power_n for_o albeit_o some_o papist_n move_v by_o morality_n and_o consideration_n of_o a_o honest_a life_n or_o by_o a_o imbred_a disposition_n of_o nature_n or_o by_o fear_n of_o temporal_a punishment_n seem_v to_o manifest_a obedience_n to_o the_o ordinance_n and_o law_n of_o the_o magistrate_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o those_o of_o the_o reform_a religion_n hold_v and_o maintain_v the_o ordinance_n and_o law_n of_o the_o magistrate_n for_o conscience_n sake_n but_o the_o papist_n defend_v and_o maintain_v these_o wicked_a and_o damnable_a position_n as_o 1._o that_o the_o pope_n have_v power_n to_o excommunicate_v all_o christian_a king_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n 2._o that_o he_o have_v power_n to_o absolve_v and_o to_o discharge_v all_o subject_n of_o their_o faithful_a obedience_n 3._o that_o the_o pope_n have_v power_n to_o depose_v king_n and_o prince_n from_o their_o crown_n and_o throne_n and_o to_o give_v they_o unto_o other_o 4._o

that_o no_o spiritual_a person_n can_v commit_v any_o treason_n against_o any_o earthly_a prince_n or_o king_n because_o he_o be_v not_o the_o king_n subject_n but_o the_o pope_n and_o the_o like_a

thereof_o as_o we_o think_v the_o experience_n in_o france_n venice_n and_o england_n have_v sufficient_o teach_v and_o your_o lordship_n out_o of_o natural_a reason_n can_v easy_o conclude_v to_o
