the_o high_a priest_n the_o supreme_a authority_n not_o only_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o also_o even_o in_o temporal_a affair_n forasmuch_o as_o concern_v the_o decision_n of_o doubt_n and_o

old_a law_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o 56._o follow_v thereon_o that_o they_o be_v so_o now_o also_o in_o the_o new_a law_n as_o well_o because_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n at_o least_o the_o judicial_a and_o ceremonial_a part_n thereof_o be_v whole_o abrogate_a by_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n as_o also_o because_o our_o saviour_n ordain_v a_o new_a and_o far_o more_o excellent_a priesthood_n &_o manner_n of_o government_n in_o his_o church_n which_o beginning_n in_o the_o apostle_n and_o spiritual_a pastor_n be_v continue_v also_o most_o evident_o in_o they_o for_o 300_o year_n without_o interruption_n to_o wit_n during_o the_o paganism_n of_o the_o emperor_n and_o no_o new_a commission_n ever_o since_o that_o time_n know_v to_o be_v give_v by_o christ_n to_o king_n whereby_o they_o be_v authorize_v to_o take_v upon_o they_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n 44._o so_o that_o i_o be_o to_o demand_v of_o m._n andrews_n as_o i_o also_o do_v of_o m._n barlow_n in_o my_o church_n supplement_n how_o and_o by_o what_o commission_n the_o supreme_a authority_n in_o ecclesiastical_a affair_n be_v transfer_v from_o the_o apostle_n and_o their_o successor_n to_o king_n after_o they_o be_v christen_v see_v that_o they_o can_v neither_o claim_v any_o succession_n therein_o from_o the_o king_n of_o the_o old_a law_n which_o as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v quite_o abrogate_a by_o christ_n nor_o pretend_v any_o new_a authority_n give_v they_o in_o the_o new_a law_n it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o all_o the_o text_n of_o scripture_n which_o m._n andrew_n or_o other_o of_o our_o adversary_n do_v or_o can_v allege_v for_o the_o spiritual_a supremacy_n of_o temporal_a king_n out_o of_o the_o new_a testament_n do_v ordain_v obedience_n to_o the_o pagan_a prince_n that_o the_o reign_v no_o less_o then_o to_o other_o which_o therefore_o can_v be_v understand_v to_o concern_v spiritual_a matter_n and_o much_o less_o to_o make_v they_o head_n of_o the_o church_n except_o m._n andrew_n will_v be_v so_o absurd_a to_o say_v that_o the_o most_o wicked_a emperor_n tiberius_n caius_n claudius_n and_o nero_n be_v head_n or_o supreme_a governor_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o they_o can_v command_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v obey_v in_o spiritual_a and_o ecclesiastical_a affair_n 45._o now_o then_o see_v m._n andrew_n neither_o bring_v nor_o be_v able_a to_o bring_v any_o other_o proof_n than_o these_o out_o of_o the_o old_a or_o new_a testament_n for_o the_o ecclesiastical_a supremacy_n of_o king_n i_o may_v well_o conclude_v that_o as_o he_o have_v

