,

by

,
and

Christ
was
Lord
over
all
Inferiors
,
not
only
as
God
,
but
likewise
as
man
,
having
even
then
Dominion
in
the
earth
,
and
that
therefore
as
the
dominion
of
the
world
was
in
Christ
both
divine
and
humane
,
so
it
must
be
confessed
that
it
was
in
the
Pope
his
Vicar
.
the
mystery
of
Redemption
being
accomplisht
,
Christ
as
a
King
gave
unto
the
administration
of
his
Kingdom
,
and
St.
did
execute
that
his
power
against
Ghrist
as
he
is
man
is
directly
Lord
over
all
the
world
in
Temporalities
,
and
that
therefore
the
Pope
is
so
likewise
,
in
that
he
is
Vicar
:
the
supreme
power
of
judging
all
,
and
the
top
of
dignities
,
and
the
height
of
both
powers
are
found
in
Christs
Vicar
:
as
the
divine
and
humane
dominion
were
in
Christ
,
so
in
Christs
stead
the
dominion
of
the
world
in
the
Pope
is
both
spiritual
and
temporal
,
divine
and
humane
the
unremovable
Truth
doth
design
,
by
only
coming
by
water
to
Christ
,
that
the
whole
dominion
,
which
is
signified
by
the
Sea
,
is
committed
to
St.
and
his
Successors
That
as
the
Pope
cannot
say
he
is
not
Christs
Vicar
,
so
he
cannot
deny
but
that
he
is
Lord
over
all
things
,
because
the
earth
is
the
Lords
and
the
fulness
thereof
,
whereby
all
things
,
heavenly
,
earthly
,
and
infernal
are
subject
unto
Christ
the
Lord
;
and
thence
it
is
that
he
did
commit
unto
the
Pope
,
who
doth
supply
his
place
upon
earth
,
the
right
of
the
Heavenly
and
Terrene
Empire
.
there
are
divers
Powers
of
men
given
by
God
,
and
divers
Authorities
,
all
which
do
depend
upon
the
highest
Authority
and
thence
as
the
stars
from
the
sun
receive
their
light
.
the
Imperial
power
concerning
the
administration
of
temporal
matters
doth
proceed
from
the
Pontifical
power
,
as
the
light
of
the
Moon
from
the
light
of
the
Sun
:
the
Empire
of
before
it
was
converted
to
Christ
,
was
a
dominion
usurpt
and
tyrannical
,
because
the
true
dominion
was
in
the
line
of
Christ
:
the
Emperor
is
the
Popes
Minister
;
for
God
did
appoint
him
no
King
or
Emperor
hath
jurisdiction
or
dominion
but
from
Christ
,
and
by
consequence
can
have
none
at
all
but
from
his
Vicar
.
Laelius
Zecchius
the
Pope
by
the
Law
of
God
hath
power
and
temporal
dominion
over
the
whole
world
:
That
the
same
is
prov'd
by
the
words
,
Behold
here
are
two
swords
,
which
signifie
the
power
,
spiritual
and
temporal
:
and
because
Christ
,
whose
Vicar
the
Pope
is
,
hath
both
powers
according
to
the
words
All
power
is
given
me
in
heaven
and
in
earth
;
that
thence
it
may
be
deduced
that
the
Pope
is
absolutely
Lord
of
all
the
Christian
world
;
and
Kings
and
Christian
Princes
are
to
acknowledge
that
they
hold
of
him
their
Empires
and
Kingdoms
,
and
all
,
that
are
faithful
,
ought
to
be
subject
unto
him
:
and
that
as
oft
as
such
Princes
do
any
great
hurt
in
the
Church
,
the
Pope
may
deprive
them
of
their
Kingdoms
,
and
transfer
their
right
to
others
.
the
supreme
temporal
Jurisdiction
throughout
all
the
world
doth
belong
to
Successors
:
so
as
one
and
the
same
is
the
Hierarch
and
Monarch
in
all
things
.
Christ
left
the
Church
to
be
govern'd
by
the
best
form
of
government
,
but
the
best
form
of
government
is
absolute
Monarchy
,
even
in
all
temporal
things
,
therefore
Christ
left
his
Church
to
be
so
govern'd
.
the
Keys
of
Heaven
were
given
to
therefore
of
all
the
earth
the
right
of
dominion
and
relation
of
Infidels
may
justly
,
by
the
sentence
and
ordination
of
the
Church
,
be
taken
away
;
because
Infidels
by
reason
of
their
infidelity
deserve
to
lose
their
power
over
the
faithful
.
the
Church
hath
receiv'd
that
power
over
Nations
,
which
Christ
according
to
his
humane
nature
reciev'd
of
his
Father
:

it
be

sometimes
that

as

is
not
to
be

restor'd

for

that
it
was
to
hold
only
til
the
Ascension
of

afterwards
that
should
come
to
pass
which
was
spoken
,
when
I
shall
be

will

the
Pope
has
so
too

this

who
gave

They
know
't
was
he
who
made
them

gave
them

They
are

't

they

Before
the
coming
of

in

were
both
Kings

of
Which

with
a
Tyrannical
Pride
,
to
usurp
to
himself
those
things
which
belong
to
divine
Worship
,
has
imitated
amongst
his
Followers
;
so
that
amongst
Pagans
the
same
men
have
been
Emperours
and
chief
Bishops
;
but
when
we
were
once
come
to
the
true
King
and
Bishop
(
Christ
)
neither
has
the
Emperour
any
longer
assum'd
the
name
of
a
Bishop
,
nor
the
Bishop
the
regal
dignity
.
For
although
his
Members
,
that
is
of
a
true
King
and
Bishop
,
are
magnificently
said
according
to
the
participation
of
his
nature
,
to
have
assum'd
both
in
a
sacred
generosity
,
that
the
Regality
and
Priesthood
may
subsist
together
;
yet
Christ
mindful
of
the
frailty
of
humane
nature
,
tempering
with
a
glorious
Dispensation
what
might
conduce
to
the
salvation
of
his
People

so
distinguisht

Offices
of
both
Powers

desirous
his
Followers
should
be
sav'd
by
wholesome
Humility
,
and
not
again
betray'd
by
humane
Pride
,
both
that
Christian
Emperours
should
need
Bishops
for
eternal
life
,
and
Bishops
in
the
conduct
of
the
temporal
things
should
use

Imperial

that
the
spiritual
action
might
be
distant
from
carnal
assaults

he

is
a
Souldier

should
not

himself
with

and
on
the
other
side

he
who
is
entangled

business
should
not

modesty

both
degrees
might

Leo
;
As
the
Bishop
has
no
power
to
look
into
the
Palace
,
and
meddle
with
regal
dignity
,
so
neither
has
the
Emperour
to
look
into
the
Church
,
Bishops
are
therefore
set
over
Churches
,
abstaining
from
the
business
of
the
Comwonwealth
,
that
Princes
in
like
manner
may
abstain
from
Ecclesiastical
matters
,
It
is
to
be
noted
that
there
are
two
Persons
by
which
the
World
is
governed
,
the
Royal
and
the
Sacerdotal
.
As
Kings
preside
in
the
affairs
of
the
World
,
so
Priests
in
what
belongs
to
God
.
It
belongs
to
Kings
to
inflict
corporal
,
to
Priests
to
inflict
spiritual
punishment
.
—
He
carries
the
Sword
for
punishment
of
the
bad
and
praise
of
the
good
:
these
(
Preists
)
have
the
Keys
to
exclude
the
excommunicate
,
and
reconcile
the
penitent
.
The
holy
Church
of
God
is
not
govern'd
by
worldly
Laws
,
she
has
no
Sword
but
the
Spiritual
,
with
which
she
doth
not
kill
but
quicken
.

