parker_n day_n 16._o present_o you_o add_v that_o t._n s._n dare_v not_o profess_v open_o that_o they_o receive_v their_o commission_n from_o popish_a bishop_n of_o k._n henry_n viii_n time_n ans._n true_a because_o he_o dare_v not_o speak_v a_o falsity_n for_o they_o receive_v it_o in_o the_o time_n of_o edw._n vi_o though_o what_o you_o suppose_v have_v be_v no_o impossible_a thing_n since_o good_a protestant_n in_o the_o day_n of_o edw._n vi_o have_v receive_v valid_a baptism_n as_o all_o man_n do_v acknowledge_v in_o henry_n the_o eight_o reign_n 17._o in_o answer_n to_o the_o rest_n of_o this_o be_v please_v to_o know_v that_o the_o ancient_a church_n believe_v contrary_a to_o your_o popish_a novelty_n that_o all_o bishop_n have_v spiritual_a jurisdiction_n as_o be_v successor_n to_o the_o apostle_n and_o it_o be_v only_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o pope_n to_o deny_v it_o who_o be_v wont_a to_o make_v titular_a bishop_n without_o jurisdiction_n to_o serve_v himself_o in_o

ecclesiastical_a superior_n who_o then_o be_v over_o they_o to_o make_v bishop_n in_o the_o diocese_n of_o london_n and_o that_o bonner_n be_v not_o their_o superior_a 19_o to_o what_o you_o speak_v at_o large_a of_o q._n elizabeth_n be_v a_o lay-person_n and_o not_o be_v able_a to_o give_v any_o power_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v what_o power_n that_o queen_n have_v and_o aught_o to_o have_v

church_n beyond_o our_o sea_n who_o count_v it_o their_o glory_n to_o want_v a_o succession_n of_o bishop_n yea_o to_o cry_n shame_n upon_o it_o and_o to_o reject_v it_o as_o a_o superstitious_a

of_o abjuration_n be_v in_o my_o opinion_n answer_v sufficient_o till_o it_o be_v prove_v by_o a_o bare_a negation_n though_o some_o of_o they_o have_v much_o more_o cause_n to_o refuse_v it_o than_o you_o who_o have_v take_v away_o the_o former_a trial_n of_o popery_n viz._n recusancy_n common_a by_o the_o law_n to_o papist_n anabaptist_n and_o other_o sectary_n which_o name_n i_o hope_v you_o

you_o may_v not_o safe_o affirm_v that_o to_o be_v true_a which_o be_v your_o opinion_n in_o any_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o not_o expect_v that_o any_o caviller_n who_o stand_v by_o and_o be_v

i_o shall_v enlarge_v upon_o this_o your_o acception_n of_o the_o word_n believe_v but_o that_o mr._n chillingworth_n have_v say_v enough_o of_o it_o in_o his_o answer_n to_o your_o brother_n knot_n

in_o scripture_n or_o no_o you_o seem_v here_o plain_o to_o profess_v that_o you_o do_v not_o know_v whether_o papist_n or_o protestant_n be_v in_o the_o right_a so_o far_o as_o to_o god_n revelation_n in_o scripture_n which_o protestant_n have_v always_o make_v their_o rule_n by_o which_o we_o may_v judge_v what_o a_o protestant_a you_o be_v and_o that_o anabaptist_n either_o deny_v

tell_v you_o that_o no_o parliament_n be_v in_o any_o sense_n that_o which_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o word_n person_n but_o i_o rather_o answer_v that_o no_o parliament_n can_v free_v any_o person_n from_o any_o oath_n of_o belief_n which_o he_o have_v take_v for_o example_n if_o one_o parliament_n propound_v a_o

oath_n to_o i_o to_o declare_v whether_o i_o think_v the_o article_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n be_v orthodox_a and_o catholic_n and_o i_o swear_v no_o from_o this_o oath_n ten_o thousand_o parliament_n can_v never_o absolve_v i_o if_o i_o swear_v in_o truth_n i_o need_v no_o absolution_n but_o if_o i_o therein_o forswear_v myself_o the_o parliament_n can_v not_o free_v i_o from_o

assume_v power_n of_o set_v man_n at_o liberty_n from_o believe_v what_o they_o believe_v in_o matter_n of_o religion_n i_o grant_v that_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n may_v be_v repeal_v by_o a_o parliament_n and_o so_o the_o law_n of_o exact_v this_o oath_n may_v be_v abrogate_a but_o that_o a_o oath_n take_v concerning_o matter_n of_o belief_n or_o not_o belief_n can_v be_v void_v by_o any_o
