that_o in_o time_n thou_o may_v the_o better_o resist_v the_o assault_n of_o the_o devil_n the_o world_n and_o the_o flesh_n this_o do_v frith_n teach_v of_o repentance_n let_v the_o world_n take_v it_o as_o they_o will_v but_o chryste_n sheep_n do_v hear_v his_o voice_n ¶_o the_o three_o error_n which_o rastell_n lay_v against_o i_o be_v that_o i_o will_v make_v man_n believe_v that_o they_o need_v not_o to_o do_v penance_n for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o their_o sin_n every_o child_n may_v answer_v he_o to_o this_o if_o he_o ever_o read_v or_o perceive_v what_o i_o write_v before_o of_o repentance_n for_o as_o they_o take_v repentance_n for_o the_o sorrow_n and_o mourning_n that_o follow_v the_o crime_n even_o so_o they_o call_v penance_n the_o good_a work_n that_o ensue_v of_o repentance_n and_o these_o good_a work_n which_o follow_v do_o mortify_v the_o member_n and_o membre_n exercise_v we_o in_o god_n commandment_n that_o we_o sin_n no_o more_o but_o they_o can_v get_v no_o more_o remission_n of_o the_o sin_n which_o be_v once_o past_a then_o that_o which_o they_o call_v repentance_n and_o yet_o do_v we_o neither_o destroy_n sorow_v for_o sin_n nor_o good_a work_n as_o he_o false_o report_v by_o we_o but_o we_o teach_v you_o how_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v do_v and_o that_o they_o be_v fruit_n of_o faith_n and_o mortify_v our_o member_n and_o be_v profitable_a to_o our_o neighbour_n and_o a_o testinony_n unto_o we_o faith_n that_o we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o our_o heavenly_a father_n as_o by_o example_n i_o say_v that_o neither_o the_o sun_n nor_o the_o moon_n do_v iustiune_n we_o or_o purchase_v remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o yet_o i_o will_v not_o that_o rastell_n shall_v say_v that_o i_o deny_v or_o destroy_v the_o sun_n and_o the_o moon_n for_o i_o say_v that_o without_o they_o we_o can_v have_v no_o light_n and_o that_o we_o can_v not_o be_v without_o they_o and_o as_o touch_v the_o solution_n of_o this_o that_o penance_n take_v in_o his_o large_a signification_n both_o for_o good_a work_n and_o take_v of_o pain_n be_v not_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n i_o must_v tell_v you_o once_o again_o that_o there_o be_v two_o manner_n of_o satisfaction_n the_o one_o be_v to_o god_n the_o other_o to_o my_o neighbour_n to_o god_n satisfaction_n can_v not_o all_o the_o world_n make_v satisfaction_n for_o one_o crime_n insomuch_o that_o if_o every_o grass_n of_o the_o ground_n be_v a_o man_n as_o holy_a as_o ever_o be_v paul_n or_o peter_n and_o shall_v pray_v unto_o god_n all_o their_o life_n long_o for_o one_o crime_n yet_o can_v they_o not_o make_v satisfaction_n for_o it_o but_o it_o be_v only_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o have_v make_v full_a satisfaction_n unto_o god_n for_o all_o such_o crime_n heb._n 7_z or_o else_o be_v 7._o there_o none_o other_o remedy_n but_o we_o shall_v all_o perish_v there_o be_v a_o other_o satisfaction_n which_o be_v to_o my_o neighbour_n who_o i_o have_v offend_v who_o i_o be_o neighbour_n bind_v to_o pacify_v as_o we_o two_o can_v agree_v and_o as_o the_o law_n of_o the_o realm_n determine_v between_o we_o as_o if_o i_o have_v defame_v he_o then_o be_o i_o bind_v to_o pacify_v he_o and_o to_o restore_v he_o to_o his_o good_a name_n again_o if_o i_o have_v murder_v any_o man_n then_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o realm_n i_o must_v dye_v for_o it_o to_o pacify_v my_o neighbour_n &_o the_o common_a wealth_n but_o yet_o i_o be_o sure_a rastell_n be_v not_o so_o childish_a as_o to_o think_v that_o this_o civyle_n satisfaction_n be_v the_o very_a satisfaction_n which_o pacifi_v god_n wrath_n for_o break_v his_o law_n for_o if_o thou_o murder_v a_o man_n and_o shall_v dye_v a_o hundred_o time_n for_o it_o yet_o except_o thou_o have_v satisfaction_n of_o christ_n blood_n thou_o shall_v be_v damn_v thereto_o and_o so_o i_o speak_v that_o no_o temporal_a pain_n be_v institute_v of_o god_n for_o the_o intent_n that_o we_o shall_v satisfy_v god_n wrath_n thereby_o as_o it_o be_v plain_a in_o my_o book_n if_o rastell_n can_v see_v ¶_o the_o four_o error_n that_o he_o lay_v against_o i_o be_v that_o i_o will_v persuade_v the_o people_n that_o good_a work_n be_v nothing_o available_a now_o be_v we_o come_v to_o the_o fourthe_a error_n where_o rastell_n untrue_o report_v on_o i_o that_o i_o will_v persuade_v the_o people_n that_o good_a work_v do_v by_o any_o man_n in_o this_o world_n be_v nothing_o avayleable_a unto_o he_o that_o do_v they_o &_o that_o it_o be_v no_o hurt_n nor_o hindrance_n unto_o any_o man_n though_o he_o never_o do_v none_o because_o i_o say_v they_o justify_v not_o before_o god_n therefore_o he_o think_v that_o other_o man_n will_v understand_v i_o as_o wise_o as_o he_o do_v and_o argue_v that_o they_o be_v no_o thing_n avayleable_a but_o i_o must_v desire_v he_o to_o put_v on_o his_o spectacle_n and_o look_v again_o upon_o my_o book_n and_o he_o shall_v find_v these_o word_n peradventure_o why_o thou_o will_v answer_v unto_o i_o shall_v i_o then_o do_v no_o good_a deed_n i_o answer_v yes_o thou_o will_v answer_v i_o wherefore_o i_o answer_v thou_o must_v do_v they_o because_o god_n have_v command_v they_o i_o answer_v thou_o be_v lyve_a in_o this_o world_n with_o man_n and_o have_v conversation_n with_o they_o therefore_o have_v god_n appoint_v thou_o what_o thou_o shall_v do_v to_o the_o profit_n of_o