in

of
his
confession
was
made
Porter

,
and
had
power
to
bind
and
loose
O

God
has
committed
the
Empire
to
you
,
and
entrusted
us
with
what
belongs
to
the
Church
:
And
as
he
who
looks
upon
your
Empire
with
envious
Eyes
contradicts
the
divine
Ordination
;
so
do
you
take
heed
that
by
drawing
affairs
of
the
Church
to
you
,
you
incur
a
great
crime
.
It
is
written
,
give
what
is
and
what
is

to
God

Wherefore
neither
is
it
lawful
for
us
to
take
an
Empire
on
Earth
,
neither
does
the
Power
of
Sacrifices
and

Arms.
The
Spiritual
Key
extends
not
it self

Lord
makes
not
a
Prince
,
not
a

commands
him
to
be

There
are
secular
Officers
by
whom
Temporal
things
,
and

Officers
by
whom
Spiritual
things
are
managed
.
Wherefore
the
material
Sword
is
given
to
carnal
,
and
the
Spiritual
to
Spiritual
Officers
;
and
as
what
belongs
to
the
Church
is
not
proper
for
Kings
,
so
neither
ought
the
Bishop
to
meddle
with
what
belongs
to
Kings
.
Which
because
(
who
represents

men

did

us'd

cut

But
now
there
are
two
Rods
,
one
of
the
Kings
of
Gentiles
,
another
of
the
Disciples
of
Christ
:
The
Rod
of
of
the
Kings
of
Gentiles
is
the
Rod
of
Dominion
,
the
Rod
of
the
Disciples
of
Christ
is
the
Rod
of
Direction
,
the
Rod
of
Pastoral
duty
solicitously
watching
over
the
cure
of
Souls
:
The
Rod
which
is
of
Dominion
,
is
not
granted
to
the
Ministers
of
the
Gospel
of
Peace
,
and
that
is
forbidden
here
,
Between
the
Kingdom
and
Priesthood
the
proper
Offices
of
each
are
distinguisht
,
that
the
King
may
make
use
of
the
Arms
of
the
World
,
and
the
Priest
be
girt
with
the
Sword
of
the
Spirit
,
which
is
the
Word
of
God
.
—
If
any
Object
that
Pope
engaged
himself
often
in
War
,
who
nevertheless
is
a
Saint
;
I
say
what
I
think
,
that
neither
obtained
the
Apostolical
Principality
because
he
denied
Christ
,
nor
deserved
the
Oracle
of
Prophecy
because
defiled
another
mans
Bed
.
onely
corporeal
punishment
is
inflicted
,
by
other
Spiritual
precisely
.
Granting
that
Christ
had
temporal
authority
and
plwer
,
yet
gave
it
not
to
I
answer
with
by
this
is
not
understood
any
power
given
but
Spiritual
to
absolve
from
the
bond
of
Sins
:
and
it
were
foolish
to
understand
a
power
given
to
absolve
from
the
Bond
of
Debt
.
was
given
spiritual
power
onely
to
remit
sins
,
nor
can
be
do
any
thing
in
temporals
,
but
It
is
to
be
understood
that
Christ
had
a
threefold
power
over
bodies
,
souls
,
and
temporal
goods
.
The
first
he
us'd
by
curing
infirmities
,
The
second
Spiritual
,
he
both
us'd
and
delegated
as
much
as
is
necessary
and
expedient
for
the
good
of
Souls
.
The
third
He
neither
us'd
nor
gave
,
but
rather
forbad
both
to
and
the
other
Apostles
as
is
said
:
In
the
Commission
given
to
his
Vicar
,
we
read
not
temporal
,
but
onely
spiritual
power
committed
to
him
.
I
will
give
Thee
the
keys
of
the
Kingdom
of
Heaven
,
he
said
not
,
and
Dominion
over
worldly
things
:
Wherefore
he
presently
adds
,
as
explicating
himself
to
mean
onely
spiritual
power
,
Whatever
you
shall
bind
,
That
the
pope
is
Vicar
of
Christ
,
is
nothing
to
purpose
to
make
us
believe
he
has
power
given
him
to
rule
all
the
World
in
temporals
.
It
rather
perswades
us
such
power
was
not
given
him
,
because
Christ
refus'd
it
,
and
as
he
was
man
had
it
not
in
the
World
;
for
after
the
Resurrection
't
was
said
all
power
is
given
me
,
But
in
this
World
he
was
subject
to
secular
powers
.
Wherefore
he
left
the
Pope
Vicar
of
that
Kingdom
which
was
given
him
by
his
Father
while
he
liv'd
on
Earth
;
namely
,
the
spiritual
Kingdom
over
his
Sheep
,
Otherwise
if
he
be
the
Vicar
of
Christ
absolutely
according
to
all
the
power
which
Christ
had
,
he
should
have
power
over
Angels
and
the
Blessed
,
which
is
ridiculous
.
These
powers
are
different
from
one
another
,
and
no
man
can
usurp
either
at
his
pleasure
;
and
to
think
and
teach
otherwise
is
most
seditious
and
most
horrible
.
Whence
I
conclude
't
is
Heresie
and
Madness
,
to
say
that
the
universal
Administration
of
Temporals
is
or
can
be
in
the
Pope
.
Whence
it
appears
't
is
a
fable
,
and
invention
that
is
writ
in
the
Decretals
,
that
Popes
have
the

such
a

that
they

The
force
indeed
of
this
power
past
into
the
other
Apostles
,
and
the
Constitution
of
this
Decree
descended
to
all
the
Princes
of
the
Church
;
but
't
is
not
without
cause
that
what
is
intimated
to
all
is
commanded
to
one
.
For
this
is
therefore
particularly
entrusted
to
because
the
example
of
is
propos'd
to
all
the
Governors
of
the
Church

Christ
as
man
while
he
liv'd
on
Earth
neither
had
nor
would
have
Dominion
meerly
temporal
over
any
Province
or
Town
:
But
the
Pope
is
the
Vicar
of
Christ
,
and
represents
Christ
to
us
as
he
was
while
he
liv'd
amongst
men
;
Wherefore
the
Pope
as
Christ's
Vicar
,
and
consequently
as
Pope
,
has
not
Dominion
meerly
temporal
over
any
Province
or
Town
.

