for_o mark_v i_o pray_v you_o his_o second_o argument_n in_o the_o first_o part_n thereof_o he_o argue_v thus_o the_o power_n to_o use_v and_o dispose_v of_o temporall_n and_o consequent_o of_o the_o

the_o church_n of_o christ_n whereof_o the_o pope_n be_v head_n for_o of_o this_o no_o catholic_a make_v any_o doubt_n but_o also_o that_o the_o temporal_a &_o spiritual_a power_n themselves_o or_o

which_o he_o do_v not_o sufficient_o confute_v in_o his_o reply_v 5._o the_o first_o reason_n be_v for_o the_o order_n of_o charity_n by_o which_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o prefer_v great_a good_n before_o lesser_a to_o the_o reply_n which_o card._n bellarmine_n make_v to_o the_o contrary_a i_o answer_v thus_o that_o although_o for_o the_o order_n of_o charity_n one_o common_a wealth_n be_v

to_o one_o prince_n or_o that_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o less_o noble_a common_a wealth_n be_v also_o a_o subject_n of_o the_o more_o noble_a than_o that_o prince_n be_v bind_v for_o order_n of_o

of_o the_o less_o noble_a not_o by_o reason_n of_o any_o subjection_n of_o one_o common_a wealth_n to_o the_o other_o but_o because_o both_o commonwealth_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o same_o prince_n

they_o do_v make_v one_o total_a body_n or_o commonwealth_n as_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n do_v make_v one_o man_n and_o consequent_o the_o temporal_a power_n must_v be_v subject_a to_o the_o

of_o it_o own_o nature_n subject_a to_o the_o ecclesiastical_a or_o that_o the_o church_n have_v by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n any_o power_n to_o use_v the_o material_a sword_n even_o in_o order_n to_o

compel_v they_o thereunto_o in_o defence_n of_o their_o holy_a mother_n the_o church_n to_o use_v the_o temporal_a sword_n wherefore_o although_o the_o church_n when_o she_o have_v present_a need_n have_v power_n to_o command_v or_o forbid_v the_o use_n of_o the_o material_a sword_n or_o rather_o without_o any_o positive_a or_o constitutive_a command_n of_o the_o church_n secular_a prince_n be_v

that_o to_o command_v the_o use_n thereof_o and_o to_o use_v it_o herself_o be_v far_o different_a thing_n as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o 99_o before_o num._n 99_o yea_o and_o the_o very_a word_n of_o s._n bernard_n do_v plain_o show_v as_o much_o for_o otherwise_o if_o the_o church_n that_o be_v as_o she_o consist_v of_o ecclesiastical_a power_n shall_v have_v the_o dominion_n of_o the_o

which_o card_n bellarmine_n himself_o gather_v from_o those_o word_n of_o s._n bernard_n who_o in_o this_o very_a place_n as_o you_o have_v see_v do_v affirm_v that_o s._n bernard_n and_o pope_n

according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o s._n bernard_n do_v belong_v to_o the_o pope_n and_o be_v call_v his_o sword_n for_o that_o when_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o church_n do_v require_v it_o be_v

sovereign_n and_o to_o resist_v any_o such_o sentence_n of_o excommunication_n or_o deprivation_n 64_o the_o reason_n wherefore_o i_o affirm_v that_o catholic_n may_v with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n adhere_v to_o his_o majesty_n and_o resist_v the_o pope_n sentence_n of_o deprivation_n be_v for_o that_o it_o be_v a_o probable_a opinion_n and_o which_o with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n and_o without_o danger_n of_o heresy_n error_n or_o temeritie_n may_v be_v embrace_v by_o catholic_n that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o authority_n to_o depose_v prince_n nor_o to_o inflict_v any_o temporal_a

