of_o the_o reformation_n in_o the_o latter_a end_n thereof_o and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o seven_o he_o show_v that_o according_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o reformation_n a_o man_n may_v believe_v all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o popery_n that_o several_a of_o the_o reformer_n have_v believe_v several_a of_o they_o and_o that_o the_o only_a
difference_n betwixt_o the_o papist_n and_o the_o reformer_n in_o this_o case_n be_v that_o the_o former_a believe_v their_o doctrine_n to_o be_v true_a upon_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n the_o latter_a because_o they_o judge_v they_o to_o be_v agreeable_a to_o scripture_n he_o aver_v in_o his_o conclusion_n that_o according_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o reformation_n no_o doctrine_n or_o tenet_n whatsoever_o can_v be_v wicked_a or_o blasphemous_a but_o that_o all_o be_v sacred_a and_o solid_a judgement_n and_o reflect_v very_o sharp_o upon_o dr._n still_o for_o make_v

will_v be_v rule_v by_o he_o he_o can_v teach_v he_o how_o to_o do_v it_o without_o ever_o turn_v from_o be_v a_o christian_n but_o since_o you_o have_v give_v a_o brief_a account_n of_o this_o book_n pray_v let_v we_o reckon_v what_o the_o whole_a thereof_o amount_v to_o as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v perceive_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o be_v no_o more_o than_o this_o that_o several_a of_o the_o reformer_n have_v change_v from_o one_o thing_n to_o another_o and_o that_o some_o of_o they_o have_v hold_v most_o gross_a and_o scandalous_a tenet_n and_o therefore_o since_o every_o man_n be_v

good_a sir_n in_o your_o inference_n because_o man_n be_v of_o different_a opinion_n and_o will_v be_v so_o as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n endure_v do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o every_o one_o

to_o change_v their_o opinion_n as_o oft_o as_o they_o in_o their_o own_o judgement_n shall_v think_v it_o reasonable_a so_o to_o do_v and_o every_o man_n believe_v all_o the_o while_o his_o opinion_n

of_o believe_v what_o every_o man_n please_v they_o may_v not_o only_o allow_v a_o liberty_n but_o may_v assert_v it_o to_o be_v necessary_a that_o every_o one_o shall_v follow_v his_o own_o
