bible_n among_o prohibit_v book_n for_o shall_v the_o people_n have_v liberty_n free_o to_o peruse_v it_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n will_v grow_v very_o thin_a and_o despicable_a i_o be_o sensible_a your_o priest_n find_v fault_n with_o our_o translation_n of_o the_o bible_n and_o cry_v out_o that_o there_o be_v great_a defect_n in_o it_o but_o when_o they_o talk_v so_o they_o have_v need_n talk_v to_o woman_n not_o to_o man_n of_o learning_n and_o that_o undestand_v greek_a and_o hebrew_n the_o language_n in_o which_o the_o word_n be_v original_o write_v the_o honesty_n of_o our_o translator_n appear_v sufficient_o from_o hence_o because_o if_o any_o sentence_n in_o the_o bible_n be_v capable_a of_o a_o double_a sense_n they_o express_v the_o one_o in_o the_o text_n and_o the_o

of_o it_o in_o the_o margin_n than_o which_o there_o can_v be_v nothing_o more_o honest_a and_o let_v any_o papist_n of_o you_o all_o show_v we_o wherein_o any_o thing_n in_o our_o bibles_n be_v ill_o

there_o be_v few_o translation_n go_v further_o from_o it_o than_o the_o vulgar_a latin_a or_o the_o rhemist_n testament_n as_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o prove_v if_o i_o intend_v more_o than_o a_o letter_n you_o be_v much_o take_v with_o their_o mortification_n and_o penance_n which_o you_o say_v we_o have_v not_o in_o our_o church_n but_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n madam_n you_o do_v not_o right_o understand_v our_o religion_n we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o condemn_v mortification_n and_o severity_n of_o life_n that_o we_o do_v commend_v it_o provide_v it_o be_v in_o order_n to_o subdue_v

more_o in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o use_v severity_n in_o this_o humble_a holy_a way_n than_o you_o be_v aware_a of_o we_o indeed_o do_v not_o ordinary_o inflict_v they_o on_o all_o

we_o leave_v to_o every_o man_n discretion_n urge_v that_o where_o sin_n require_v strong_a remedy_n there_o man_n ought_v to_o make_v use_n of_o they_o and_o if_o their_o corruption_n will_v not_o be_v go_v by_o reason_v and_o argument_n that_o there_o they_o must_v inflict_v mulct_n and_o penalty_n on_o themselves_o to_o drive_v the_o unclean_a spirit_n out_o though_o i_o must_v say_v still_o that_o religious_a severity_n and_o austerity_n be_v not_o certain_a sign_n of_o a_o true_a religion_n for_o heathen_n do_v use_v they_o as_o much_o as_o christian_n nay_o more_o than_o christian_n witness_v the_o brahmanes_n in_o the_o indies_n and_o the_o religious_a pagan_n disperse_v through_o all_o the_o eastern_a part_n and_o if_o you_o conclude_v that_o therefore_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n must_v be_v in_o the_o right_n because_o they_o inflict_v great_a pennance_n and_o severity_n and_o make_v daily_a use_n of_o they_o i_o be_o afraid_a you_o only_o forbear_v turn_v turk_n or_o heathen_a because_o you_o never_o see_v their_o far_a great_a severity_n in_o religion_n than_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n can_v boast_v of_o but_o still_o the_o protestant_a church_n have_v not_o the_o real_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v and_o be_v you_o sure_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v it_o i_o be_o

we_o understand_v it_o in_o the_o first_o sentence_n literal_o when_o the_o absurdity_n be_v far_o great_a nay_o that_o the_o word_n be_v shall_v not_o be_v capable_a of_o be_v understand_v literal_o