be_v compel_v to_o glorify_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n math._n 5._o and_o so_o be_v they_o both_o profitable_a unto_o thy_o neighbour_n god_n &_o also_o a_o testimony_n unto_o thou_o by_o the_o which_o a_o man_n may_v know_v that_o thou_o be_v the_o right_a son_n of_o thy_o heavenly_a father_n and_o a_o very_a christ_n unto_o thy_o neighbour_n and_o after_o teach_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v these_o work_v without_o have_v respect_n either_o to_o heaven_n or_o hell_n but_o attend_v through_o charity_n the_o wealth_n of_o our_o neighbour_n etc._n etc._n i_o wonder_v that_o rastell_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o say_v that_o i_o will_v make_v they_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v not_o avaylable_a therefore_o good_a reader_n note_v my_o word_n first_o i_o say_v we_o must_v do_v they_o because_o god_n have_v command_v they_o be_v it_o not_o avaylable_a to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n secondary_o i_o say_v that_o they_o be_v to_o the_o profit_n of_o my_o neighbour_n be_v it_o not_o avaylable_a three_o i_o say_v that_o they_o tame_v our_o flesh_n be_v it_o not_o available_a fourthly_a i_o say_v they_o be_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n be_v it_o not_o available_a five_o i_o say_v they_o be_v a_o testimony_n to_o they_o that_o do_v they_o by_o the_o which_o man_n may_v know_v y_o it_o he_o be_v
very_a face_n in_o the_o glass_n and_o even_o so_o though_o the_o sacrament_n do_v represent_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n yet_o the_o substance_n glass_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o his_o very_a

example_n make_v well_o for_o us._n and_o for_o that_o one_o word_n come_v whole_a to_o a_o hundred_o ear_n i_o say_v that_o word_n be_v but_o a_o sound_n and_o a_o quality_n and_o not_o a_o substance_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o our_o purpose_n and_o can_v not_o be_v liken_v to_o christ_n body_n which_o be_v a_o substance_n and_o as_o concern_v the_o sight_n of_o the_o little_a eye_n i_o say_v that_o though_o the_o eye_n descry_v and_o see_v a_o whole_a country_n yet_o be_v not_o that_o whole_a country_n in_o the_o eye_n but_o as_o the_o country_n be_v know_v by_o

