of_o prince_n be_v in_o this_o sense_n heretical_a as_o in_o very_a deed_n it_o be_v and_o therefore_o all_o those_o priest_n who_o then_o be_v prisoner_n in_o newgate_n and_o the_o gatehouse_n and_o

this_o that_o it_o be_v direct_o and_o absolute_o murder_v for_o any_o man_n to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o that_o the_o church_n can_v not_o define_v it_o to_o be_v

think_v it_o needful_a and_o not_o suppose_v it_o to_o be_v a_o manifest_a untruth_n and_o condemn_v by_o the_o common_a coesent_n also_o of_o catholic_n and_o also_o that_o all_o those_o place_n which_o his_o majesty_n bring_v to_o prove_v that_o subject_n owe_v civil_a obedience_n to_o temporal_a prince_n and_o against_o the_o pope_n ecclesiastical_a power_n to_o deprive_v prince_n of_o their_o temporal_a kingdom_n do_v more_o forcible_o conclude_v against_o violent_a attempt_n against_o their_o sacred_a person_n and_o against_o the_o pope_n ecclesiastical_a or_o spiritual_a power_n to_o murder_n kill_v or_o deprive_v they_o of_o their_o life_n which_o bloody_a punishment_n ecclesiastical_a mildness_n do_v so_o much_o abhor_v 104_o neither_o do_v i_o take_v the_o word_n murder_a

this_o of_o themselves_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v they_o in_o all_o thing_n wherefore_o the_o church_n define_v any_o thing_n to_o be_v of_o faith_n although_o she_o do_v certain_o

be_v catholic_a and_o if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v catholic_a the_o church_n define_v it_o to_o be_v catholic_a shall_v have_v err_v therefore_o it_o be_v catholic_a and_o reveal_v by_o god_n before_o

before_o false_a contrary_a to_o catholic_a faith_n and_o heresy_n but_o because_o this_o name_n of_o heretic_n be_v infamous_a and_o appertain_v to_o that_o most_o heinous_a crime_n do_v require_v a_o certain_a pertinacy_n and_o rebellion_n depart_v from_o the_o definition_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n which_o can_v not_o true_o be_v account_v at_o that_o time_n when_o it_o be_v doubtful_a

that_o the_o church_n have_v power_n to_o declare_v a_o assertion_n to_o be_v catholic_a and_o to_o appertain_v to_o catholic_a faith_n to_o this_o effect_n that_o after_o the_o definition_n of_o
