which_o we_o say_v be_v a_o sign_n and_o concern_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n if_o thou_o hold_v that_o it_o be_v command_v by_o divine_a authority_n as_o the_o seven_o day_n once_o be_v when_o thou_o write_v again_o show_v when_o it_o be_v command_v and_o where_o the_o holy_a scripture_n testify_v of_o any_o such_o command_n ten_o whereas_o thou_o say_v that_o we_o say_v the_o lord_n

this_o i_o say_v thy_o compare_v of_o we_o with_o they_o be_v altogether_o unequal_a for_o we_o do_v not_o speak_v scornful_o of_o it_o but_o where_o we_o see_v either_o the_o papist_n or_o you_o in_o

thou_o have_v true_o instance_a nothing_o against_o we_o neither_o in_o doctrine_n nor_o practice_n but_o what_o we_o can_v prove_v sufficient_o by_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o thy_o work_n be_v

to_o be_v a_o papist_n than_o a_o protestant_n for_o why_o the_o protestant_n hold_v forth_o many_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n which_o be_v not_o provable_a by_o the_o scripture_n and_o i_o may_v

and_o you_o that_o you_o be_v popish_a jesuit_n and_o like_v unto_o they_o as_o instance_n a_o few_o thing_n among_o many_o you_o be_v make_v minister_n by_o natural_a learning_n and_o language_n through_o the_o attainment_n of_o such_o art_n and_o science_n at_o school_n and_o college_n which_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o and_o not_o by_o the_o immediate_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n

the_o whore_n of_o rome_n authority_n and_o you_o be_v in_o the_o very_a practice_n of_o that_o which_o they_o practise_v in_o this_o particular_a and_o you_o hold_v up_o and_o maintain_v that_o which_o the_o papist_n institute_v and_o first_o ordain_v and_o therefore_o be_v not_o you_o papist_n and_o upholder_n of_o popery_n let_v the_o witness_n in_o every_o man_n conscience_n judge_n for_o you_o be_v do_v and_o uphold_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n which_o the_o papist_n do_v which_o the_o apostle_n never_o do_v and_o by_o thy_o own_o rule_n you_o be_v therefore_o papist_n again_o you_o

never_o the_o apostle_n nor_o find_v in_o such_o practice_n but_o the_o jesuit_n and_o papist_n they_o be_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o such_o thing_n that_o first_o institute_v and_o ordain_v they_o in_o this_o nation_n and_o herein_o you_o follow_v their_o example_n and_o not_o the_o example_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o you_o be_v papist_n and_o follow_v their_o spirit_n and_o you_o practice_v what_o they_o practise_v even_o without_o any_o example_n at_o all_o in_o the_o scripture_n again_o you_o sprinkle_v infant_n and_o say_v it_o be_v

papist_n and_o yet_o uphold_v popery_n by_o these_o and_o many_o other_o thing_n that_o i_o may_v mention_v which_o you_o do_v and_o the_o papist_n do_v the_o same_o and_o without_o any_o proof_n or_o

and_o these_o practice_n be_v but_o a_o few_o of_o many_o i_o may_v mention_v and_o this_o be_v but_o a_o hint_n at_o thing_n which_o more_o large_o may_v be_v speak_v to_o and_o it_o be_v occasion_v upon_o thou_o by_o thy_o own_o proceed_n and_o i_o must_v tell_v thou_o that_o you_o be_v a_o company_n of_o shameless_a man_n to_o cry_v out_o against_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o be_v not_o

you_o minister_n yet_o practice_n in_o part_n many_o thing_n i_o may_v instance_n to_o illustrate_v you_o to_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o papist_n and_o even_o such_o as_o have_v spring_v out_o of_o