Thou
hast
Crowned
him
with
honour
and
glory
,
and
set
him
over
all
the
works
of
thy
hands

For
in
that
he
subjected

he

him

When

shall
have
evacuated

is

in

and
in

Knowing
that
the
Father
had
given
all
things
into
his
hands
,
For
the
Father
judges
no
man
,
but
has
given
all
judgment
to
the
Son
;
he
has
given
him
power
to

is
the

on

,

of

of

The
Lord
is

I

him

nature

whom
he
made
Heir
of
all
things
;
that
is
,
made
Lord
of
the
whole
World
;
but
how
did
he
make
him
Lord
?
Namely
as
man
,
in
the
second
Psalm
he
speaks
to
him
,
Ask
of
me
and
I
will
give
thee
the
Gentiles
for
thy
Inheritance
.
upon
the
same
place
;
Whom
the
Father
appointed
according
to
the
humanity
the
immutable
Heir
of
all
things
;
that
is
,
possessor
of
all
creatures
.
upon
the
same
place
too
;
God
the
Father
apointed
his
Son
Heir
of
all
things
,
that
is
of
the
whole
World
or
all
creatures
,
not
onely
according
to
the
Divinity
in
which
he
is
coeternal
to
his
Father
,
and
coequal
in
the
Omnipotence
of
the
Deity
,
and
in
which
he
eternally
possesses
all
things
with
his
Father
;
but
rather
according
to
the
humanity
assum'd
by
the
word
he
is
appointed
Lord
and
Heir
over
all
creatures
,
as
God
the
Father
promis'd
him
saying
,
And
the
Son
himself
rising
from
the
dead
speaks
thus
in
the
person
of
the
humanity
;
All
power
is
given
me
in
Heaven
and
in
Earth
.
He
who
according
to
his
Divinity
had
alwayes
with
the
Father
and
Holy
Ghost
power
over
all
things
;
now
also
according
to
his
humanity
has
receiv'd
power
over
all
things
as
Man
.
He
who
lately
suffer'd
let
him
Rule
both
in
Heaven
and
in
Earth
,
and
be
believed

God
and
Lord
,
not
of
the
Jews
onely
but
of
all
Nations

Why
do
you
break
such
a
promise
,
and
confine
to
a
kind
of
Prison
the
vast
extent
of
Kingdoms
?
why
do
you
strive
to
hinder
so
much
goodness
?
why
are
you
against
our
Saviours
merits
?
Permit
the
Son
to
enjoy
what
was
granted
,
permit
the
Father
to
perform
what
he
promised
.
Why
do
you
set
bounds
,
and
fix
Limits
,
when
the
whole
Earth
was
promised
by
the
Father
?
There
is
not
any
thing
in
any
part
of
the
Earth
which
seems
exempt
from
his
Possession
.
The
whole
Earth
with
its
Nations
were
given
him
.
Who
has
made
me
Judge
or
Divider
betwixt
you
?
My
Kingdom
is
not
of
this
World
,
't
is
not
by
way
of
Election
or
Succession
,
nor
governed
as
Worldly
Kingdomes
are
by
Treasuries
,
and
Officers
,
and
Armies
.
the
Kingdom
of
Christ
is
therefore
said
not
to
be
of
this
world
,
because
at
that
time
most
worldly
Kingdomes
were
got
by
injustice
,
and
governed
by
wicked
and
idolatrous
Laws
,
and
such
the
Kingdom
of
Christ
was
not
.
not
onely
of
this
World
,
but
of
Heaven
and
Earth
and
all
Creatures
,
worldly
Kingdomes
are
over
Bodies
,
his
over
Souls
;
worldly
Kingdomes
require
obedience
to
a
Temporal
Prince
,
his
knowledge
of
,
and
obedience
to
the
Prince
of
Heaven
:
worldly
Kingdomes
are
extinguisht
by
death
,
or
War
his
is
perpetual
and
immortal
what
Christ
refus'd
was
to
be
made
Arbitrator
betwixt
the
two
Brethren
.
he
was
no
Ordinary
Judge
,
whose
Duty
and
Obligation
it
was
to
determine
civil
Controversies
,
but
that
his
Jurisdiction
was
Voluntary
and
Arbitrary
:
Christ
meant
his
judicial
power
was
not
by
humane
concession
Christ
came
not
into
the
World
to
judge
temporal
things
,
though
he
had
full
power
so
to
do
have
refus'd
dividing
the
Inheritance
,
because
Division
is
the
work
of
the
Devil
.
The
Hyacinth
signifies
Heaven
;
remember
therefore
Christ
saying
my
Kingdom
is
not
of
this
World
,
for
Christ
is
not
an
Earthly
,
but
a
Heavenly
King
,
and
has
all
creatures
under
his
feet
,
acknowledges
himself
a
King
,
but
a
Heavenly
King
'
;
which
elsewhere
answering
Pilate
,
he
says
more
clearly
,
my
Kingdom
is
not
of
this
World
.

Kingdoms

of

and
those
who

commit
and

themselves
to
him
.
This
Kingdom
too
is
said
to
have
a
beginning
;
for
of
this
in
the
second
Psalm
,
Ask
,
says
he
,
of
me
and
I
will
give
thee
the

for
thy

to
his

all

me
by

more

Come
to
the
Kingdom
which
is
not

;
come
by

and
be
not

The
prophecy
says
of
God
the
Father
,
but
I
am
appointed
by
him
a
King
over
his
holy
hill
:
But
that
and
that
Hill
is
not
of
this
World
.
For
what
is
his
Kingdom
,
but
those
who
believe
in
him
?
To
whom
he
says
,
you
are
not
of
this
World
,
as
I
am
not
of
this
World
,
&c.
It
is
plainly
said
of
the
Kingdom
of
Christ
,
not
according
to
that
in
the
beginning
,
where
God
the
Word
was
with
God
,
for
there
none
ever
doubted
but
he
is
King
for
all
Ages
,
but
according
to
the
Assumption
of
Humanity
,
and
Sacrament
of
Mediatour
,
and
Incarnation
of
a
Virgin
,
that
it
shall
have
no
end
;
where
the
Angel
speaking
to
says
,
and
he
will
give
him
the
Kingdom
of
his
Father
,
and
he
shall
Reign
in
the
House
of
for
ever
.
—
But
this
Kingdom
in
the
House
of
and
on
the
Throne
of
can
it
be
understood
otherwise
then
in
the
Church
,
and
that
People
which
is
his
Kingdom
?
of
which
dlso
the
Apostle
says
,
when
he
shall
have
deliver'd
up
his
Kingdom
to
God
the
Father
,
that
is
;
brought
his
Saints
to
tne
Contemplation
of
his
Father
.
He
represented
figuratively
the
people
of
which
people
were
to
lose
their
Kingdom
,
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
by
the
New
Testament
being
to
Reign
,
not
carnally
,
but
spiritually
.
was
not
he
a
King
who
fear'd
to
be
made
a
King
?
plainly
he
was
,
but
not
such
a
King
as
could
be
made
by
men
,
but
such
a
King
as
could
give
Kingdoms
to
men
.
—
He
came
now
not
to
Reign
now
,
as
he
will
in
that
Kingdom
of
which
we
say
,
let
thy
Kingdom
come
.
He
alwaies
Reigns
with
his
Father
,
according
as
he
is
the
Son
of
God
,
the
Word
of
God
,
the
Word
by
which
all
things
are
made
.
But
the
Prophets
foretold
his
Kingdom
also
according
to
this
,
that
he
was
made
Man
,
and
made
those
who
believe
Christians
.
For
there
shall
be
a
Kingdom
of
Christians
,
which
is
now
a
gathering
,
now
making
,
is
now
burying
with
the
bloud
of
Christ
.
This
Kingdom
will
one
day
be
manifest
,
when
the
brightness
of
the
Saints
will
be
manifested
after
the
judgment
by
him
made
,
which
judgment
he
said
before
that
the
Son
of
Man
should
make
:
Of
which
Kingdom
also
the
Apostle
saith
,
when
he
shall
have
deliver'd
up
his
Kingdom
to
God
his
Father
:
Whence
also
he
says
himself
,
Come
you
blessed
of
my
Father
,
possesse
the
Kingdom
prepared
for
you
from
the
beginning
of
the
World
.
But
his
Disciples
and
the
multitude
believing
in
him
,
thought
he
came
now
to
Reign
.
This
is
for
them
to
take
and
make
him
King
,
to
prevent
the
time
which
he
kept
secret
to
himself
to
declare
seasonably
at
the
end
of
the
World
.
This
therefore
is
the
King
set
over
the
holy
hill
of
God
,
declaring
the
Command
of
the
Lord
,
not
over
that
hill
of
the
Earthly
City
,
that
deplor'd
,
and
homicide
,
and
parricide
but
that
which
is
in
Heaven
;
that
which
is
our
Mother
,
the
City
of
the
great
King
,
whose
Inhabitants
,
as
I
conceive
,
those
at
this
day
are
who
rose
in
the
Passion
of
our
Lord
.
That
our
Lord
Jesus
was
descended
from
no
man
doubts
But
I
ask
how
God
gave
him
the
Throne
of
his
Father
when
he
Reign'd
not
in
nay
,
consented
not
to
the
multitude
which
would
have
made
him
King
;
besides
protested
to
the
face
of
Pilate
,
my
Kingdom
is
not
of
this
world
.
—
But
we
know
a
was
signified
different
from
that
which
is
now
,
and
in
which
Reign'd
,
much
more
Noble
and
more
Rich
,
and
this
I
conceive
was
meant
here
,
by
a
manner
of
speech
usual
in
Scripture
,
where
the
Sign
is
often
put
for
the
thing
signify'd
.
God
did
then
give
him
the
Seat
of
his
Father
,
when
he
was
by
him
made
King
over
his
holy
hill
.
And
he
seems
more
plainly
to
declare
what
Kingdom
it
is
of
which
he
speaks
,
by
this
that
he
says
,
not
in
but
over
For
peradventure
it
was
therefore
said
above
,
that
Reign'd
in
but
his
Kingdom
is
over
of
whom
it
was
said
to
of
your
seed
I
will
place
upon
your
Seat
.
Of
whom
it
was
said
by
another
Prophet
,
He
shall
sit
upon
the
Throne
of
and
over
his
Kingdom
.
You
see
't
is
every
where
over
,
or
upon
.
Over
upon
his
Seat
,
upon
his
Throne
,
over
his
Kingdom
.
Our
Lord
God
therefore
will
give
him
not
the
typical
,
but
the
true
Seat
of
not
a
temporal
,
but
an
eternal
,
not
an
earthly
,
but
an
heavenly
one
.
And
he
shall
Reign
in
the
House
of
for
ever
,
and
of
his
Kingdom
there
shall
be
no
end
.
Here
too
,
if
we
understand
the
temporal
House
of
how
shall
he
Reign
for
ever
in
that
which
is
not
for
ever
?
We
must
therefore
seek
an
eternal
House
of
in
which
he
may
Reign
for
ever
,
of
whose
Kingdom
there
shall
be
no
end
.
according
to
this
that
the
Word
was
made
Flesh
,
he
began
to
Reign
in
Believers
by
Faith
in
his
Incarnation

