observation_n very_o considerable_a concern_v the_o society_n of_o jesus_n and_o the_o name_n of_o jesuit_n 1._o the_o society_n of_o the_o jesuit_n have_v separate_v christ_n else_o why_o have_v

jesuit_n a_o new_a name_n of_o their_o own_o frame_n then_o to_o be_v call_v christian_n 3._o as_o though_o there_o be_v some_o society_n of_o jesus_n priate_v to_o one_o kind_n of_o man_n separate_v

the_o jesuit_n you_o reform_v set_v upon_o our_o society_n and_o say_v we_o have_v divide_v christ_n because_o certain_a man_n have_v choose_v unto_o they_o this_o name_n above_o all_o other_o to_o

have_v not_o the_o english_a christ_n college_n in_o oxford_n answer_v of_o the_o reform_a to_o this_o exception_n 1._o we_o will_v not_o strive_v much_o with_o you_o jesuit_n about_o your_o society_n of_o which_o we_o reform_v make_v very_o small_a account_n 2._o if_o you_o have_v for_o some_o special_a consideration_n dedicate_v yourselves_o unto_o christ_n what_o be_v that_o consideration_n

you_o propagate_v the_o honour_n and_o magnify_v the_o name_n jesus_n if_o for_o this_o all_o christian_n ought_v not_o to_o labour_n at_o least_o bishop_n and_o special_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n

there_o be_v both_o christ_n and_o jesus_n college_n but_o they_o that_o live_v in_o those_o college_n be_v call_v only_a christian_n 8._o think_v you_o that_o because_o there_o be_v many_o college_n different_a in_o name_n there_o be_v many_o different_a order_n and_o profession_n of_o man_n 9_o in_o place_n distinction_n of_o name_n be_v necessary_a and_o without_o danger_n unless_o some_o schism_n may_v happen_v betwixt_o the_o wall_n 10._o have_v you_o jesuit_n no_n other_o thing_n to_o say_v for_o your_o sect_n and_o society_n concern_v the_o conversion_n of_o country_n make_v by_o papist_n what_o judgement_n be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o such_o conversion_n 1._o it_o may_v happen_v that_o a_o corrupt_a church_n which_o hold_v not_o the_o faith_n entire_o throughout_o but_o err_v in_o some_o parcel_n thereof_o may_v convert_v heathen_n 2._o such_o a_o conversion_n shall_v be_v mix_v in_o some_o thing_n it_o shall_v be_v to_o the_o true_a faith_n in_o other_o it_o shall_v be_v

be_v dispute_v without_o any_o hazard_n of_o faith_n answer_v to_o that_o by_o the_o reform_a 1._o be_v it_o grant_v they_o do_v agree_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n why_o then_o do_v they_o not_o

difference_n be_v very_o great_a not_o in_o the_o name_n only_o but_o in_o thing_n also_o 4._o as_o thus_o let_v the_o question_n be_v whether_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o image_n of_o
