A41777	The forerunner to a further answer (if need be) to two books lately published against Tho.

say_v dr._n pierce_n a_o learned_a and_o able_a minister_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n servetus_n be_v burn_v at_o geneva_n for_o less_o than_o be_v a_o socinian_n and_o who_o be_v not_o so_o

the_o sentence_n nor_o find_v i_o any_o thing_n say_v he_o pretend_v against_o servetus_n which_o be_v so_o high_o blasphemous_a as_o to_o make_v god_n the_o author_n or_o cause_n of_o sin_n and_o how_o well_o calvin_n can_v tell_v his_o own_o tale_n and_o how_o diligent_a he_o be_v in_o be_v the_o first_o informer_n of_o his_o affair_n we_o may_v guess_v by_o his_o epistle_n 164_o 165_o which_o he_o write_v to_o the_o four_o helvetian_a city_n for_o gain_v authority_n to_o his_o new_a device_n for_o let_v they_o say_v what_o they_o please_v to_o lessen_v the_o gild_n of_o that_o

by_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n one_o or_o two_o of_o the_o copy_n escape_v the_o flame_n and_o we_o be_v assure_v by_o peerless_a grotius_n that_o in_o the_o copy_n which_o he_o see_v he_o can_v

say_v he_o they_o be_v bury_v indeed_o so_o that_o this_o faith_n be_v agree_v of_o all_o man_n that_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a spirit_n be_v one_o god_n and_o yet_o the_o father_n be_v not_o the_o son_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o son_n but_o distinct_a by_o certain_a property_n institut_n l._n 1._o c._n 13._o sect._n 3_o and_o this_o his_o tres_fw-la proprietates_fw-la be_v object_v against_o he_o by_o some_o of_o the_o learned_a protestant_n and_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n shall_v i_o write_v of_o the_o bless_a trinity_n as_o mr._n calvin_n have_v do_v mr._n finch_n and_o his_o forerunner_n will_v cry_v out_o blasphemy_n 2._o he_o condemn_v the_o ancient_a father_n because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o his_o mind_n in_o the_o case_n of_o irrespective_a reprobation_n but_o hold_v that_o there_o be_v salvation_n for_o all_o man_n through_o god_n mercy_n in_o the_o gift_n of_o his_o son_n he_o brand_v they_o say_v a_o learned_a protestant_n as_o pelagianise_v in_o their_o opinion_n but_o 3._o his_o rudeness_n of_o speech_n be_v intolerable_a he_o call_v great_a and_o good_a man_n by_o title_n unseemly_a as_o serpent_n pest_n lossel_n fool_n knave_n devil_n filthy_a dog_n impudent_a hangman_n etc._n etc._n and_o bucer_n a_o learned_a protestant_n call_v he_o fratricide_n a_o murderer_n of_o his_o brethren_n and_o grotius_n say_v he_o grow_v worse_a and_o worse_o and_o that_o calvin_n '_o s_z disciple_n be_v such_o themselves_o in_o disposition_n as_o they_o make_v god_n to_o be_v in_o their_o imagination_n towards_o the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n and_o true_o this_o be_v too_o apparent_a in_o two_o of_o his_o follower_n i_o mean_v the_o little_a praecursor_n and_o mr._n finch_n who_o study_n have_v be_v to_o render_v i_o very_o odious_a though_o i_o be_o sure_a they_o know_v no_o evil_a by_o i_o more_o no_o nor_o so_o much_o as_o they_o know_v by_o themselves_o and_o yet_o thus_o i_o be_o represent_v by_o they_o viz._n audacious_a impudent_a turbulent_a impetuous_a impertinent_a scurrilous_a prejudice_v mechanic_n a_o fool_n despicable_a wise_a mr._n grantham_n a_o despise_a man_n coxcomb_n addle-brain_n dull_a kitching-pate_n clown_n

that_o worship_v the_o holy_a trinity_n one_o like_o a_o woman_n scold_v and_o quarrel_v in_o the_o street_n one_o like_o a_o impertinent_a woman_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o i_o think_v these_o two_o calvinist_n have_v come_v near_o the_o pitch_n of_o their_o master_n and_o such_o as_o will_v not_o spare_v man_n reputation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v trust_v with_o their_o life_n any_o more_o than_o mr._n calvin_n 5._o there_o be_v one_o thing_n which_o run_v through_o mr._n f_n epistle_n and_o book_n and_o that_o be_v a_o talk_n of_o special_a discriminate_a grace_n as_o if_o god_n grace_n

even_o the_o least_o measure_n of_o grace_n from_o god_n to_o be_v a_o special_a favour_n and_o such_o as_o in_o its_o nature_n and_o effect_n if_o it_o be_v all_o that_o ●e_v design_v for_o thou_o