First
,
I
presuppose
what
is
known
even
to
the
Vulgar
,
that
the
Imperial
Cessitude
is
independent
of
the
Sacerdotal
power
,
having
an
dependence
on
God
.
Wherefore
't
is
plain
,
that
the
Temporal
Authority
of
a
Monarch
,
is
derived
to
him
without
any
mediation
from
the
fountain
of
Vniversal
Authority

by

reasons

If

were

to
Obedience

in
vertue
of
the
consent
to
the

,
their
Disobedience
would
be
said
to
be
a
breach
of
their
agreement
and
promise
;
but
not
properly

directly
of
the

For
the

Kings
themselves
,
in
whom
this
crime
of
prevarication
has
no
place
:
for
it
was
wisely
said
,
that
he
is
an
impious
man
who
saies
to
the
King
,
You
do
wickedly
.
To
Thee
only
have
I
sinned
;
for
he
was
a
King
subject
himself
to
no
Laws
,
because
Kings
are
free
from
the
bonds
of
delinquency
.
For
no
Laws
punish
them
who
are
safe
by
the
power
of
their
Empire
,
and
he
sinned
not
to
Man
,
to
whom
he
was
not
accountable
.
They
who
are
subject
to
Laws
dare
to
deny
their
sin
,
and
scorn
to
ask
pardon
,
which
he
ask'd
who
was
subject
to
no
humane
Laws
.
For
supported
by
his
regal
dignity
,
as
Lord
of
the
Laws
,
he
was
not
guilty
to
the
Law
;
he
was
accountable
to
God
alone
,
because
he
is
Lord
of
Power
.
Thee
alone
A
King
,
though
he
have
Laws
in
his
power
,
and
may
sin
without
punishment
,
is
nevertheless
subject
to
God
.
I
was
a
King
and
feared
no
other
man
;
for
he
had
no
other
above
him
.
Thee
alone
have
I
sinned
Impose
upon
your self
a
necessity
to
keep
the
Laws
,
since
you
have
not
on
earth
who
may
correct
you
.
Isidor

