to_o prove_v that_o the_o pope_n can_v err_v but_o every_o body_n may_v see_v by_o his_o doubtful_a set_n it_o down_o that_o he_o can_v well_o tell_v what_o to_o affirm_v of_o it_o for_o he_o will_v not_o consent_v with_o such_o romish_a catholic_n as_o teach_v that_o the_o pope_n may_v err_v and_o also_o teach_v heresy_n if_o he_o define_v any_o thing_n out_o of_o a_o council_n 2._o and_o he_o

any_o thing_n but_o master_n bellarmine_n will_v walk_v in_o a_o middle_a path_n which_o be_v this_o that_o whither_o the_o pope_n may_v be_v a_o heretic_n or_o not_o he_o can_v set_v down_o any_o

in_o this_o question_n but_o because_o he_o be_v perchance_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n especial_o in_o the_o five_o chapter_n of_o a_o more_o resolute_a opinion_n i_o urge_v not_o this_o point_n any_o further_o but_o this_o be_v his_o flat_a resolution_n 3_o that_o when_o the_o pope_n teach_v the_o whole_a church_n he_o can_v err_v by_o any_o mean_n in_o the_o thing_n belong_v to_o faith_n no_o neither_o yet_o in_o precept_n of_o manner_n 5_o which_o be_v prescribe_v to_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o which_o be_v of_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n or_o for_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v of_o themselves_o good_a or_o evil_n further_o also_o he_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v provable_a and_o may_v godly_o be_v believe_v for_o i_o set_v down_o his_o word_n that_o he_o can_v not_o

it_o appear_v plain_o that_o master_n bellarmine_n hold_v that_o the_o pope_n can_v neither_o err_v at_o all_o in_o faith_n or_o precept_n of_o manner_n as_o he_o teach_v the_o whole_a church_n neither_o can_v he_o be_v a_o obstinate_a heretic_n as_o he_o be_v but_o a_o private_a man_n not_o consider_v he_o as_o pope_n against_o which_o doctrine_n i_o brief_o oppose_v 2._o or_o 3._o argument_n the_o first_o be_v that_o which_o immediate_o before_o i_o touch_v he_o may_v sin_v they_o deny_v it_o not_o 1._o therefore_o he_o may_v also_o fall_v into_o heresy_n which_o thus_o i_o prove_v the_o selfsame_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n sanctify_v be_v also_o the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n as_o powerful_a to_o work_v the_o one_o effect_n as_o the_o other_o and_o he_o that_o pray_v not_o for_o peter_n alone_o but_o for_o all_o the_o apostle_n that_o their_o faith_n shall_v not_o fail_v although_o the_o word_n satan_n desire_v to_o sift_v you_o be_v direct_v to_o peter_n as_o to_o one_o perchance_o bold_a than_o the_o rest_n and_o proud_a of_o the_o promise_n that_o be_v make_v to_o keep_v he_o under_o as_o theoph._n write_v even_o he_o i_o say_v pray_v also_o for_o all_o unto_o his_o father_n 5._o that_o he_o will_v sanctify_v they_o with_o his_o truth_n the_o same_o father_n also_o from_o who_o must_v come_v the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n will_v as_o david_n assure_v we_o guide_v the_o humble_a in_o his_o way_n which_o thing_n the_o same_o prophet_n often_o pray_v for_o because_o of_o ourselves_o we_o be_v not_o sufficient_a so_o much_o as_o to_o think_v a_o good_a thought_n but_o our_o sufficiency_n be_v of_o god_n and_o why_o do_v god_n spirit_n lighten_v our_o heart_n and_o instruct_v our_o conscience_n if_o not_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v fruitful_a in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n yea_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v not_o work_v in_o we_o any_o knowledge_n according_a to_o that_o promise_n the_o

