bishop_n which_o he_o be_v bold_a to_o present_v to_o the_o pope_n holiness_n where_o it_o find_v kind_a acceptation_n and_o therefore_o be_v and_o must_v be_v authentical_a though_o it_o give_v our_o

that_o every_o venial_a sin_n be_v the_o transgression_n of_o some_o law_n three_o that_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n against_o right_a reason_n be_v to_o do_v against_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n four_o

of_o word_n seem_v to_o object_v for_o himself_o objection_n 1_o the_o one_o that_o king_n do_v not_o call_v or_o confirm_v counsel_n as_o they_o be_v king_n but_o rather_o as_o the_o servant_n or_o

the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n in_o all_o ecclesiastical_a cause_n and_o for_o all_o that_o not_o have_v desire_a jurisdiction_n in_o italy_n and_o rome_n itself_o for_o our_o jesuite_n must_v know_v

be_v marry_v for_o the_o space_n of_o one_o thousand_o year_n after_o christ_n proposition_n this_o be_v make_v evident_a in_o the_o six_o and_o seven_o proposition_n four_o that_o secular_a priest_n

be_v prove_v in_o the_o 12._o proposition_n and_o it_o strike_v dead_a now_o see_v first_o that_o no_o positive_a constitution_n against_o priest_n marriage_n can_v true_o be_v derive_v either_o from_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n see_v second_o that_o it_o be_v ever_o lawful_a for_o priest_n in_o the_o east_n church_n to_o be_v marry_v see_v three_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o priest_n

the_o greek_n can_v not_o be_v excuse_v who_o never_o yield_v thereunto_o second_o because_o so_o many_o learned_a papist_n do_v constant_o affirm_v and_o teach_v that_o neither_o christ_n nor_o his_o
