that_o ancient_a jurisdiction_n of_o the_o crown_n can_v punish_v man_n for_o peace_n and_o unity_n but_o for_o discord_n and_o dissension_n not_o for_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o this_o land_n which_o

for_o break_v god_n law_n and_o the_o king_n not_o for_o obedience_n but_o for_o disobedience_n not_o for_o virtue_n but_o for_o vice_n and_o this_o much_o my_o lord_n be_v evident_a by_o all_o law_n

the_o archdeacon_n at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v in_o saint_n margaret_n church_n in_o canterbury_n at_o the_o visitation_n among_o the_o clergy_n and_o sit_v there_o to_o hear_v cause_n yet_o now_o i_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v by_o the_o defendant_n own_o confession_n and_o by_o a_o necessary_a consequence_n from_o their_o confession_n that_o in_o these_o four_o accessory_n there_o be_v no_o

the_o principal_a and_o especial_a fault_n then_o by_o the_o force_n of_o comparison_n draw_v from_o the_o adversary_n own_o estimate_n the_o other_o four_o must_v needs_o be_v inferior_a and_o

i_o be_v enjoin_v to_o acknowledge_v my_o refusal_n to_o preach_v the_o archdeacon_n visitation_n sermon_n at_o the_o archdeacon_n and_o archbishop_n mandate_n to_o be_v a_o breach_n of_o canonical_a
