of_o the_o anabaptiste_n for_o he_o know_v very_o well_o that_o among_o his_o minister_n there_o be_v many_o most_o wicked_a ungodly_a man_n wherefore_o it_o be_v very_o strange_a that_o his_o

the_o which_o you_o also_o do_v honour_n &_o reverence_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o faith_n thereof_o so_o also_o read_v you_o unto_o we_o out_o of_o book_n the_o which_o we_o also_o do_v

thing_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n so_o ancient_a in_o itself_o and_o so_o commend_v by_o all_o the_o ancient_a holy_a father_n yea_o and_o by_o the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n himself_o but_o that_o they_o false_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o she_o have_v lose_v and_o forsake_v the_o true_a doctrine_n of_o christ._n 8._o heerupon_o they_o say_v that_o rome_n be_v babylon_n and_o they_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o affirm_v the_o pope_n to_o be_v antichrist_n but_o if_o it_o be_v once_o prove_v manifest_o that_o the_o roman_a church_n teach_v nothing_o which_o be_v not_o very_o agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n all_o our_o adversary_n weapon_n against_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n will_v easy_o be_v blunt_v and_o overthrow_v and_o also_o they_o will_v be_v force_v to_o confess_v with_o calvin_n fine_a that_o the_o breach_n from_o this_o church_n be_v the_o denial_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n or_o that_o there_o can_v be_v imagine_v any_o fault_n more_o heinous_a but_o this_o god_n willing_a shall_v be_v more_o evident_o hereafter_o declare_v in_o every_o controversy_n chap._n ix_o of_o the_o adoration_n of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n &_o of_o the_o kiss_n of_o his_o foot_n among_o other_o crime_n wherewith_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v charge_v by_o our_o adversary_n one_o at_o which_o many_o take_v offence_n be_v the_o adoration_n of_o the_o pope_n and_o the_o kiss_n of_o his_o foot_n we_o will_v therefore_o in_o this_o chapter_n say_v somewhat_o in_o justification_n thereof_o for_o if_o it_o shall_v appear_v that_o nothing_o be_v do_v therein_o which_o be_v not_o

2._o howbeit_o we_o be_v first_o to_o forewarn_v the_o reader_n to_o the_o end_n he_o be_v not_o deceive_v by_o

to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o ch●ist_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o we_o will_v hereafter_o declare_v in_o the_o controversye_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n 5._o the_o eutherans_n that_o they_o may_v avoid_v this_o argument_n conver_v flee_v to_o the_o grecian_a church_n where_o they_o affirm_v the_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n remain_v but_o they_o be_v present_o reject_v and_o condemn_v by_o they_o as_o may_v be_v s●ene_v in_o the_o answer_n of_o jeremy_n the_o patriarch_n of_o constan●i●ople_n to_o the_o german_n write_v in_o greek_a in_o the_o year_n 1576._o neither_o do_v the_o

the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v only_o proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o not_o the_o son_n 6._o the_o which_o error_n even_o all_o our_o adversary_n which_o follow_v luther_n and_o calvin_n do_v