People
that
sin
fear
the
Judge
,
and
are
by
the
Laws
restrained
from
their
own
harm
.
Kings
,
unless
they
be
restrain'd
by
the
only
fear
of
God
and
Hell
,
run
headlong
on
,
and
from
the
of
Licentious
liberty
fall
into
all
sorts
of
Vice
.
Whoever
lives
under
the
Law
,
when
he
offends
,
sins
against
God
,
and
also
against
the
Laws
of
the
World
.
But
this
King
being
under
none
but
God
alone
,
and
only
fearing
him
above
his
own
power
,
sinned
to
God
alone
.
Didymus
As
he
was
a
King
he
was
not
subject
to
humane
Laws
,
wherefore
he
sinned
not
against
them
who
made
the
Laws
,
nor
committed
this
evil
against
any
of
them
:
but
as
to
his
Regal
dignity
,
if
he
would
be
Vertuous
he
was
subject
to
the
Divine
Law
,
and
therefore
sinned
to
God
alone
.
Lactantius
Let
not
bad
Princes
,
and
unjust
Persecutors
,
who
scorn
and
scoff
at
the
Name
of
God
,
think
they
shall
scape
without
Punishment
—
for
they
shall
be
punisht
by
the
Judgment
of
God
—
He
commands
us
patiently
to
expect
that
day
of
Divine
Judgment
,
in
which
he
will
honour
or
punish
every
one
according
to
his
deserts
.
Gregory
If
any
of
us
,
O
King
,
will
stray
from
the
path
of
Justice
,
he
may
be
punisht
by
you
.
But
if
you
leave
it
your self
,
who
shall
reprehend
you
?
We
speak
to
you
,
and
if
you
please
you
hear
us
:
if
you
will
not
,
who
shall
condemn
you
,
but
He
who
has
declar'd
himself
to
be
Justice
?
Wise
men
,
say
this
Prince
,
is
subject
to
the
Laws
and
Judgment
of
none
but
God
,
who
made
him
King
in
that
Kingdom
which
his
Father
allotted
him
:
And
if
he
will
for
this
or
any
other
cause
,
he
may
at
his
pleasure
go
to
the
Synod
,
and
if
he
will
not
,
he
may
freely
dismiss
it
.
And
as
he
ought
not
,
whatever
he
do
,
be
excommunicated
by
his
own
Bishops
;
so
by
other
Bishops
he
cannot
be
judged
,
since
he
ought
be
subject
to
the
principality
of
God
alone
,
by
whom
alone
he
could
be
placed
in
his
own
principality
.
That
the
multitude
is
not
to
be
Excommunicated
,
nor
the
Prince
of
the
people
.
Euthimius
Being
a
King
,
and
having
you
alone
for
Judge
of
the
sins
I
commit
,
I
seem
to
have
sinn'd
to
you
alone
;
that
is
,
I
am
subject
to
you
alone
as
my
Judge
;
of
all
the
rest
I
my self
am
Lord
,
and
in
respect
of
my
power
,
it
seems
,
I
may
do
whatever
I
list
.
Haymo
I
have
sinned
to
Thee
alone
:
because
being
a
King
,
none
is
to
punish
my
sin
but
you
alone
.
That
the
Prince
is
free
from
the
Law
,
Answers
,
That
the
Prince
is
free
from
the
Law
,
for
as
much
as
concerns
the
Co-active
power
—
because
none
can
pronounce
sentence
of
Condemnation
against
him
.
That
the
King
has
no
man
who
can
judge
his
actions
—
But
is
subject
to
the
Law
,
as
to
the
directive
power
,
by
his
own
proper
will
,
I
have
sinn'd
to
Thee
alone
:
because
there
is
no
other
above
me
who
can
punish
me
.
For
I
am
a
King
,
and
none
is
above
me
but
you
alone
.
A
King
is
above
all
,
and
therefore
to
be
judged
by
God
alone
,
since
he
has
not
any
man
who
can
judge
his
actions
,
nor
is
to
be
punisht
by
man
.
But
if
any
of
the
People
sin
,
they
sin
both
against
God
and
the
King
.
I
have
sinn'd
to
Thee
alone
as
my
Judge
,
and
who
has
power
to
punish
:
for
he
had
sinned
against
Vrias
,
and
others
slain
upon
this
occasion
.
Yet
because
he
was
a
King
he
had
no
superiour
Judge
to
punish
him
but
God
.
Whilst
no
person
is
found
in
the
world
who
is
not
subject
to
the
Laws
of
the
world
,
and
by
that
subjection
kept
in
awe
;
Kings
alone
,
as
being
above
Laws
,
and
reserved
to
the
Divine
Judgment
,
are
not
aw'd
by
the
Laws
of
the
world
.
Witness
that
both
King
and
Prophet
,
I
have
sinned
to
Thee
alone
.
I
have
sinn'd
to
Thee
alone
as
my
Judge
,
and
who
has
power
to
punish
me
,
because
Thou
alone
art
above
me
who
canst
judge
my
Crimes
.
Wherefore
leaving
them
,
we
must
go
the
common
way
with
the
Fathers
of
the
Church
,
who
say
,
that
therefore
us'd
these
words
,
because
,
being
a
Soveraign
King
,
he
was
subject
to
none
but
God
,
accountable
to
the
Laws
of
none
,
and
none
but
God
could
punish
his
sin
.
For
a
King
though
he
be
subject
to
the
Directive
power
of
the
Law
,
yet
is
not
to
the
Coactive
.
Job

For
if
a
King
or
Prince
will
not
willingly
obey
the
Law
,
who
can
oblige
,
or
by
force
constrain
him
?
—
Yet
let
Princes
understand
at
last
,
that
if
they
do
not
of
their
own
will
keep
the
Law
,
they
shall
render
an
account
to
the
Supream
King
,
and
be
punisht
for
the
Violation
of
Justice
.
I
have
sinn'd
to
Thee
alone
,
as
alone
knowing
,
or
having
power
to
punish
his
sin
who
was
a
King
,
and
had
no
Superior
—
.
None
can
say
to
a
King
,
or
call
Judges
wicked
,
unless
he
will
be
thought
wicked
himself
,
as
in
this
place
note

