let_v we_o proceed_v on_o ¶_o of_o princess_n and_o magistrate_n the_o chaste_a chapter_n the_o protestant_n hold_v opinion_n that_o all_o such_o as_o dwell_v within_o the_o land_n dominion_n or_o

any_o exception_n of_o person_n or_o of_o their_o good_n and_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v and_o to_o honour_v he_o as_o god_n lieutenant_n upon_o earth_n have_v the_o sword_n in_o his_o hand_n to_o minister_v justice_n to_o all_o man_n and_o to_o be_v the_o defender_n and_o maintainer_n of_o god_n commandment_n and_o to_o cause_v his_o subject_n to_o obey_v they_o also_o they_o hold_v opinion_n that_o all_o folk_n ought_v to_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o the_o preservation_n and_o prosperity_n of_o the_o prince_n and_o of_o all_o other_o magistrate_n and_o they_o believe_v that_o to_o disobey_v the_o prince_n be_v a_o disobey_v of_o god_n who_o have_v set_v he_o up_o and_o that_o man_n must_v obey_v he_o not_o only_o for_o fear_n but_o also_o for_o the_o duty_n of_o conscience_n which_o do_v bind_v we_o to_o obey_v god_n and_o so_o consequent_o the_o prince_n who_o god_n have_v command_v we_o to_o obey_v prince_n but_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o romish_a catholic_n be_v that_o such_o as_o be_v of_o the_o clergy_n be_v exempt_v from_o this_o general_a rule_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o the_o subject_n of_o temporal_a prince_n but_o of_o the_o pope_n and_o that_o so_o by_o consequence_n the_o prince_n neither_o may_v nor_o aught_o to_o levy_v any_o tribute_n benevolence_n loan_n or_o subsidy_n of_o the_o clergy_n of_o his_o country_n nor_o of_o

and_o excommunication_n whereof_o none_o other_a but_o only_o the_o pope_n himself_o can_v geve_v absolution_n also_o they_o hold_v opinion_n that_o the_o prince_n who_o they_o term_v secular_a have_v no_o authority_n in_o matter_n of_o ten_o nor_o in_o matter_n of_o matrimony_n among_o the_o lay_a people_n nor_o in_o many_o other_o such_o like_a thing_n three_o prince_n they_o hold_v opinion_n that_o the_o pope_n have_v power_n to_o put_v down_o king_n and_o prince_n and_o to_o deprive_v they_o of_o their_o realm_n and_o principality_n as_o pope_n gelasius_n vaunt_v himself_o in_o a_o

for_o any_o wicked_a do_n say_v he_o but_o because_o he_o be_v unfit_a to_o be_v a_o king_n and_o do_v set_v up_o king_n pipin_n the_o father_n of_o charlemagne_n in_o his_o place_n also_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o great_a authority_n which_o the_o pope_n take_v to_o themselves_o over_o king_n they_o be_v puff_v up_o with_o such_o pride_n ob_z that_o they_o compare_v themselves_o to_o the_o

disallow_v such_o limitation_n affirm_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o such_o jurisdiction_n over_o the_o subject_n of_o king_n and_o prince_n and_o see_v that_o prince_n be_v the_o lieutenant_n of_o

be_v better_a honour_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o protestant_n than_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o romish_a catholic_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o protestant_n be_v ground_v evident_o upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o command_v all_o man_n without_o exception_n of_o any_o person_n to_o obey_v the_o prince_n under_o who_o dominion_n they_o dwell_v not_o only_o for_o fear_n of_o his_o
