church_n representative_a or_o be_v so_o acknowledge_v by_o the_o whole_a body_n diffusive_a which_o be_v still_o equivalent_a to_o it_o and_o the_o currant_n pass_v of_o the_o book_n and_o general_a reception_n of_o it_o among_o catholic_n argue_v strong_o enough_o that_o it_o be_v exact_a as_o to_o all_o this_o but_o because_o i_o design_v that_o book_n for_o the_o public_a i_o do_v not_o content_v myself_o with_o the_o bare_a state_v such_o our_o avow_v doctrine_n or_o article_n of_o faith_n but_o i_o likewise_o add_v short_a exposition_n in_o relation_n to_o some_o protestant_a objection_n general_o make_v to_o each_o article_n of_o how_o can_v this_o be_v wherefore_o be_v this_o etc._n etc._n and_o the_o exposition_n i_o own_o to_o be_v no_o article_n of_o faith_n but_o only_o some_o receive_a notion_n relate_v to_o the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n as_o they_o be_v oppose_v by_o protestant_n or_o search_v into_o by_o the_o curious_a and_o these_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v my_o private_a sentiment_n that_o the_o reader_n may_v find_v the_o same_o in_o our_o ordinary_a scripture-catechisms_a of_o which_o there_o have_v be_v print_v in_o this_o nation_n in_o a_o few_o year_n not_o less_o than_o twenty_o thousand_o and_o i_o hope_v so_o general_a a_o reception_n be_v sufficient_a to_o justify_v they_o against_o all_o caviller_n and_o to_o convince_v any_o consider_a man_n that_o to_o assent_v to_o the_o catholic_a faith_n as_o so_o expound_v which_o be_v so_o contrary_a to_o what_o protestant_n say_v or_o to_o the_o pulpit-popery_n be_v sufficient_a for_o any_o member_n of_o our_o church_n and_o if_o there_o be_v other_o way_n of_o expound_v the_o same_o article_n there_o be_v no_o inconvenience_n in_o this_o since_o where_o the_o faith_n be_v the_o same_o there_o may_v be_v variety_n of_o opinion_n as_o to_o the_o how_o be_v for_o the_o whys_n and_o this_o i_o hope_v the_o answerer_n will_v understand_v if_o he_o please_v but_o to_o

he_o may_v have_v as_o much_o reason_n to_o call_v in_o question_n the_o title_n of_o that_o book_n as_o that_o of_o the_o bishop_n and_o that_o according_a to_o his_o way_n i_o think_v it_o ought_v to_o bear_v thus_o a_o exposition_n of_o some_o body_n private_a sentiment_n concern_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o leave_v he_o to_o consider_v this_o a_o while_n but_o i_o

as_o to_o dig_v or_o make_v almanac_n rather_o than_o write_v controversy_n for_o this_o gentleman_n can_v tell_v he_o that_o to_o impose_v upon_o man_n in_o book_n of_o divinity_n and_o to_o take_v
