1Adversaries of this Commandment, are the Papists, who weaken the authority of the Magistrate,2 in exempting their Clergy from all Civill power of Magistracy in causes both judicial (that is, matters controversial) and criminal, that is, matters of trespass, although the Apostle saith, Let every soul be subject. Secondly, that Church hath set up a power to bring into order and subjection all the Kings upon earth, namely the power of the Pope, who challengeth to himself to overrule, yea and to depose at his pleasure Kings and Queens, who in their dominions are above all and only under God. Thirdly, that religion lesseneth the power of parents: for in the Council of Trent they establish, first, Marriages, and Contracts made by children without consent of parents. Secondly, Vows also made by children under age and without consent of parents, are held lawful, and not to be broken.
