which_o be_v direct_o or_o indirect_o repugnant_a to_o scripture_n and_o in_o which_o sense_n both_o catholic_a divine_n common_o and_o also_o protestant_n and_o his_o majesty_n do_v understand_v it_o which_o sense_n nevertheless_o you_o above_o in_o the_o three_o section_n seem_v to_o disprove_v in_o those_o word_n which_o sense_n be_v not_o in_o my_o conceit_n so_o proper_a neither_o with_o we_o

now_o you_o will_v have_v the_o lawmaker_n who_o be_v protestant_n to_o take_v heretical_a for_o that_o which_o be_v against_o scripture_n now_o mr._n widdrington_n take_v heretical_a in_o this_o

which_o sense_n i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v above_o to_o be_v proper_a and_o usual_a both_o among_o protestant_n and_o catholic_n affirm_v that_o the_o doctrine_n even_o of_o depose_v prince_n be_v excommunicate_v or_o deprive_v by_o the_o pope_n may_v be_v abjure_v not_o only_o as_o heretical_a but_o for_o heretical_a 2._o but_o because_o some_o may_v peradventure_o contend_v as_o you_o seem_v to_o do_v that_o the_o word_n heretical_a according_o to_o the_o common_a understanding_n of_o catholic_n be_v to_o be_v take_v only_o for_o that_o which_o be_v express_o declare_v by_o the_o

false_a give_v this_o last_o answer_n to_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o have_v the_o word_n heretical_a to_o be_v take_v for_o that_o doctrine_n which_o be_v make_v heretical_a by_o the_o church_n and_o make_v a_o formal_a heretic_n and_o which_o before_o the_o declaration_n of_o the_o church_n be_v not_o to_o be_v account_v heretical_a although_o it_o be_v a_o very_a false_a doctrine_n and_o contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n than_o the_o adverb_n as_o do_v signify_v both_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o word_n and_o also_o of_o the_o matter_n not_o a_o identity_n or_o reality_n but_o only_o a_o similitude_n of_o that_o strict_a and_o rigorous_a heretical_a and_o this_o answer_n he_o have_v at_o large_a confirm_v in_o his_o adjoinder_n against_o mr._n fitzherbert_n reply_v where_o you_o may_v see_v that_o the_o aduerbe_n as_o be_v a_o aduerbe_n of_o similitude_n do_v common_o and_o not_o only_o sometime_o or_o oftentimes_o signify_v only_o a_o similitude_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o word_n and_o that_o it_o never_o signify_v a_o reality_n identity_n or_o equality_n but_o only_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o matter_n to_o which_o it_o be_v apply_v and_o that_o if_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o branch_n will_v not_o permit_v without_o manifest_a absurdity_n that_o it_o signify_v a_o reality_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o interpret_v it_o in_o that_o sense_n which_o be_v not_o absurd_a according_a to_o the_o rule_v prescribe_v by_o divine_n for_o the_o interpret_n of_o law_n unless_o either_o the_o word_n will_v not_o bear_v a_o true_a sense_n which_o as_o mr._n widdrington_n have_v prove_v be_v very_o false_a or_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o lawmaker_n be_v to_o have_v it_o take_v in_o a_o absurd_a and_o inconvenient_a sense_n which_o be_v rashness_n and_o impiety_n so_o to_o judge_v of_o his_o majesty_n 3._o for_o howsoever_o his_o majesty_n be_v persuade_v in_o his_o opinion_n judgement_n or_o belief_n yet_o his_o
