devil_n himself_o against_o christ_n 6._o use_v this_o reason_n it_o be_v write_v god_n have_v give_v his_o angel_n charge_v of_o thou_o therefore_o cast_v thyself_o down_o headlong_o last_o all_o the_o argument_n indeed_o which_o our_o adversary_n at_o this_o time_n allege_v against_o we_o out_o of_o scripture_n and_o all_o the_o error_n which_o they_o have_v invent_v do_v take_v their_o beginning_n and_o strength_n from_o their_o new_a illation_n and_o reason_n and_o not_o out_o of_o the_o bare_a and_o plain_a word_n of_o scripture_n as_o will_v manifest_o appear_v in_o every_o one_o of_o the_o controversy_n 10._o the_o reason_n also_o be_v manifest_a why_o these_o their_o collection_n and_o reason_n be_v uncertain_a and_o doubtful_a for_o in_o nothing_o can_v one_o more_o easy_o or_o more_o often_o err_v then_o in_o these_o illation_n the_o which_o may_v proceed_v of_o many_o cause_n either_o because_o the_o illation_n itself_o be_v bad_a and_o sophistical_a or_o because_o the_o place_n of_o scripture_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v gather_v be_v falsify_v by_o some_o false_a exposition_n thereof_o or_o because_o the_o proposition_n which_o be_v assume_v and_o adjoin_v to_o the_o word_n of_o scripture_n be_v false_a and_o ambiguous_a or_o because_o one_o or_o more_o word_n in_o that_o collection_n be_v use_v doubtful_o that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o one_o sense_n in_o the_o premise_n and_o in_o another_o in_o the_o conclusion_n or_o last_o because_o there_o happen_v some_o error_n to_o be_v in_o the_o collection_n which_o make_v it_o weak_a sophistical_a and_o erroneous_a 11._o beside_o that_o there_o be_v so_o many_o and_o so_o contrary_a illation_n of_o diverse_a man_n that_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v altogether_o necessary_a in_o

the_o whole_a church_n 12._o but_o when_o one_o believe_v such_o a_o illation_n with_o a_o divine_a or_o catholic_a faith_n he_o must_v needs_o know_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v that_o the_o express_a place_n of_o scripture_n from_o whence_o this_o conclusion_n be_v deduce_v must_v certain_o be_v well_o understand_v by_o he_o which_o dispute_v the_o other_o be_v that_o he_o who_o make_v such_o a_o deduction_n and_o collection_n can_v neither_o deceive_v other_o not_o be_v deceive_v himself_o but_o none_o can_v know_v either_o of_o these_o without_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o

which_o do_v ensue_v of_o the_o contrary_a doctrine_n for_o have_v once_o admit_v that_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v believe_v which_o be_v not_o express_v in_o scripture_n all_o old_a heresy_n be_v

once_o reject_v &_o despise_v the_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n all_o the_o point_n of_o faith_n from_o the_o apostle_n time_n till_o now_o explicate_v and_o prove_v by_o the_o ancient_a father_n against_o heretic_n all_o those_o thing_n also_o which_o be_v decree_v and_o determine_v by_o all_o the_o general_a counsel_n in_o time_n pass_v against_o the_o say_a heretic_n lose_v their_o chief_a strength_n and_o authority_n the_o which_o notwithstanding_o our_o adversary_n do_v acknowledge_v themselves_o to_o receive_v and_o believe_v 2._o neither_o do_v we_o know_v by_o a_o assure_a catholic_a faith_n whether_o there_o be_v ever_o any_o father_n or_o counsel_n but_o by_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n but_o neither_o do_v we_o know_v any_o other_o way_n but_o by_o faith_n whether_o since_o the_o apostle_n time_n till_o now_o there_o be_v any_o catholic_n or_o not_o because_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v do_v since_o the_o time_n and_o death_n of_o the_o apostle_n there_o be_v nothing_o extant_a in_o holy_a scripture_n see_v that_o all_o the_o book_n thereof_o be_v write_v before_o the_o death_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o such_o thing_n as_o have_v be_v do_v since_o till_o now_o can_v otherwise_o be_v know_v but_o by_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n 3._o neither_o be_v it_o sufficient_a to_o say_v that_o we_o know_v these_o thing_n by_o the_o

