A07880	The Popes funerall Containing a plaine, succinct, and pithy reply, to a pretensed answere of a shamelesse and foolish libell, intituled, The forerunner of Bels downfall. VVhich is nothing else indeede, (as the indifferent reader shall preceiue by the due peruse thereof,) but an euident manifestation of his owne folly; with the vtter confusion of poperie, and all popish vassals throughout the Christian world.	Bell, Thomas, fl. 1593-1610.	1605 (1605)	STC 1825; ESTC S101478	72,528	132

chapter_n 12._o i_o have_v handle_v two_o &_o thirty_o article_n of_o dissension_n among_o the_o papist_n all_o which_o i_o have_v prove_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o very_a learned_a and_o famous_a popish_a writer_n among_o the_o which_o 32._o article_n this_o rove_a &_o range_v jesuitical_a libeler_n can_v find_v but_o this_o one_o for_o his_o purpose_n in_o this_o very_a same_o book_n be_v the_o first_o that_o ever_o i_o publish_v in_o print_n against_o they_o i_o have_v impugn_a &_o batter_v to_o the_o ground_n ten_o special_a article_n of_o popish_a faith_n &_o religion_n first_o i_o have_v show_v the_o insufficiency_n blasphemy_n and_o absurdity_n of_o popish_a pardon_n second_o that_o the_o pope_n both_o may_v err_v and_o have_v err_v the_o facto_fw-la not_o only_o as_o a_o private_a person_n in_o private_a opinion_n but_o even_o as_o pope_n and_o public_a person_n and_o that_o in_o his_o judicial_a and_o definitive_a sentence_n three_o that_o general_a counsel_n in_o these_o latter_a day_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o mere_a mockery_n and_o sophistical_a subtlety_n to_o deceive_v god_n people_n withal_o four_o that_o the_o pope_n dispensation_n be_v wicked_a licentious_a and_o intolerable_a five_o that_o king_n be_v above_o pope_n that_o their_o power_n royal_a be_v independent_a &_o that_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o none_o but_o to_o god_n alone_o six_o that_o popish_a dissension_n be_v of_o matter_n most_o important_a and_o incredible_a to_o such_o as_o be_v not_o well_o acquaint_v with_o their_o book_n i_o have_v set_v down_o 32._o in_o number_n of_o their_o dissension_n seven_o that_o the_o write_n of_o the_o ancient_a father_n be_v to_o be_v receive_v with_o great_a reverence_n yet_o so_o as_o we_o acknowledge_v they_o to_o be_v man_n to_o have_v their_o error_n and_o to_o bind_v we_o to_o their_o authority_n no_o further_o than_o they_o accord_v and_o agree_v to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n eyght_o that_o all_o thing_n necessary_a for_o our_o salvation_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o that_o popish_a unwritten_a tradition_n be_v so_o uncertain_a as_o the_o best_a learned_a papist_n can_v agree_v therein_o nine_o that_o after_o this_o life_n there_o be_v neither_o merit_n nor_o demerit_n nor_o satisfaction_n to_o be_v make_v and_o that_o the_o book_n of_o the_o maccabee_n can_v establish_v popish_a purgatory_n ten_o that_o the_o specifical_a enumeration_n and_o confession_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n be_v not_o only_o not_o command_v by_o the_o scripture_n but_o flat_o repugnant_a to_o the_o same_o &_o impossible_a to_o be_v accomplish_v by_o the_o power_n of_o man_n all_o which_o point_n and_o article_n i_o have_v prove_v not_o only_o by_o scripture_n authority_n and_o reason_n but_o even_o by_o the_o express_a testimony_n of_o the_o pope_n own_o dear_a doctor_n and_o best_a learned_a papist_n a_o demonstration_n so_o forceable_a against_o the_o papist_n as_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o this_o book_n be_v extant_a in_o print_n about_o 12._o year_n ago_o the_o jesuit_n have_v be_v long_o fiddle_v &_o buzz_v about_o some_o answer_n to_o this_o &_o my_o other_o book_n yea_o they_o have_v many_o year_n ago_o promise_v the_o world_n that_o they_o will_v speedy_o frame_v a_o answer_n to_o the_o same_o but_o while_o the_o grass_n grow_v as_o the_o common_a say_n be_v the_o horse_n die_v myself_o be_o now_o well_o strike_v in_o year_n &_o by_o the_o course_n of_o nature_n short_o to_o go_v the_o way_n of_o all_o flesh_n they_o be_v so_o nettle_v so_o prick_v and_o gore_v and_o their_o religion_n so_o batter_v with_o their_o own_o best_a learned_a doctor_n &_o most_o skilful_a proctor_n that_o glad_o they_o will_v satisfy_v their_o jesuited_a popeling_n &_o wipe_v away_o that_o discredit_n which_o hang_v at_o their_o beard_n for_o which_o end_n they_o use_v many_o cozen_a trick_n juggling_n &_o legierdemain_v so_o to_o stay_v the_o out-cry_n of_o the_o people_n until_o i_o be_v dead_a and_o then_o by_o your_o favour_n they_o will_v come_v upon_o i_o with_o good_a speed_n for_o canis_fw-la mortuus_fw-la non_fw-la mordet_fw-la full_o but_o before_o that_o

