it_o and_o it_o be_v seldom_o hear_v of_o for_o all_o the_o industry_n and_o subtlety_n of_o rome_n that_o any_o prince_n or_o state_n do_v voluntary_o turn_n papist_n that_o be_v once_o deliver_v from_o the_o yoke_n and_o that_o ever_o again_o part_v with_o his_o power_n when_o he_o have_v recover_v it_o but_o yet_o that_o even_o this_o argument_n from_o notorious_a interest_n do_v not_o recover_v the_o liberty_n of_o country_n subject_n to_o the_o pope_n you_o will_v the_o less_o wonder_n if_o you_o consider_v these_o three_o thing_n 1._o that_o the_o papal_a interest_n have_v get_v such_o root_n in_o their_o subject_n mind_n that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o their_o power_n to_o reassume_v their_o right_n the_o clergy_n be_v so_o numerous_a subtle_a ubiquitary_a and_o potent_a and_o the_o people_n so_o common_o deceive_v and_o so_o tenacious_a of_o ancient_a custom_n that_o to_o make_v this_o change_n may_v cast_v all_o into_o a_o flame_n and_o they_o think_v it_o better_a to_o lose_v part_n than_o all_o and_o no_o doubt_n but_o the_o example_n of_o henry_n the_o three_o and_o henry_n the_o four_o of_o france_n make_v some_o think_v that_o if_o they_o displease_v the_o pope_n and_o his_o confederates_n they_o have_v not_o sufficient_a security_n for_o their_o life_n 2._o and_o prince_n stand_v usual_o on_o such_o term_n of_o danger_n or_o jealousy_n from_o one_o another_o that_o they_o be_v fain_o to_o keep_v such_o a_o peace_n at_o home_n lest_o they_o expose_v themselves_o to_o a_o great_a mischief_n from_o abroad_o and_o they_o be_v break_v by_o the_o papal_a subtlety_n especial_o in_o germany_n and_o italy_n into_o such_o fraction_n and_o petty_a principality_n that_o few_o of_o they_o be_v strong_a enough_o to_o defend_v themselves_o against_o the_o confederate_n of_o the_o pope_n when_o potent_a emperor_n heretofore_o can_v not_o do_v it_o and_o many_o of_o they_o especial_o the_o house_n of_o austria_n do_v take_v this_o copartnership_n of_o the_o pope_n to_o be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o their_o strength_n and_o as_o ancient_o many_o emperor_n be_v force_v to_o choose_v their_o caesar_n and_o copartner_n when_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o empire_n be_v too_o hard_o for_o themselves_o alone_o so_o divers_a prince_n be_v glad_a to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o papal_a interest_n and_o power_n for_o their_o own_o security_n though_o upon_o term_n that_o else_o will_v never_o be_v submit_v to_o and_o in_o some_o country_n the_o rebellious_a disposition_n of_o the_o subject_n drive_v they_o to_o accept_v of_o this_o dear_a remedy_n and_o they_o choose_v rather_o to_o strengthen_v themselves_o by_o a_o copartner_n than_o to_o stoop_v to_o the_o will_n of_o their_o inferior_n for_o here_o you_o must_v take_v notice_n that_o the_o pretence_n of_o a_o jus_fw-la divinum_fw-la and_o of_o spirituality_n and_o the_o interest_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o safety_n of_o their_o soul_n do_v make_v this_o kind_n of_o servitude_n much_o less_o dishonourable_a than_o it_o be_v to_o be_v overtop_v by_o a_o neighbour_n prince_n or_o to_o be_v curb_v by_o their_o subject_n for_o what_o dishonour_n be_v it_o for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o his_o maker_n and_o redeemer_n nay_o what_o great_a honour_n can_v there_o be_v and_o the_o roman_a clergy_n have_v use_v themselves_o to_o canonize_v those_o prince_n that_o have_v be_v most_o zealous_a for_o their_o grandeur_n and_o to_o raise_v the_o fame_n and_o praise_n of_o such_o as_o have_v raise_v that_o which_o they_o call_v the_o church_n that_o the_o very_a ambition_n of_o the_o clergy_n praise_n do_v do_v much_o to_o tempt_v some_o to_o a_o tame_a acceptance_n of_o a_o copartner_n who_o pretend_v to_o be_v the_o vicar_n of_o christ_n when_o this_o servitude_n go_v for_o sanctity_n and_o carry_v not_o with_o it_o the_o reproach_n of_o other_o sort_n of_o servitude_n 3._o and_o it_o great_o further_v their_o success_n that_o the_o pope_n agent_n be_v common_o breed_v up_o in_o learning_n and_o so_o be_v make_v able_a to_o over-wit_n the_o laity_n and_o that_o it_o be_v their_o great_a design_n to_o gratify_v the_o lust_n of_o prince_n by_o indulge_v their_o voluptuous_a sensual_a life_n that_o so_o they_o may_v spend_v their_o day_n in_o such_o thing_n as_o will_v never_o advance_v their_o understanding_n to_o a_o ability_n to_o discern_v the_o cheat_n of_o their_o copartner_n and_o they_o detestable_o cherish_v the_o ignorance_n of_o the_o common_a laity_n that_o they_o may_v be_v the_o fit_a to_o be_v lead_v and_o master_v by_o they_o even_o as_o man_n keep_v woman_n from_o learning_n and_o great_a attainment_n lest_o they_o shall_v be_v the_o more_o uncapable_a of_o subjection_n and_o thus_o as_o satan_n lead_v man_n to_o hell_n so_o the_o papal_a usurper_n bring_v the_o laity_n into_o their_o power_n by_o their_o own_o consent_n by_o such_o please_a bait_n as_o make_v their_o servitude_n easy_a to_o they_o and_o it_o be_v not_o your_o tell_v they_o of_o their_o interest_n that_o will_v prevail_v against_o all_o these_o temptation_n they_o that_o will_v lose_v heaven_n and_o their_o salvation_n by_o such_o

