be_v from_o the_o high_a power_n that_o the_o canon_n have_v the_o force_n of_o a_o law_n no_o marvel_n if_o the_o high_a power_n upon_o just_a cause_n may_v recede_v from_o that_o law_n either_o in_o

high_a power_n be_v never_o conceive_v to_o be_v exclude_v it_o be_v true_a the_o example_n of_o election_n make_v by_o bishop_n prove_v it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o election_n be_v make_v by_o the_o high_a power_n the_o canon_n also_o show_v the_o same_o election_n be_v right_o make_v by_o bishop_n with_o consent_n of_o the_o high_a power_n but_o neither_o of_o these_o be_v in_o question_n the_o question_n be_v whether_o it_o be_v also_o lawful_a for_o the_o high_a power_n to_o make_v election_n that_o it_o be_v lawful_a we_o have_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o best_a both_o among_o
