that_o for_o our_o sake_n he_o endure_v most_o grievous_a torment_n immediate_o in_o his_o soul_n and_o most_o painful_a suffering_n in_o his_o body_n the_o endure_v of_o which_o grievous_a torment_n in_o his_o soul_n as_o calvin_n not_o without_o some_o touch_n of_o blasphemy_n do_v first_o devise_v so_o do_v he_o lie_v it_o down_o for_o the_o true_a sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o article_n of_o christ_n descend_v into_o hell_n in_o which_o expression_n as_o the_o article_n of_o ireland_n have_v take_v up_o the_o word_n of_o calvin_n so_o it_o may_v be_v rational_o conceive_v that_o

aforego_v he_o say_v thus_o yet_o he_o viz._n the_o lord_n primate_n neither_o follow_v the_o opinion_n of_o calvin_n himself_o nor_o of_o the_o generality_n of_o those_o of_o the_o calvinian_a

but_o as_o i_o shall_v not_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o enter_v into_o a_o dispute_n with_o the_o doctor_n or_o his_o follower_n in_o defence_n of_o these_o irish_a article_n and_o to_o prove_v they_o be_v not_o contradictory_n to_o those_o of_o england_n it_o not_o be_v my_o business_n yet_o i_o can_v forbear_v to_o observe_v that_o it_o be_v high_o improbable_a that_o all_o the_o bishop_n and_o clergy_n of_o ireland_n shall_v incorporate_v the_o nine_o article_n of_o lambeth_n contain_v all_o the_o calvinian_a rigour_n as_o the_o doctor_n call_v they_o in_o the_o point_n of_o predestination_n grace_n freewill_n etc._n etc._n if_o they_o have_v think_v they_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o have_v not_o be_v satisfy_v that_o it_o be_v the_o doctrine_n then_o hold_v and_o maintain_v in_o those_o point_n by_o the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o bishop_n and_o clergy_n of_o our_o church_n as_o also_o believe_v by_o the_o king_n himself_o who_o confirm_v they_o and_o certain_o will_v never_o else_o have_v send_v one_o bishop_n and_o three_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a divine_n within_o his_o dominion_n to_o the_o synod_n of_o dort_n to_o maintain_v against_o the_o remonstrant_n or_o arminian_n the_o very_a same_o opinion_n contain_v in_o these_o irish_a article_n but_o if_o all_o those_o must_v be_v count_v by_o the_o doctor_n for_o rigorous_a calvinist_n that_o maintain_v these_o article_n and_o consequent_o heterodox_n to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v how_o he_o can_v excuse_v the_o major_a part_n of_o our_o bishop_n in_o queen_n elizabeth_n and_o king_n james_n reign_n and_o a_o considerable_a part_n of_o they_o during_o the_o reign_n of_o the_o two_o last_o king_n of_o bless_a memory_n some_o of_o who_o be_v still_o live_v from_o this_o heterodoxy_n and_o if_o all_o man_n must_v be_v guilty_a of_o calvinism_n who_o hold_v these_o opinion_n concern_v predestination_n grace_n and_o freewill_n then_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o lutheran_n who_o differ_v very_o little_a from_o calvin_n in_o these_o point_n must_v be_v calvinist_n too_o nor_o be_v these_o point_n hold_v only_o by_o protestant_n but_o many_o also_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n hold_v the_o same_o as_o witness_v the_o jansenist_n and_o also_o the_o order_n of_o the_o dominican_n who_o come_v very_o near_o to_o calvin_n in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o predestination_n etc._n etc._n and_o be_v as_o much_o oppose_v by_o the_o jesuit_n as_o the_o arminian_n be_v by_o the_o antiremonstrants_a in_o

and_o because_o he_o be_v carress_v and_o feast_v by_o they_o wherever_o he_o come_v as_o the_o doctor_n will_v have_v it_o as_o if_o the_o lord_n primate_n have_v no_o other_o perfection_n but_o
