they_o be_v so_o plain_a &_o pregnant_a that_o a_o chief_a adversary_n be_v force_v to_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v frequent_a mention_n in_o the_o ancient_a writer_n treak_v of_o the_o eucharist_n of_o the_o word_n sacrifice_n oblation_n host_n victim_n to_o which_o may_v be_v add_v that_o the_o same_o father_n in_o like_a manner_n use_v the_o word_n altar_n &_o priest_n very_o common_o all_o which_o be_v so_o fit_a for_o the_o purpose_n of_o signifi_n a_o true_a &_o proper_a sacrifice_n that_o no_o writer_n either_o divine_a or_o profane_a can_v ever_o invent_v other_o more_o significant_a &_o apt_a as_o it_o undoubted_o appear_v for_o that_o their_o writing_n manifest_a that_o they_o never_o use_v any_o other_o word_n or_o phrase_n when_o they_o treat_v of_o the_o nature_n &_o use_n of_o a_o proper_a sacrifice_n since_o this_o i_o say_v be_v so_o apparent_o true_a i_o earnest_o request_v of_o my_o reader_n to_o consider_v how_o void_a not_o only_o of_o reason_n but_o also_o of_o common_a sense_n the_o sectary_n of_o this_o our_o present_a age_n may_v just_o be_v judge_v &_o how_o shameless_o obstinate_a they_o be_v who_o deny_v that_o to_o be_v a_o true_a &_o proper_a sacrifice_n which_o be_v as_o plain_o affirm_v to_o be_v such_o both_o by_o scripture_n itself_o &_o the_o true_a interpreter_n there_o of_o as_o in_o word_n &_o phrase_n they_o

against_o the_o english_a relion_n &_o hence_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o my_o treatise_n in_o which_o i_o will_v positive_o demonstrate_v by_o six_o other_o affirmative_a argument_n the_o truth_n of_o the_o roman_a faith_n now_o profess_v in_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n frame_v &_o compound_v my_o silogisme_n of_o the_o contradictory_n proposition_n to_o

of_o the_o english_a religion_n in_o regard_n that_o there_o be_v only_o their_o religion_n &_o we_o here_o in_o question_n they_o being_n false_a as_o i_o have_v plain_o demonstrate_v we_o must_v

faith_n &_o religion_n the_o hrst_n principal_a argument_n i_o propound_v my_o first_o syllogism_n in_o this_o form_n &_o manner_n that_o only_a religion_n be_v true_a which_o be_v true_o catholic_a but_o the_o roman_a religion_n only_o be_v true_o catholic_a therefore_o the_o roman_a religion_n be_v the_o only_a true_a religion_n the_o mayor_n need_v no_o proof_n as_o be_v grant_v by_o our_o

&_o true_o dispose_v the_o consequence_n can_v fail_v the_o minor_a which_o our_o antagonist_n deny_v i_o prone_a because_o the_o roman_a religion_n only_o have_v all_o the_o condition_n require_v to_o true_a catho●●●●●●e_n that_o be_v it_o have_v universality_n of_o matter_n or_o object_n of_o faith_n it_o have_v universallitie_n of_o time_n place_n &_o person_n that_o profess_v it_o &_o
