he_o have_v be_v commissionated_a by_o my_o lord_n the_o bishop_n to_o defend_v the_o substantial_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n after_o so_o cruel_a a_o manner_n and_o to_o justify_v that_o her_o discession_n from_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o manifold_a horrible_a idolatry_n teach_v and_o practise_v in_o she_o which_o i_o be_o confident_a will_v never_o be_v aver_v by_o protestant_n 16._o for_o what_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v in_o this_o matter_n we_o may_v irrefragable_o collect_v from_o the_o censure_n synodical_o give_v by_o she_o in_o all_o those_o point_n of_o roman_a doctrine_n on_o which_o the_o doctor_n ground_n his_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n against_o catholic_n to_o wit_n the_o worship_n of_o god_n by_o image_n the_o formal_a invocation_n of_o saint_n and_o the_o adoration_n forsooth_o of_o bread_n in_o the_o eucharist_n 17._o now_o as_o touch_v the_o two_o first_o of_o these_o pretend_a ground_n i_o beseech_v you_o sir_n to_o consider_v how_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o her_o establish_a doctrine_n have_v express_v her_o sense_n in_o the_o 22._o 22._o article_n these_o be_v the_o word_n the_o romish_a doctrine_n concern_v purgatory_n pardon_n worship_v and_o adoration_n as_o well_o of_o image_n as_o of_o relic_n and_o also_o invocation_n of_o saint_n be_v a_o fond_a thing_n vain_o invent_v and_o ground_v on_o no_o warranty_n of_o scripture_n but_o rather_o repugnant_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n 18._o and_o this_o observation_n yourself_o have_v as_o become_v a_o unpassionate_a english_a prot●stant_n make_v where_o speak_v of_o purgatory_n you_o ingenuous_o profess_v 167._o that_o if_o you_o think_v your_o prayer_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o you_o can_v do_v can_v be_v helpful_a to_o the_o soul_n of_o your_o friend_n or_o your_o enemy_n you_o will_v pour_v they_o out_o with_o all_o your_o heart_n and_o shall_v not_o fear_v any_o reprehension_n from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o have_v declare_v no_o judgement_n in_o the_o point_n except_o it_o be_v comprehend_v in_o the_o article_n of_o purgatory_n and_o then_o the_o censure_n be_v no_o more_o than_o that_o it_o be_v a_o fond_a thing_n which_o in_o that_o case_n you_o will_v be_v content_a to_o undergo_v this_o you_o declare_v and_o upon_o the_o same_o ground_n since_o in_o the_o same_o article_n no_o worse_o a_o title_n and_o character_n be_v give_v to_o other_o romish_a doctrine_n as_o pardon_n worship_v of_o image_n and_o relic_n and_o also_o invocation_n of_o saint_n therefore_o certain_o you_o can_v approve_v the_o doctor_n attribute_v idolatry_n to_o such_o doctrine_n or_o practice_n 19_o in_o the_o next_o place_n be_v please_v to_o observe_v what_o the_o church_n of_o england_n declare_v touch_v that_o which_o dr._n stillingfl●et_n for_o a_o odious_a purpose_n term_v the_o adoration_n of_o bread_n in_o the_o eucharist_n 28._o in_o her_o 28_o article_n transubstantiation_n or_o the_o change_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n can_v be_v prove_v by_o holy_a writ_n but_o be_v repugnant_a to_o the_o plain_a word_n of_o scripture_n overthrow_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o sacrament_n and_o have_v give_v occasion_n to_o many_o superstition_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v give_v take_v and_o eat_v in_o the_o supper_n only_o after_o a_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a manner_n and_o the_o mean_n whereby_o the_o body_n of_o ●hrist_n be_v receive_v and_o eat_v in_o the_o

the_o censure_n far_o unlike_o the_o doctor_n which_o the_o church_n of_o england_n have_v give_v of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n touch_v the_o holy_a eucharist_n which_o censure_v you_o likewise_o as_o before_o will_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o excee_v she_o term_v they_o respective_o fond_a vain_o invent_v such_o as_o can_v be_v prove_v by_o scripture_n but_o be_v rather_o repugnant_a to_o the_o same_o she_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o style_v any_o of_o they_o superstitious_a but_o only_o give_v occasion_n to_o many_o superstition_n thus_o far_o and_o no_o far_o do_v she_o condemn_v they_o and_o i_o suppose_v so_o many_o grave_n learned_a and_o wise_a prelate_n as_o join_v in_o the_o compile_n these_o article_n and_o many_o more_o who_o afterward_o in_o several_a synod_n review_v and_o without_o any_o considerable_a change_n confirm_v they_o be_v as_o quick_a sight_v to_o discover_v fault_n and_o as_o able_a to_o proportionate_a a_o censure_n of_o they_o as_o dr._n stillingfleet_n who_o with_o all_o his_o skill_n be_v but_o a_o neophyte_n in_o the_o english_a church_n therefore_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o it_o be_v not_o by_o the_o church_n of_o england_n

warrant_v to_o charge_v the_o roman_n catholic_n church_n with_o idolatry_n by_o the_o example_n of_o several_a other_o grave_n and_o learned_a protestant_n member_n of_o the_o english_a church_n though_o i_o believe_v he_o will_v scarce_o grant_v that_o any_o before_o he_o have_v prosecute_v that_o charge_n with_o such_o a_o kill_a rhetoric_n or_o in_o a_o time_n so_o seasonable_a for_o
