it_o be_v that_o two_o revolt_a child_n of_o this_o our_o english_a church_n and_o commonwealth_n be_v rise_v up_o in_o hostile_a manner_n against_o their_o mother_n she_o have_v decree_v even_o in_o

the_o present_a romish_a church_n have_v the_o true_a and_o formal_a essence_n of_o a_o church_n this_o then_o be_v our_o request_n that_o your_o wisdom_n will_v be_v please_v to_o take_v this_o

our_o church_n &_o commonwealth_n &_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o matter_n wherein_o we_o be_v your_o humble_a petitioner_n if_o our_o church_n have_v say_v nothing_o or_o speak_v doubtful_o of_o the_o point_n than_o we_o have_v not_o put_v it_o to_o their_o account_n as_o a_o fault_n because_o in_o all_o age_n and_o in_o the_o present_a romish_a church_n such_o divinity_n disputation_n have_v be_v and_o be_v allow_v and_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n for_o it_o for_o thereby_o the_o truth_n in_o all_o doubtful_a thing_n at_o last_o have_v be_v clear_v and_o have_v have_v the_o victory_n in_o the_o end_n and_o for_o this_o very_a cause_n the_o present_a romish_a church_n do_v voluntary_o &_o of_o choice_n give_v leave_n to_o their_o school_n to_o dispute_v the_o point_n of_o the_o concurrence_n of_o actual_a grace_n and_o man_n will_n in_o every_o supernatural_a action_n and_o of_o the_o kind_n of_o worship_n to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o image_n of_o christ_n the_o virgin_n

our_o church_n have_v deliver_v her_o judgement_n in_o a_o single_a proposition_n consist_v of_o term_n wherein_o there_o can_v be_v no_o doubt_n or_o question_n and_o the_o attribution_n be_v universal_a and_o without_o limitation_n so_o as_o no_o reasonable_a man_n can_v make_v a_o question_n of_o her_o meaning_n now_o behold_v she_o have_v not_o rest_v content_a with_o this_o which_o indeed_o be_v enough_o but_o to_o prevent_v the_o ignorant_a obstinacy_n of_o all_o opponent_n she_o have_v declare_v by_o a_o comparison_n of_o equality_n the_o extent_n and_o amplitude_n of_o her_o

