or_o governor_n or_o principium_fw-la of_o that_o concord_n but_o not_o principium_fw-la essentiale_fw-la ipsius_fw-la ecclesiae_fw-la and_o therefore_o the_o puritan_n differ_v from_o judicious_a ric._n hooker_n who_o say_v if_o the_o king_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n he_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o christian_n for_o we_o hold_v that_o a_o infidel_n king_n may_v be_v so_o the_o head_n that_o be_v the_o rightful_a governor_n of_o the_o christian_n and_o church_n in_o his_o dominion_n or_o else_o how_o shall_v they_o be_v oblige_v to_o obey_v he_o ix_o and_o you_o be_v mistake_v if_o you_o think_v that_o the_o puritan_n and_o the_o prelatist_n differ_v about_o submit_v our_o faith_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n we_o subscribe_v the_o same_o article_n which_o say_v that_o general_a council_n may_v err_v and_o have_v err_v even_o about_o matter_n of_o faith_n x._o but_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o the_o puritan_n who_o be_v accuse_v of_o disorder_n and_o confusion_n do_v many_o of_o they_o loath_a disorder_n and_o confusion_n even_o in_o word_n and_o doctrine_n and_o they_o distinguish_v here_o between_o the_o church_n keep_v and_o teach_v the_o christian_a faith_n and_o the_o church_n judge_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n the_o first_o they_o be_v whole_o for_o we_o must_v receive_v our_o faith_n from_o our_o teacher_n and_o oportet_fw-la discentem_fw-la fide_fw-la humana_fw-la credere_fw-la but_o if_o by_o judge_v you_o mean_v strict_o a_o decisive_n judgement_n in_o which_o we_o must_v rest_v which_o way_n soever_o the_o sentence_n pass_v as_o if_o the_o church_n may_v not_o only_o teach_v we_o the_o truth_n of_o our_o religion_n but_o judge_n in_o partem_fw-la utramlibet_fw-la whether_o it_o be_v true_a or_o not_o the_o puritan_n own_v no_o such_o power_n in_o the_o church_n nor_o will_v so_o submit_v their_o faith_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o it_o they_o believe_v that_o pastor_n in_o council_n have_v power_n to_o judge_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n almighty_a etc._n etc._n a_o christ_n a_o holy_a ghost_n that_o christ_n die_v rose_n etc._n etc._n that_o the_o scripture_n be_v true_a that_o there_o be_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o holiness_n that_o there_o be_v a_o resurrection_n and_o life_n everlasting_a that_o god_n commandment_n must_v be_v keep_v and_o sin_v not_o commit_v etc._n etc._n but_o that_o no_o council_n have_v power_n to_o judge_v that_o there_o be_v no_o god_n no_o christ_n or_o the_o contrary_a to_o any_o one_o of_o these_o or_o any_o other_o reveal_v truth_n of_o god_n xi_o and_o i_o must_v not_o let_v pass_v your_o schismatical_a inference_n that_o else_o there_o shall_v be_v as_o many_o religion_n and_o way_n of_o worship_n as_o parish_n or_o person_n if_o some_o supreme_a governor_n determine_v not_o in_o matter_n of_o worship_n for_o 1._o it_o be_v not_o so_o when_o no_o supreme_a governor_n determine_v on_o earth_n 2._o but_o either_o you_o mean_v the_o substantial_o of_o god_n worship_n or_o the_o circumstantial_o in_o the_o first_o as_o faith_n be_v not_o to_o be_v get_v by_o force_n so_o neither_o be_v godliness_n but_o yet_o governor_n shall_v here_o do_v their_o best_a but_o as_o to_o the_o other_o we_o abhor_v the_o conceit_n that_o there_o be_v as_o many_o religion_n as_o there_o be_v difference_n about_o vesture_n gesture_n day_n and_o meat_n but_o perhaps_o you_o take_v the_o word_n religion_n in_o the_o roman_a sense_n as_o you_o confine_v it_o to_o those_o that_o you_o call_v the_o religious_a as_o if_o you_o take_v the_o people_n of_o your_o church_n to_o be_v irreligious_a and_o so_o you_o have_v indeed_o too_o many_o religious_a however_o they_o come_v to_o make_v one_o church_n the_o religion_n of_o the_o carthusian_n be_v one_o and_o of_o the_o benedictines_n another_o and_o of_o the_o franciscan_n another_o i_o can_v name_v they_o all_o one_o eat_v herb_n and_o fish_n and_o another_o eat_v flesh_n seldom_o another_o often_o one_o wear_v one_o habit_n and_o another_o wear_v another_o one_o religion_n have_v one_o rule_n of_o life_n and_o another_o have_v another_o but_o with_o we_o there_o be_v
