before_o we_o begin_v to_o decline_v from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o to_o spurn_v against_o the_o pope_n authority_n all_o be_v well_o enough_o all_o be_v quiet_a at_o home_n all_o be_v

agreement_n and_o consent_v of_o all_o man_n together_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o faith_n but_o after_o that_o we_o have_v once_o revolt_v from_o that_o catholic_a church_n and_o have_v shake_v off_o from_o we_o the_o obedience_n which_o we_o owe_v to_o our_o holy_a father_n the_o pope_n than_o begin_v all_o this_o discord_n and_o dissension_n than_o begin_v all_o these_o stir_n and_o trouble_n than_o begin_v all_o this_o hurly_o burly_z to_o be_v in_o the_o church_n and_o not_o only_o in_o the_o church_n but_o in_o all_o place_n of_o the_o world_n where_o the_o church_n be_v plant_v then_o begin_v man_n to_o fall_v together_o by_o the_o ear_n than_o nation_n and_o nation_n begin_v to_o be_v at_o war_n one_o with_o another_o yea_o and_o nation_n within_o themselves_o begin_v to_o have_v civil_a war_n and_o bloodshed_n to_o the_o great_a disturbance_n of_o all_o good_a policy_n and_o government_n as_o at_o this_o day_n we_o see_v be_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o france_n in_o flanders_n in_o scotland_n &_o elsewhere_o to_o the_o great_a wonder_n of_o the_o world_n and_o all_o this_o by_o our_o fall_n from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n &_o therefore_o we_o that_o be_v fall_v from_o that_o church_n &_o have_v swerve_v from_o it_o be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o all_o the_o stir_n and_o trouble_v now_o in_o the_o church_n and_o so_o consequent_o of_o all_o the_o stir_n and_o trouble_n that_o be_v in_o the_o whale_n world_n this_o be_v their_o reason_n that_o they_o bring_v against_o we_o a_o great_a reason_n doubtless_o mark_v it_o well_o this_o it_o be_v in_o few_o word_n we_o be_v those_o that_o have_v swerve_v from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n ergo_fw-la we_o be_v those_o that_o trouble_v the_o church_n and_o the_o whole_a world_n do_v you_o not_o mark_v their_o argument_n it_o be_v a_o much_o like_a reason_n as_o if_o the_o old_a scribe_n and_o pharisee_n of_o the_o jewish_a synagogue_n shall_v come_v again_o and_o say_v unto_o christ_n that_o before_o he_o and_o his_o apostle_n begin_v to_o speak_v against_o they_o and_o their_o authority_n and_o to_o preach_v against_o their_o doctrine_n and_o tradition_n and_o so_o to_o carry_v the_o people_n another_o way_n all_o thing_n be_v very_o well_o all_o be_v quiet_a with_o they_o there_o be_v no_o stir_n no_o trouble_n no_o tumult_n amongst_o the_o people_n there_o be_v no_o discord_n nor_o dissension_n in_o the_o church_n nor_o in_o church_n matter_n but_o all_o man_n agree_v very_o well_o together_o in_o doctrine_n in_o ceremony_n in_o tradition_n in_o religion_n and_o so_o forth_o all_o be_v hush_a &_o peace_n yea_o forsooth_o the_o devil_n may_v sleep_v quiet_o there_o be_v none_o to_o wake_v he_o none_o to_o trouble_v his_o kingdom_n but_o after_o that_o he_o and_o his_o apostle_n have_v once_o shake_v their_o holy_a mother_n the_o synagogue_n and_o have_v dispute_v against_o their_o abuse_n and_o deface_v their_o doctrine_n and_o discover_v their_o hypocrisy_n and_o so_o by_o that_o mean_n have_v blemish_v their_o authority_n and_o estimation_n why_o now_o the_o world_n be_v change_v the_o people_n be_v not_o as_o they_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v they_o show_v not_o their_o accustom_a obedience_n and_o reverence_n to_o their_o old_a holy_a father_n and_o guide_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n but_o begin_v to_o fall_v from_o they_o yea_o and_o to_o murmur_v and_o grudge_v against_o they_o as_o seducer_n and_o deceiver_n of_o the_o people_n and_o all_o this_o come_v by_o he_o and_o his_o apostle_n speak_v against_o they_o therefore_o he_o and_o his_o apostle_n be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o all_o stir_n and_o trouble_n in_o jewry_n a_o much_o like_o reason_n also_o as_o if_o wicked_a acab_n shall_v come_v again_o and_o say_v to_o the_o good_a prophet_n helias_n that_o before_o he_o begin_v to_o open_v his_o mouth_n against_o jezabel_n and_o her_o
