Ridley. Seeing you appoint me a time to answer to morrow,1 and yet will take mine answers out of hand, first I require the Notaries, to take and write my protestation, that in no point I acknowledge your authority, or admit you to be my Judges, in that point you are authorised from the Pope. Therefore what soever I shall say or do, I protest, I neither say it, neither do it willingly, thereby to admit the authority of the Pope: & if your Lordship will give me leave, I will show the causes, which moveth me thereunto.