that_o the_o cardinal_n affirm_v either_o let_v m._n andrews_n tell_v we_o precise_o in_o what_o book_n or_o sermon_n since_o that_o time_n they_o have_v recall_v this_o error_n or_o else_o if_o he_o will_v needs_o say_v that_o they_o do_v it_o before_o i_o will_v turn_v he_o to_o these_o two_o for_o answer_n not_o doubt_v but_o they_o be_v able_a to_o give_v he_o full_a satisfaction_n therein_o especial_o m._n rogers_n who_o have_v pawn_v the_o credit_n of_o all_o the_o english_a clergy_n for_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o testimony_n injurious_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n i_o will_v desire_v thou_o good_a reader_n to_o consider_v whether_o m._n andrews_n can_v have_v any_o just_a cause_n or_o pretence_n to_o revile_v the_o cardinal_n and_o call_v he_o liar_n and_o dotard_n as_o he_o do_v for_o affirm_v a_o matter_n belong_v to_o our_o country_n which_o he_o find_v express_o testify_v by_o the_o great_a superintendent_n of_o our_o english_a clergy_n beside_o other_o sufficient_a reason_n move_v he_o thereto_o 81._o for_o put_v the_o case_n it_o be_v true_a as_o it_o be_v most_o false_a that_o the_o puritan_n have_v of_o late_o recant_v their_o error_n as_o m._n andrews_n term_v it_o yet_o the_o same_o have_v never_o be_v hitherto_o so_o publish_v that_o stranger_n can_v take_v notice_n thereof_o have_v m._n andrewâ—_n any_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n to_o reprehend_v and_o revyle_v any_o stranger_n for_o not_o acknowledge_v it_o be_v but_o a_o matter_n of_o fact_n which_o he_o neither_o know_v nor_o be_v bind_v to_o know_v true_o albeit_o m._n andrews_n be_v of_o a_o most_o intemperate_a tongue_n and_o malignant_a disposition_n towards_o catholykes_n as_o have_v appear_v diverse_a way_n yet_o i_o very_o think_v that_o if_o the_o weakness_n of_o his_o cause_n have_v not_o force_v he_o to_o brave_a and_o face_n it_o out_o with_o rail_v for_o lack_v of_o reason_n to_o defend_v it_o he_o will_v not_o in_o this_o case_n have_v be_v so_o immoderate_a in_o contumely_n and_o reproach_n towards_o the_o cardinal_n as_o he_o have_v be_v without_o any_o cause_n give_v of_o his_o part_n but_o herein_o he_o concur_v so_o well_o with_o his_o companion_n m._n barlow_n that_o it_o appear_v evident_o they_o be_v both_o guide_v by_o one_o spirit_n to_o conclude_v this_o point_n concern_v the_o puritan_n whereas_o m._n andrews_n say_v that_o they_o have_v of_o late_o acknowledge_v their_o error_n touch_v the_o king_n supremacy_n i_o will_v in_o the_o next_o chapter_n sequent_a make_v it_o evident_a that_o not_o they_o but_o he_o if_o he_o be_v a_o english_a protestant_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v acknowledge_v his_o error_n and_o that_o he_o be_v turn_v puritan_n in_o that_o point_n admit_v the_o king_n ecclesiastical_a supremacy_n no_o otherwise_o but_o so_o as_o they_o may_v safe_o grant_v it_o without_o change_n of_o opinion_n yea_o subscribe_v or_o swear_v to_o it_o in_o the_o same_o sense_n that_o he_o teach_v it_o and_o so_o perhaps_o such_o of_o they_o do_v as_o take_v the_o oath_n of_o supremacy_n verum_fw-la and_o this_o i_o say_v i_o make_v no_o doubt_n to_o prove_v clear_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n quod_fw-la scio_fw-la punget_fw-la doctorem_fw-la as_o he_o say_v once_o of_o the_o cardinal_n 82._o to_o these_o example_n of_o his_o egregious_a impudence_n in_o this_o kind_n i_o may_v well_o add_v one_o or_o two_o other_o example_n of_o his_o impudent_a assertion_n of_o notable_a lie_n without_o allegation_n of_o author_n or_o witness_v as_o when_o he_o charge_v certain_a jesuit_n to_o have_v affirm_v or_o as_o it_o seem_v to_o have_v write_v that_o they_o commit_v no_o sin_n abannis_fw-la jesuit_n say_v he_o nescio_fw-la quot_fw-la i_o know_v not_o for_o how_o many_o year_n together_o which_o i_o dare_v bold_o affirm_v to_o be_v a_o monstrous_a lie_n i_o mean_v that_o any_o jesuit_n have_v so_o write_v or_o say_v either_o of_o himself_o or_o any_o other_o man_n for_o although_o i_o make_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o many_o jesuit_n and_o other_o good_a man_n both_o religious_a and_o secular_a by_o the_o help_n of_o god_n grace_n do_v live_v free_a from_o all_o mortal_a sin_n that_o be_v to_o say_v such_o sin_n as_o do_v utter_o deprive_v man_n of_o god_n favour_n &_o grace_n and_o deserve_v eternal_a damnation_n yet_o i_o be_o well_o assure_v that_o no_o catholyke_n will_v say_v that_o any_o man_n live_v free_a from_o all_o sin_n such_o i_o mean_v as_o be_v call_v venial_a which_o can_v not_o be_v say_v of_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o as_o s._n john_n testify_v 1_o say_v si_fw-la dixerimus_fw-la quod_fw-la peccatum_fw-la non_fw-la habemus_fw-la etc._n etc._n if_o we_o say_v that_o we_o have_v no_o sin_n we_o seduce_v ourselves_o and_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o we_o and_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n also_o the_o scripture_n say_v else_o where_o 24._o septies_fw-la in_o die_fw-la cadet_fw-la iustus_fw-la etc._n etc._n the_o just_a man_n shall_v fall_v seven_o time_n a_o day_n and_o shall_v rise_v again_o 83._o and_o this_o be_v so_o know_v and_o firm_o believe_v of_o all_o catholykes_n that_o it_o be_v incredible_a that_o any_o one_o who_o profess_v the_o catholic_a religion_n shall_v affirm_v of_o any_o man_n and_o much_o less_o be_v so_o vain_a to_o say_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o commit_v no_o sin_n for_o some_o year_n &_o therefore_o m._n andrew_n must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a if_o we_o take_v this_o for_o a_o egregious_a lie_n until_o he_o produce_v some_o other_o author_n or_o witness_v then_o himself_o as_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o will_v have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v any_o worth_n the_o name_n or_o else_o have_v not_o perhaps_o forget_v his_o name_n as_o well_o as_o the_o number_n of_o year_n in_o which_o those_o jesuit_n commit_v no_o sin_n for_o so_o it_o appear_v by_o his_o ab_fw-la annis_fw-la nescio_fw-la quot_fw-la whereby_o we_o may_v see_v what_o substantial_a tale_n he_o tell_v we_o see_v he_o write_v either_o he_o know_v not_o or_o at_o least_o he_o care_v not_o what_o 84._o the_o like_a i_o say_v also_o of_o another_o matter_n avow_a by_o he_o with_o more_o particularity_n prison_n and_o circumstance_n to_o wit_n that_o a_o jesuit_n be_v in_o prison_n at_o the_o same_o time_n when_o he_o write_v confess_v upon_o his_o own_o accord_n without_o all_o compulsion_n fear_n or_o examination_n move_v mere_o with_o

upon_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o powder-plot_n whereupon_o he_o infer_v that_o the_o pope_n must_v needs_o be_v privy_a unto_o the_o say_a plot_n but_o for_o as_o much_o as_o i_o assure_v myself_o
