have_v seek_v to_o diminish_v it_o for_o at_o last_o that_o loss_n must_v needs_o before_o god_n be_v glorious_a to_o i_o also_o wherefore_o i_o do_v first_o confess_v and_o true_o and_o sincere_o out_o of_o my_o own_o conscience_n do_v give_v testimony_n that_o i_o do_v not_o write_v the_o intent_n of_o my_o depart_n from_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o the_o rock_n and_o the_o sermon_n out_o of_o sincerity_n of_o heart_n or_o out_o of_o a_o good_a conscience_n or_o faith_n not_o feign_v but_o that_o i_o may_v cover_v with_o some_o excuse_n my_o shameful_a departure_n and_o be_v more_o grateful_a and_o acceptable_a to_o heretic_n to_o who_o wretch_n that_o i_o be_v i_o run_v in_o haste_n and_o with_o who_o i_o familiar_o converse_v the_o ten_o year_n labour_n which_o in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o intent_n of_o my_o depart_n i_o boast_v of_o be_v not_o spend_v in_o mature_a deliberation_n grave_a and_o advise_v counsel_n or_o other_o discreet_a discussion_n of_o the_o truth_n but_o contrariwise_o misspend_v in_o vain_a unprofitable_a and_o malicious_a purpose_n and_o preparation_n how_o i_o may_v bold_o vent_v and_o put_v in_o practice_v my_o heretical_a lie_n and_o invention_n thereby_o to_o satisfy_v my_o malicious_a anger_n insomuch_o as_o my_o vocation_n to_o do_v it_o be_v not_o a_o divine_a vocation_n but_o a_o devilish_a suggestion_n stir_v up_o in_o i_o not_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o by_o a_o wicked_a spirit_n a_o spirit_n of_o giddiness_n worse_o than_o be_v that_o of_o saules_n and_o i_o do_v not_o doubt_v to_o attribute_v my_o return_n back_o again_o to_o a_o true_a divine_a vocation_n the_o holy_a ghost_n call_v i_o to_o return_v unto_o my_o mother_n the_o catholic_a roman_a church_n 4_o i_o say_v that_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o court_n of_o rome_n do_v cause_v i_o always_o to_o abhor_v it_o this_o i_o acknowledge_v to_o have_v be_v wicked_o speak_v for_o neither_o then_o nor_o yet_o be_v want_v in_o rome_n very_o many_o notable_a example_n of_o piety_n and_o all_o christian_a virtue_n which_o may_v both_o delight_n and_o incite_v religious_a mind_n to_o further_a devotion_n i_o say_v that_o by_o forbid_v the_o read_n of_o book_n write_v against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o rome_n there_o arise_v some_o evil_a suspicion_n which_o give_v credit_n to_o the_o write_n of_o heretic_n and_o make_v man_n believe_v that_o there_o be_v some_o thing_n in_o they_o secret_o which_o catholic_n be_v not_o able_a to_o answer_v this_o i_o confess_v to_o have_v be_v injurious_o speak_v of_o i_o against_o the_o catholic_a faith_n who_o find_v in_o the_o book_n of_o heretic_n false_a heretical_a scandalous_a and_o pestiferous_a doctrine_n from_o the_o read_n whereof_o the_o faithful_a be_v to_o be_v keep_v lest_o it_o infect_v their_o soul_n neither_o be_v it_o a_o thing_n befit_v private_a man_n to_o read_v such_o book_n but_o the_o judgement_n in_o matter_n of_o such_o always_o do_v and_o now_o do_v belong_v unto_o the_o shepherd_n who_o find_v venomous_a pasture_n shall_v remove_v their_o sheep_n as_o far_o from_o they_o as_o they_o can_v moreover_o the_o argument_n of_o heretic_n be_v deceitful_a sophistical_a and_o easy_a to_o be_v answer_v i_o say_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o those_o who_o oppose_v themselves_o against_o the_o roman_a church_n do_v either_o nothing_o or_o little_o differ_v from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o ancient_a church_n and_o this_o be_v false_a for_o the_o opinion_n wherein_o they_o differ_v from_o catholic_n be_v whole_o differ_v from_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o ancient_a church_n and_o nothing_o can_v more_o connince_v they_o than_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o ancient_a church_n from_o which_o they_o by_o their_o novelty_n have_v so_o far_o depart_v that_o worthy_o for_o this_o respect_n they_o be_v condemn_v for_o heretic_n by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n it_o be_v therefore_o detestable_a and_o i_o detest_v that_o which_o i_o say_v that_o their_o doctrine_n be_v therefore_o condemn_v only_o by_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n because_o these_o thing_n they_o say_v be_v repugnant_a unto_o the_o sensuality_n and_o corrupt_a manner_n of_o the_o court_n of_o rome_n i_o say_v also_o that_o at_o rome_n they_o coin_a new_a article_n of_o faith_n by_o