because_o to_o snatch_v here_o a_o piece_n and_o there_o a_o piece_n be_v no_o answer_n at_o all_o but_o a_o mere_a toy_n for_o young_a child_n to_o play_v withal_o second_o this_o silly_a dissension_n which_o our_o libeler_n robert_n parson_n jesuit_n that_o honest_a man_n if_o you_o will_v have_v pick_v out_o of_o all_o the_o two_o and_o thirty_o in_o number_n as_o that_o with_o which_o he_o think_v himself_o best_a able_a to_o grapple_v do_v utter_o confound_v he_o and_o strike_v he_o dead_a i_o prove_v it_o first_o because_o he_o grant_v as_o much_o as_o i_o desire_v or_o

that_o i_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o prove_v o_o sweet_a jesus_n who_o see_v not_o these_o jesuit_n so_o besot_v and_o blind_v with_o malice_n that_o they_o can_v perceyve_v their_o own_o dotage_n they_o impugn_v that_o in_o one_o sentence_n which_o they_o grant_v in_o another_o who_o will_v not_o persuade_v himself_o it_o that_o my_o book_n of_o motive_n be_v the_o first_o i_o write_v be_v most_o

of_o his_o best_a advantage_n be_v by_o his_o own_o confession_n as_o true_a as_o the_o truth_n itself_o but_o say_v he_o it_o be_v no_o dissension_n in_o matter_n of_o faith_n fie_o fie_o fie_o popery_n can_v stand_v unless_o it_o be_v support_v and_o underprop_a with_o slanderous_a lie_n he_o will_v have_v his_o reader_n to_o believe_v that_o i_o affirm_v the_o dissension_n to_o be_v a_o

lest_o the_o reader_n shall_v be_v dismay_v when_o he_o shall_v perceyve_v the_o pope_n own_o doctor_n yea_o and_o pope_n adrian_n himself_o who_o name_n he_o likewise_o suppress_v as_o he_o do_v the_o name_n of_o pope_n gregory_n to_o withstand_v the_o pope_n and_o to_o tell_v he_o flat_o that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n and_o therefore_o both_o may_v err_v and_o err_v indeed_o egregious_o loe_o pope_n adrian_n with_o sundry_a learned_a papist_n teach_v this_o doctrine_n that_o none_o but_o bishop_n can_v be_v the_o true_a minister_n of_o confirmation_n pope_n gregory_n with_o other_o

to_o be_v no_o sacrament_n at_o all_o if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o dissension_n of_o importance_n and_o touch_v popish_a faith_n let_v the_o indifferent_a reader_n judge_v for_o the_o silly_a vulgar_a
