both_o believe_v purgatory_n and_o receive_v the_o use_n of_o pardon_n general_o so_o long_o as_o there_o be_v no_o care_n of_o purgatory_n no_o man_n seek_v for_o pardon_n for_o of_o it_o depend_v all_o the_o estimation_n that_o we_o have_v of_o pardon_n if_o thou_o take_v away_o purgatory_n to_o what_o end_n shall_v we_o need_v pardon_n for_o if_o their_o be_v no_o purgatory_n we_o shall_v

by_o the_o scripture_n and_o so_o at_o the_o last_o believe_v general_o of_o the_o whole_a church_n we_o do_v easy_o understand_v the_o cause_n of_o perdon_n since_o therefore_o purgatory_n be_v so_o

therefore_o we_o learn_v here_o that_o the_o greek_a church_n never_o believe_v purgatory_n to_o this_o day_n 2_o second_o that_o the_o latin_a church_n and_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o believe_v the_o say_a purgatory_n for_o many_o hundred_o of_o year_n after_o s._n peter_n death_n who_o successor_n the_o pope_n boast_v himself_o to_o be_v 3_o thirdlie_o that_o this_o purgatory_n be_v not_o

purgatory_n be_v very_o effectual_o &_o plain_o contain_v therein_o secondlie_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o of_o that_o church_n speak_v the_o bishop_n repute_v the_o work_n of_o god_n

as_o the_o bishop_n say_v the_o scripture_n make_v purgatory_n know_v to_o the_o church_n but_o unperfectlie_o yet_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o if_o god_n make_v purgatory_n know_v by_o the_o scripture_n than_o purgatory_n be_v make_v know_v perfect_o by_o they_o or_o else_o god_n work_n that_o be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n must_v be_v unperfect_a but_o i_o will_v rather_o believe_v moses_n the_o holy_a prophet_n of_o god_n than_o my_o lord_n our_o fisher_n though_o the_o pope_n canonize_a martyr_n thirdlie_o this_o bishop_n for_o this_o his_o doctrine_n must_v either_o come_v again_o to_o retract_v his_o opinion_n or_o else_o will_v he_o will_v he_o condemn_v the_o pope_n and_o church_n of_o rome_n this_o i_o will_v prove_v by_o a_o most_o plain_a and_o evident_a demonstration_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n whereof_o i_o shall_v desire_v the_o gentle_a reader_n to_o observe_v three_o thing_n with_o i_o first_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n preach_v now_o and_o do_v in_o this_o bishop_n time_n that_o the_o book_n of_o maccabee_n be_v canonical_a scripture_n and_o pen_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n secondlie_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n neither_o believe_v nor_o know_v purgatory_n for_o many_o year_n together_o after_o the_o receit_n of_o holy_a scripture_n and_o these_o book_n of_o maccabee_n thirdlie_o that_o purgatory_n be_v
