A73011	Looke beyond Luther: or An ansvvere to that question, so often and so insultingly proposed by our aduersaries, asking vs; where this our religion was before Luthers time? VVhereto are added sound props to beare vp honest-hearted Protestants, that they fall not from their sauing-faith. By Richard Bernard, of Batcombe in Sommersetshire.

the_o people_n upon_o the_o king_n as_o a_o father_n to_o look_v to_o his_o child_n to_o call_v they_o to_o the_o faith_n and_o law_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o the_o holy_a church_n hereby_o

title_n that_o bishop_n twice_o name_v in_o that_o epistle_n thus_o we_o see_v out_o of_o this_o short_a epistle_n what_o we_o may_v think_v of_o the_o religion_n then_o at_o rome_n and_o how_o agree_v to_o we_o now_o and_o differ_v from_o they_o at_o this_o present_a the_o three_o conversion_n for_o which_o they_o magnify_v so_o much_o this_o austin_n but_o very_o false_o be_v in_o

differ_v from_o this_o present_a romish_a superstition_n be_v then_o teach_v in_o that_o church_n as_o may_v appear_v out_o of_o the_o write_n of_o gregory_n as_o he_o do_v then_o teach_v concern_v
