but_o it_o be_v pretty_a to_o hear_v your_o churchman_n talk_v of_o the_o novelty_n of_o our_o religion_n when_o it_o be_v evident_a to_o all_o the_o understand_a world_n that_o our_o first_o reformer_n begin_v no_o new_a religion_n but_o desire_v only_o to_o keep_v to_o the_o old_a all_o their_o endeavour_n be_v to_o keep_v to_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o bible_n and_o to_o cut_v off_o all_o superfluity_n and_o thing_n prejudicial_a to_o salvation_n and_o be_v there_o any_o hurt_n in_o that_o they_o see_v that_o many_o thing_n then_o in_o use_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v diametral_o opposite_a to_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o primitive_a chucrh_n and_o they_o just_o think_v it_o their_o duty_n to_o reduce_v the_o church_n to_o the_o ancient_a pattern_n the_o proud_a clergy_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n will_v not_o yield_v to_o it_o but_o will_v have_v all_o their_o new_a fangle_n and_o all_o their_o addition_n to_o the_o ancient_a symbol_n receive_v as_o article_n of_o faith_n though_o all_o perish_a and_o the_o coat_n of_o christ_n be_v rend_v into_o a_o thousand_o piece_n the_o more_o humble_a and_o more_o moderate_a of_o the_o clergy_n see_v the_o pride_n and_o insolence_n of_o the_o other_o and_o tremble_v and_o thus_o we_o and_o they_o part_v we_o keep_v to_o the_o old_a religion_n and_o your_o man_n choose_v the_o new_a and_o much_o good_a it_o may_v do_v you_o with_o it_o and_o pray_v judge_n by_o this_o which_o be_v the_o schismatic_a church_n we_o or_o they_o we_o that_o will_v have_v heal_v israel_n or_o they_o that_o will_v not_o be_v heal_v so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o our_o religion_n that_o begin_v so_o late_o as_o 150_o year_n ago_o about_o luther_n time_n but_o it_o be_v you_o that_o commence_v

such_o we_o can_v but_o entertain_v a_o very_a favourable_a opinion_n and_o indeed_o i_o can_v name_v you_o some_o very_a famous_a man_n both_o in_o france_n and_o italy_n who_o though_o they_o have_v

for_o fear_v of_o danger_n yet_o in_o their_o heart_n they_o have_v abhor_v they_o and_o declare_v so_o much_o to_o their_o friend_n and_o intimate_a acquaintance_n and_o though_o their_o seem_a communion_n with_o a_o church_n so_o erroneous_a can_v be_v total_o excuse_v because_o it_o look_v like_o a_o tacit_n approbation_n of_o her_o error_n yet_o since_o we_o read_v of_o joseph_n that_o he_o be_v a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n secret_o and_o notwithstanding_o his_o not_o confess_v christ_n public_o accept_v of_o god_n we_o hope_v such_o man_n continue_v in_o the_o external_a communion_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v not_o a_o wilful_a error_n but_o rather_o a_o pardonable_a infirmity_n a_o timorousness_n which_o have_v nothing_o of_o malice_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o will_v not_o hinder_v they_o from_o salvation_n we_o know_v not_o what_o mercy_n god_n may_v show_v to_o many_o poor_a people_n in_o that_o church_n who_o be_v invincible_o ignorant_a and_o never_o see_v a_o bible_n from_o whence_o they_o may_v rectify_v their_o mistake_n and_o do_v live_v honest_o in_o this_o present_a world_n but_o we_o must_v withal_o confess_v that_o the_o

and_o have_v taste_v the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n and_o can_v but_o see_v our_o agreement_n with_o the_o gospel_n and_o after_o all_o this_o embrace_v the_o error_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n whether_o these_o will_v be_v excesable_a at_o the_o last_o day_n we_o just_o doubt_v of_o to_o live_v in_o great_a error_n be_v to_o live_v in_o sin_n but_o where_o that_o live_n in_o error_n be_v

character_n of_o christ_n friend_n to_o do_v whatsoever_o he_o command_v we_o than_o the_o inference_n be_v very_o easy_a that_o those_o can_v be_v christ_n friend_n nor_o reign_v with_o he_o in_o

infer_v a_o corporal_a manducation_n of_o christ_n real_a body_n and_o blood_n if_o they_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o eucharist_n it_o will_v necessary_o follow_v that_o christ_n oblige_v the_o jew_n
