in_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n that_o the_o french_a spanish_a and_o many_o other_o roman-catholic_n stick_v to_o their_o immediate_a divine_a right_n too_o and_o the_o great_a reason_n why_o

for_o the_o be_v and_o authority_n of_o archbishop_n and_o consequent_o of_o such_o a_o ecumenical_a bishop_n be_v not_o necessary_a and_o essential_a to_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n as_o no_o

with_o the_o archiepiscopal_a and_o patriarchal_a authority_n which_o be_v not_o institute_v by_o christ_n and_o then_o this_o argument_n be_v lose_v or_o else_o christ_n institute_v one_o church_n

the_o archiepiscopal_a and_o patriarchal_a authority_n be_v original_o of_o humane_a institution_n so_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o before_o the_o church_n be_v incorporate_v into_o the_o state_n and_o it_o may_v be_v some_o time_n after_o it_o do_v not_o give_v a_o direct_a authority_n and_o jurisdiction_n to_o one_o bishop_n over_o another_o for_o st._n cyprian_n who_o be_v a_o primate_n himself_o

to_o maintain_v the_o authority_n of_o church_n censure_n without_o such_o appeal_n for_o though_o there_o be_v no_o original_a right_n of_o appeal_n from_o the_o sentence_n of_o one_o bishop_n to_o

to_o pass_v it_o over_o without_o observe_v some_o peculiar_a strain_n of_o reason_n and_o rhetoric_n in_o it_o as_o for_o example_n that_o appeal_n be_v to_o no_o end_n if_o there_o be_v not_o some_o

require_v every_o man_n be_v own_o judgement_n and_o his_o personal_a assent_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o it_o may_v be_v of_o great_a use_n for_o christian_a prince_n and_o emperor_n to_o summon_v such_o

of_o these_o council_n never_o put_v a_o end_n to_o any_o one_o dispute_n any_o far_a than_o they_o be_v back_v by_o the_o imperial_a power_n which_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o they_o do_v not_o

especial_o two_o since_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o it_o to_o catholic_n communion_n the_o christian_a church_n maintain_v a_o very_a strict_a alliance_n and_o communion_n with_o each_o other_o

as_o for_o his_o french_a popery_n let_v it_o be_v what_o it_o will_v i_o be_o unconcern_v in_o it_o since_o i_o give_v no_o supreme_a authority_n neither_o to_o pope_n nor_o general_n council_n and_o

vain_a this_o charge_n of_o cassandrian_n or_o french_a popery_n be_v though_o i_o have_v give_v such_o a_o authority_n to_o a_o general_n council_n for_o mere_o to_o assert_v the_o authority_n of_o a_o general_n council_n do_v not_o make_v any_o man_n a_o papist_n of_o no_o sort_n whatsoever_o unless_o he_o assert_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o pope_n for_o though_o there_o be_v some_o dispute_n
