lack_v the_o sun_n and_o moon_n in_o the_o world_n yet_o notwithstanding_o christian_n may_v not_o so_o agree_v as_o to_o betray_v the_o truth_n why_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n say_v some_o i_o ask_v then_o what_o truth_n i_o do_v not_o say_v as_o pilate_n do_v to_o christ_n john_n 18._o 38._o what_o be_v truth_n but_o what_o truth_n for_o i_o hope_v they_o be_v not_o so_o foolish_a to_o understand_v the_o wise_a man_n sirac_n 4._o 28._o for_o the_o truth_n contend_v unto_o death_n of_o every_o truth_n if_o they_o can_v answer_n i_o and_o answer_v true_o that_o it_o be_v for_o that_o truth_n which_o be_v say_v john_n 8._o 32._o to_o make_v we_o free_a that_o be_v for_o the_o gospel_n and_o for_o christ_n sure_o as_o well_o as_o i_o love_v peace_n i_o will_v say_v contend_v and_o strive_v still_o and_o except_o there_o may_v be_v verity_n let_v there_o be_v no_o unity_n for_o we_o have_v a_o just_a cause_n and_o quarrel_n against_o all_o the_o enemy_n of_o that_o truth_n as_o be_v the_o two_o sect_n above_o name_v and_o he_o that_o have_v have_v zeal_n and_o stomach_n against_o they_o &_o now_o have_v none_o be_v either_o demas_n or_o judas_n choose_v he_o white_a but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n to_o pretend_v such_o a_o cause_n &_o not_o to_o prove_v it_o or_o if_o there_o be_v any_o other_o good_a cause_n as_o the_o redress_n of_o some_o abuse_n which_o no_o man_n in_o his_o wit_n will_v deny_v to_o be_v a_o good_a cause_n yet_o to_o follow_v it_o out_o of_o time_n and_o place_n by_o importunity_n and_o unlawful_o by_o false_a or_o foolish_a libel_n which_o in_o deed_n leave_v the_o cause_n and_o fly_v to_o the_o person_n and_o tend_v to_o nothing_o but_o to_o provoke_v i_o suppose_v that_o no_o wise_a man_n can_v allow_v the_o course_n sure_o i_o be_o the_o evil_a success_n thereof_o do_v disallow_v it_o and_o if_o his_o name_n shall_v answer_v his_o do_v herein_o as_o it_o seem_v he_o will_v have_v it_o by_o the_o title_n and_o purpose_n of_o his_o book_n sure_o he_o shall_v be_v call_v for_o marre_n prelate_n marre_n preacher_n for_o there_o be_v few_o of_o these_o and_o no_o less_o of_o those_o if_o not_o more_o since_o he_o practise_v so_o to_o mar_v they_o i_o judge_v not_o thing_n only_o by_o the_o issue_n and_o event_n but_o i_o wish_v that_o he_o have_v be_v more_o sober_a or_o more_o silent_a wherefore_o i_o exhort_v both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o for_o what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v with_o side_n that_o they_o play_v not_o in_o the_o church_n as_o man_n do_v that_o be_v fall_v out_o in_o the_o common_a wealth_n where_o both_o will_v be_v talk_v of_o right_n but_o neither_o will_v cease_v from_o do_v of_o wrong_n so_o let_v none_o pretend_v conscience_n when_o it_o be_v covetousness_n nor_o zeal_n when_o it_o be_v malice_n and_o so_o by_o bitter_a strife_n &_o stomach_n seek_v one_o to_o denowre_v another_o make_v the_o babylonian_a noise_n for_o the_o spoil_n of_o that_o temple_n which_o at_o his_o first_o set_v up_o and_o long_o after_o have_v no_o such_o noise_n in_o it_o there_o be_v not_o hear_v the_o noise_n of_o a_o hammer_n at_o the_o set_n up_o of_o the_o temple_n 1._o reg._n 6._o 7._o but_o the_o babylonians_n make_v the_o noise_n in_o the_o pull_n of_o it_o down_o 2._o chron._n 36._o 19_o wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o speak_v as_o the_o priest_n do_v in_o the_o 11._o of_o john_n 48._o if_o we_o let_v christ_n thus_o alone_o all_o man_n will_v believe_v in_o he_o and_o the_o roman_n will_v come_v and_o take_v away_o our_o place_n and_o the_o nation_n but_o rather_o let_v we_o say_v and_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o we_o let_v he_o not_o alone_o and_o believe_v not_o better_o in_o he_o but_o stand_v devide_v both_o his_o coat_n and_o body_n by_o unreconcilable_a hatred_n among_o ourselves_o he_o will_v send_v they_o that_o will_v come_v and_o take_v all_o and_o the_o roman_n be_v very_o ready_a to_o be_v send_v likewise_o they_o be_v to_o be_v admonish_v that_o sill_z the_o pulpit_n too_o full_o with_o these_o controversy_n i_o do_v not_o mean_v our_o lunatic_n libeler_n which_o cast_v phrase_n on_o both_o side_n as_o mad_a man_n do_v hurl_v stone_n but_o i_o mean_v man_n of_o my_o own_o profession_n and_o mind_n that_o they_o consider_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v have_v too_o long_o a_o pause_v and_o have_v get_v ground_n apace_o since_o we_o have_v spend_v our_o breath_n about_o these_o thing_n for_o how_o so_o ever_o martin_n fly_v he_o lie_v in_o the_o wind_n to_o make_v martyr_n of_o we_o and_o life_n as_o the_o salamander_n do_v the_o better_a for_o the_o fire_n wherefore_o the_o prophet_n be_v to_o be_v reclaim_v by_o a_o more_o certain_a sound_n of_o the_o trump_n to_o oppose_v themselves_o to_o anhchrist_n and_o not_o to_o
