do_v either_o in_o this_o life_n or_o else_o in_o purgatory_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o no_o saint_n do_v or_o can_v suffer_v so_o much_o as_o be_v sufficient_a for_o his_o sin_n and_o i_o prove_v it_o evident_o because_o the_o best_a learned_a papist_n grant_v free_o and_o true_o that_o every_o mortal_a sin_n have_v in_o it_o infinite_a deformity_n as_o which_o be_v a_o aversion_n from_o god_n of_o infinite_a majesty_n and_o consequent_o that_o god_n require_v infinite_a satisfaction_n for_o the_o same_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o pure_a man_n be_v uncapable_a of_o every_o infinite_a action_n for_o otherwise_o he_o shall_v be_v a_o other_o god_n and_o consequent_o man_n action_n of_o which_o no_o one_o among_o all_o can_v be_v infinite_a can_v not_o yield_v condign_a compensation_n for_o one_o only_o mortal_a sin_n and_o yet_o be_v every_o sin_n mortal_a indeed_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o my_o motive_n even_o by_o popish_a doctrine_n peruse_v the_o eight_o article_n of_o dissension_n in_o the_o second_o book_n of_o the_o say_a motive_n and_o thou_o shall_v see_v evident_o that_o not_o only_a gerson_n durand_n baius_n roffensis_n and_o almayn_n who_o all_o be_v renown_v papist_n but_o even_o the_o common_a school_n of_o late_a day_n do_v hold_v the_o same_o opinion_n i_o say_v second_o that_o god_n have_v already_o reward_v every_o saint_n in_o heaven_n as_o he_o will_v also_o in_o time_n reward_v every_o saint_n now_o on_o earth_n fâ—r_v above_o their_o desert_n which_o i_o prove_v
the_o reward_n of_o eternal_a life_n i_o say_v four_o that_o to_o invocate_v saint_n depart_v believe_v that_o they_o can_v &_o do_v hear_v our_o prayer_n be_v to_o make_v they_o god_n and_o even_o so_o shall_v we_o make_v the_o live_n god_n if_o we_o do_v in_o that_o manner_n call_v on_o they_o in_o their_o absence_n i_o may_v therefore_o well_o conclude_v that_o though_o the_o one_o kind_n of_o pray_v be_v godly_a and_o imitable_a yet_o be_v the_o other_o damnable_a and_o flat_a idololatricall_a for_o god_n be_v zealous_a 42.8_o and_o will_v not_o give_v his_o glory_n to_o another_o the_o second_o objection_n the_o soul_n of_o the_o rich_a man_n in_o hell_n know_v where_o abraham_n be_v as_o also_o the_o state_n of_o lazarus_n 16.25_o and_o of_o his_o brethren_n then_o live_v therefore_o much_o more_o do_v the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n know_v our_o state_n on_o earth_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o parable_n and_o allegory_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o establish_v any_o new_a kind_n of_o doctrine_n for_o by_o this_o parable_n as_o irenaeus_n record_v christ_n mean_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o declare_v the_o cogitation_n torment_n &_o state_n of_o the_o wicked_a after_o this_o life_n orthodox_n justinus_n be_v of_o the_o same_o opinion_n &_o hereupon_o flat_o deni_v purgatory_n i_o say_v second_o that_o if_o this_o be_v grant_v to_o be_v a_o true_a history_n &_o no_o parable_n yet_o will_v it_o not_o follow_v thereupon_o that_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n know_v our_o thought_n and_o prayer_n here_o on_o earth_n for_o as_o s._n austen_n grave_o write_v though_o the_o dead_a know_v not_o what_o be_v do_v here_o on_o earth_n while_o we_o do_v it_o yet_o may_v they_o afterward_o know_v what_o be_v do_v either_o by_o the_o dead_a that_o go_v from_o hence_o 4._o or_o by_o the_o angel_n that_o be_v present_a when_o the_o thing_n be_v do_v and_o this_o knowledge_n have_v abraham_n by_o the_o relation_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o no_o otherwise_o as_o witness_v the_o same_o s._n austen_n in_o the_o same_o book_n the_o three_o objection_n s._n austen_n ambrose_n gregory_n cyprian_n and_o the_o ancient_a father_n general_o use_v to_o invocate_v and_o to_o pray_v unto_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v neither_o any_o new_a thing_n nor_o any_o unlawful_a act_n the_o answer_n better_a answer_n can_v be_v give_v to_o the_o father_n then_o that_o which_o be_v true_o gather_v out_o of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o same_o father_n i_o therefore_o say_v first_o with_o cyprian_a that_o we_o must_v hear_v &_o attend_v what_o

to_o be_v do_v for_o we_o must_v not_o follow_v the_o custom_n of_o man_n but_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n so_o say_v holy_a cyprian_a to_o which_o i_o may_v add_v with_o s._n jerome_n 3._o that_o y_o e_o multitude_n of_o they_o that_o err_v bring_v no_o patronage_n to_o the_o error_n itself_o &_o with_o augustine_n that_o neither_o what_o i_o say_v nor_o what_o thou_o say_v initio_fw-la but_o

that_o though_o the_o papist_n glory_v great_o of_o y_z e_z father_n in_o this_o point_n yet_o when_o their_o say_n be_v due_o consider_v they_o will_v make_v little_a or_o nothing_o for_o their_o
