she_o that_o if_o any_o write_n be_v put_v into_o her_o hand_n by_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o she_o will_v send_v it_o either_o to_o he_o or_o the_o then_o bishop_n of_o oxford_n who_o he_o le●t_v in_o attendance_n upon_o she_o blandford_n after_o which_o he_o say_v she_o be_v many_o day_n with_o he_o at_o farnham_n 14._o in_o all_o which_o time_n she_o speak_v not_o one_o

religion_n so_o that_o it_o be_v evident_a she_o do_v not_o make_v use_n of_o the_o ordinary_a mean_n for_o she_o own_o satisfaction_n at_o least_o a_o to_o th●se_a bishop_n who_o have_v know_v her_o long_a but_o she_o say_v that_o she_o speak_v several_o to_o two_o of_o the_o best_a bishop_n we_o have_v in_o england_n who_o both_o tell_v she_o there_o be_v many_o ●hings_n in_o the_o roman_a

the_o ancient_a thing_n in_o christianity_n that_o for_o their_o part_n they_o do_v it_o daily_o worcester_n though_o they_o will_v not_o own_v it_o and_o afterward_o press_v one_o of_o they_o very_o much_o upon_o the_o other_o point_n he_o tell_v she_o that_o if_o he_o have_v be_v breed_v a_o catholic_n he_o will_v not_o change_v his_o religion_n but_o that_o be_v of_o another_o church_n wherein_o he_o be_v sure_o be_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n he_o think_v it_o very_o ill_a to_o give_v that_o scandal_n as_o to_o leave_v that_o church_n wherein_o he_o receive_v his_o baptism_n which_o discourse_n she_o ●aid_v do_v but_o add_v more_o to_o the_o desire_n she_o have_v to_o be_v a_o catholic_n this_o i_o confess_v seem_v to_o be_v to_o the_o purpose_n if_o there_o be_v not_o some_o circumstance_n and_o expression_n very_o much_o mistake_v in_o the_o representation_n of_o it_o but_o yet_o suppose_v the_o utmost_a to_o be_v allow_v there_o can_v be_v no_o argument_n from_o hence_o draw_v for_o leave_v the_o communion_n of_o our_o church_n if_o this_o bishop_n authority_n or_o example_n do_v signify_v any_o thing_n with_o she_o for_o suppose_v he_o do_v say_v that_o if_o he_o have_v be_v breed_v in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n he_o will_v not_o change_v his_o religion_n yet_o he_o add_v that_o be_v of_o another_o church_n wherein_o be_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n he_o think_v it_o very_o ill_a to_o give_v that_o scandal_n as_o to_o leave_v that_o church_n wherein_o he_o have_v receive_v his_o baptism_n now_o why_o shall_v not_o the_o last_o word_n have_v great_a force_n to_o have_v keep_v she_o in_o the_o communion_n of_o our_o church_n than_o the_o former_a to_o have_v draw_v she_o from_o it_o for_o why_o shall_v any_o person_n forsake_v the_o communion_n of_o our_o church_n unless_o it_o appear_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n so_o to_o do_v and_o yet_o this_o yield_a bishop_n do_v affirm_v that_o all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n be_v certain_o in_o our_o church_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o ill_a thing_n to_o leave_v it_o how_o can_v this_o add_v to_o her_o desire_n of_o leave_v our_o church_n unless_o there_o be_v some_o other_o motive_n to_o draw_v she_o thither_o and_o then_o such_o small_a inducement_n will_v serve_v to_o inflame_v such_o a_o desire_n but_o it_o be_v evident_a from_o her_o own_o word_n afterward_o that_o these_o concession_n of_o the_o b●shop_n can_v have_v no_o influence_n upon_o she_o for_o she_o declare_v and_o call_v god_n to_o witness_v that_o she_o will_v never_o have_v change_v her_o religion_n if_o she_o have_v think_v it_o possible_a to_o save_v her_o soul_n otherwise_o now_o what_o can_v the_o bishop_n word_n signify_v towards_o her_o turn_v when_o he_o declare_v just_a contrary_n viz._n not_o only_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o she_o to_o be_v save_v without_o turn_v but_o that_o he_o be_v sure_a we_o have_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a ill_a thing_n to_o leave_v our_o church_n there_o must_v therefore_o have_v be_v some_o more_o secret_a reason_n which_o increase_v her_o desire_n to_o be_v a_o catholic_n after_o these_o discourse_n unless_o the_o advantage_n be_v take_v from_o the_o bishop_n calling_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o catholic_n religion_n if_o he_o have_v be_v breed_v a_o catholic_n he_o will_v not_o have_v change_v his_o religion_n but_o if_o we_o take_v these_o