power
That

It
is

for
a
man
,
to
cure
a
Man

Authority

which
a

his
Sheep

For
here
it
is

to
bind

from

and

;
There
the

and
power
of

Cor.
Not
by
right
of
Apostleship
We
must
obey
the
Bishop
as
the
King
,
nay
the
Bishop
less
than
the
King
,
for
he
is
over
the
unwilling
,
the
Bishop
over
the
willing
.
One
subjects
by
Fear
,
the
other
is
given
to
Service
;
One
imprisons
the
Body
to
death
,
the
other
preserves
the
Soul
to
life
.
We
ought
not
to
constrain
by
Force
or
Necessity
,
but
perswade
by
Reason
and
Example
of
our
lives
.
Our
Law
and
Law-maker
have
especially
provided
,
that
the
flock
be
fed
not
by
constraint
,
but
freely
and
willingly
.
These
things
had
in
his
mind
,
as
those
who
were
privy
to
his
secrets
discovered
;
but
he
was
restrained
by
the
clemency
of
God
,
and
the
tears
of
the
Christians
,
whereof
many
,
and
by
many
had
,
now
been
shed
,
since
this
was
their
only
remedy
against
a
Persecutor
.
Jo.
Chrysost
will
not
the
Bishop
endure
who
has
so
many
not
of
his
houshold
Family
,
but
whose
Obedience
is
in
their
own
power
.
The
Emperour
has
command
over
the
whole
world
,
the
Bishop
is
Bishop
only
of
one
City
,
and
yet
he
has
as
much
more
care
as
there
is
difference
betwixt
a
River
stir'd
with
the
wind
,
and
the
Sea
swelling
and
raging
.
Why
so
?
because
there
are
there
more
helps
,
since
all
things
are
perform'd
by
Laws
and
Commands
,
here
is
no
such
thing
;
for
it
is
not
lawful
to
command
by
Authority
.
A
Father
both
by
Natural
and
Civil
Laws
,
uses
his
Child
with
much
freedome
.
If
he
instruct
him
against
his
will
,
if
he
strike
him
none
hinders
him
,
nor
dares
the
Son
himself
look
up
.
A
Priest
has
much
difficulty
:
for
first
he
must
rule
those
that
are
willing
to
be
ruled
,
and
whom
by
his
government
he
is
to
please
.
Again
,
We
domineer
not
over
your
Faith
,
Beloved
,
nor
order
these
things
by
the
right
of
command
and
dominion
.
To
us
is
commended
the
speech
of
Doctrine
,
not
the
Authority
of
Power
and
Principality
.
We
hold
the
place
of
Counsellors
and
Exhortors
:
He
who
counsels
when
he
delivers
his
opinion
,
forces
not
the
hearer
to
accept
it
,
but
leaves
in
his
power
the
free
choice
of
what
is
to
be
done
.
I
omit
to
say
that
a
Bishop
cannot
with
truth
be
called
a
Prince
.
Why
?
Because
it
is
in
the
Power
of
their
Subjects
to
obey
,
or
not
.
External
Judges
when
they
find
wicked
men
who
have
transgrest
the
Laws
,
shew
themselves
endued
with
great
Power
and
Authority
,
and
force
them
to
change
their
manners
whether
they
will
or
no.
But
here
we
must
not
use
force
but
only
perswade
,
and
by
that
means
make
him
become
better
whose
cure
we
have
undertaken
.
For
neither
have
we
any
Power
given
by
Law
to
force
Delinquents
,
and
if
we
had
,
we
have
not
whereon
to
exercise
this
force
and
Power
,
since
Christ
gives
an
eternal
Kingdom
to
those
,
who
not
by
force
but
by
a
firm
resolution
of
the
soul
abstain
from
sin
.
Wherefore
there
is
need
of
much
art
,
that
Christians
who
are
ill-affected
will
perswade
themselves
that
they
ought
submit
to
the
cure
of
Priests
.
Obey
your
Prelates
&c.
You
see
that
when
an
Prince
is
contemned
,
he
ought
not
return
revenge
,
but
all
his
revenge
is
to
weep
and
sigh
.
The
King
forces
,
the
Priest
exhorts
;
He
with
necessity
,
this
by
counsel
;
He
has
sensible
,
this
spiritual
arms
,
The
material
sword
used
in
the
Old
Testament
by
was
a
figure
of
the
degradations
and
excommunications
to
be
exercised
in
the
New
,
when
in
the
discipline
of
the
Church
,
the
visible
sword
should
cease
.
Jesus
taking
occasion
from
the
two
Brothers
,
who
sought
to
be
advanc'd
above
the
other
Apostles
with
indignation
of
the
rest
,
settles
the
Rule
of
justice
to
the
faithfull
,
how
a
man
may
obtain
the
first
place
with
God
.
The
Princes
of
the
Gentiles
not
content
only
to
Rule
their
Subjects
,
seek
violently
to
Command
them
.
But
with
you
who
are
mine
,
this
shall
not
be
.
Least
they
perhaps
who
seem
to
have
Principality
in
the
Church
,
should
domineer
over
their
Brethren
,
or
exercise
power
upon
them
.
For
as
all
Carnal
things
are
by
necessity
not
willingness
,
and
Spiritual
by
willingness
not
necessity
;
so
the
principality
of
Spiritual
Princes
ought
to
be
placed
in
the
Love
,
not
Corporal
fear
of
their
Subjects
.
This
I
say
not
to
debase
the
Ecclesiastical
Principality
.
For
it
is
sometimes
fit
,
according
to
the
Apostolical
Instruction
,
publickly
to
rebuke
sinners
that
the
rest
may
be
afraid
.
It
is
sometimes
fit
he
should
use
his
Power
and
deliver
the
Sinner
over
to
Satan
to
the
destruction
of
the
flesh
,
that
his
spirit
may
be
saved
in
the
day
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
.
Yet
this
is
seldome
to
be
done
.
For
the
Vnquiet
are
to
be
reprehended
,
the
Pusillanimous
to
be
comforted
,
the
Weak
to
be
sustained
,
Magnanimity
shew'd
to
all
.
Against
Weapons
and
Souldiers
of
the
I
may
grieve
,
I
may
weep
,
I
may
sigh
.
My
Weapons
are
my
Fears
:
for
such
are
the
defence
of
a
Priest
.
To
resist
in
any
other
manner
I
neither
ought
,
nor
can
.
could
not
give
what
he
had
not
,
what
he
had
that
he
gave
the
care
,
as
I
said
,
over
the
Churches
.
Did
he
give
Dominion
too
?
Hear
himself
;
Not
domineering
,
saies
he
,
in
the
Clergy
,
but
being
made
the
Example
of
the
flock
.
And
that
you
may
not
think
this
was
said
only
for
humility
,
not
for
truth
:
it
is
the
saying
of
our
Lord
in
the
Gospel
,
The
Kings
of
Gentiles
have
dominion
over
them
,
and
who
have
Power
upon
them
are
called
beneficial
,
and
infers
,
but
you
not
so
.
'T
is
plain
Dominion
is
forbid
to
Apostles
,
Go
you
now
and
dare
to
usurp
either
with
Dominion
the
Apostleship
,
or
with
the
Apostleship
Dominion
.
You
are
plainly
forbid
the
one
.
If
you
will
have
both
together
,
you
will
lose
both
.
Otherwise
think
not
your self
exempted
from
the
number
of
those
of
whom
God
complains
;
so
they
have
reigned
but
not
by
me
.
They
have
been
Princes
,
and
I
knew
them
not
.
Now
if
you
will
reign
without
God

To
all
these
things
may
be
said
,
that
they
are
to
be
understood
not
of
the
judgement
of
Coaction
,
but
the
judgement
of
Discretion
;
nor
that
they
belong
to
the
Clergy
,
not
by
natural
and
divine
Right
,
but
humane
Laws

and
concession
of
Kings

who
teach
the

make
Laws
in

according

which
Princes
are

to
judge

govern

I
insist
not
upon
it
,
because
they
say
it
purely
,
voluntarily
,

without
alledging
Authentical
Scripture

The
Church
cannot
temporally
constrain
Princes
to
reform
these
things
.
The

as
Vicar
of
Christ
has
Power
of
Excommunication
,
but
not
to
inflict
any
greater
punishment
.
These
are
not
material
Keys

but
signifie
metaphorically
therefore
receiv'd
Power
,
not
any
earthly
Power
that
he
could
give
or
take
away
,
or
alienate

but
the
Power
to
bind
and
loose
,
to
remit

retain
sins
,
to
open

and
this
not

The
Prelates
of
the
Church
owe
you
all
Obedience
.
The
Bishops
themselves
are
to
obey
your
Laws
,
and
that
,
because
there
are
Two
principal
Powers
by
which
the
World
is
Governed
,
the
Sacred
Authority
of
Bishops
,
and
Regal
Power
.
Bishops
are
subject
to
the
Laws
of
the
Prince
in
what
concerns
Public
Discipline
,
and
Princes
to
Bishops
in
the
dispensation
of
the
Mysteries
and
Sacraments
,
It
is
to
be
noted
that
there
are
Two
Persons
by
which
this
world
is
governed
,
The
as
Kings
are
Chief
in
Worldly
,
so
Priests
in
Divine
matters
.
—
Therefore
though
by
his
Regal
Vnction
he
were
over
Priests
and
Prophets
in
affairs
of
the
World
,
yet
was
under
them
in
those
of
God
.
whereof
one
being
Eternal
,
the
other
Temporal
happiness
;
because
the
Eternal
happiness
is
the
Supream
and
Last
end
of
all
things
,
Temporal
happiness
must
be
subordinate
to
it
:
And
because
,
according
to
where
the
Ends
are
subordinate
,
the
Faculties
likewise
are
subordinate
,
the
Civil
Power
which
aims
only
at
Temporal
happiness
must
be
subordinate
,
and
subject
to
the
Spiritual
,
which
looks
after
Eternal
.
Every
Commonwealth
must
have
Means
sufficient
to
attain
its
end
,
and
the
End
of
this
Spiritual
Commonwealth
,
which
we
call
the
Church
,
being
the
Salvation
of
Souls
,
the
Church
were
not
perfect
in
her
kind
if
She
wanted
sufficient
Means
to
bring
men
to
Salvation
.
And
because
Wicked
Princes
may
be
a
great
obstacle
to
the
Salvation
of
Souls
,
the
Church
would
want
sufficient
Means
to
attain
her
End
,
if
She
had
not
Power
to
remedy
this
inconveniency
,
and
Depose
them
when
they
are
Incorrigibly
obstinate
.
Wicked
Princes
,
Wicked
Popes
It
is
no
wonder
if
in
that
case
there
be
no
efficacious
Humane
remedy
in
the
Church
,
since
its
safety
principally
depends
,
not
on
Humane
industry
,
but
the
Divine
protection
,
Its
King
being
GOD
;
Wherefore
,
though
the
Church
cannot
Depose
the
Pope
,
yet
it
can
,
and
ought
,
pray
that
God
will
provide
a
remedy
.
And
't
is
certain
that
God
will
take
care
of
her
safety
,
and
either
Convert
,
or
take
away
,
such
a
Pope
before
he
have
ruin'd
the
Church
.
Every
Commonwealth
,
because
it
has
Power
sufficient
to
preserve
it self
,
and
bring
its
Subjects
to
Temporal
happiness
,
may
command
another
Commonwealth
,
which
is
not
subject
to
it
,
to
cease
from
doing
injury
to
her
,
and
hinder
her
from
the
prosecution
of
her
just
Ends
,
and
if
it
refuse
to
Obey
,
may
Depose
the
Prince
of
it
,
and
set
up
another
who
will
be
more
Just
,
in
case
there
be
no
other
way
to
avoid
wrong
from
it
.
Therefore
much
more
may
the
Spiritual
Commonwealth
command
the
Temporal
,
which
is
subject
to
it
,
and
Depose
the
Prince
,
in
case
She
cannot
otherwise
compass
Her
End
,
the
Salvation
of
Souls
.
It
is
not
lawful
for
Christians
to
endure
an
Infidel
or
Heretic
Prince
,
of
that
Prince
endeavour
to
draw
his
Subjects
to
Heresie
or
Infidelity
.
But
it
belongs
to
the
Pope
to
judge
whether
he
be
guilty
of
so
drawing
them
or
no
,
wherefore
to
the
Pope
it
belongs
to
Judge
whether
he
ought
to
be
Deposed
or
no.
The
Reason
of
this
Law
was
,
least
by
choosing
a
Stranger
,
they
might
be
brought
into
Idolatry
.
But
there
is
the
same
danger
,
and
the
same
mischief
in
choosing
a
Prince
who
is
not
a
Christian
,
and
remaining
subject
to
one
who
becomes
no
Christian
,
therefore
Christians
are
bound
to
Depose
a
Prince
who
deserts
Christianity
,
and
endeavours
to
pervert
his
Subjects
after
him

