religion_n and_o so_o much_o of_o late_a romish_a faith_n and_o doctrine_n as_o be_v consonant_n and_o agreeable_a to_o the_o same_o but_o for_o all_o this_o the_o papist_n seem_v to_o have_v strong_a

5._o of_o popish_a unwritten_a tradition_n theophilus_n i_o will_v still_o by_o your_o favour_n argue_v as_o a_o papist_n on_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o papist_n that_o so_o i_o may_v more_o clear_o have_v a_o sound_a insight_n into_o the_o truth_n you_o protestant_n for_o so_o we_o use_v to_o term_v you_o bear_v we_o in_o hand_n that_o the_o scripture_n or_o write_v word_n of_o god_n contain_v

for_o his_o pain_n remig._n i_o answer_v first_o that_o i_o know_v your_o cardinal_n right_o well_o and_o willing_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v learn_v 5._o as_o also_o religious_a and_o ●ealous_a after_o the_o manner_n of_o his_o sect_n but_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o paul_n be_v before_o his_o conversion_n second_o that_o your_o cardinal_n do_v often_o acknowledge_v the_o truth_n unaware_o

to_o answer_v my_o book_n the_o downfall_n of_o popery_n out_o of_o who_o confession_n and_o free_a grant_n such_o be_v the_o force_n of_o truth_n i_o observe_v these_o memorable_a and_o golden_a

from_o a_o papist_n mouth_n that_o every_o point_n necessary_a for_o salvation_n be_v plain_o and_o clear_o set_v down_o in_o holy_a writ_n three_o that_o god_n himself_o appoint_v all_o necessary_a

teach_v saint_n austen_n when_o he_o say_v that_o those_o thing_n be_v write_v which_o seem_v sufficient_a for_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o faithful_a where_o i_o note_v say_v s._n r._n that_o he_o
