please_v to_o answer_v to_o my_o doubt_n how_o can_v we_o live_v in_o peace_n and_o tranquillity_n in_o religion_n if_o our_o rule_n of_o faith_n be_v scripture_n as_o each_o one_o understand_v it_o i_o remember_v a_o discourse_n start_v in_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n not_o many_o year_n ago_o by_o his_o grace_n the_o duke_n of_o buckingham_n he_o desire_v to_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v

one_o understand_v it_o and_o protestancy_n nothing_o but_o scripture_n as_o interpret_v by_o the_o parliament_n and_o church_n of_o england_n whereupon_o he_o conclude_v we_o have_v be_v these_o

for_o religion_n and_o faith_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o sense_n of_o scripture_n which_o each_o person_n of_o sound_a judgement_n understand_v and_o as_o it_o be_v impossible_a we_o shall_v all_o jump_v and_o agree_v in_o one_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o text_n so_o it_o be_v impossible_a we_o shall_v ever_o be_v settle_v and_o agree_v in_o religion_n isaac_n the_o reason_n of_o

in_o our_o reform_a church_n but_o let_v we_o follow_v the_o rule_n of_o faith_n let_v each_o one_o believe_v as_o in_o his_o conscience_n he_o best_a understand_v scripture_n let_v we_o all_o
