urge_v upon_o our_o church_n further_o or_o on_o my_o word_n do_v slander_n and_o cavil_n and_o malitions_o deprave_v they_o and_o nothing_o else_o second_o note_v in_o my_o explication_n that_o i_o justify_v not_o this_o opinion_n of_o our_o stare_n but_o i_o say_v thus_o to_o believe_v and_o practice_v simple_o destroy_v no_o man_n salvation_n in_o christ_n which_o you_o deny_v general_o and_o vehement_o in_o your_o sixth_o answer_n you_o deny_v direct_o master_n cranmer_n etc._n etc._n to_o have_v hold_v the_o foundation_n or_o to_o be_v save_v wherein_o you_o open_o profess_v and_o proclaim_v that_o second_o general_a point_n which_o in_o the_o beginning_n i_o charge_v you_o with_o that_o all_o church_n and_o christian_n here_o in_o king_n edward_n time_n and_o namely_o master_n cranmer_n ridley_n latimer_n hooper_n philpot_n saunders_n rogers_n tayler_n etc._n etc._n hold_v not_o christ_n their_o prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n and_o so_o consequent_o they_o be_v limb_n of_o antichrist_n for_o they_o bear_v his_o mark_n even_o to_o their_o death_n and_o not_o true_a christian_n alas_o to_o see_v how_o malice_n and_o prejudice_n have_v blind_v you_o be_v there_o not_o great_a cause_n for_o we_o to_o cry_v &_o say_v against_o you_o o_o shameless_a mouth_n o_o unchristian_a heart_n which_o term_n you_o vain_o charge_v upon_o i_o be_v this_o you_o that_o white_a the_o toombs_n of_o those_o martyr_n and_o yet_o in_o fine_a condemn_v they_o for_o no_o true_a christian_n nor_o their_o assembly_n for_o church_n you_o add_v a_o clause_n they_o that_o profess_v and_o practice_v as_o do_v the_o church_n of_o england_n etc._n etc._n if_o you_o mean_v hereby_o to_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o those_o good_a man_n hold_v this_o opinion_n and_o our_o church_n now_o yea_o between_o your_o own_o late_o and_o we_o now_o speak_v out_o what_o be_v it_o you_o can_v imagine_v none_o but_o this_o those_o good_a man_n master_n cranmer_n ridley_n etc._n etc._n and_o yourself_o of_o late_a hold_v these_o very_a same_o error_n of_o the_o outward_a church_n order_n which_o we_o do_v but_o they_o and_o you_o do_v it_o seem_v of_o simplicity_n we_o malicious_o they_o of_o ignorance_n we_o of_o plain_a obstinacy_n and_o have_v a_o convict_v and_o sear_v conscience_n whereby_o they_o &_o you_o may_v be_v true_a christian_n for_o all_o these_o error_n but_o we_o now_o can_v be_v so_o if_o this_o be_v your_o meaning_n than_o you_o grant_v we_o our_o assumption_n against_o which_o all_o your_o dispute_n here_o be_v bend_v you_o grant_v it_o i_o say_v that_o the_o whole_a doctrine_n as_o it_o be_v by_o law_n in_o england_n be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o particular_a man_n a_o true_a christian_a second_o we_o now_o err_v not_o in_o these_o point_n of_o simplicity_n but_o of_o wilfulness_n and_o malice_n say_v you_o so_o speak_v that_o plain_a then_o our_o whole_a assembly_n all_o and_o every_o of_o our_o assembly_n of_o wilfulness_n and_o of_o a_o convict_v conscience_n be_v you_o sure_a of_o this_o do_v you_o know_v every_o man_n heart_n and_o conscience_n so_o well_o if_o you_o do_v than_o you_o say_v somewhat_o indeed_o but_o you_o be_v then_o near_o as_o wise_a as_o god_n himself_o to_o know_v man_n heart_n so_o perfect_o who_o face_n you_o never_o see_v you_o will_v say_v you_o know_v diverse_a who_o you_o dare_v say_v be_v convict_v in_o conscience_n that_o be_v much_o also_o to_o affirm_v but_o if_o you_o do_v that_o serve_v not_o your_o turn_n unless_o all_o be_v so_o convict_v christ_n know_v a_o great_a many_o in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n yea_o of_o the_o learn_a