be_v stop_v long_o before_o this_o sir_n answ_n 35_o what_o will_v you_o be_v at_o whither_o will_v you_o go_v you_o have_v yet_o gain_v no_o imprudence_n upon_o the_o unlearned_a either_o to_o embrace_v the_o roman_a or_o desert_n the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o therefore_o some_o obligation_n lie_v upon_o your_o roman_a doctor_n without_o rigour_n of_o dispute_n to_o use_v some_o

convince_v that_o the_o protestant_a religion_n be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o moral_o cortain_a but_o your_o own_o be_v and_o than_o you_o will_v prove_v that_o it_o be_v the_o sole_a true_a save_a

to_o follow_v logic_n and_o nature_n from_o thing_n know_v to_o thing_n unknown_a from_o thing_n imperfect_a to_o thing_n perfect_a but_o first_o of_o all_o the_o poor_a unlearned_a protestant_n

embrace_v though_o you_o say_v it_o be_v already_o do_v for_o it_o be_v already_o undo_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o inevitable_o clear_a that_o the_o roman_a only_o be_v that_o divine_a infallible_a one_o true_a faith_n wherein_o christian_n may_v be_v save_v for_o that_o faith_n only_o be_v not_o divine_a which_o be_v build_v upon_o tradition_n because_o tradition_n be_v but_o humane_a but_o the_o roman_a faith_n be_v build_v upon_o tradition_n therefore_o the_o roman_a faith_n only_o be_v not_o that_o divine_a faith_n wherein_o christian_n can_v be_v save_v that_o faith_n only_o be_v not_o infallible_a which_o be_v ground_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o man_n whether_o pope_n or_o council_n because_o the_o authority_n of_o man_n whether_o pope_n or_o council_n be_v fallible_a but_o such_o be_v the_o roman_a faith_n because_o virtual_o resolve_v into_o the_o pope_n who_o can_v err_v say_v some_o of_o the_o romanist_n and_o representative_o into_o a_o council_n which_o can_v err_v say_v other_o of_o the_o romanist_n but_o both_o one_o and_o the_o other_o erroneous_o therefore_o the_o roman_a faith_n only_o be_v not_o that_o infallible_a faith_n wherein_o christian_n may_v be_v save_v that_o faith_n only_o be_v not_o the_o one_o which_o have_v other_o article_n add_v to_o it_o than_o what_o the_o apostle_n faith_n the_o nicene_n faith_n the_o athanasian_n faith_n contain_v but_o such_o be_v the_o roman_a faith_n because_o the_o faith_n of_o rome_n in_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n have_v add_v the_o article_n of_o purgatory_n of_o the_o priest_n intention_n in_o baptism_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o the_o roman_a faith_n only_o be_v not_o the_o one_o faith_n wherein_o christian_n may_v be_v save_v that_o faith_n be_v not_o the_o true_a faith_n wherein_o the_o professor_n dare_v not_o as_o well_o die_v as_o live_v but_o such_o be_v the_o roman_a faith_n because_o in_o their_o life_n they_o rely_v upon_o and_o preach_v their_o own_o merit_n but_o at_o their_o death_n rely_v only_o upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o which_o divine_a infallible_a one_o true_a faith_n that_o you_o and_o
