Thus,1 though the King be not a competent judge of the Principles upon which the Church goes, whether right or no, he hath not skill to do that being such a one: yet he may have ability to judge between man and man, whether one to the other doth wrong yea or no, and that in matters of Religion. As thus; though he doth not think the Principles upon which they go to be right, yet he can judge whether according to those Principle they do right one to another, whether according to their Principles, they do not wrong one the other.