conceive_v the_o present_a romish_a church_n to_o be_v whole_o destitute_a of_o every_o the_o least_o jot_n or_o tittle_n of_o the_o nature_n and_o essence_n of_o the_o true_a church_n for_o so_o it_o be_v with_o every_o society_n which_o be_v so_o far_o wide_a from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o true_a church_n as_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o now_o what_o title_n shall_v we_o give_v to_o this_o deed_n under_o what_o head_n shall_v he_o rank_n this_o offence_n what_o punishment_n or_o degree_n of_o punishment_n do_v they_o deserve_v sure_o it_o be_v not_o within_o the_o power_n of_o my_o understanding_n nor_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o my_o place_n and_o condition_n final_o to_o determine_v unto_o you_o and_o to_o your_o most_o deep_a and_o profound_a judgement_n must_v i_o appeal_v for_o that_o yet_o i_o humble_o crave_v leave_v to_o show_v my_o opinion_n lest_o i_o seem_v causeless_o to_o complain_v the_o deed_n of_o these_o man_n can_v deserve_v no_o less_o then_o to_o be_v brand_v with_o the_o name_n of_o contention_n for_o from_o a_o root_n of_o bitterness_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o contention_n it_o do_v original_o grow_v and_o arise_v i_o say_v it_o spring_v from_o hence_o because_o the_o tree_n and_o all_o the_o branch_n thereof_o savour_v of_o such_o a_o root_n and_o can_v be_v conceive_v to_o grow_v from_o other_o soil_n contention_n it_o be_v and_o nothing_o else_o because_o it_o oppose_v thing_n ordain_v and_o settle_v solemn_o and_o with_o great_a authority_n and_o so_o continue_v for_o many_o year_n together_o no_o man_n dare_v public_o and_o profess_o to_o say_v against_o it_o but_o which_o be_v most_o of_o all_o subscribe_v it_o be_v as_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o church_n by_o these_o very_a opponent_n yea_o a_o high_a degree_n of_o contention_n it_o must_v be_v account_v because_o the_o mind_n from_o whence_o it_o do_v flow_v seem_v altogether_o unquiet_a and_o restless_a who_o will_v not_o content_v himself_o with_o that_o faith_n that_o be_v thus_o establish_v i_o say_v thus_o because_o the_o party_n that_o collect_v it_o use_v all_o possible_a diligence_n and_o faithfulness_n they_o be_v learn_v and_o of_o exceed_a gravity_n and_o staydnesse_n all_o age_n with_o we_o have_v agree_v unto_o their_o judgement_n yea_o even_o these_o opponent_n have_v have_v their_o share_n in_o it_o and_o not_o in_o word_n only_o that_o pass_v away_o but_o under_o their_o own_o hand_n write_v that_o remain_v for_o ever_o can_v the_o gainsay_n of_o thing_n thus_o adorn_v and_o commend_v to_o these_o opponent_n proceed_v from_o any_o ground_n but_o the_o spirit_n that_o can_v find_v no_o place_n to_o rest_v in_o sure_o not_o and_o i_o presume_v that_o every_o advise_v man_n will_v say_v so_o with_o i_o these_o opponent_n do_v tell_v we_o and_o we_o must_v say_v so_o too_o if_o we_o will_v believe_v they_o that_o it_o be_v charity_n towards_o the_o romish_a church_n that_o hatch_v this_o deed_n but_o we_o must_v not_o trust_v they_o the_o father_n and_o the_o child_n be_v so_o unlike_a what_o do_v charity_n bid_v they_o hate_v their_o friend_n love_v he_o indeed_o that_o pull_v out_o his_o mother_n heart_n to_o give_v life_n to_o her_o vow_a foe_n these_o opponent_n may_v say_v so_o because_o this_o their_o deed_n sort_v with_o it_o but_z he_o that_o have_v his_o eye_n in_o his_o head_n will_v reckon_v they_o among_o that_o number_n who_o cast_v about_o firebrand_n and_o deadly_a thing_n and_o say_v i_o be_o in_o jest_n prov._n 26.19_o if_o then_o their_o charity_n be_v unfeigned_a they_o will_v love_v their_o mother_n first_o and_o other_o after_o and_o in_o relation_n unto_o she_o see_v then_o these_o opponent_n do_v not_o so_o but_o the_o contrary_a we_o must_v conclude_v not_o their_o charity_n but_o their_o contention_n form_v this_o deed_n this_o deed_n can_v be_v no_o less_o a_o sin_n against_o god_n and_o i_o think_v other_o will_v say_v so_o with_o i_o though_o i_o give_v no_o other_o reason_n for_o it_o but_o the_o odious_a account_n which_o the_o apostle_n make_v of_o such_o as_o be_v contentious_a 1_o cor._n 11.16_o a_o offence_n it_o be_v against_o our_o state_n because_o the_o continuance_n in_o thing_n well_o order_v be_v a_o fundamental_a law_n in_o every_o commonwealth_n so_o be_v it_o a_o offence_n heinous_a and_o grievous_a for_o he_o that_o sever_v and_o pul●s_v asunder_o the_o limb_n of_o the_o body_n destroy_v the_o person_n and_o he_o that_o do_v so_o must_v be_v reckon_v a_o main_a and_o principal_a
