposing, and making lawes) independent from the power of magistracy. 2. The absurdity of the distinctions of power and lawes into ecclesiasticall and civil, spirituall and temporall. 3. That these distinctions have introduced the mystery of iniquity into the world, and alwayes disunited the minds and affections of Christians and brethren. 4. That those reformers who have stood for a jurisdiction distinct from that of the magistrate, have unawares strenghthened [sic] the mystery of iniquity. / By Lewis du Moulin Professour of History in the Vniversity of Oxford.

and_o skilful_a in_o his_o art_n this_o be_v the_o very_a case_n of_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n who_o for_o that_o reason_n that_o man_n do_v not_o sit_v and_o vote_n in_o parliament_n consider_v as_o man_n of_o such_o a_o calling_n or_o profession_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n ought_v likewise_o to_o vote_n &_o sit_v in_o parliament_n for_o as_o the_o profession_n of_o physic_n or_o

such_o a_o complication_n betwixt_o the_o church_n &_o state_n as_o they_o can_v so_o much_o as_o be_v imagine_v asunder_o and_o that_o most_o law_n and_o constitution_n make_v by_o man_n be_v

8._o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n for_o minister_n to_o sit_v in_o parliament_n as_o there_o be_v for_o priest_n and_o levite_n to_o sit_v in_o synagogue_n and_o judicial_a assembly_n of_o the_o

people_n 9_o there_o be_v equal_a reason_n that_o if_o the_o supreme_a magistrate_n call_v say-man_n to_o sit_v and_o vote_n in_o synod_n he_o shall_v call_v the_o clergy_n to_o sit_v and_o vote_n in_o parliament_n 10._o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n so_o much_o as_o hear_v for_o many_o hundred_o year_n after_o the_o four_o age_n that_o minister_n and_o bishop_n shall_v be_v think_v incapable_a to_o sit_v and_o vote_n in_o the_o supreme_a court_n of_o the_o nation_n i_o can_v prove_v it_o by_o the_o practice_n of_o italy_n germany_n france_n spain_n and_o england_n for_o above_o 7_o or_o 8_o hundred_o year_n even_o far_o within_o popery_n that_o though_o the_o pope_n have_v much_o advance_v the_o hatch_n of_o his_o two_o egg_n ecclesiastical_a &_o civil_a jurisdiction_n yet_o all_o state-assembly_n be_v not_o distinguish_v either_o from_o synod_n or_o from_o civil_a court_n but_o promiscuous_o man_n of_o all_o rank_n and_o profession_n senator_n bishop_n lord_n priest_n
