there_o then_o we_o here_o yet_o they_o have_v only_o a_o bishop_n with_o a_o foreign_a title_n and_o i_o believe_v with_o power_n far_o short_a of_o that_o which_o this_o divine_a will_v fain_o have_v for_o my_o lord_n of_o chalcedon_n where_o if_o they_o have_v bishop_n &_o bishop_n court_n as_o we_o have_v such_o law_n of_o ancient_a and_o late_a time_n as_o we_o have_v i_o doubt_v whether_o they_o will_v have_v even_o that_o but_o to_o be_v brief_a i_o say_v in_o a_o word_n that_o our_o kingdom_n be_v more_o different_a from_o both_o ireland_n and_o holland_n than_o they_o two_o be_v from_o perfect_a catholic_a country_n and_o whereas_o this_o divine_a bring_v a_o place_n of_o scripture_n for_o proof_n of_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n thereby_o to_o make_v man_n not_o

be_v silent_a so_o long_o towards_o his_o lordship_n so_o claim_v &_o publish_v his_o authority_n this_o divine_a say_v that_o they_o pretend_v the_o cause_n of_o disavow_v the_o bishop_n power_n of_o

and_o answer_v before_o but_o as_o he_o allege_v they_o here_o again_o so_o must_v i_o be_v fain_o to_o repeat_v the_o answer_n the_o first_o be_v because_o no_o usual_a authority_n of_o a_o ordinary_a which_o alone_o the_o bishop_n claim_v but_o at_o most_o extraordinary_a of_o legate_n and_o such_o like_a be_v forbid_v by_o the_o ancient_a law_n without_o the_o prince_n approbation_n i_o answer_v as_o before_o that_o my_o lord_n bishop_n authority_n which_o he_o claim_v be_v not_o that_o usual_a authority_n of_o a_o ordinary_a but_o that_o extraordinary_a of_o legate_n and_o such_o like_a as_o appear_z plain_o by_o the_o word_n of_o his_o own_o letter_n wherein_o he_o say_v he_o be_v not_o ordinary_a ordinario_fw-la modo_fw-la but_o extraordinario_fw-la as_o legate_n nuntioe_n &_o such_o like_a now_o that_o be_v usual_a authority_n for_o a_o ordinary_a which_o be_v have_v in_o the_o usual_a manner_n therefore_o that_o authority_n which_o he_o claim_v be_v that_o which_o be_v forbid_a by_o the_o aunicent_a law_n the_o 2._o reason_n because_o those_o law_n be_v make_v for_o catholic_a time_n and_o in_o favour_n of_o catholic_a ordinary_n not_o for_o herelicall_a time_n and_o in_o favour_n of_o heretical_a ordinary_n against_o catholic_n i_o answer_v well_o be_v it_o so_o do_v this_o divine_a think_v in_o his_o conscience_n such_o a_o answer_n will_v quit_v a_o man_n that_o shall_v stand_v at_o the_o bar_n for_o acknowledge_v of_o my_o lord_n bishop_n ordinaryshippe_n or_o judicative_a power_n sure_o he_o can_v think_v it_o for_o though_o the_o law_n be_v make_v in_o a_o catholic_a time_n when_o they_o little_o dream_v of_o such_o a_o change_n as_o have_v be_v since_o yet_o now_o the_o time_n be_v change_v and_o protestant_a ordinary_n be_v come_v in_o place_n of_o catholic_n all_o the_o power_n &_o privilege_n of_o the_o one_o confer_v upon_o the_o other_o and_o the_o law_n not_o repeal_v be_v not_o man_n still_o liable_a what_o with_o right_n and_o what_o with_o might_n questionless_a a_o man_n will_v be_v find_v guilty_a for_o his_o 3._o reason_n he_o say_v he_o much_o suspect_v that_o only_a privity_n do_v not_o make_v a_o man_n guilty_a but_o grant_v it_o of_o acknowledgement_n or_o participation_n but_o he_o ask_v what_o need_v they_o have_v to_o take_v knowledge_n of_o such_o authority_n for_o the_o bishop_n he_o say_v write_v but_o one_o letter_n of_o this_o matter_n which_o come_v to_o few_o hand_n and_o far_o few_o can_v be_v convince_v to_o have_v see_v it_o i_o answer_v that_o for_o the_o privity_n though_o this_o divine_a say_v he_o suspect_v that_o will_v not_o make_v a_o man_n guilty_a yet_o i_o presume_v he_o can_v be_v so_o bad_a a_o lawyer_n as_o not_o to_o know_v that_o privity_n in_o

in_o all_o criminal_a matter_n without_o exception_n why_o then_o shall_v he_o make_v question_n in_o this_o matter_n or_o take_v knowledge_n of_o it_o i_o will_v fain_o hear_v how_o can_v any_o man_n

make_v by_o a_o letter_n write_v to_o all_o the_o catholic_n of_o england_n for_o their_o satisfaction_n and_o to_o let_v they_o know_v what_o authority_n he_o have_v will_v it_o seem_v probable_a that_o any_o catholic_a shall_v not_o see_v or_o hear_v of_o such_o a_o letter_n now_o that_o the_o letter_n be_v but_o one_o that_o it_o come_v to_o few_o hand_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v but_o

no_o man_n will_v stand_v to_o prove_v it_o but_o presume_v it_o as_o any_o man_n well_o may_v for_o what_o catholic_n can_v be_v ignorant_a of_o it_o the_o 4._o reason_n be_v that_o many_o month_n before_o my_o lord_n bishop_n publish_v his_o authority_n of_o ordinary_a these_o gentleman_n send_v interrogatory_n as_o this_o divine_a term_v they_o unto_o he_o to_o have_v he_o declare_v whether_o he_o be_v ordinary_a or_o no._n so_o as_o he_o say_v they_o be_v rather_o desirous_a he_o shall_v declare_v himself_o to_o be_v ordinary_a then_o conceal_v it_o it_o be_v true_a catholic_n see_v

may_v not_o the_o answer_n have_v be_v private_a as_o the_o demand_n be_v they_o be_v desirous_a to_o know_v but_o not_o so_o that_o all_o the_o world_n must_v know_v they_o know_v have_v they_o