main_a force_n and_o this_o i_o say_v true_o against_o my_o conscience_n for_o i_o never_o observe_v it_o at_o any_o time_n and_o i_o certain_o know_v that_o it_o can_v be_v observe_v by_o any_o man_n for_o the_o declaration_n and_o explication_n make_v by_o holy_a church_n touch_v article_n and_o mystery_n of_o faith_n collect_v out_o of_o divine_a scripture_n and_o tradition_n of_o the_o father_n and_o out_o of_o the_o very_a rule_n of_o faith_n can_v any_o way_n be_v term_v new_a coin_v of_o article_n moreover_o i_o endeavour_v to_o take_v away_o the_o title_n of_o catholic_a and_o untuersall_a from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o which_o i_o err_v very_o much_o for_o by_o the_o catholic_a roman_a church_n be_v understand_v not_o only_o that_o special_a and_o particular_a church_n which_o be_v at_o rome_n but_o also_o the_o whole_a multitude_n and_o company_n of_o all_o the_o church_n adhere_v unto_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o faith_n and_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o pope_n in_o what_o place_n soever_o they_o be_v yea_o in_o the_o utmost_a confine_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o it_o be_v most_o true_a and_o be_v approve_v by_o i_o both_o by_o word_n of_o mouth_n as_o england_n itself_o may_v witness_v and_o by_o writing_n in_o my_o treatise_n of_o the_o ecclesiastical_a commonwealth_n in_o that_o part_n which_o i_o hear_v be_v late_o set_v forth_o in_o germany_n that_o no_o church_n be_v catholic_a but_o the_o roman_a and_o such_o as_o be_v unite_v unto_o she_o for_o all_o other_o congregation_n of_o christian_n be_v stain_v with_o heresy_n and_o divide_v and_o separate_v by_o schism_n from_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v and_o be_v exclude_v from_o the_o catholic_a universal_a and_o true_a church_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v blind_v together_o with_o their_o blind_a guide_n do_v rush_v and_o run_v headlong_o into_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n of_o perdition_n which_o i_o wicked_o affirm_v of_o the_o roman_n to_o their_o great_a wrong_n for_o from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n at_o all_o time_n a_o most_o glorious_a light_n of_o pure_a and_o incorrupted_a faith_n come_v forth_o and_o do_v at_o this_o present_n lighten_v all_o other_o church_n of_o christ_n whatsoever_o but_o i_o remember_v that_o in_o the_o preface_n of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o christian_a commonwealth_n among_o other_o thing_n i_o use_v some_o word_n in_o which_o i_o seem_v to_o put_v and_o place_n in_o the_o catholic_a church_n all_o they_o who_o have_v receive_v baptism_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o bless_a trinity_n and_o in_o so_o say_v althought_v the_o word_n sound_v evil_a and_o make_v the_o heretical_a church_n true_a and_o sound_a member_n of_o the_o true_a catholic_a church_n which_o be_v most_o false_a and_o heretical_a yet_o my_o meaning_n be_v utter_o to_o exclude_v the_o arrian_n nestorian_a and_o eutichian_a heresy_n and_o all_o heretical_a church_n condemn_v in_o former_a time_n and_o to_o retain_v they_o only_o that_o be_v orthodoxal_a but_o herein_o i_o be_v deceive_v in_o that_o i_o esteem_v that_o there_o be_v many_o more_o orthodoxal_a church_n than_o be_v for_o i_o erroneous_o believe_v that_o many_o church_n which_o be_v infect_v with_o the_o heresy_n of_o these_o late_a time_n and_o divide_v by_o schism_n do_v appertain_v unto_o the_o catholic_a church_n which_o although_o it_o be_v call_v catholic_a for_o that_o it_o be_v universal_a yet_o universality_n do_v not_o comprehend_v any_o but_o those_o that_o be_v orthodoxal_a and_o true_a believe_v and_o dilate_a over_o all_o the_o world_n and_o continue_v in_o the_o catholic_a unity_n with_o the_o roman_a for_o the_o universality_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n consist_v not_o only_o in_o the_o perpetual_a and_o never_o interrupt_v or_o to_o be_v interrupt_v continuance_n and_o firmness_n of_o faith_n but_o be_v also_o universal_a because_o her_o identicall_a or_o self_n same_o faith_n and_o sovereign_a government_n have_v be_v dilate_v and_o spread_v over_o all_o place_n and_o into_o nation_n after_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n for_o which_o respect_n even_o in_o these_o late_a time_n and_o age_n it_o be_v to_o be_v call_v catholic_a no_o less_o than_o it_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o
