other_o that_o clergy_n man_n shall_v not_o seek_v the_o preservation_n of_o the_o church_n otherwise_o than_o by_o spiritual_a arm_n but_o by_o this_o discourse_n or_o any_o other_o i_o can_v

more_o to_o bind_v the_o ecclesiastical_a person_n than_o the_o magistrate_n but_o that_o which_o i_o have_v discourse_v to_o you_o how_o the_o church_n from_o adam_n to_o christ_n never_o use_v the_o

have_v the_o right_n of_o magistracy_n over_o they_o as_o already_o have_v be_v note_v notwithstanding_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o treat_v more_o particular_o touch_v this_o power_n of_o the_o magistrate_n over_o heretic_n and_o infidel_n but_o first_o i_o take_v it_o for_o confess_v that_o our_o ecclesiastical_a person_n be_v guilty_a of_o great_a error_n and_o enormity_n at_o this_o

and_o fury_n as_o the_o most_o barbarous_a secular_o can_v show_v proceed_v we_o then_o to_o the_o power_n of_o the_o magistrate_n first_o the_o reform_a will_v answer_v you_o for_o their_o book_n &_o action_n approve_v that_o such_o be_v their_o doctrine_n and_o discipline_n how_o the_o magistrate_n have_v a_o just_a &_o lawful_a vocation_n from_o god_n to_o condemn_v and_o put_v to_o death_n the_o heretic_n and_o schismatic_n and_o that_o if_o he_o neglect_v or_o refuse_v to_o execute_v this_o his_o duty_n be_v able_a to_o perform_v the_o same_o he_o than_o misregard_v and_o offend_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o his_o own_o call_n and_o deserve_v blame_v and_o punishment_n but_o withal_o they_o affirm_v and_o maintain_v that_o before_o the_o magistrate_n proceed_v to_o such_o execution_n he_o must_v patient_o hear_v they_o that_o be_v suspect_v of_o heresy_n or_o schism_n they_o must_v cause_v they_o to_o be_v convince_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o holy_a assure_v

only_o lawful_a but_o also_o necessary_a to_o deliver_v they_o over_o to_o death_n they_o affirm_v also_o that_o as_o for_o themselves_o they_o be_v never_o call_v nor_o hear_v in_o a_o counsel_n free_a and_o assure_v for_o they_o they_o have_v not_o be_v convince_v by_o holy_a scripture_n that_o when_o you_o call_v they_o it_o be_v only_o to_o hear_v their_o condemnation_n the_o judge_n to_o who_o you_o send_v they_o be_v deaf_a and_o trust_v rather_o to_o loud_a clamour_n than_o sound_a argument_n again_o that_o when_o you_o have_v confer_v with_o they_o you_o have_v make_v exception_n
