second_o be_v the_o want_n of_o christian_a charity_n by_o damn_v all_o the_o church_n before_o trent_n council_n two_o foul_a crime_n very_o unbecoming_a a_o general_n council_n who_o business_n be_v not_o to_o perform_v but_o reform_v sin_n now_o you_o must_v first_o know_v that_o the_o observance_n of_o the_o twelve_o trent_n article_n of_o faith_n be_v bind_v upon_o all_o by_o oath_n and_o in_o the_o very_a first_o article_n they_o declare_v to_o embrace_v the_o apostolical_a and_o ecclesiastical_a tradition_n and_o yet_o at_o the_o very_a same_o time_n swear_v to_o observe_v all_o that_o be_v decree_v by_o that_o council_n which_o order_n that_o the_o holy_a communion_n shall_v be_v administer_v to_o the_o laity_n but_o in_o one_o kind_n when_o for_o above_o a_o thousand_o year_n after_o christ_n it_o be_v give_v to_o they_o in_o both_o in_o all_o the_o christian_a church_n over_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o the_o roman_a church_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o it_o be_v our_o saviour_n command_n as_o well_o as_o all_o the_o church_n practice_n for_o so_o many_o year_n nay_o in_o the_o four_o article_n of_o the_o trent_n creed_n they_o use_v these_o very_a word_n that_o they_o receive_v and_o approve_v the_o rite_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n in_o the_o solemn_a administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o yet_o though_o the_o receive_v it_o in_o both_o kind_n be_v both_o apostolical_a tradition_n and_o ecclesiactical_a practice_n yet_o they_o positive_o forbid_v it_o to_o the_o laity_n the_o conclusion_n make_v itself_o my_o second_o observation_n be_v how_o uncharitable_a this_o council_n be_v and_o all_o its_o disciple_n in_o their_o condemn_v all_o other_o church_n for_o sure_o these_o trent_n creed-maker_n have_v not_o so_o much_o impudence_n though_o i_o know_v they_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n as_o to_o pretend_v to_o follow_v our_o bless_a saviour_n charitable_a doctrine_n who_o command_v we_o to_o pray_v for_o our_o enemy_n but_o this_o worthy_a council_n be_v so_o very_o far_o from_o pray_v for_o their_o enemy_n as_o they_o damn_v their_o very_a friend_n the_o old_a roman_a church_n with_o all_o the_o christian_a church_n disperse_v over_o the_o face_n of_o the_o whole_a earth_n for_o she_o no_o more_o than_o the_o rest_n do_v ever_o hear_v before_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n that_o its_o twelve_o new_a article_n be_v the_o old_a true_a catholic_n and_o apostolical_a faith_n without_o which_o no_o man_n can_v be_v save_v all_o i_o shall_v say_v to_o this_o be_v that_o as_o charity_n cover_v many_o fault_n so_o the_o want_n of_o it_o discover_v many_o vice_n which_o be_v apparent_a in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n more_o than_o all_o because_o she_o show_v less_o charity_n than_o any_o my_o next_o business_n be_v to_o show_v you_o that_o from_o the_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o time_n of_o the_o trent_n council_n among_o the_o many_o creed_n name_v by_o athanasius_n eusebius_n and_o other_o none_o of_o they_o ever_o make_v the_o least_o attempt_n of_o alter_v or_o much_o less_o of_o add_v any_o one_o new_a article_n of_o faith_n but_o only_o explain_v the_o old_a esteem_v the_o apostle_n creed_n to_o be_v full_o sufficient_a be_v as_o tertullian_n elegant_o style_v it_o a_o little_a body_n of_o great_a truth_n the_o rule_n of_o faith_n institute_v by_o christ_n and_o transmit_v from_o he_o to_o his_o apostle_n i_o can_v here_o for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o this_o truth_n produce_v you_o the_o testimony_n of_o all_o the_o eminent_a father_n of_o all_o age_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n but_o that_o will_v not_o only_o tire_v your_o patience_n but_o swell_v this_o letter_n above_o the_o moderate_a bound_n of_o one_o to_o prevent_v which_o i_o shall_v only_o quote_v you_o some_o few_o of_o the_o many_o which_o will_v be_v enough_o to_o justify_v that_o all_o acknowledge_v this_o great_a know_a truth_n that_o there_o be_v never_o add_v any_o new_a article_n of_o faith_n to_o the_o old_a apostolical_a creed_n before_o the_o trent_n council_n therefore_o i_o shall_v only_o here_o name_v you_o the_o first_o four_o general_n council_n those_o of_o nice_a constantinople_n ephesus_n and_o chalcedon_n and_o as_o to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o council_n when_o the_o nicene_n father_n meet_v to_o settle_v the_o controversy_n about_o the_o son_n of_o god_n they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o make_v any_o new_a creed_n or_o add_v any_o new_a article_n to_o the_o old_a that_o they_o expound_v only_o the_o meaning_n of_o one_o of_o the_o article_n the_o sense_n of_o which_o the_o arian_n have_v pervert_v and_o have_v therefore_o little_a design_n of_o change_v or_o add_v to_o the_o christian_a faith_n contain_v in_o the_o apostle_n creed_n when_o at_o their_o meeting_n they_o read_v no_o other_o creed_n but_o it_o and_o st._n austin_n before_o he_o begin_v his_o explication_n on_o the_o first_o book_n of_o genesis_n set_v down_o what_o the_o catholic_n faith_n be_v which_o he_o say_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o what_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o nicene_n creed_n but_o what_o need_v i_o allege_v more_o than_o the_o word_n of_o the_o great_a athanasius_n on_o this_o subject_a in_o the_o letter_n which_o he_o and_o some_o other_o bishop_n with_o he_o write_v to_o the_o emperor_n jovian_a where_o they_o tell_v he_o that_o the_o faith_n profess_v by_o the_o nicene_n father_n be_v the_o very_a same_o which_o be_v preach_v from_o the_o beginning_n and_o unto_o which_o all_o the_o church_n every_o where_o consent_v to_o whether_o in_o greece_n africa_n spain_n france_n italy_n etc._n etc._n with_o all_o the_o church_n of_o the_o east_n a_o few_o arian_n except_v and_o then_o set_v down_o the_o nicene_n creed_n they_o conclude_v in_o this_o faith_n it_o be_v necessary_a for_o all_o to_o remain_v as_o be_v divine_a and_o apostolical_a and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v change_v which_o be_v a_o most_o plain_a declaration_n by_o the_o council_n of_o trens_n leave_n that_o the_o faith_n contain_v in_o this_o creed_n be_v not_o at_o all_o defective_a and_o short_a as_o the_o trentonians_n do_v believe_v it_o be_v by_o their_o add_v more_o to_o it_o and_o

conclude_v that_o the_o now_o roman_a church_n can_v be_v the_o true_a church_n because_o it_o hold_v not_o the_o same_o faith_n now_o she_o do_v in_o the_o beginning_n have_v enlarge_v her_o creed_n by_o twelve_o new_a article_n of_o faith_n coin_v in_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n and_o never_o hear_v of_o in_o any_o christian_a church_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n before_o that_o late_a worthy_a

article_n of_o faith_n than_o those_o define_v by_o the_o nicene_n council_n and_o if_o any_o be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o dare_v the_o do_v of_o it_o if_o they_o were-lay-man_n they_o shall_v be_v