though_o his_o natural_a body_n be_v not_o in_o it_o and_o thus_o his_o example_n make_v nothing_o with_o he_o but_o rather_o much_o against_o he_o and_o where_o he_o say_v that_o the_o young_a man_n himself_o can_v geve_v he_o no_o reason_n by_o what_o mean_v they_o may_v be_v do_v i_o may_v say_v unto_o his_o mastership_n that_o when_o i_o be_v seven_o year_n young_a than_o i_o be_o this_o day_n i_o will_v have_v be_v ashamed_a if_o i_o can_v not_o have_v give_v a_o evident_a reason_n at_o the_o austin_n in_o oxford_n before_o y_z e_z whole_a university_n and_o albeit_o i_o now_o vouchsafe_v not_o to_o spend_v labour_n and_o paper_n about_o aristotle_n doctrine_n yet_o have_v i_o so_o much_o touch_v his_o example_n that_o he_o may_v be_v werye_o of_o they_o also_o i_o can_v not_o see_v why_o it_o shall_v be_v more_o repugnaunt_a that_o one_o body_n more_o may_v be_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o two_o place_n at_o once_o than_o that_o two_o body_n may_v be_v together_o in_o

can_v not_o allow_v it_o but_o that_o two_o body_n shall_v be_v in_o one_o place_n seem_v more_o reasonable_a for_o i_o have_v good_a experience_n that_o though_o my_o body_n can_v not_o be_v in_o

at_o once_o &_o not_o in_o all_o but_o in_o all_o place_n he_o can_v not_o be_v wherefore_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o he_o can_v not_o be_v in_o many_o place_n at_o once_o this_o be_v a_o marvellous_a conclude_v argument_n i_o be_o sure_a that_o every_o child_n may_v soon_o see_v that_o this_o consequent_a can_v never_o follow_v upon_o these_o two_o premise_n of_o this_o antecedent_n when_o i_o make_v this_o reason_n &_o compile_v my_o treatise_n i_o have_v no_o regard_n to_o frith_n the_o cavillation_n of_o sutle_a sophister_n for_o i_o think_v no_o sophister_n shall_v have_v

shall_v be_v in_o many_o place_n must_v be_v because_o y_fw-es â—_o body_n be_v so_o annex_v with_o the_o godhead_n that_o it_o be_v in_o every_o place_n as_o the_o godhead_n be_v this_o i_o say_v must_v be_v the_o cause_n and_o reason_n of_o his_o be_v in_o many_o place_n and_o neither_o you_o nor_o no_o man_n else_o can_v just_o assign_v any_o other_o now_o of_o this_o mayor_n or_o first_o

as_o by_o example_n the_o astronomer_n say_v that_o the_o natural_a east_n course_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v from_o the_o west_n to_o the_o east_n now_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v ask_v they_o what_o be_v then_o the_o cause_n that_o we_o see_v he_o daily_o take_v the_o contrary_a course_n from_o the_o east_n to_o the_o west_n against_o his_o nature_n they_o answer_v because_o the_o hygh_a sphere_n who_o course_n be_v from_o the_o east_n to_o the_o west_n with_o his_o swift_a move_n do_v violent_o draw_v the_o inferior_a sphere_n with_o he_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o they_o allege_v and_o no_o man_n can_v assign_v any_o other_o and_o now_o since_o i_o can_v prove_v this_o sense_n false_a by_o scripture_n and_o s._n austen_n for_o scripture_n say_v that_o y_o e_o sphere_n be_v fasten_v

scripture_n they_o must_v needs_o grant_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o follow_v of_o this_o cause_n must_v needs_o be_v false_a and_o so_o we_o may_v conclude_v against_o they_o all_o that_o the_o natural_a course_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v not_o from_o the_o west_n to_o the_o east_n as_o the_o astronomer_n say_v but_o contrary_a from_o the_o astronomer_n east_n to_o the_o west_n and_o likewise_o since_o the_o cause_n that_o christ_n body_n shall_v be_v in_o many_o place_n be_v assign_v of_o learned_a man_n to_o be_v because_o his_o body_n be_v so_o annex_v with_o the_o godhead_n which_o be_v

therefore_o since_o as_o i_o say_v this_o be_v the_o cause_n assign_v &_o yet_o prove_v false_a by_o scripture_n only_o they_o must_v needs_o grant_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o follow_v of_o this_o