condemn_v by_o the_o whole_a church_n among_o who_o they_o seek_v for_o their_o church_n where_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v three_o thing_n against_o the_o great_a boldness_n of_o these_o man_n 7._o the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o true_a church_n have_v always_o continue_v as_o we_o have_v declare_v before_o out_o of_o the_o scripture_n lutheran_n but_o these_o man_n can_v never_o show_v a_o continual_a succession_n of_o heretic_n of_o what_o religion_n soever_o they_o be_v but_o only_o a_o interrupt_a continuance_n and_o that_o sometime_o for_o a_o great_a space_n together_o the_o which_o may_v easy_o be_v understand_v by_o genebrard_n coccius_n and_o all_o other_o ecclesiastical_a writer_n of_o what_o religion_n soever_o they_o be_v 8._o the_o second_o our_o adversary_n can_v prove_v all_o their_o point_n out_o of_o any_o one_o ancient_a heretic_n but_o they_o borrow_v one_o heresy_n condemn_v in_o time_n pass_v of_o one_o ●_o and_o another_o of_o some_o other_o as_o lindanus_n and_o coccius_n very_o well_o declare_v at_o large_a 9_o the_o three_o be_v that_o our_o adversary_n must_v needs_o contesse_v that_o those_o of_o who_o they_o have_v beg_v and_o borrow_v their_o doctrine_n 4._o do_v err_v foul_o in_o many_o point_n of_o faith_n and_o therefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a church_n among_o they_o yea_o even_o those_o ancient_a heretic_n have_v firm_o and_o constant_o believe_v many_o point_n with_o we_o against_o our_o adversary_n as_o doctor_n sanders_n gabriel_n prateolus_n and_o coccius_n do_v manifest_o declare_v 10._o the_o second_o reason_n the_o office_n of_o the_o true_a church_n be_v to_o bring_v forth_o child_n to_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o convert_v infidel_n and_o gentill_n from_o their_o idolatry_n to_o the_o catholic_a faith_n this_o the_o roman_a church_n have_v perform_v not_o only_o in_o the_o first_o five_o or_o six_o hundred_o year_n after_o christ_n as_o our_o adversary_n confess_v but_o in_o every_o age_n afterward_o she_o have_v do_v the_o same_o for_o since_o the_o fix_a hundred_o year_n all_o these_o nation_n be_v convert_v to_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o child_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n the_o german_n the_o francones_n 2._o bavarians_n wandalls_n bulgarian_n slavonian_n polonian_n dane_n moravians_n hungarian_n norwegian_n frisone_n norman_n sueutans_n wisigothe_n lituanians_n as_o not_o only_o catholic_a writer_n do_v testify_v which_o baronius_n allege_v but_o even_o our_o adversary_n also_o in_o their_o ecclesiastical_a history_n and_o in_o this_o our_o age_n how_o many_o have_v be_v convert_v from_o idolatry_n to_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o east_n and_o west_n indies_n by_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n only_o none_o be_v ignorant_a 11._o this_o office_n of_o the_o church_n in_o time_n past_o tertullian_n observe_v 42._o what●_v shall_v i_o speak_v of_o the_o preach_n and_o administration_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n see_v that_o this_o office_n and_o business_n belong_v not_o unto_o they_o he_o speak_v of_o heretic_n who_o do_v not_o convert_v infidel_n but_o overthrow_n and_o pervert_v christian_n 12._o and_o s._n augustine_n for_o the_o same_o cause_n say_v 1●_n that_o heretic_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o partridge_n by_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o a_o partridge_n nourish_v and_o

again_o to_o god_n by_o the_o ghospelll_n of_o christ._n 13._o the_o three_o reason_n the_o proper_a office_n of_o the_o church_n be_v to_o prevail_v against_o all_o persecutor_n the_o gate_n of_o hell_n say_v our_o lord_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o my_o church_n hereupon_o say_v s._n hilary_n principium_fw-la this_o be_v the_o property_n of_o the_o church_n that_o she_o than_o prevail_v

church_n have_v sustain_v hitherto_o many_o persecution_n contradiction_n assault_n and_o false_a slander_n but_o she_o have_v ever_o get_v the_o victory_n both_o of_o the_o gentill_n heretic_n &_o bad_a christian_n persecute_v the_o church_n of_o god_n as_o all_o ecclesiastical_a history_n &_o experience_n also_o do_v testify_v for_o even_o to_o this_o day_n for_o the_o space_n of_o almost_o a_o thousand_o and_o six_o hundred_o year_n she_o be_v still_o constant_a immovable_a and_o invincible_a in_o despite_n of_o all_o her_o adversary_n 14._o our_o adversary_n indeed_o in_o diverse_a book_n publish_v against_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n heap_v up_o together_o many_o in_o diverse_a age_n who_o have_v oppose_v themselves_o against_o he_o but_o they_o can_v find_v none_o who_o have_v at_o any_o time_n quite_o overthrow_v the_o roman_a church_n we_o know_v very_o well_o that_o wicked_a man_n be_v never_o want_v who_o vehement_o oppose_v themselves_o against_o the_o devoute_a

not_o say_v that_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o oppugn_v his_o church_n but_o that_o they_o shall_v never_o prevail_v against_o she_o 15._o final_o look_v how_o many_o oppugner_n and_o
