that_o christ_n only_o be_v the_o head_n of_o his_o universal_a church_n we_o do_v it_o not_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o christ_n but_o we_o include_v the_o negation_n of_o a_o far_o better_a thing_n that_o be_v the_o supremacy_n of_o the_o pope_n which_o by_o your_o assertion_n be_v a_o far_o more_o better_a thing_n than_o the_o supremacy_n of_o christ_n so_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o only_o the_o scripture_n must_v be_v the_o rule_n of_o true_a religion_n it_o make_v nothing_o for_o religion_n to_o worship_n god_n as_o he_o have_v command_v but_o it_o include_v a_o negation_n of_o unwritten_a verity_n which_o be_v far_o more_o better_a thing_n than_o the_o scripture_n when_o we_o affirm_v that_o we_o must_v put_v our_o trust_n in_o god_n alone_o we_o do_v no_o honour_n to_o god_n thereby_o but_o we_o deny_v that_o man_n must_v put_v their_o trust_n in_o creature_n which_o by_o your_o rule_n be_v a_o far_o more_o better_a thing_n then_o to_o put_v our_o trust_n in_o god_n alone_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o we_o must_v pray_v to_o god_n alone_o it_o pertain_v nothing_o to_o god_n service_n but_o include_v the_o negation_n of_o pray_v unto_o saint_n which_o be_v a_o far_o more_o better_a thing_n then_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n and_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o the_o only_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n passion_n be_v sufficient_a for_o our_o salvation_n we_o yield_v no_o honour_n to_o god_n thereby_o but_o deny_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n which_o be_v a_o far_o better_a thing_n than_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n passion_n and_o thus_o if_o i_o have_v leisure_n and_o pleasure_n as_o you_o have_v to_o number_v example_n by_o ten_o and_o by_o twenty_n i_o may_v rehearse_v a_o whole_a hundred_o of_o the_o like_a sort_n the_o papist_n as_o for_o

paul_n say_v be_v much_o far_o better_a the_o answer_n we_o so_o affirm_v marriage_n of_o ecclesiastical_a minister_n as_o a_o honourable_a and_o a_o chaste_a life_n neither_o do_v we_o deny_v

and_o nonnes_n may_v marry_v together_o be_v a_o flat_a deny_v of_o the_o vow_n of_o chastity_n which_o by_o saint_n paul_n judgement_n be_v far_o better_a the_o answer_n we_o deny_v not_o the_o observation_n of_o any_o promise_n or_o vow_n which_o be_v lawful_a for_o man_n to_o make_v and_o possible_a for_o they_o to_o perform_v neither_o do_v saint_n paul_n at_o any_o time_n commend_v any_o such_o vow_n or_o allow_v they_o to_o be_v keep_v but_o give_v a_o general_a rule_n that_o to_o avoid_v fornication_n let_v every_o man_n have_v his_o wife_n and_o every_o woman_n her_o husband_n i_o

the_o church_n if_o you_o will_v needs_o understand_v they_o for_o nonnes_n saint_n paul_n say_v it_o be_v better_a for_o they_o that_o be_v under_o three_o score_n year_n old_a to_o marry_v and_o

of_o for_o we_o wish_v that_o adulterer_n accord_v to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v punish_v with_o death_n but_o if_o the_o civil_a law_n do_v fail_v in_o that_o point_n the_o next_o remedy_n for_o the_o innocent_a party_n be_v divorcement_n and_o after_o divorcement_n marriage_n if_o he_o can_v not_o live_v unmarried_a for_o our_o saviour_n christ_n except_v the_o case_n of_o
