A42657 Siniorragia the sifters sieve broken, or a reply to Doctor Boughen's sifting my case of conscience touching the Kings coronation oath : wherein is cleared that bishops are not jure divino, that their sole government without the help of presbyters is an ursurpation and an innovation, that the Kings oath at coronation is not to be extended to preserve bishops, with the ruine of himself and kingdome / by John Geree. Geree, John, 1601?-1649. 1648 (1648) Wing G599; ESTC R26434 102,019 146

word_n of_o the_o oath_n the_o only_a objection_n as_o i_o conceive_v which_o lie_v against_o this_o be_v that_o though_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o king_n power_n to_o uphold_v they_o yet_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n not_o to_o consent_v to_o their_o fall_n answ_n if_o the_o king_n shall_v be_v peremptory_a in_o denial_n what_o help_n will_v this_o be_v to_o they_o such_o peremptoriness_n in_o this_o circumstance_n may_v endanger_v his_o crown_n not_o save_o their_o mitre_n beside_o though_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o deny_v assent_n to_o their_o abolition_n in_o a_o natural_a sense_n because_o voluntas_fw-la non_fw-la potest_fw-la cogi_fw-la yet_o be_v it_o not_o in_o his_o power_n in_o a_o moral_a sense_n because_o he_o can_v now_o deny_v consent_n without_o sin_n for_o if_o he_o consent_v not_o there_o will_v evident_o continue_v such_o distraction_n and_o confusion_n as_o be_v most_o repugnant_a to_o the_o weal_n of_o his_o people_n which_o he_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o rule_n of_o government_n and_o his_o oath_n to_o provide_v for_o chap._n xi_o show_v that_o the_o king_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o protect_v the_o bishop_n honour_n with_o the_o life_n of_o his_o good_a subject_n in_o answer_n to_o doctor_n boughen_n 16._o chapter_n i_o proceed_v to_o the_o answer_n of_o your_o 16._o chapter_n entitle_v how_o far_o forth_o the_o king_n ought_v to_o protect_v the_o church_n and_o bishop_n you_o begin_v it_o be_v confess_v to_o my_o hand_n that_o the_o king_n be_v engage_v to_o his_o power_n to_o protect_v the_o bishop_n and_o their_o privilege_n as_o every_o good_a king_n ought_v in_o right_n to_o protect_v the_o bishop_n and_o church_n under_o their_o government_n it_o be_v confess_v that_o these_o be_v the_o expression_n of_o the_o oath_n as_o it_o be_v set_v down_o by_o the_o reviewer_n but_o you_o shall_v conceive_v that_o i_o propose_v these_o two_o clause_n as_o limitation_n of_o the_o king_n engagement_n that_o be_v 1._o to_o his_o power_n 2._o only_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o in_o right_n he_o ought_v and_o i_o do_v not_o say_v the_o engagement_n be_v put_v upon_o he_o by_o the_o author_n as_o you_o ignorant_o suggest_v but_o that_o these_o be_v the_o expression_n of_o the_o oath_n deliver_v by_o the_o author_n but_o he_o be_v not_o in_o right_a bind_v to_o protect_v their_o privilege_n against_o a_o orderly_a alteration_n by_o act_n of_o parliament_n if_o any_o appear_v inconvenient_a to_o the_o whole_a body_n for_o that_o be_v not_o right_a parag._n 2._o you_o confess_v the_o king_n be_v not_o bind_v further_a to_o exercise_v his_o power_n in_o protection_n of_o bishop_n than_o he_o can_v do_v it_o without_o sin_v and_o i_o after_o prove_v he_o can_v so_o protect_v they_o as_o to_o deny_v a_o bill_n in_o that_o circumstance_n of_o affair_n he_o and_o the_o land_n be_v in_o without_o sin_n what_o you_o answer_v to_o my_o proof_n will_v be_v see_v in_o the_o sequel_n of_o this_o chapter_n how_o i_o have_v answer_v your_o proof_n that_o he_o can_v let_v fall_n bishop_n without_o mischief_n to_o his_o people_n etc._n etc._n in_o your_o eight_o chapter_n let_v the_o reader_n judge_n in_o that_o you_o say_v parag_v 3._o that_o the_o king_n interpose_v the_o power_n he_o have_v vex_v my_o confederacy_n be_v i_o doubt_v your_o wilful_a ignorance_n for_o the_o frame_n of_o my_o book_n may_v clear_o enough_o hint_n unto_o you_o that_o i_o neither_o be_v of_o nor_o like_v any_o confederacy_n against_o the_o king_n neither_o have_v i_o as_o you_o say_v parag_v 4._o confess_v that_o what_o the_o king_n have_v do_v be_v right_o right_o it_o be_v indeed_o upon_o his_o principle_n but_o i_o do_v not_o think_v the_o king_n be_v bind_v in_o right_a to_o maintain_v bishop_n in_o statu_fw-la quo_fw-la in_o the_o state_n wherein_o they_o be_v and_o he_o be_v willing_a now_o to_o regulate_v they_o by_o their_o presbyter_n but_o whatever_o i_o confess_v in_o justification_n of_o the_o king_n be_v not_o as_o you_o say_v the_o justification_n of_o a_o enemy_n unless_o he_o that_o plead_v pray_v suffer_v for_o the_o king_n and_o his_o just_a and_o kingly_a liberty_n be_v his_o enemy_n because_o he_o be_v against_o the_o usurp_a power_n of_o bishop_n parag._n 5._o if_o after_o all_o this_o he_o must_v perforce_o let_v the_o bishop_n fall_n you_o and_o your_o schism_n have_v much_o to_o answer_v for_o still_o a_o slanderer_n it_o be_v none_o of_o my_o schism_n to_o force_v the_o king_n to_o let_v they_o fall_v for_o though_o i_o prove_v he_o may_v let_v they_o fall_v and_o that_o it_o be_v for_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o church_n that_o they_o shall_v fall_v yet_o i_o be_v always_o against_o force_v he_o to_o it_o for_o i_o think_v it_o be_v much_o more_o reason_n that_o his_o conscience_n shall_v be_v leave_v free_a in_o its_o determination_n than_o my_o own_o or_o any_o private_a man_n in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v set_v he_o in_o so_o high_a a_o degree_n of_o eminency_n in_o his_o kingdom_n but_o that_o you_o say_v the_o sword_n be_v never_o draw_v on_o the_o king_n side_n to_o maintain_v religion_n establish_v they_o never_o learn_v to_o fight_v for_o religion_n it_o be_v a_o ignorant_a speech_n misbecome_v a_o d._n d._n for_o what_o just_a cause_n of_o war_n or_o more_o weighty_a then_o to_o maintain_v religion_n establish_v it_o be_v true_a we_o may_v not_o fight_v to_o set_v up_o a_o religion_n which_o be_v true_a against_o the_o law_n and_o authority_n of_o the_o land_n where_o we_o live_v that_o be_v against_o the_o direction_n to_o christian_n under_o heathen_a emperor_n rom._n 13.1.2_o but_o to_o join_v with_o authority_n to_o maintain_v religion_n establish_v suppose_v it_o true_a with_o the_o last_o drop_n of_o our_o blood_n be_v the_o most_o glorious_a quarrel_n and_o so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o royal_a party_n learned_a though_o not_o from_o you_o yet_o from_o better_a divine_n for_o your_o clinch_n about_o good_a subject_n it_o be_v frivolous_a for_o the_o war_n cost_v blood_n on_o both_o side_n and_o the_o king_n lose_v on_o both_o side_n for_o all_o be_v his_o subject_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o have_v good_a subject_n on_o both_o side_n in_o regard_n of_o meaning_n and_o intention_n though_o its_o true_a one_o side_n must_v needs_o be_v in_o a_o grand_a error_n parag._n 6._o you_o confess_v it_o be_v a_o hard_a case_n for_o one_o man_n to_o engage_v his_o life_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o another_o privilege_n but_o who_o do_v so_o not_o a_o man_n say_v you_o engage_v himself_o but_o by_o the_o king_n command_n which_o you_o after_o prove_v and_o state_n the_o question_n we_o you_o please_v but_o this_o be_v but_o to_o shuffle_v and_o alter_v the_o state_n of_o a_o question_n to_o elude_v the_o force_n of_o a_o argument_n which_o you_o can_v answer_v that_o which_o i_o say_v be_v it_o be_v not_o equal_a for_o the_o king_n to_o engage_v by_o his_o command_n the_o life_n of_o some_o to_o maintain_v the_o privilege_n of_o other_o which_o i_o speak_v upon_o this_o supposition_n that_o if_o the_o king_n have_v condescend_v in_o point_n of_o

