constance_n and_o basil_n err_v in_o put_v the_o council_n above_o the_o pope_n and_o so_o do_v the_o french_a church_n anno_fw-la 1682._o sect_n 66._o without_o doubt_v either_o the_o second_o nicene_n council_n err_v in_o decree_a the_o worship_n of_o image_n or_o the_o general_a council_n of_o constantinople_n and_o francfort_n at_o which_o last_o there_o be_v 300_o prelate_n and_o the_o pope_n legate_n err_v in_o decree_v the_o contrary_a sure_o pope_n vigilius_n err_v in_o confirm_v the_o five_o general_n council_n or_o else_o he_o err_v afterward_o in_o condemn_v it_o and_o so_o do_v pope_n adrian_n and_o the_o six_o general_n council_n when_o they_o define_v that_o marriage_n be_v dissolve_v by_o heresy_n or_o else_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n err_v in_o define_v the_o

be_v enough_o to_o prove_v that_o a_o pope_n and_o general_n council_n be_v not_o infallible_a for_z they_o have_v actual_o err_v and_o no_o argument_n like_o matter_n of_o fact_n and_o sure_o the_o french_a be_v of_o this_o opinion_n else_o why_o do_v they_o refuse_v to_o receive_v the_o council_n of_o trent_n nay_o our_o forefather_n be_v of_o this_o opinion_n for_o the_o cannon_n of_o general_a council_n be_v not_o of_o force_n in_o england_n but_o such_o as_o the_o government_n be_v please_v to_o receive_v and_o thereby_o give_v they_o the_o sanction_n of_o law_n sect_n 68_o but_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o matter_n more_o artificial_a to_o be_v consider_v and_o that_o be_v that_o some_o general_a council_n be_v in_o part_n approved_n and_z in_o part_n reprobate_v as_o if_o they_o shall_v say_v the_o council_n be_v assist_v part_n of_o the_o way_n and_o then_o leave_v in_o the_o lurch_n if_o they_o think_v such_o a_o general_n council_n be_v not_o divine_o inspire_a how_o dare_v they_o impose_v any_o of_o its_o decree_n on_o the_o church_n as_o matter_n of_o faith_n divine_o reveal_v if_o the_o council_n be_v divine_o inspire_a why_o do_v they_o reprobate_a or_o reject_v any_o of_o its_o decree_n be_v not_o this_o plain_o to_o make_v use_n of_o what_o serve_v their_o purpose_n and_z to_o discountenance_n how_o unjust_o soever_o every_o thing_n that_o make_v against_o their_o usurpation_n sect_n 69._o but_o it_o be_v yet_o worse_a if_o the_o canon_n of_o any_o council_n have_v be_v reject_v by_o one_o pope_n and_o afterward_o approve_v by_o another_o for_o this_o be_v to_o hold_v thè_z faith_n in_o respect_n of_o time_n as_o well_o as_o person_n and_o to_o insinuate_v that_o the_o same_o doctrine_n that_o be_v false_a to_o day_n may_v be_v true_a to_o morrow_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o 102_o canon_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trullo_n or_o constantinople_n be_v reject_v by_o pope_n sergius_n 1_o and_o afterward_o many_o of_o they_o and_z particular_o the_o 82d_o canon_n be_v receive_v by_o pope_n adrian_n 1._o and_o the_o seven_o synod_n and_o now_o allow_v by_o the_o romish_a church_n sect._n 70._o but_o i_o promise_v to_o

71._o it_o be_v needless_a to_o say_v it_o be_v false_a because_o your_o sense_n demonstrate_v it_o to_o be_v so_o it_o involve_v a_o thousand_o contradiction_n and_o consequent_o s●_n many_o lie_n