and_o chief_a in_o authority_n that_o be_v convict_v in_o conscience_n that_o he_o be_v the_o christ_n who_o blaspheamed_a in_o deny_v he_o and_o yet_o the_o assembly_n then_o where_o not_o convict_v they_o still_o be_v true_a church_n wherefore_o in_o this_o say_n if_o you_o say_v to_o the_o purpose_n you_o then_o affirm_v the_o three_o general_a point_n that_o i_o note_v in_o you_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o my_o last_o reply_n that_o every_o soul_n in_o england_n be_v convict_v in_o conscience_n but_o here_o i_o marvel_v that_o you_o say_v master_n hus_n and_o other_o of_o the_o holy_a martyr_n do_v hear_v and_o say_v mass_n till_o their_o die_a day_n also_o that_o other_o do_v acknowledge_v the_o pope_n supremacy_n i_o ask_v you_o do_v you_o mean_v that_o they_o hold_v and_o use_v the_o popish_a mass_n according_a to_o all_o the_o abomination_n that_o be_v in_o it_o if_o you_o think_v so_o then_o sure_o neither_o hus_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n be_v holy_a martyr_n for_o therein_o be_v find_v error_n plain_o fundamental_a which_o of_o themselves_o abolish_v from_o christ_n they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v compare_v to_o our_o public_a error_n now_o in_o england_n the_o like_a i_o say_v of_o the_o pope_n supremacy_n if_o you_o think_v any_o of_o the_o martyr_n acknowledge_v it_o in_o the_o large_a and_o ample_a meaning_n thereof_o as_o the_o popish_a doctor_n do_v set_v it_o down_o then_o very_o neither_o be_v they_o any_o martyr_n the_o book_n of_o act_n and_o monument_n whither_o you_o send_v we_o affirm_v not_o that_o they_o hold_v these_o error_n in_o the_o large_a and_o gross_a sort_n it_o may_v be_v therefore_o they_o hold_v many_o and_o grievous_a error_n of_o ignorance_n both_o in_o the_o popish_a mass_n and_o in_o the_o supremacy_n which_o may_v nevertheless_o stand_v with_o christ_n crucify_v and_o so_o they_o may_v be_v &_o be_v holy_a martyr_n but_o i_o affirm_v that_o according_a to_o the_o damnable_a grossness_n of_o the_o very_a papist_n they_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v hold_v they_o therefore_o in_o these_o instance_n you_o say_v nothing_o to_o we_o nor_o against_o the_o question_n in_o hand_n further_o you_o say_v before_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o your_o desence_n of_o this_o exception_n 13._o exception_n pag._n 13._o that_o master_n cranmer_n ridley_n latimer_n and_o

see_v you_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o untruth_n yea_o you_o be_v bold_a to_o avouch_v open_a and_o know_v falsehood_n do_v not_o master_n cranmer_n hold_v himself_o for_o archbishop_n still_o and_o that_o he_o be_v by_o the_o pope_n unjust_o and_o unsufficient_o depose_v and_o by_o queen_n mary_n forcible_o restreyn_v from_o it_o do_v he_o ever_o repent_v of_o hold_v that_o office_n till_o his_o death_n also_o do_v not_o ridley_n stand_v upon_o his_o right_n to_o the_o bishopric_n of_o london_n though_o ready_a to_o die_v latimer_n though_o he_o renounce_v his_o bishopric_n yet_o he_o keep_v his_o ministry_n and_o never_o repent_v he_o of_o it_o philpot_n never_o mislike_v h●s_o arch-deaconry_a yea_o when_o he_o refuse_v bloody_a bonner_n yer_z he_o appeal_v to_o his_o ordinary_n the_o bishop_n of_o winchester_n the_o like_a mind_n be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o bishop_n farrar_n and_o general_o whosoever_o be_v minister_n then_o of_o the_o prelate_n ordination_n they_o never_o

i_o mean_v in_o say_v that_o these_o outward_a order_n be_v not_o of_o the_o foundation_n simple_o i_o mean_v not_o at_o all_o of_o the_o very_a 14._o very_a 1_o cor._n 15.2_o 3_o 4._o rom._n 4.25_o
