compose_v this_o short_a treatise_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o confirmation_n for_o two_o cause_n the_o one_o be_v to_o supply_v the_o bishop_n of_o chalcedon_n his_o want_n of_o opportunity_n sufficient_o to_o instruct_v those_o to_o who_o he_o minister_v this_o sacrament_n for_o the_o holy_a council_n of_o trent_n command_v bishop_n that_o at_o what_o time_n they_o administer_v this_o sacrament_n they_o shall_v declare_v to_o the_o people_n the_o dignity_n and_o profit_n thereof_o that_o thereby_o they_o may_v come_v more_o worthy_o to_o receive_v it_o and_o that_o he_o have_v seldom_o opportunity_n to_o make_v any_o such_o sufficient_a declaration_n i_o think_v it_o fit_a to_o supply_v the_o want_n of_o his_o speech_n by_o this_o my_o writing_n the_o other_o be_v to_o instruct_v both_o those_o who_o have_v receive_v this_o sacrament_n how_o great_a a_o benefit_n they_o have_v receive_v that_o thereby_o they_o may_v be_v the_o more_o grateful_a unto_o almighty_a god_n and_o more_o careful_a not_o to_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a but_o to_o make_v use_n thereof_o to_o their_o great_a glory_n and_o happiness_n and_o also_o to_o let_v those_o who_o have_v not_o yet_o receive_v know_v what_o obligation_n they_o have_v to_o receive_v it_o and_o what_o a_o great_a good_a they_o want_v that_o thereby_o they_o may_v do_v their_o best_a to_o procure_v it_o and_o because_o i_o write_v only_o to_o catholic_n i_o prove_v not_o that_o either_o it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n or_o that_o it_o give_v grace_n or_o imprint_v a_o spiritual_a character_n in_o our_o soul_n but_o suppose_v all_o these_o point_n which_o the_o catholic_a faith_n teach_v we_o i_o only_o attend_v to_o show_v the_o necessity_n spiritual_a profit_n and_o excellency_n of_o this_o sacrament_n and_o this_o i_o do_v not_o so_o full_o as_o perhaps_o the_o learned_a will_v expect_v and_o the_o matter_n require_v nor_o as_o perchance_o i_o can_v if_o i_o have_v more_o leisure_n or_o more_o store_n of_o book_n but_o so_o far_o as_o may_v give_v the_o learned_a occasion_n to_o think_v of_o more_o and_o so_o to_o profect_v this_o treatise_n and_o as_o may_v suffice_v to_o the_o unlearned_a to_o know_v their_o duty_n towards_o this_o sacrament_n as_o by_o diverse_a good_a treatise_n in_o our_o english_a tongue_n they_o learn_v their_o duty_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n of_o confession_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a altar_n and_o i_o wish_v they_o have_v the_o like_a treatise_n of_o all_o the_o other_o sacrament_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v better_o know_v
