that_o we_o will_v ask_v he_o a_o reason_n of_o his_o religion_n not_o in_o manner_n of_o revenge_n but_o to_o let_v the_o truth_n be_v know_v and_o to_o show_v that_o we_o be_v better_o ground_v in_o

reason_n of_o his_o belief_n charity_n towards_o all_o man_n and_o a_o desire_n to_o lend_v our_o help_a hand_n to_o he_o that_o be_v fall_v and_o the_o zeal_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o bear_v to_o the_o defence_n of_o god_n cause_n sufficient_o bind_v we_o to_o speak_v and_o to_o propound_v the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n to_o those_o that_o require_v it_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o say_v it_o be_v already_o long_a time_n since_o i_o have_v be_v in_o possession_n of_o this_o doctrine_n for_o pagan_n jew_n and_o turk_n may_v say_v as_o much_o who_o religion_n be_v ancient_a than_o

the_o truth_n a_o ancient_a opinion_n once_o be_v new_a and_o if_o time_n may_v authorise_v a_o doctrine_n tell_v i_o how_o many_o year_n at_o the_o least_o i_o must_v have_v to_o give_v authority_n thereunto_o then_o we_o must_v proceed_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o to_o the_o institution_n contain_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o without_o speak_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n yet_o it_o
