the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v good_a they_o be_v alike_o strong_a at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o age_n and_o therefore_o though_o in_o write_v book_n of_o controversy_n they_o

the_o decree_n of_o they_o be_v of_o equal_a authority_n second_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v as_o little_a to_o be_v dispute_v in_o moral_a matter_n that_o fall_v under_o practice_n

opinion_n if_o then_o there_o arise_v a_o question_n about_o a_o moral_a matter_n or_o the_o exposition_n of_o any_o of_o the_o commandment_n the_o only_a certain_a decision_n must_v be_v expect_v

the_o worship_n of_o they_o have_v to_o the_o 2d_o commandment_n since_o the_o church_n have_v once_o determine_v that_o it_o may_v be_v lawful_o use_v it_o be_v heresy_n to_o deny_v it_o on_o this_o

or_o the_o whole_a doctrine_n of_o the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o church_n fall_v to_o the_o ground_n concern_v the_o certainty_n of_o tradition_n the_o general_a opinion_n of_o that_o party_n be_v that_o tradition_n be_v a_o infallible_a conveyance_n of_o divine_a truth_n and_o that_o whatever_o any_o age_n of_o the_o church_n deliver_v to_o another_o as_o derive_v from_o christ_n and_o his_o

their_o own_o assent_n to_o it_o this_o pass_v as_o a_o sufficient_a proof_n of_o the_o tradition_n of_o any_o age_n of_o the_o church_n so_o in_o all_o point_n of_o controversy_n between_o they_o and_o we_o the_o great_a part_n of_o their_o writer_n some_o few_o late_a and_o suspect_v one_o only_a except_v think_v they_o have_v sufficient_o justify_v their_o church_n when_o they_o bring_v testimony_n out_o of_o any_o of_o the_o write_n of_o the_o father_n that_o seem_v to_o favour_v their_o opinion_n and_o will_v call_v it_o unreasonable_a for_o we_o to_o reject_v these_o because_o they_o only_o deliver_v their_o own_o opinion_n and_o do_v not_o call_v it_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n but_o conclude_v that_o many_o writer_n in_o any_o age_n assert_v a_o opinion_n it_o may_v well_o be_v look_v on_o as_o the_o tradition_n of_o that_o age._n but_o because_o this_o be_v more_o liable_a to_o exception_n there_o be_v another_o way_n that_o be_v more_o infallible_a to_o judge_n of_o tradition_n and_o that_o be_v by_o the_o conveyance_n of_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n which_o they_o judge_v the_o chief_a depository_n of_o the_o faith_n and_o for_o which_o they_o fancy_n they_o have_v so_o many_o proof_n from_o the_o high_a thing_n some_o of_o the_o father_n have_v say_v about_o the_o dignity_n of_o that_o see_n now_o if_o these_o conclude_v any_o thing_n it_o must_v follow_v that_o whatever_o have_v be_v deliver_v in_o any_o age_n by_o a_o pope_n as_o convey_v down_o from_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n must_v either_o be_v so_o indeed_o or_o the_o see_v of_o

have_v deliver_v when_o assemble_v in_o a_o general_a council_n this_o be_v the_o supreme_a tribunal_n in_o the_o church_n there_o can_v lie_v no_o appeal_n from_o it_o nor_o can_v the_o doctrine_n

in_o a_o general_a council_n this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o can_v be_v have_v and_o he_o be_v very_o unreasonable_a that_o be_v not_o satisfy_v with_o it_o so_o if_o it_o be_v ask_v how_o can_v the_o tradition_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o depose_v king_n and_o give_v away_o their_o dominion_n in_o the_o same_o century_n be_v prove_v the_o answer_n be_v plain_a that_o same_o very_a council_n

to_o these_o a_o new_a one_o have_v be_v late_o add_v which_o be_v indeed_o a_o much_o short_a and_o near_a way_n and_o that_o be_v whatever_o the_o church_n hold_v in_o any_o one_o age_n as_o a_o material_a point_n of_o religion_n she_o must_v have_v receive_v it_o from_o the_o former_a age_n and_o that_o age_n from_o the_o former_a and_o so_o it_o climb_v upward_o till_o the_o day_n of_o