resist
the
Ordinance
of

and

Damnation
to

For
that
they
wanted
not
Right
nor
the
Knowledge
of
it
,
is
apparent
by
the
Apostle
,
who
,
bids
the
Christians
appoint
New
Judges
,
and
if
they
could
make
New
Judges
,
they
might
as
well
have
made
New
Kings
if
their
Force
had
been
equal
to
their
Justice
.
Should
we
want
Numbers
or
Forces

we
had
a
mind
to
be

not

Not

expose

For
such

will
be

But
Christians
ought

tolerate

evident
peril
of

where
Divine

we
must

Let
us
imagine
an
Infidel
Prince
,
desirous
to
be
receiv'd
into
the
Church
,
should
speak
in
this
manner
:
I
desire
to
become
a
fellow
Citizen
with
the
Saints
by
Baptism
,
and
promiss
to
submit
my
Scepter
to
Christ
,
and
defend
his
Church
to
my
power
,
and
never
to
break
my
holy
purpose
.
Nevertheless
,
If
I
happen
to
break
my
Word
,
and
become
an
Heretic
,
or
Apostate
,
or
Pagan
,
I
will
not
be
punisht
with
Temporal
Punishments
,
either
by
the
Church
,
or
its
President
,
or
any
but

;
and
if
the
Chief
Governour
of

separate
me
from

Communion
of
the

,
I
will
nevertheless
that
the
Faithful
Sons
of

continue
Faithful
Subjects
to
me
,
and
may
not
be
absolved
from
the
bond
of
their
Obedience

any
.

a

the

nothing

a

I

that

proves
it
in
Epistle
of
the
Book
.
For
we
find
the
Ecclesiastical
Primacy
of
the
Bishop
of
Rome
most
manifestly
founded
on
Scripture
and
Tradition
,
in
which
Primacy
is
contained
most
ample
Power
of
governing
,
binding
and
loosing
whomsoever
,
even
Kings
and
Emperors
:
and
this
neither
Barclay
,
nor
any
Catholick
denies
.
But
out
of
this
principle
is
gathered
plainly
enough
,
that
there
is
in
the
Bishop
of
Rome
a
power
to
dispose
of
temporals
,
even
to
the
deposition
of
those
Kings
and
Emperors
.
For
by
that
spiritual
Power
the
Pope
can
bind
secular
Princes
by
the
bond
of
excommunication
;
by
the
same
he
can
loose
the
people
from
their
Oath
of
Fidelity
and
Obedience
;
he
can
oblige
the
same
People
,
under
pain
of
Excommunication
,
not
to
obey
the
excommunicated
King
,
and
chuse
them
another
.
Besides
,
since
the
end
of
spiritual
government
is
the
gaining
eternal
life
,
which
is
the
supream
and
last
end
to
which
all
other
ends
are
subordinate
;
of
necessity
all
secular
Power
must
be
subject
and
subordinate
to
the
spiritual
power
of
the
supream
Ecclesiastical
Hierarch
;
which
(
secular
power
)
he
is
to
direct
,
and
if
it
deviate
,
correct
and
judge
,
and
in
fine
bring
to
pass
that
it
hinder
not
the
salvation
of
Christian
people
.
And
this
is
the
reason
why
both
Greg.
and
Innocent
when
they
depos'd
Emperors
,
to
shew
they
did
it
justly
,
alledg'd
the
words
of

:
namely
to
signify
that
their

to
dispose
of

,
when
the
salvation
of
souls
,
the
safety
of
Religion
,
and
preservation
of
the
Church
require
it
,
depends
not
on
the
uncertain
opinions
of
men
,
but
the
divine
Ordination
of
Christ
,
the
eternal
King
and
highest
Bishop
,
and
according
to
the
Apostle
The
Ecclesiastical
Primacy
of
the
Pope
,
is
founded
in
Scripture
and
Tradition
,
and
this
Primacy
extends
to
Kings
and
Emperors
,
and
contains
most
ample
power
,
of
governing
,
binding
and
loosing
,
and
this
no
Catholick
denies
.
But
out
of
this
Principle
the
deposing
Power
is
plainly
gathered
.
Bellarmin
;
Because
the
Pope
by
his
spiritual
Power
can
bind
even
Kings
with
the
bond
of
Excommunication
.
And
by
the
same
he
can
loose
people
from
their
Oath
of
Fidelity
and
Obedience
,
and
oblige
them
under
excommunication
not
to
obey
the
former
excommunicated
King
,
but
chuse
them
a
new
one
.

