another_o way_n here_o leave_v to_o the_o author_n his_o own_o term_n of_o rail_v wherein_o i_o wonder_v he_o shall_v delight_v but_o that_o i_o see_v elsewhere_o he_o take_v pleasure_n in_o the_o

the_o not_o explicit_a know_v and_o believe_v whereof_o in_o your_o own_o doctrine_n do_v not_o exclude_v salvation_n he_o go_v on_o and_o object_n a_o second_o good_a use_n that_o we_o make_v of_o

we_o have_v say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n that_o the_o church_n must_v have_v be_v continual_o visible_a i_o tell_v he_o that_o if_o this_o be_v a_o absurd_a doctrine_n as_o he_o term_v it_o they_o be_v lead_v to_o this_o absurdity_n with_o a_o great_a show_n of_o reason_n for_o not_o to_o run_v out_o at_o large_a into_o the_o common_a place_n of_o visibility_n when_o 6._o

because_o they_o well_o know_v that_o no_o other_o church_n but_o we_o can_v indeed_o be_v show_v to_o have_v be_v visible_a through_o all_o age_n since_o christ_n our_o lord_n but_o i_o must_v here_o

ever_o prove_v that_o other_o church_n have_v not_o be_v as_o true_o and_o continual_o visible_a as_o rome_n for_o it_o will_v still_o trouble_v the_o author_n to_o show_v that_o the_o church_n of_o greece_n and_o africa_n have_v be_v less_o true_o visible_a than_o rome_n since_o the_o primitive_a time_n of_o their_o first_o conversion_n and_o now_o this_o author_n be_v past_o our_o use_n of_o
