i_o publish_v my_o apology_n i_o have_v see_v cardinal_n bellarmine_n reply_n to_o paulus_n venetus_n as_o i_o do_v not_o and_o therefore_o can_v not_o set_v down_o what_o the_o cardinal_n answer_v to_o his_o objection_n yet_o i_o must_v then_o also_o have_v affirm_v as_o also_o i_o do_v now_o that_o whatsoever_o cardinal_n bellarmine_n meaning_n be_v yet_o his_o word_n be_v so_o general_a and_o without_o any_o limitation_n or_o declaration_n that_o they_o may_v very_o well_o be_v understand_v in_o the_o aforesaid_a sense_n the_o pope_n say_v he_o can_v effect_v all_o that_o which_o be_v necessary_a to_o bring_v soul_n to_o paradise_n and_o can_v remove_v all_o the_o impediment_n which_o the_o world_n and_o the_o devil_n with_o all_o their_o force_n and_o sleight_n can_v oppose_v see_v therefore_o that_o the_o devil_n can_v by_o his_o power_n cast_v a_o man_n be_v in_o mortal_a sin_n into_o phrencie_n by_o which_o he_o be_v hinder_v from_o attain_v to_o eternal_a salvation_n and_o can_v hinder_v a_o infant_n from_o be_v baptize_v by_o cause_v the_o mother_n not_o to_o deliver_v it_o alive_a and_o also_o can_v cause_v sundry_a inward_a motion_n in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o because_o cardinal_n bellarmine_n word_n be_v so_o general_a and_o without_o any_o limitation_n or_o declaration_n the_o pope_n say_v he_o can_v remove_v all_o the_o impediment_n to_o salvation_n which_o the_o devil_n with_o all_o his_o force_n and_o sleight_n can_v oppose_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o they_o may_v very_o well_o be_v so_o understand_v that_o the_o pope_n can_v also_o remove_v the_o aforesaid_a impediment_n for_o that_o those_o impediment_n be_v include_v in_o all_o impediment_n as_o a_o particular_a in_o a_o universal_a and_o therefore_o to_o take_v away_o all_o occasion_n of_o error_n it_o be_v not_o unnecessary_a to_o declare_v in_o what_o sense_n those_o word_n be_v so_o general_a may_v be_v true_a or_o false_a 23_o beside_o although_o the_o pope_n power_n be_v not_o so_o limit_v and_o restrain_v as_o it_o be_v in_o man_n of_o inferior_a order_n but_o it_o be_v most_o ample_a most_o great_a and_o full_a in_o a_o certain_a measure_n and_o degree_n yet_o

to_o spiritual_a good_a other_o divine_n and_o lawyer_n who_o i_o cite_v above_o in_o the_o first_o part_n do_v contend_v that_o the_o pope_n by_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n have_v neither_o

the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o directive_a and_o coercive_v power_n and_o the_o proper_a act_n and_o object_n of_o either_o of_o they_o 62_o for_o as_o in_o all_o art_n science_n faculty_n and_o

as_o they_o be_v virtuous_a or_o vicious_a action_n and_o necessary_a or_o hurtful_a to_o the_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a good_a of_o soul_n be_v direct_o subject_a to_o the_o spiritual_a
