the_o imperial_a law_n of_o this_o realm_n all_o the_o king_n in_o their_o coronation_n and_o all_o justice_n when_o they_o receive_v their_o office_n be_v swear_v and_o all_o the_o whole_a realm_n

and_o to_o meet_v with_o this_o the_o pope_n have_v provide_v for_o their_o law_n by_o curse_v he_o suppose_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v not_o full_o open_v in_o the_o parliamenthouse_n when_o the_o

another_o cause_n he_o urge_v to_o the_o queen_n why_o he_o can_v not_o allow_v the_o pope_n authority_n be_v because_o he_o subvert_v not_o only_o the_o law_n of_o the_o nation_n but_o the_o law_n
