with other / or els to be condemned there vncalled / wherfor this labor was required at that time of me that shuld gather our whole doctrine in to certen specyal chapters and principal articles / that if the councel schuld goo forward in ernest / all men might haue a sure knoulege wherin and how farre we wold or colud gyue place to the papistes / and againe in what senteÌ„ce and mynd we haue
