it_o be_v for_o a_o state_n to_o have_v their_o subject_n confess_v their_o secret_a thought_n to_o spy_n b._n yes_o as_o much_o as_o eternal_a torture_n be_v more_o terrible_a than_o death_n so_o much_o they_o will_v fear_v the_o clergy_n more_o than_o the_o king_n a._n and_o though_o perhaps_o the_o roman_a clergy_n will_v not_o maintain_v that_o a_o priest_n have_v power_n to_o remit_v sin_n absolute_o but_o only_o with_o a_o condition_n of_o repentance_n yet_o the_o people_n be_v never_o so_o instruct_v by_o they_o but_o be_v leave_v to_o believe_v that_o whensoever_o they_o have_v

very_o difficult_a for_o a_o man_n to_o conceive_v and_o imagine_v clear_o but_o now_o it_o be_v make_v very_o clear_a that_o the_o bread_n be_v transubstantiate_v into_o christ_n body_n and_o so_o be_v become_v no_o more_o bread_n but_o flesh._n b._n it_o seem_v then_o that_o christ_n have_v many_o body_n and_o be_v in_o as_o many_o place_n at_o once_o as_o there_o be_v communicant_n i_o think_v the_o priest_n than_o be_v so_o wanton_a as_o to_o insist_v upon_o the_o dulness_n not_o only_o of_o common_a people_n but_o also_o of_o king_n and_o their_o councelor_n a._n i_o be_o now_o in_o a_o narration_n not_o in_o a_o disputation_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v have_v you_o at_o this_o time_n to_o consider_v nothing_o else_o but_o what_o effect_n this_o doctrine_n will_v work_v upon_o king_n and_o their_o subject_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o clergy_n who_o only_o be_v able_a of_o a_o piece_n of_o bread_n to_o make_v our_o saviour_n body_n and_o thereby_o at_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n to_o save_v their_o soul_n b._n for_o my_o part_n it_o will_v have_v a_o effect_n on_o i_o to_o make_v i_o think_v they_o god_n and_o to_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o they_o as_o of_o god_n himself_o if_o he_o be_v visible_o present_a a._n beside_o these_o and_o other_o article_n tend_v to_o the_o uphold_v of_o the_o pope_n authority_n they_o have_v many_o fine_a point_n in_o their_o

beside_o they_o private_o insinuate_v themselves_o with_o woman_n and_o man_n of_o weak_a judgement_n confirm_v their_o adherence_n to_o the_o pope_n and_o urge_v they_o in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o

i_o do_v not_o remember_v that_o i_o read_v of_o any_o kingdom_n or_o state_n in_o the_o world_n where_o liberty_n be_v give_v to_o any_o private_a man_n to_o call_v the_o people_n together_o and_o make_v oration_n frequent_o to_o they_o or_o at_o all_o without_o first_o make_v the_o state_n acquaint_v except_o only_o in_o christendom_n i_o believe_v the_o heathen_a k._n foresee_v that_o a_o few_o such_o orator_n will_v be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o great_a sedition_n moses_n do_v indeed_o command_v to_o read_v the_o scripture_n and_o expound_v they_o in_o the_o synagogue_n every_o

if_o the_o law_n of_o england_n also_o be_v often_o read_v and_o expound_v in_o the_o several_a congregation_n of_o englishman_n at_o time_n appoint_v that_o they_o may_v know_v what_o to_o do_v for_o they_o know_v already_o what_o to_o believe_v a._n i_o think_v that_o neither_o the_o preach_a of_o friar_n nor_o monk_n nor_o of_o parochial_a priest_n tend_v to_o teach_v man_n what_o but_o who_o to_o believe_v for_o the_o power_n of_o the_o mighty_a have_v no_o foundation_n but_o in_o the_o opinion_n and_o belief_n of_o the_o people_n and_o the_o end_n which_o the_o pope_n have_v in_o