of_o knowledge_n as_o if_o they_o be_v whole_o lead_v by_o god_n spirit_n whereas_o many_o of_o they_o have_v whole_o wander_v out_o of_o the_o way_n of_o godly_a life_n as_o man_n nothing_o guide_v but_o quite_o forsake_v of_o that_o holy_a ghost_n and_o therefore_o this_o i_o suppose_v may_v serve_v for_o my_o first_o argument_n such_o as_o be_v not_o lead_v by_o god_n spirit_n to_o live_v

by_o the_o same_o and_o by_o consequent_a they_o may_v err_v for_o they_o have_v no_o colour_n of_o not_o err_v but_o that_o only_a that_o they_o claim_v the_o direction_n of_o that_o spirit_n that_o be_v never_o promise_v to_o such_o profane_a prelate_n nor_o can_v lodge_v in_o such_o sink_v of_o sin_n my_o second_o argument_n be_v this_o pope_n adrian_n the_o sixth_o do_v teach_v err_v that_o the_o pope_n may_v be_v a_o heretic_n and_o teach_v heresy_n and_o this_o doctrine_n be_v defendet_fw-la by_o he_o and_o other_o 2._o as_o master_n bellarmine_n himself_o confess_v so_o that_o he_o will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v believe_v of_o all_o and_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o question_n of_o faith_n especial_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n whether_o the_o pope_n may_v err_v or_o not_o thus_o than_o i_o reason_n adrian_z the_o sixth_o pope_n of_o that_o name_n do_v either_o say_v that_o which_o be_v false_a or_o that_o which_o be_v true_a if_o he_o say_v false_a than_o he_o be_v a_o pope_n be_v deceive_v in_o judgement_n in_o a_o matter_n of_o faith_n and_o such_o a_o matter_n as_o he_o will_v shall_v be_v receive_v universal_o as_o a_o catholic_a doctrine_n and_o so_o the_o pope_n have_v err_v if_o he_o say_v true_a then_o be_v it_o also_o evict_v by_o his_o testimony_n that_o the_o pope_n may_v err_v for_o he_o affirm_v it_o so_o so_o that_o whether_o he_o lie_v or_o speak_v the_o truth_n it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o prove_v that_o which_o i_o endeavour_n to_o prove_v for_o if_o he_o lie_v himself_o err_v if_o he_o say_v true_a other_o may_v err_v the_o third_o argument_n shall_v be_v of_o the_o example_n of_o such_o as_o do_v err_v err_v i_o say_v of_o such_o bishop_n of_o rome_n as_o have_v be_v by_o their_o own_o story_n pontificali_fw-la note_v for_o heretic_n i_o will_v not_o speak_v any_o thing_n of_o pope_n marcellinus_n who_o sacrifice_v to_o idol_n as_o also_o story_n do_v testify_v because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o repent_v he_o thereof_o but_o yet_o we_o may_v learn_v out_o of_o he_o that_o if_o a_o pope_n may_v fall_v to_o such_o frailty_n as_o to_o commit_v so_o gross_a idolatry_n which_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n then_o to_o fall_v into_o many_o of_o the_o heresy_n that_o be_v condemn_v by_o that_o name_n of_o the_o father_n he_o may_v also_o err_v
he_o church_n at_o their_o good_a leisure_n to_o answer_v no_o invisible_a body_n can_v have_v a_o visible_a head_n for_o that_o be_v a_o monster_n in_o nature_n but_o the_o universal_a or_o

catholic_a church_n must_v not_o have_v a_o visible_a head_n but_o all_o this_o that_o master_n bellarmine_n have_v hitherto_o speak_v of_o the_o necessity_n of_o have_v one_o supreme_a governor_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n be_v rather_o a_o inducement_n to_o make_v man_n think_v that_o they_o have_v some_o reason_n for_o this_o supremacy_n in_o the_o church_n than_o any_o strong_a argument_n whereby_o they_o think_v to_o carry_v away_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o matter_n but_o the_o very_a strength_n and_o stay_v of_o this_o their_o doctrine_n be_v contain_v in_o this_o one_o syliogisme_n

unto_o peter_n jurisdiction_n over_o the_o universal_a church_n and_o not_o to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n therefore_o the_o bishop_n or_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v jurisdiction_n over_o