that
by

is
not
understood
any
power
given
,
but
spiritual
,
to
absolve
from
the

of
Sin
,
that
it
were
foolish
to
understand
it
of
a
Power
to
absolve
from

If
the
Pope
have
,
and
that
by
Divine
Right
,
power
to
depose
Princes
in
order
to
spiritual
good
,
this
must
appear
either
by
Scripture
or
Tradition
.
Tradition
is
not
pretended
.
Out
of
Scripture
,
the
two
chief
places
are
those
now
mentioned
,
both
which
he
endeavours
to
shew
are
meant
only
of
spiritual
power
.
He
labours
in
vain
to
prove
these
places
are
meant
of
spiritual
power
for
this
they
freely
grant
him
.
But
,
this
power
which
formally
is
spiritual
,
is
virtually
temporal
,
or
his
the
vertue
to
extend
it self
to
temporals
,
in
as
much
as
is
requisite
to
spiritual
good
.
And
therefore
Argument
is
good
,
because
he
intended
only
to
prove
by
it
that
the
Popes
power
was
formally
spiritual
,
which
is
true
,
and
acknowledged
by
naught
,
because
he
does
not
prove
that
the
Power
is
not
virtually
Temporal
,
and
cannot
extend
to
deposition
,
Coercitive
Civil
,
and
coercitive
spiritual
Power
being
different
and
independent
Powers
,
must
have
distinct
Courts
and
distinct
penalties
.
Wherefore
as
the
Civil
Power
cannot
inflict
a
spiritual
punishment
,
so
neither
can
the
spiritual
Power
inflict
a
civil
punishment
.
That
the
distinction
of
the
two
Courts
,
since
in
the
manner
of
proceeding
,
the
persons
and
causes
brought
before
them
,
and
all
other
formalities
they
may
agree
,
must
be
taken
from
the
difference
of
the
penalties
,
or
nothing
.
Because
no
Commonwealth
,
looking
only
into
nature
,
can
deprive
a
subject
of
other
goods
then
such
as
are
proper
to
that
Commonwealth
;
the
spiritual
can
only
take
away
spiritual
goods
,
as
the
temporal
only
temporal
.
The
two
Powers
are
distinct
,
but
not
wholly
independent
,
when
they
club
into
one
mystical
Body
,
in
which
case
the
temporal
is
subject
to
the
spiritual
,
and
therefore
though
the
temporal
cannot
meddle
with
the
spiritual
,
the
spiritual
may
with
the
temporal
that
Temporal
punishments
are
not
so
proper
to
Temporal
power
,
but
they
may
be
inflicted
by
the
spiritual
.
that
in
Commonwealths
subordinate
,
the
superior
may
deprive
the
subject
not
only
of
the
priviledges
proper
to
it self
,
but
those
also
which
belong
to
the
inferior
Commonwealth
.
An
Ass
may
deny
more
more
than
Aristotle
can
prove
,
that
the
Pope
may
as
well
take
the
life
,
as
Kingdom
of
any
Prince
,
authorize
any
private
man
to
turn
Assassin
,
and
kill
the
King
by
treachery
,
when
he
cannot
be
conveniently
depos'd
.
let
this
pass
as
nothing
to
purpose
:
meer
bugbears
to
render
the
Papacy
odious
,
when
of
so
many
Princes
who
have
been
depos'd
,
so
many
who
have
perisht
by
violent
deaths
,
what
by
the
treachery
of
their
subjects
,
what
by
the
force
of
their
Enemys
,
not
one
has
been
kill'd
by
any
Pope
or
his
command
.
Even
Antipopes
themselves
their
greatest
enemyes
,
have
found
not
only
safety
,
but
gentle
and
favourable
usage
from
them
when
they
have
faln
into
their
hands
.
Princes
may
be
deposed
and
murthered
for
any
crime
which
in
the
judgement
of
the
Pope
deserves
it
;
if
he
sell
a
Bishoprick
,
plunder
a
Church
,
fall
into
any
sort
of
wickedness
,
nay
,
if
he
live
not
according
as
his
state
and
condition
requires
.
't
is
another
odious
amplification
,
and
that
it
may
be
understood
for
what
causes
Princes
may
be
depos'd
by
the
sentences
against
In
general
,
that
the
causes
must
be
very
weighty
,
and
such
that
the
punishment
be
to
edification
not
destruction
.
to
edification-causes
not
only
the
Pope
,
but
every
Bishop
may
depose
by
this
doctrine
where
the
Prince
belongs
to
their
Diocess
or
Parish
.
If
the
Pope
be
the
supreme
Lord
of
the
whole
Christian
world
,
every
Bishop
is
Lord
of
the
Towns
subject
to
his
Bishoprick
;
for
what
the
Pope
is
in
the
universal
Church
,
every
Bishop
is
in
his
own
Diocess
.
by
this
argument
it
may
perhaps
be
concluded
,
that
a
Bishop
may
excommunicate
a
Prince
as
well
as
the
Pope
,
but
not
depose
him
;
because
though
he
be
in
his
Diocess
what
the
Pope
is
in
the
Church
,
as
much
as
amounts
to
being
truly
a
Pastor
,
and
truly
a
spiritual
Prince
,
not
a
Vicar
or
temporary
Delegate
;
yet
the
Pope
has
more
power
over
the
whole
,
then
a
Bishop
over
his
particular
.
For
which
reason
deposition
was
reserv'd
to
the
Pope
in
the
Council
of
Argument
is
good
,
and
this
supream
power
over
temporals
delivered
in
such
general
and
unlimited
terms
,
not
determining
how
great
,
or
what
kind
of
spiritual
good
that
must
be
,
in
order
to
which
Deposition
is
lawful
,
seems
a
just
occasion
of
perpetual
suspicion
and
jealousy
in
Princes
,
and
apt
to
disturb
the
publick
quiet
,
Christ
may
as
justly
be
reprehended
for
delivering
the
spiritual
power
in
general
terms
;
as
Commonwealths
for
submitting
in
general
to
obedience
of
Princes
whom
they
create
.
whatever
you
shall
bind
practice
of
the
Church
,
begun
with
the
Church
it self
,
and
continued
for
many
ages
:
no
mention
in
Scripture
or
ancient
Fathers
of
a
power
either
in
Pope
or
People
to
deprive
,
or
kill
even
persecuting
Princes
;
but
all
is
unanimous
and
constant
exhortation
to
patience
and
obedience
.
Now
if
there
be
any
warrant
in
the
Gospel
for
Christians
,
when
they
come
to
be
strong
enough
,
to
cast
off
such
Princes
as
are
enemies
to
the
Church
,
we
must
needs
have
heard
of
it
,
the
practice
of
the
Church
varies
according
to
different
times
.
That
for
the
first
years
she
practis'd
patience
because
she
could
do
no
other
,
there
being
no
Prince
dispos'd
to
protect
her
;
afterwards
it
became
the
practice
by
means
of
Catholick
Princes
to
resist
Infidel
or
Heretick
,
or
any
way
injurious
to
her
,
whether
Princes
or
People
.
For
there
is
mention
in
both
of
Saul
depos'd
by
Samuel
,
and
David
plac'd
in
his
room
:
Of
Agag
kill'd
:
Of
ten
Tribes
taken
by
Ahias
from
the
house
of
David
and
given
to
Jereboam
:
Of
Kings
set
up
and
pul'd
down
by
Elias
both
in
Israel
and
Syria
:
Of
Jehu
made
King
by
a
Prophet
,
and
Joram
both
depos'd
and
kill'd
:
Of
thalia
,
and
Ozias
,
one
kill'd
,
the
other
depos'd
for
Leprosy
:
Of
Hieremy
plac'd
over
Nations
and
Kingdoms
,
to
pluck
up
,
Of
the
Macabees
fighting
successfully
against
Antiochus
.
And
it
cannot
be
doubted
but
the
High
Priest
among
Christians
has
as
great
,
or
greater
power
then
the
High
Priest
among
the

To

then
punish

is
in
my
opinion
something

they
have
their

the

have
no

With
how

we
endeavour
,
for
taking
away
the
scandal

to

our
confession

to
whom
the
Holy
Scriptures
command
us
also
to
be
subject

what

is
given
to
the
Piety
of
his
Lords
,
over
all
men
,
over

as
well
as

That
those
places
are
general
,
and
mean
no
more
than
that
every
one
be
subject
to
his
own
Superiour
.
But
the
subjection
of
the
Clergy
to
Princes
cannot
be
proved
by
them

till
it
