therefore_o no_o such_o power_n be_v give_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o sign_n or_o word_n in_o the_o protestant_a form_n i_o prove_v out_o of_o the_o form_n itself_o which_o be_v this_o make_v

what_o have_v be_v say_v you_o will_v object_v first_o that_o i_o prove_v they_o to_o be_v no_o priest_n because_o they_o be_v no_o bishop_n that_o make_v they_o and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n i_o prove_v they_o no_o bishop_n because_o they_o be_v no_o priest_n which_o be_v a_o vicious_a circle_n but_o i_o easy_o answer_v this_o because_o i_o first_o prove_v à_fw-fr priori_fw-la that_o be_v from_o the_o essential_a which_o ought_v to_o give_v be_v to_o each_o of_o they_o that_fw-mi they_o be_v several_o null_a and_o each_o of_o they_o be_v null_a for_o that_o reason_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o it_o be_v a_o cause_n of_o invalidity_n in_o the_o other_o for_o as_o he_o can_v be_v no_o bishop_n who_o be_v prove_v to_o be_v no_o priest_n so_o he_o can_v make_v no_o priest_n who_o be_v prove_v to_o be_v no_o bishop_n second_o you_o will_v object_v and_o salve_v up_o all_o the_o defect_n aforementioned_a in_o one_o word_n to_o wit_n that_o although_o the_o form_n use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v invalid_a in_o king_n edward_n '_o s_z queen_n elizabeth_n king_n james_n '_o s_z and_o king_n charles_n the_o first_o be_v time_n for_o want_v of_o a_o valid_a form_n of_o ordination_n yet_o now_o it_o be_v valid_a in_o our_o sovereign_a king_n charles_n the_o second_v with_o who_o the_o parliament_n now_o sit_v have_v appoint_v a_o true_a form_n enact_v that_o for_o the_o future_a to_o wit_n after_o st._n bartholomew_n day_n 1662._o the_o form_n of_o ordain_v a_o priest_n shall_v be_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o office_n of_o a_o priest_n and_o of_o a_o bishop_n receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o office_n and_o work_n of_o a_o bishop_n but_o to_o this_o i_o will_v answer_v you_o in_o another_o word_n that_o the_o salve_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o sore_a because_o by_o this_o change_n of_o the_o form_n before_o establish_v they_o acknowledge_v it_o to_o be_v null_a for_o why_o else_o need_v they_o change_v it_o second_o by_o it_o they_o in_o effect_n acknowledge_v all_o their_o bishop_n and_o priest_n till_o that_o time_n to_o be_v null_a because_o ordain_v by_o a_o form_n that_o be_v null_n and_o can_v not_o give_v power_n it_o have_v not_o nor_o signify_v three_o because_o be_v no_o bishop_n already_o they_o can_v ordain_v valid_o by_o any_o form_n whatsoever_o for_o no_o man_n can_v give_v what_o he_o have_v not_o as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o last_o whatsoever_o power_n this_o act_n give_v to_o ordain_v be_v from_o the_o parliament_n and_o not_o from_o christ_n which_o be_v what_o i_o first_o undertake_v to_o show_v and_o destroy_v their_o order_n root_v and_o branch_n now_o although_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o their_o minister_n grant_v this_o change_n of_o their_o form_n of_o ordination_n yet_o if_o any_o one_o shall_v deny_v it_o you_o need_v only_o look_v upon_o the_o form_n of_o make_v bishop_n and_o priest_n make_v 〈◊〉_d and_o which_o be_v only_o

his_o party_n yet_o he_o do_v overthrow_v all_o those_o argument_n against_o it_o that_o be_v bring_v in_o this_o paper_n and_o show_v they_o be_v of_o no_o force_n this_o write_n of_o his_o have_v not_o be_v yet_o print_v but_o i_o have_v peruse_v it_o in_o the_o manuscript_n yet_o that_o this_o may_v not_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o decline_a of_o the_o task_n you_o have_v invite_v i_o to_o and_o because_o the_o book_n i_o have_v mention_v be_v not_o perhaps_o in_o your_o hand_n i_o shall_v say_v as_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o it_o as_o i_o hope_v may_v full_o satisfy_v you_o or_o any_o impartial_a reader_n the_o substance_n of_o the_o first_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o our_o minister_n be_v not_o priest_n be_v that_o by_o the_o form_n of_o our_o ordination_n the_o power_n of_o consecrate_v the_o sacrament_n of_o christ_n most_o holy_a body_n and_o blood_n be_v not_o give_v the_o word_n only_o import_v a_o power_n to_o dispense_v the_o sacrament_n which_o any_o deacon_n may_v do_v therefore_o the_o power_n of_o consecrate_v or_o make_v christ_n body_n and_o blood_n present_a be_v essential_a to_o the_o priesthood_n and_o our_o form_n not_o express_v it_o and_o by_o consequence_n not_o give_v it_o it_o want_v one_o essential_a requisite_a to_o the_o priesthood_n and_o therefore_o those_o that_o be_v ordain_v by_o it_o be_v not_o true_a priest_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v 1._o if_o our_o form_n be_v the_o same_o in_o which_o christ_n ordain_v his_o apostle_n we_o may_v be_v very_o well_o satisfy_v that_o it_o be_v good_a and_o sufficient_a now_o when_o our_o saviour_n ordain_v they_o s._n john_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o say_v 22._o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o soever_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v to_o they_o and_o who_o soever_o sin_n

you_o we_o can_v think_v no_o form_n so_o good_a and_o so_o full_a as_o that_o he_o make_v use_v of_o it_o be_v true_a we_o do_v not_o judge_v any_o form_n so_o essential_a as_o to_o annul_v all_o ordination_n that_o have_v be_v make_v by_o any_o other_o for_o than_o we_o shall_v condemn_v both_o the_o ordination_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o of_o the_o eastern_a church_n at_o this_o

