this_o omnipotency_n of_o his_o power_n be_v it_o more_o or_o less_o must_v needs_o terminate_v in_o this_o that_o he_o have_v no_o power_n where_o he_o will_v have_v no_o power_n and_o can_v command_v where_o he_o will_v not_o command_v nay_o i_o may_v safe_o conclude_v that_o a_o good_a catholic_n may_v believe_v he_o do_v not_o command_v where_o he_o plain_o open_o and_o solemn_o say_v he_o will_v not_o command_v till_o he_o unsay_v that_o say_n this_o in_o plain_a term_n be_v the_o pope_n fate_n now_o in_o england_n they_o have_v long_o since_o by_o a_o unrepeal_v public_a act_n of_o their_o authority_n excommunicate_v in_o the_o high_a manner_n this_o whole_a nation_n interdict_v to_o the_o very_a ground_n that_o feed_v we_o and_o the_o air_n we_o breath_n any_o spiritual_a

though_o this_o be_v reasonable_a nay_o may_v be_v unanswerable_a as_o to_o the_o thing_n then_o plead_v for_o yet_o it_o will_v be_v no_o way_n satisfactory_a to_o the_o point_n now_o in_o hand_n which_o be_v whether_o the_o pope_n have_v any_o authority_n leave_v in_o england_n or_o no_o for_o that_o be_v plain_a he_o have_v not_o for_o though_o at_o first_o it_o may_v be_v all_o our_o

catholic_n church_n till_o that_o solemn_a excommunication_n be_v take_v off_o in_o this_o condition_n be_v england_n and_o scotland_n put_v by_o the_o pope_n whilst_o ireland_n our_o neighbour_n
