and_o therefore_o these_o cannon_n make_v against_o the_o laiety_n as_o well_o as_o the_o clergy_n without_o their_o assent_n can_v bind_v point_n 2_o i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o 2d._o point_n which_o

of_o the_o stat._n of_o 25._o hen._n 8._o cap._n 19_o i_o think_v they_o have_v not_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n by_o which_o the_o clergy_n have_v power_n to_o make_v cannon_n 19_o 25._o hen._n 8._o cap._n 19_o be_v pen_v in_o the_o negative_a that_o they_o shall_v not_o enact_v promulge_v or_o execute_v any_o cannon_n or_o constitution_n etc._n etc._n in_o their_o convocation_n and_o which_o always_o shall_v be_v assemble_v by_o authority_n of_o the_o king_n write_v unless_o the_o same_o clergy_n may_v have_v the_o king_n most_o royal_a assent_n to_o make_v promulge_fw-mi and_o execute_v such_o cannon_n upon_o pain_n of_o imprisonment_n and_o to_o make_v fine_a at_o the_o king_n will_n by_o which_o it_o plain_o appear_v that_o the_o clergy_n have_v no_o power_n to_o make_v cannon_n but_o in_o their_o convocation_n and_o that_o to_o the_o make_n of_o these_o cannon_n there_o must_v be_v the_o king_n royal_a assent_n whether_o this_o be_v so_o or_o no_o come_v now_o to_o
