Title: An apologie for sundrie proceedings by iurisdiction ecclesiasticall, of late times by some challenged, and also diuersly by them impugned. : By which apologie (in their seuerall due places) all the reasons and allegations set downe as well in a treatise, as in certaine notes (that goe from hand to hand) both against proceedings ex officio, and against oaths ministred to parties in causes criminall; as also are examined and answered: Vpon that occasion lately reuiewed, and much enlarged aboue the first priuate proiect, and now published, being diuided into three partes: the first part whereof chieflie sheweth what matters be incident to ecclesiasticall comisance; and so allowed by statutes and common law: the second treateth (for the most part) of the two wayes of proceeding in causes criminal, viz, by way of accusation, & ex officio iudiciis: the third concerneth oaths in generall, but more specially the lawfulnesse of such as be ministred touching supposed offenses, either of themselues that sweare, or of their brethren: respectiuelie submitted to the graue iudgements of the reuerend iudges and other sages of the common lawe: of iudicious professors of the ciuill lawe: and of the right reuerend prelates and other grounded diuines in this realme. Whereunto (for the learneds sake, and for similitude of argument and iudgement) I have presumed to adioine that right excellent and sound determination (concerning oaths) which was made by M. Lancelot Androwes doctor in diuinitie, in the common diuinitie schoole of the Vniuersite of Cambridge in Iulie, an. 1591.
