with_o the_o greek_n for_o four_o reason_n first_o because_o that_o whilst_o a_o cause_n remain_v undecided_a it_o be_v not_o reasonable_a that_o the_o one_o party_n shall_v be_v judge_v by_o the_o

which_o subject_n each_o nation_n to_o their_o proper_a prelate_n and_o the_o court_n of_o rome_n pretend_v to_o be_v above_o the_o canon_n therefore_o the_o greek_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o romish_a officer_n in_o this_o controversy_n the_o second_v be_v because_o that_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o before_o the_o division_n the_o grecian_n be_v in_o temporal_a judgement_n subject_a to_o the_o secular_a magistrate_n and_o in_o spiritual_a to_o their_o superior_n therefore_o it_o be_v just_a to_o have_v their_o right_a and_o custom_n maintain_v to_o they_o the_o three_o be_v because_o if_o the_o prince_n shall_v grant_v the_o inquisition_n power_n to_o judge_v the_o greek_n he_o shall_v deprive_v himself_o of_o his_o proper_a authority_n which_o he_o may_v

in_o the_o prince_n and_o the_o greek_n in_o these_o day_n do_v confess_v it_o and_o desire_v it_o may_v so_o continue_v so_o that_o with_o quietness_n justice_n may_v be_v administer_v by_o the_o

the_o most_o renown_a commonwealth_n give_v the_o greek_n leave_n to_o live_v according_a to_o their_o custom_n but_o their_o custom_n be_v that_o in_o secular_a thing_n and_o in_o the_o punish_n of_o any_o manner_n of_o offence_n they_o shall_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o prince_n and_o in_o spiritual_a thing_n they_o shall_v obey_v their_o priest_n therefore_o maintain_v the_o protection_n which_o

to_o be_v receive_v for_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o plain_a that_o as_o in_o the_o world_n nothing_o can_v be_v hold_v unchangeable_a and_o every_o custom_n ought_v to_o be_v accommodate_v to_o the_o
