A61544	A discourse concerning the illegality of the late ecclesiastical commission in answer to the vindication and defence of it : wherein the true notion of the legal supremacy is cleared, and an account is given of the nature, original, and mischief of the dispensing power.

we_o now_o inquire_v into_o but_o it_o be_v most_o considerable_a that_o king_n edward_n say_v he_o be_v god_n vicar_n and_o therefore_o can_v not_o look_v on_o himself_o as_o act_v by_o commission_n from_o the_o pope_n it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o three_o charter_n of_o westminster_n there_o be_v a_o bull_n of_o nicholas_n the_o second_o wherein_o he_o give_v to_o the_o king_n and_o his_o

that_o the_o king_n have_v a_o right_a to_o protect_v the_o church_n from_o injury_n but_o such_o a_o inherent_a right_n of_o ecclesiastical_a jurisdiction_n which_o he_o may_v delegate_v to_o other_o whether_o bishop_n or_o not_o and_o empower_v they_o to_o proceed_v by_o ecclesiastical_a censure_n against_o offender_n summon_v to_o appear_v before_o they_o and_o the_o question_n now_o be_v not_o

as_o he_o think_v fit_a layman_n or_o bishop_n to_o proceed_v against_o the_o king_n subject_n by_o ecclesiastical_a censure_n and_o this_o very_o state_v of_o the_o case_n as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v show_v how_o impertinent_a the_o remainder_n of_o his_o example_n be_v but_o to_o proceed_v in_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n william_n the_o first_o in_o the_o time_n of_o william_n the_o conqueror_n he_o only_o mention_n a_o case_n out_o of_o fitz-herbert_n that_o he_o make_v a_o appropriation_n of_o church_n with_o cure_n to_o ecclesiastical_a person_n viz._n to_o a_o prebend_n of_o the_o

that_o what_o they_o find_v once_o settle_v for_o law_n in_o their_o book_n they_o imagine_v be_v never_o otherwise_o thus_o appropriation_n after_o diocese_n be_v settle_v be_v look_v on_o as_o
