lawful_a and_o a_o matter_n of_o conscience_n to_o obey_v his_o wicked_a and_o most_o execrable_a sentence_n when_o he_o appoint_v the_o english_a preiest_n and_o other_o to_o take_v part_n with_o

the_o four_o conclusion_n the_o pope_n have_v no_o authority_n to_o assoil_v or_o exempt_v the_o subiece_n of_o this_o realm_n from_o the_o homage_n to_o her_o majesty_n this_o conclusion_n be_v

yet_o be_v it_o clear_a i_o ween_v enen_fw-la in_o the_o opinion_n of_o every_o papist_n that_o god_n be_v the_o pope_n superior_a and_o so_o the_o pope_n have_v not_o to_o change_v or_o alter_v his_o

of_o nature_n or_o nor_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v brief_o that_o it_o be_v so_o and_o i_o prove_v it_o because_o our_o allegiance_n to_o our_o sovereign_n be_v comprise_v in_o the_o first_o precept_n

i_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o the_o late_a bishop_n of_o rome_n show_v who_o and_o what_o they_o be_v when_o they_o proud_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o assoil_v subject_n from_o their_o allegiance_n
