therefore_o the_o people_n must_v not_o read_v it_o and_o that_o it_o be_v best_o for_o the_o people_n to_o be_v ignorant_a still_o for_o ignorance_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o devotion_n so_o that_o we_o see_v the_o ancient_a church_n of_o rome_n commend_v unto_o we_o god_n word_n as_o most_o necessary_a for_o christian_n the_o now_o church_n of_o rome_n condemn_v the_o same_o not_o as_o

before_o by_o the_o prophet_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 2._o but_o the_o now_o romish_a faith_n can_v abide_v this_o doctrine_n and_o therefore_o our_o new_a m._n of_o rome_n have_v decree_v

there_o also_o for_o some_o there_o be_v that_o be_v altogether_o enemy_n to_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n as_o be_v the_o obstinate_a jew_n who_o can_v not_o abide_v to_o hear_v of_o this_o
