A10177	A briefe suruay and censure of Mr Cozens his couzening deuotions Prouing both the forme and matter of Mr Cozens his booke of priuate deuotions, or the houres of prayer, lately published, to be meerely popish: to differ from the priuate prayers authorized by Queene Elizabeth 1560. to be transcribed out of popish authors, with which they are here paralelled: and to be scandalous and preiudiciall to our Church, and aduantagious onely to the Church of Rome.

here_o recite_v but_o only_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o our_o author_n affirm_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v the_o true_a and_o ancient_a mother_n

the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o be_v evermore_o guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o not_o the_o devotion_n of_o private_a ghost_n and_o spirit_n as_o he_o

his_o popery_n and_o to_o harbour_v it_o under_o her_o protection_n this_o be_v most_o clear_a and_o evident_a first_o from_o the_o title_n second_o from_o the_o preface_n of_o the_o book_n for_o

own_o church_n in_o which_o he_o affirm_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o these_o private_a devotion_n and_o hour_n of_o prayer_n be_v no_o new_a devotion_n of_o his_o own_o compose_n but_o only_o a_o reviuall_n or_o new_a impression_n of_o those_o private_a prayer_n and_o devotion_n as_o be_v former_o publish_v by_o queen_n elizabeth_n in_o the_o year_n 1560._o and_o so_o do_v most_o