the_o whole_a substance_n of_o the_o oath_n the_o first_o be_v that_o any_o catholic_a may_v lawful_o and_o with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n declare_v testify_v and_o acknowledge_v before_o god_n and_o in_o his_o conscience_n that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o power_n to_o depose_v his_o majesty_n nor_o to_o dispose_v of_o any_o his_o kingdom_n or_o dominion_n and_o so_o of_o the_o other_o clause_n which_o do_v follow_v from_o this_o doctrine_n and_o my_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o the_o doctrine_n for_o the_o pope_n power_n to_o depose_v prince_n i_o will_v not_o say_v at_o this_o present_a be_v a_o false_a doctrine_n and_o repugnant_a to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o to_o the_o ancient_a father_n but_o it_o be_v not_o certain_a and_o a_o point_n of_o faith_n as_o master_n fitzherbert_n and_o some_o other_o of_o his_o company_n will_v needs_o have_v it_o to_o be_v and_o the_o contrary_n be_v probable_a and_o consequent_o may_v with_o a_o safe_a and_o probable_a conscience_n be_v acknowledge_v and_o maintain_v by_o any_o catholic_a but_o whether_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o pope_n have_v power_n to_o depose_v prince_n or_o no_o i_o do_v not_o at_o this_o present_a dispute_n neither_o do_v i_o either_o grant_v it_o or_o deny_v it_o or_o meddle_v at_o all_o therewith_o as_o be_v unnecessary_a to_o prove_v the_o oath_n to_o be_v lawful_a that_o which_o i_o affirm_v at_o this_o time_n be_v that_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o such_o power_n let_v we_o first_o agree_v about_o this_o point_n that_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o such_o power_n and_o then_o we_o will_v dispute_v how_o probable_a it_o be_v that_o he_o have_v such_o a_o power_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n all_o mr._n fitzherbert_n

my_o adversary_n will_v not_o grant_v to_o be_v so_o much_o as_o probable_a 137._o the_o second_o thing_n which_o touch_v practice_n i_o do_v affirm_v be_v that_o this_o doctrine_n and_o position_n that_o prince_n which_o be_v excommunicate_v or_o deprive_v by_o the_o pope_n may_v be_v depose_v by_o their_o subject_n or_o any_o other_o to_o omit_v now_o the_o word_n murder_a be_v a_o impious_a

contain_v in_o the_o oath_n be_v abjure_v alike_o and_o whether_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n that_o the_o depose_n and_o murder_v of_o prince_n shall_v be_v abjure_v alike_o i_o have_v sufficient_o declare_v before_o whereby_o it_o may_v also_o appear_v that_o my_o doctrine_n bring_v no_o danger_n at_o all_o to_o his_o majesty_n as_o that_o of_o my_o adversary_n do_v but_o give_v

we_o treat_v for_o no_o man_n can_v with_o safe_a conscience_n abjure_v as_o impious_a and_o heretical_a any_o opinion_n which_o he_o hould_v to_o be_v probable_a as_o widdrington_n grant_v our_o

oath_n whereof_o we_o treat_v for_o any_o man_n may_v with_o safe_a conscience_n abjure_v as_o impious_a and_o heretical_a that_o doctrine_n and_o position_n which_o be_v true_o as_o impious_a and_o

to_o be_v abhor_v detest_a and_o abjure_v so_o from_o their_o heart_n as_o i_o have_v clear_o prove_v before_o and_o as_o for_o the_o speculative_a doctrine_n of_o depose_v prince_n i_o neither_o

140_o last_o i_o conclude_v say_v m._n fitzherbert_n 32._o fitzherbert_n nu_fw-la 32._o that_o albeit_o there_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n in_o the_o oath_n to_o make_v it_o unlawful_a yet_o this_o only_a clause_n may_v suffice_v to_o do_v it_o yea_o and_o aught_o to_o move_v all_o catholic_n to_o refuse_v it_o for_o sure_o he_o must_v be_v a_o catholic_a of_o a_o strange_a conscience_n that_o can_v persuade_v himself_o to_o detest_v abjure_v and_o abhor_v from_o his_o heart_n a_o doctrine_n that_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o best_a catholic_a writer_n ancient_a and_o modern_a and_o confirm_v by_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n and_o the_o authority_n of_o diverse_a general_n and_o provincial_a counsel_n as_o experience_n have_v show_v for_o many_o hundred_o of_o year_n so_o as_o thou_o see_v good_a reader_n what_o widdrington_n gain_v by_o his_o wrangle_n see_v that_o the_o further_o he_o go_v the_o further_o he_o entangle_v himself_o still_o in_o a_o inextricable_a

point_n 141._o but_o contrariwise_o i_o conclude_v that_o this_o clause_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o make_v the_o oath_n unlawful_a or_o to_o move_v any_o catholic_a to_o refuse_v the_o same_o for_o