by_o which_o we_o may_v judge_n of_o what_o extent_n the_o pope_n power_n must_v be_v if_o he_o have_v a_o authority_n to_o depose_v king_n and_o transfer_v their_o dominion_n to_o other_o person_n first_o when_o the_o sovereign_a power_n proceed_v in_o a_o legal_a way_n against_o its_o subject_n if_o either_o they_o abscond_v so_o that_o they_o can_v be_v find_v or_o have_v such_o a_o power_n about_o they_o that_o the_o sovereign_n can_v bring_v they_o to_o punishment_n he_o may_v declare_v they_o rebel_n and_o set_v price_n on_o their_o head_n and_o in_o that_o case_n it_o be_v as_o lawful_a for_o any_o subject_a to_o kill_v they_o as_o it_o be_v for_o a_o executioner_n to_o put_v a_o condemn_a person_n to_o death_n these_o be_v the_o several_a way_n the_o law_n provide_v in_o those_o several_a case_n so_o when_o a_o pope_n depose_v a_o prince_n he_o may_v as_o lawful_o set_v on_o private_a assassinate_v to_o kill_v he_o as_o oblige_v his_o subject_n to_o rise_v with_o open_a force_n against_o he_o for_o if_o the_o pope_n have_v a_o power_n over_o he_o to_o depose_v he_o this_o clear_o follow_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o sovereign_a power_n and_o it_o be_v the_o course_n that_o sometime_o must_v be_v follow_v when_o the_o rebel_n can_v be_v no_o other_o way_n bring_v to_o deserve_a punishment_n and_o if_o the_o pope_n have_v the_o power_n of_o depose_v than_o a_o prince_n who_o after_o such_o a_o sentence_n carry_v himself_o as_o a_o king_n be_v a_o rebel_n against_o his_o supreme_a lord_n and_o be_v also_o a_o usurper_n for_o his_o title_n be_v destroy_v by_o the_o sentence_n he_o have_v no_o authority_n over_o his_o subject_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v as_o lawful_o kill_v as_o any_o rebel_n or_o usurper_n second_o the_o supreme_a power_n may_v in_o case_n of_o great_a necessity_n when_o the_o thing_n be_v in_o itself_o material_o just_a pass_v over_o such_o form_n as_o aught_o in_o ordinary_a case_n to_o be_v observe_v i_o need_v not_o tell_v you_o that_o in_o a_o great_a fire_n subordinate_a magistrate_n may_v blow_v up_o house_n but_o doubtless_o the_o supreme_a power_n of_o all_o as_o a_o king_n in_o a_o absolute_a monarchy_n and_o such_o be_v the_o papal_a power_n if_o these_o opinion_n be_v true_a may_v dispense_v with_o some_o form_n when_o the_o matter_n be_v in_o itself_o just_a and_o if_o the_o chief_a design_n of_o a_o law_n be_v pursue_v the_o circumstantial_a part_n of_o it_o may_v upon_o extraordinary_a occasion_n be_v supersede_v therefore_o if_o the_o pope_n be_v supreme_a over_o all_o king_n and_o have_v this_o depose_n power_n then_o though_o by_o the_o canon_n a_o king_n ought_v to_o be_v first_o a_o year_n excommunicate_v for_o his_o heresy_n or_o favour_a heretic_n and_o at_o the_o year_n end_v he_o may_v be_v depose_v by_o the_o pope_n there_o be_v also_o other_o rule_n for_o excommunication_n though_o the_o summary_n way_n in_o some_o case_n may_v be_v use_v yet_o all_o these_o be_v but_o

but_o form_n of_o law_n that_o can_v be_v indispensible_o necessary_a in_o all_o case_n beside_o the_o very_a canon_n law_n teach_v that_o when_o there_o be_v both_o a_o notorietas_fw-la juris_fw-la &_o facti_fw-la summary_n proceed_n be_v legal_a when_o than_o it_o be_v notorious_a that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n for_o instance_n be_v heretical_a and_o that_o the_o king_n be_v a_o obstinate_a favourer_n of_o these_o heresy_n and_o will_v not_o extirpate_v they_o summary_n and_o secret_n proceed_n be_v justifiable_a there_o be_v no_o hope_n that_o bull_n

therefore_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o supreme_a power_n it_o be_v most_o just_o infer_v that_o though_o there_o have_v be_v no_o public_a sentence_n of_o deposition_n according_a to_o the_o form_n of_o the_o canon_n law_n yet_o all_o these_o may_v be_v dispense_v with_o and_o a_o secret_a and_o summary_n one_o may_v do_v as_o well_o these_o position_n be_v such_o that_o i_o can_v fancy_n any_o

church_n of_o rome_n the_o power_n of_o depose_v king_n be_v lodge_v with_o the_o pope_n by_o a_o divine_a authority_n and_o that_o by_o consequence_n private_a person_n may_v conspire_v to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o a_o king_n so_o depose_v even_o though_o there_o be_v no_o public_a sentence_n give_v about_o it_o but_o before_o i_o bring_v the_o evidence_n for_o all_o this_o i_o shall_v desire_v the_o reader_n will_v a_o little_a reflect_v on_o the_o position_n i_o have_v lay_v down_o in_o which_o he_o will_v find_v a_o answer_n to_o all_o the_o exception_n that_o can_v be_v make_v
