obscure_o that_o posterity_n may_v rejoice_v at_o the_o clear_a knowledge_n of_o that_o which_o antiquity_n do_v reverence_n even_o before_o it_o come_v to_o be_v so_o know_v that_o in_o fine_a he_o

for_o more_o clear_a understanding_n thereof_o many_o time_n express_v the_o ancient_a sense_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o propriety_n of_o a_o new_a appellation_n that_o be_v by_o a_o new_a word_n then_o

and_o teach_v that_o faith_n much_o less_o do_v she_o deliver_v unto_o we_o any_o new_a faith_n for_o though_o she_o shall_v have_v new_a distinct_a revelation_n yet_o will_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o the_o faith_n be_v new_a so_o long_o as_o those_o it_o follow_v that_o he_o that_o deni_v the_o explication_n do_v deny_v the_o article_n and_o consequent_o frame_v unto_o himself_o a_o new_a

if_o it_o be_v good_a in_o sir_n humphrey_n be_v good_a in_o they_o and_o consequent_o he_o must_v disallow_v the_o decree_n of_o all_o counsel_n as_o novelty_n and_o approve_v all_o heresy_n for_o the_o ancient_a belief_n which_o be_v so_o great_a and_o manifest_a a_o absurdity_n he_o will_v not_o sure_a for_o shame_n admit_v and_o consequent_o must_v allow_v of_o vincentiu_n his_o authority_n

that_o sir_n humphrey_n may_v the_o better_a conceive_v i_o shall_v here_o in_o a_o word_n urge_v he_o with_o a_o example_n of_o his_o own_o church_n thus_o the_o church_n of_o england_n admit_v of_o diverse_a book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o canonical_a whereof_o there_o be_v doubt_n for_o three_o or_o four_o hundred_o year_n together_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n as_o the_o epistle_n

now_o i_o will_v know_v of_o he_o whether_o upon_o the_o admittance_n of_o they_o there_o be_v any_o change_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o church_n or_o whether_o even_o those_o book_n have_v receive_v any_o change_n in_o themselves_o he_o can_v say_v they_o do_v and_o there_o by_o he_o may_v answer_v himself_o and_o see_v plain_o that_o the_o change_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v be_v not_o in_o the_o

for_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o novelty_n and_o word_n not_o find_v in_o scripture_n as_o for_o example_n transubstantiation_n 3._o but_o to_o come_v near_o unto_o they_o they_o allow_v of_o the_o

the_o same_o urge_v sir_n humphrey_n with_o the_o 39_o article_n appoint_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n to_o be_v uniform_o teach_v by_o all_o minister_n and_o which_o they_o be_v to_o swear_v unto_o which_o article_n though_o they_o be_v indeed_o new_a coin_a as_o the_o foundation_n of_o a_o new_a church_n yet_o sir_n humphrey_n be_v his_o mother_n champion_n will_v not_o i_o suppose_v yield_v she_o or_o her_o doctrine_n to_o be_v new_a as_o yet_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o can_v deny_v but_o those_o article_n receive_v some_o kind_n of_o force_n whereby_o protestant_n be_v more_o bind_v to_o believe_v and_o teach_v they_o then_o before_o from_o whence_o i_o may_v evident_o infer_v that_o a_o new_a definition_n or_o declaration_n do_v not_o

of_o father_n against_o he_o or_o that_o he_o make_v any_o such_o answer_n to_o they_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o he_o say_v the_o contrary_a part_n allege_v for_o themselves_o the_o testimony_n of_o

this_o answer_n seem_v salmeron_n only_a whereas_o he_o profess_v to_o have_v it_o out_o of_o saint_n augustine_n and_o saint_n thomas_n of_o aquine_n cite_v two_o or_o three_o several_a place_n of_o

also_o say_v be_v the_o weak_a kind_n of_o proof_n so_o as_o by_o this_o salmeron_n meaning_n be_v plain_a not_o to_o reject_v authority_n but_o only_o to_o prefer_v reason_n before_o human_a authority_n as_o it_o be_v most_o plain_a that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v prefer_v beside_o salmeron_n give_v other_o answer_n as_o that_o he_o oppose_v also_o a_o contrary_a multitude_n of_o doctor_n he_o oppose_v the_o force_n of_o reason_n he_o oppose_v the_o consent_n in_o a_o manner_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n conclude_v therefore_o that_o though_o some_o of_o the_o contrary_a part_n