and_o pleasure_n in_o the_o world_n the_o roman_a usurpation_n consist_v of_o two_o part_n 1._o the_o usurpation_n of_o such_o a_o pastoral_n power_n as_o they_o have_v no_o right_n to_o 2._o the_o

of_o the_o false_a name_n of_o church_n power_n put_v upon_o the_o magistrate_n part_n of_o church_n government_n as_o if_o it_o be_v the_o clergy_n part_n i._o the_o usurpation_n of_o a_o pastoral_n power_n which_o belong_v not_o to_o they_o be_v the_o chief_a part_n of_o their_o iniquity_n and_o it_o consist_v in_o these_o among_o other_o particular_n 1._o in_o the_o impious_a and_o arrogant_a claim_n of_o a_o universal_a pastorship_n over_o all_o the_o world_n the_o roman_a prelate_n must_v be_v the_o teacher_n of_o all_o the_o world_n the_o high_a priest_n of_o all_o the_o world_n and_o the_o spiritual_a ruler_n of_o all_o the_o world_n which_o because_o he_o can_v do_v by_o himself_o he_o must_v do_v by_o other_o as_o far_o as_o he_o can_v to_o uphold_v his_o usurpation_n he_o

to_o be_v a_o bishop_n in_o other_o man_n diocese_n and_o to_o rule_v in_o all_o matter_n where_o he_o have_v no_o more_o power_n than_o any_o pastor_n have_v in_o another_o pastoral_n charge_n 3._o and_o by_o this_o he_o undertake_v to_o be_v the_o spiritual_a father_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o the_o king_n and_o ruler_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n and_o so_o to_o have_v the_o power_n of_o

6._o by_o this_o he_o send_v forth_o his_o missionary_n and_o set_v up_o society_n of_o jesuit_n and_o friar_n to_o do_v his_o work_n and_o command_v all_o prince_n and_o people_n to_o receive_v and_o

pray_v for_o the_o dead_a as_o be_v in_o purgatory_n and_o by_o this_o he_o set_v up_o his_o whole_a new_a frame_n of_o self-devised_n worship_n
and_o religion_n now_o i_o call_v not_o all_o this_o a_o usurpation_n of_o magistracy_n so_o far_o as_o he_o use_v no_o corporal_a force_n and_o threaten_v no_o penalty_n but_o excommunication_n and_o

to_o be_v cast_v out_o as_o impenitent_a by_o excommunication_n in_o his_o own_o particular_a charge_n or_o society_n and_o if_o the_o pope_n usurp_v a_o power_n of_o do_v all_o this_o and_o more_o
