you_o make_v to_o the_o secular_a magistrate_n by_o who_o this_o cause_n be_v judge_v against_o you_o for_o we_o wish_v the_o remembrance_n of_o that_o may_v be_v bury_v in_o oblivion_n and_o will_v glad_o have_v you_o dash_v out_o those_o word_n out_o of_o your_o letter_n so_o that_o they_o may_v not_o remain_v upon_o the_o record_n of_o the_o gallicane_n church_n to_o your_o eternal_a

without_o any_o limitation_n of_o time_n and_o with_o the_o manifest_a danger_n of_o establish_v a_o precedent_n which_o may_v spread_v much_o further_o these_o consequence_n must_v certain_o follow_v if_o we_o shall_v suffer_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v put_v in_o execution_n which_o have_v be_v late_o do_v by_o the_o most_o christian_a king_n even_o with_o your_o consent_n in_o the_o affair_n of_o

you_o yourselves_o do_v acknowledge_v and_o confess_v this_o truth_n when_o upon_o another_o occasion_n you_o declare_v that_o the_o right_n of_o the_o regale_n especial_o in_o that_o branch_n of_o it_o that_o belong_v to_o the_o collation_n of_o benefice_n be_v a_o servitude_n that_o can_v not_o be_v bring_v upon_o the_o church_n but_o by_o her_o concession_n at_o least_o by_o her_o consent_n by_o what_o right_o then_o have_v you_o confer_v that_o on_o the_o king_n and_o since_o the_o holy_a canon_n forbid_v the_o alienate_n the_o right_n of_o the_o church_n how_o can_v it_o enter_v into_o

excellent_o to_o this_o purpose_n who_o you_o just_o call_v the_o light_n not_o only_o of_o the_o gallican_n but_o of_o the_o universal_a church_n when_o he_o be_v put_v pope_n eugenius_n in_o mind_n