oftentimes_o deceive_v other_o and_o may_v be_v deceive_v itself_o and_o therefore_o these_o kind_n of_o history_n can_v produce_v a_o divine_a faith_n in_o we_o this_o experience_n itself_o do_v clear_o teach_v us._n for_o our_o adversary_n do_v sometime_o doubt_v whether_o s._n peter_n be_v ever_o at_o rome_n or_o no_o because_o forsooth_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v express_o in_o holy_a scripture_n whereas_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v most_o assure_o prove_v and_o testify_v in_o many_o book_n both_o of_o the_o ancient_a historiographer_n and_o holy_a father_n why_o may_v they_o not_o as_o lawful_o call_v other_o matter_n in_o question_n which_o be_v notwithstanding_o express_o set_v down_o in_o other_o ancient_a writer_n our_o adversary_n therefore_o do_v make_v all_o thing_n very_o doubtful_a and_o uncertain_a while_o they_o will_v only_o believe_v and_o admit_v the_o scripture_n but_o now_o let_v we_o answer_v their_o argument_n chap._n viii_o wherein_o the_o argument_n of_o our_o adversary_n take_v out_o of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v confute_v the_o first_o argument_n whereby_o our_o adversary_n oppugn_v tradition_n and_o which_o they_o use_v very_o often_o the_o which_o also_o as_o invincible_a they_o have_v add_v to_o the_o confession_n of_o their_o ultimo_fw-la faith_n they_o take_v out_o of_o those_o word_n of_o deuteronomy_n thou_o shall_v not_o add_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o word_n which_o i_o speak_v unto_o you_o nor_o shall_v you_o take_v any_o thing_n from_o it_o and_o again_o that_o which_o i_o command_v thou_o do_v that_o only_o neither_o add_v or_o diminish_v any_o thing_n from_o it_o by_o these_o place_n of_o scripture_n our_o adversary_n do_v infer_v that_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v as_o a_o point_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v not_o express_o set_v down_o in_o scripture_n 2._o but_o this_o argument_n be_v erroneous_a and_o the_o weakness_n thereof_o be_v very_o great_a for_o many_o cause_n first_o because_o in_o those_o word_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v of_o the_o scripture_n nor_o of_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n but_o only_o of_o the_o word_n preach_v and_o deliver_v viva_fw-la voce_fw-la thou_o shall_v not_o add_v say_v the_o scripture_n to_o the_o word_n that_o i_o speak_v unto_o you_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o i_o write_v unto_o you_o again_o do_v only_o say_v he_o that_o which_o i_o command_v thou_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o which_o i_o write_v unto_o thou_o 3._o moreover_o in_o these_o word_n the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v not_o only_o speak_v of_o matter_n of_o say_v to_o be_v believe_v but_o also_o of_o ceremony_n and_o custom_n to_o be_v do_v and_o observe_v but_o our_o adversary_n themselves_o confess_v that_o these_o custom_n may_v be_v add_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n yea_o they_o have_v ordain_v themselves_o very_o many_o the_o which_o they_o change_v even_o yet_o when_o they_o ●…rident_n please_v calvin_n also_o acknowledge_v that_o many_o unwritten_a custom_n be_v deliver_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o apostle_n 4._o that_o also_o according_a to_o the_o phrase_n of_o scripture_n be_v say_v to_o be_v add_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v contrary_a &_o opposite_a unit_fw-la for_o josue_n do_v not_o transgress_v this_o commandment_n of_o deuteronomy_n when_o he_o add_v his_o book_n to_o the_o book_n of_o moses_n nor_o do_v other_o transgress_v it_o who_o add_v the_o book_n of_o the_o judge_n ruth_n and_o of_o the_o king_n which_o be_v not_o write_v by_o moses_n &_o which_o be_v also_o to_o be_v believe_v as_o contain_v point_n of_o faith_n but_o in_o these_o book_n there_o be_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o that_o which_o moses_n write_v and_o the_o hebrew_n text_n agree_v very_o well_o to_o this_o answer_n for_o in_o both_o
