of_o life_n the_o integrity_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o not_o to_o suffer_v any_o part_n thereof_o to_o perish_v or_o corrupt_v the_o three_o be_v to_o endeavour_n by_o the_o same_o mean_n to_o preserve_v the_o liberty_n and_o immunity_n of_o the_o church_n 8_o by_o the_o first_o way_n they_o entitle_v s._n john_n baptist_n because_o he_o die_v for_o reprehend_v a_o fault_n against_o a_o moral_a truth_n and_o that_o truth_n be_v resist_v the_o author_n of_o truth_n be_v despise_v and_o therefore_o all_o truth_n be_v not_o matter_n convenient_a for_o the_o exercise_n of_o this_o virtue_n as_o the_o conclusion_n of_o art_n and_o science_n though_o perfect_o and_o demonstrative_o true_a be_v not_o but_o it_o must_v be_v such_o a_o truth_n as_o be_v conversant_a about_o

of_o martyrdom_n seldom_o fall_v out_o in_o christian_a country_n because_o in_o christ_n the_o great_a mirror_n of_o all_o these_o truth_n we_o see_v they_o distinct_o and_o evident_o but_o

the_o second_o claim_n which_o be_v the_o integrity_n of_o catholic_a religion_n the_o professor_n of_o any_o christian_a church_n will_v make_v a_o specious_a and_o apparent_a title_n if_o they_o