for_o this_o cause_n alone_o viz._n to_o maintain_v power_n of_o bishop_n i_o say_v it_o will_v not_o have_v be_v equal_a to_o have_v engage_v the_o life_n of_o other_o nor_o be_v they_o willing_a as_o i_o have_v be_v inform_v noble_n nor_o other_o it_o may_v be_v the_o king_n think_v condescension_n in_o this_o will_v not_o have_v set_v he_o and_o his_o people_n in_o quiet_a possession_n of_o

of_o misery_n that_o his_o majesty_n his_o royal_a relation_n and_o the_o whole_a nation_n have_v suffer_v but_o par._n 7._o you_o deny_v they_o to_o be_v other_o privilege_n and_o affirm_v they_o to_o be_v the_o people_n because_o they_o reap_v spiritual_n from_o they_o but_o true_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o the_o people_n reap_v but_o little_a in_o spiritual_n from_o many_o of_o the_o bishop_n who_o seldom_o preach_v themselves_o and_o robe_v many_o people_n of_o their_o spiritual_n by_o silence_v their_o minister_n and_o though_o there_o be_v no_o bishop_n in_o england_n the_o people_n may_v reap_v spiritual_a thing_n from_o the_o clergy_n as_o plentiful_o if_o not_o more_o than_o ever_o they_o do_v as_o well_o as_o without_o they_o they_o do_v in_o other_o reform_a
