HE believes, that the Pope has Au∣thority to dispence with his Alle∣giance to his Prince; and that he needs no longer be a Loyal Subject, and main∣tain the Rights, Priviledges and Autho∣rity of his King, than the Pope will give him leave. And that if this Mighty Father think sit to thunder out an Ex∣communication against him, then he shall be deem'd the best Subject, and Most Christian that can first shed his Prince's Blood, and make him a Sacri∣fice to Rome: and he's but ill reward∣ed for his pains, who, after so Glorious an Atchievement, has not his Name plac'd in the Kalendar, and he Cano∣niz'd for a Saint.