the_o general_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n sacrament_n it_o be_v no_o term_n use_v in_o scripture_n but_o bring_v into_o the_o church_n we_o shall_v not_o much_o dispute_n against_o its_o be_v call_v so_o for_o by_o their_o doctrine_n both_o matter_n and_o form_n of_o the_o sacrament_n must_v be_v institute_v by_o christ_n and_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o church_n ●…rent_a now_o they_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o form_n of_o give_v order_n in_o their_o church_n be_v not_o institute_v by_o christ_n nor_o receive_v in_o the_o church_n for_o divers_a age_n which_o make_v pope_n innocent_a say_v that_o the_o form_n of_o ordination_n be_v order_v and_o invent_v by_o the_o church_n and_o be_v therefore_o to_o be_v observe_v otherwise_o it_o be_v sufficient_a in_o give_v order_n to_o say_v be_v thou_o a_o bishop_n or_o be_v thou_o a_o priest_n therefore_o though_o we_o do_v not_o annul_v order_n give_v by_o any_o other_o form_n yet_o we_o have_v all_o reason_n to_o conclude_v that_o use_v by_o our_o saviour_n to_o be_v not_o only_o sufficient_a but_o absolute_o the_o best_a and_o fit_a it_o be_v without_o all_o colour_n of_o reason_n that_o the_o writer_n of_o that_o church_n will_v have_v the_o word_n our_o saviour_n pronounce_v after_o he_o have_v institute_v the_o eucharist_n this_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o to_o be_v the_o form_n by_o which_o he_o ordain_v they_o priest_n for_o this_o do_v must_v relate_v to_o the_o whole_a action_n of_o the_o sacrament_n the_o receive_v and_o eat_v as_o well_o as_o the_o blessing_n and_o consecrate_v therefore_o these_o word_n be_v only_o a_o command_n to_o the_o church_n to_o continue_v the_o use_n of_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n in_o remembrance_n of_o christ._n nor_o do_v those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n think_v these_o be_v the_o word_n by_o which_o christ_n ordain_v they_o priest_n otherwise_o they_o will_v use_v they_o and_o think_v they_o sufficient_a but_o they_o

it_o be_v certain_a that_o king_n and_o parliament_n have_v the_o supreme_a legislative_a authority_n in_o this_o realm_n and_o this_o they_o have_v from_o the_o law_n of_o god_n nature_n and_o society_n confirm_v by_o the_o gospel_n which_o command_v we_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n therefore_o whatever_o they_o enact_v that_o be_v within_o the_o limit_n of_o their_o

the_o civil_a power_n can_v change_v the_o nature_n of_o thing_n to_o make_v good_a evil_n or_o evil_a good_a but_o only_o give_v authority_n and_o security_n and_o in_o this_o they_o be_v restrain_v in_o thing_n civil_a as_o well_o as_o spiritual_a for_o if_o they_o make_v unjust_a law_n in_o civil_a thing_n the_o case_n be_v the_o same_o with_o their_o unjust_a law_n about_o spiritual_n therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v conclude_v as_o the_o fundamental_a maxim_n of_o civil_a government_n that_o whatever_o may_v be_v do_v lawful_o and_o without_o sin_n aught_o to_o be_v do_v when_o the_o supreme_a civil_a authority_n command_v it_o and_o that_o the_o subject_n ought_v to_o obey_v second_o whosoever_o be_v empower_v by_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n to_o execute_v this_o their_o supreme_a authority_n have_v a_o full_a right_n and_o title_n to_o apply_v that_o power_n so_o give_v or_o commit_v to_o he_o have_v the_o execution_n of_o that_o law_n put_v in_o his_o hand_n

and_o usurper_n and_o the_o success_n they_o have_v in_o it_o do_v no_o more_o justify_v that_o force_n than_o a_o robber_n do_v his_o title_n to_o good_n unjust_o take_v and_o although_o some_o weak_a prince_n in_o hard_a time_n do_v yield_v it_o up_o to_o the_o pope_n yet_o both_o the_o clergy_n themselves_o and_o the_o parliament_n do_v often_o assert_v their_o own_o authority_n which_o be_v most_o eminent_o do_v by_o king_n edward_n the_o first_o and_o king_n edward_z the_o three_o so_o that_o the_o pope_n power_n here_o have_v no_o just_a title_n but_o be_v a_o violent_a invasion_n

the_o prince_n and_o state_n of_o europe_n and_o that_o they_o have_v no_o law_n for_o it_o in_o england_n be_v thing_n so_o certain_a that_o for_o proof_n of_o this_o i_o shall_v refer_v myself_o to_o the_o writer_n of_o their_o own_o church_n de_fw-fr marca_n launoy_n and_o balusius_n with_o many_o other_o and_o at_o this_o very_a day_n the_o pope_n have_v neither_o more_o nor_o less_o

archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n much_o less_o authority_n to_o give_v he_o jurisdiction_n over_o himself_o and_o all_o the_o other_o bishop_n of_o the_o land_n because_o none_o can_v give_v what_o he_o

first_o do_v he_o believe_v himself_o when_o he_o say_v that_o none_o can_v install_v a_o bishop_n in_o a_o jurisdiction_n above_o himself_o pray_v then_o who_o invest_v the_o pope_n with_o their_o

the_o cardinal_n do_v it_o and_o be_v not_o they_o as_o much_o the_o pope_n suffragans_fw-la as_o hodgskins_n be_v canterburi●…_n so_o that_o if_o inferior_n can_v invest_v one_o with_o a_o superior_a
