At p. liii. of their Report, the Commissioners have given (incidentally) a very fair definition of jurisdiction, viz., the determining whether impugned (doctrines or) practices conflict with authoritative formularies in such sense as to require correction and punishment. The authoritative formularies and the punishment are both alike fixed by jus. For instance, Heresy is defined by statute 1 Eliz. c. 1, sec. xx.; Clerical Subscription by 13 Eliz. c. 12; Ritual by 1 Eliz. c. 2, and so on.

We have next to examine, one by one, the steps of the argument set forth in the Report. The first assumption is that the Reformation, so far as it concerns this inquiry, was merely an anti-Papal movement, and sub...