destroyer_n thereof_o and_o thus_o do_v these_o opponent_n the_o life_n of_o our_o church_n and_o all_o the_o member_n thereof_o be_v make_v and_o unite_v together_o into_o one_o body_n by_o the_o article_n of_o her_o faith_n he_o then_o that_o overthrow_n and_o destroy_v those_o article_n discipate_v and_o hail_v in_o piece_n her_o whole_a body_n and_o be_v and_o thus_o do_v these_o opponent_n in_o their_o deed_n in_o question_n punishment_n be_v due_a unto_o they_o &_o so_o much_o i_o hope_v i_o may_v say_v without_o offence_n unto_o your_o high_a and_o honourable_a authority_n because_o the_o thing_n itself_o be_v so_o apparent_a very_o reason_n itself_o do_v tell_v we_o the_o subversion_n of_o every_o be_v that_o be_v good_a make_v guilty_a of_o punishment_n now_o the_o deed_n in_o question_n be_v a_o subversion_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o church_n of_o england_n by_o the_o same_o rule_n must_v needs_o likewise_o make_v so_o guilty_a the_o degree_n of_o this_o punishment_n i_o dare_v not_o name_n i_o may_v not_o think_v upon_o see_v the_o cause_n now_o in_o hand_n be_v present_v before_o your_o sacred_a tribunal_n who_o office_n it_o be_v to_o discern_v determine_v and_o adjudge_v the_o same_o yet_o with_o all_o submission_n i_o crave_v a_o word_n or_o two_o of_o that_o matter_n if_o any_o under_o the_o command_n of_o rome_n shall_v oppose_v the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o trent_n council_n especial_o where_o the_o thing_n be_v decree_v explorate_o so_o as_o no_o question_n can_v be_v make_v of_o her_o sense_n &_o meaning_n such_o a_o one_o i_o say_v shall_v be_v hold_v worthy_a of_o no_o small_a punishment_n and_o we_o certain_o know_v it_o because_o such_o person_n be_v pronounce_v accurse_v by_o that_o council_n &_o pursue_v with_o fire_n and_o all_o extremity_n as_o perpetual_a experience_n do_v show_v if_o these_o opponent_n live_v in_o that_o church_n &_o shall_v defend_v this_o sentence_n the_o office_n of_o judge_v the_o sense_n &_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n belong_v not_o to_o the_o church_n we_o may_v easy_o guess_v at_o their_o punishment_n if_o then_o hat_n church_n esteem_v such_o opposition_n unto_o her_o faith_n to_o demerit_n so_o high_o how_o can_v we_o esteem_v to_o deserve_v but_o little_a see_v what_o their_o faith_n be_v to_o they_o the_o same_o our_o faith_n be_v to_o we_o but_o with_o this_o difference_n their_o faith_n be_v erroneous_a so_o be_v not_o we_o as_o the_o ensue_a discourse_n will_v evident_o show_v how_o much_o than_o a_o opposition_n to_o a_o erroneous_a faith_n be_v less_o hurtful_a than_o a_o opposition_n to_o a_o true_a faith_n so_o much_o more_o punishment_n doto_fw-mi be_v deserve_v that_o oppose_v we_o more_o than_o he_o that_o oppose_v they_o &_o thus_o much_o be_v all_o wherewith_o i_o will_v trouble_v you_o touch_v the_o deed_n in_o question_n now_o i_o hope_v i_o may_v also_o without_o reproof_n show_v some_o other_o reason_n whereupon_o to_o move_v you_o if_o this_o deed_n be_v let_v pass_v without_o control_v see_v what_o will_v follow_v 1._o our_o enemy_n of_o the_o romish_a church_n will_v triumph_v over_o we_o and_o thus_o they_o will_v argue_v with_o you_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n for_o where_o that_o be_v there_o be_v unity_n and_o a_o mean_n of_o unity_n in_o all_o matter_n of_o faith_n but_o these_o be_v not_o with_o you_o for_o see_v your_o church_n believe_v that_o the_o romish_a church_n have_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o true_a church_n yet_o two_o of_o you_o yea_o &_o after_o their_o subscription_n do_v out_o face_v she_o with_o the_o contradictory_n &_o carry_v it_o away_o when_o they_o have_v do_v no_o man_n say_v black_a be_v their_o eye_n 2._o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o unstable_a &_o unwise_o will_v be_v real_o hinder_v such_o a_o man_n will_v say_v unto_o our_o church_n if_o you_o teach_v i_o the_o way_n to_o life_n doubtless_o you_o will_v agree_v in_o it_o or_o suppress_v the_o gainsayer_n see_v therefore_o you_o do_v neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o the_o way_n to_o life_n be_v not_o with_o you_o &_o consequent_o it_o be_v not_o where_o for_o in_o your_o judgement_n the_o romish_a church_n have_v it_o not_o or_o at_o least_o man_n of_o good_a part_n may_v say_v if_o you_o agree_v not_o upon_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n then_o it_o be_v hopeless_a for_o we_o to_o find_v it_o because_o with_o you_o be_v the_o age_a in_o year_n great_a in_o experience_n abundant_a in_o learning_n considerate_a in_o resolve_v &_o in_o the_o office_n of_o govern_v if_o our_o hope_n to_o find_v heaven_n be_v vain_a &_o idle_a why_o shall_v we_o bestow_v our_o pain_n that_o way_n who_o will_v labour_v without_o profit_n who_o will_v lay_v out_o his_o silver_n to_o fill_v his_o belly_n with_o the_o east_n wind_n sure_o no_o man_n wherefore_o here_o be_v our_o rest_n see_v there_o be_v no_o profit_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n we_o will_v determine_v with_o ourselves_o &_o say_v we_o care_v not_o for_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o most_o high_a let_v we_o cast_v his_o law_n behind_o our_o back_n let_v we_o eat_v and_o drink_v for_o to_o morrow_n we_o shall_v die_v 3._o the_o glory_n of_o our_o church_n at_o least_o be_v abate_v nay_o i_o may_v true_o say_v her_o beauty_n be_v stain_v with_o a_o eyesore_n too_o ugly_a to_o be_v

thing_n make_v a_o nation_n or_o a_o few_o number_n to_o be_v christ_n church_n specifical_o and_o formal_o by_o reason_n whereof_o when_o we_o deny_v the_o romish_a church_n to_o have_v the_o