word_n so_o strict_o he_o must_v have_v contradict_v himself_o for_o how_o can_v he_o be_v sure_a we_o have_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvotion_n if_o we_o be_v out_o of_o the_o catholic_n church_n be_v a_o b●shop_n of_o our_o church_n and_o one_o of_o the_o best_a bishop_n of_o our_o church_n as_o she_o say_v so_o weak_a as_o to_o yield_v that_o he_o be_v sure_o all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n be_v to_o be_v have_v out_o of_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n but_o again_o there_o be_v a_o inconsistency_n in_o his_o say_n ●hat_n he_o think_v it_o very_o ill_a to_o leave_v our_o church_n which_o no_o man_n of_o common_a sense_n will_v have_v s●id_v if_o he_o have_v believe_v the_o roman_a church_n to_o be_v the_o catholic_n exclusive_a of_o all_o other_o that_o do_v not_o join_v in_o communion_n with_o it_o the_o utmost_a then_o that_o can_v be_v make_v of_o all_o this_o be_v that_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a bishop_n of_o this_o church_n who_o hold_v both_o church_n to_o be_v so_o far_o part_v of_o the_o catholic_n church_n that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n of_o go_v from_o one_o church_n to_o another_o but_o if_o he_o assert_v that_o he_o must_v overthrow_v the_o necessity_n of_o the_o reformation_n and_o consequent_o not_o believe_v our_o article_n and_o homily_n and_o so_o can_v not_o be_v any_o true_a member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o the_o late_a bishop_n of_o winchester_n have_v make_v a_o short_a answer_n to_o all_o this_o for_o he_o first_o doubt_n whether_o there_o ever_o be_v any_o such_o bishop_n who_o make_v such_o answer_n and_o afterward_o he_o affirm_v that_o he_o believe_v there_o never_o be_v in_o rerum_fw-la naturâ_fw-la such_o a_o discourse_n as_o be_v pretend_v to_o have_v be_v between_o this_o great_a person_n 4._o and_o two_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a bishop_n of_o england_n but_o god_n be_v thank_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o church_n do_v not_o depend_v upon_o the_o singular_a opinion_n of_o one_o or_o two_o bishop_n in_o it_o wherein_o they_o apparent_o recede_v from_o the_o establish_a doctrine_n of_o it_o and_o i_o be_o sure_a those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n take_v it_o ill_o from_o we_o to_o be_v charge_v with_o the_o opinion_n of_o particular_a divine_n against_o the_o know_a sentiment_n of_o their_o church_n therefore_o suppose_v the_o matter_n of_o fact_n true_a it_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v move_v she_o to_o any_o inclination_n to_o leave_v the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o after_o all_o she_o protest_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o almighty_a god_n that_o no_o person_n man_n or_o woman_n direct_o or_o indirect_o ever_o say_v any_o thing_n to_o she_o since_o she_o come_v into_o england_n or_o use_v the_o least_o endeavour_n to_o make_v she_o change_v her_o religion_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o blessing_n she_o whole_o owe_v to_o almighty_a god_n so_o that_o the_o bishop_n be_v acquit_v from_o have_v any_o hand_n in_o it_o by_o her_o own_o word_n and_o as_o far_o as_o we_o can_v understand_v her_o meaning_n she_o think_v herself_o convert_v by_o immediate_a divine_a illumination_n we_o have_v think_v the_o pretence_n to_o a_o private_a spirit_n have_v not_o be_v at_o this_o time_n allow_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o i_o observe_v that_o many_o thing_n be_v allow_v to_o bring_v person_n to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o they_o will_v not_o permit_v in_o those_o who_o go_v from_o it_o as_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n in_o the_o choice_n of_o a_o church_n the_o judgement_n of_o sense_n and_o here_o that_o which_o they_o will_v severe_o condemn_v in_o other_o as_o a_o private_a spirit_n or_o enthusiasm_n will_v pass_v well_o enough_o if_o it_o do_v but_o lead_v one_o to_o their_o communion_n any_o motive_n or_o method_n be_v good_a enough_o which_o tend_v to_o that_o end_n and_o none_o can_v be_v sufficient_a against_o it_o but_o why_o may_v not_o other_o set_n up_o for_o the_o change_n as_o to_o other_o opinion_n upon_o the_o same_o ground_n as_o well_o as_o this_o great_a person_n
