before_o he_o have_v miserable_o fail_v of_o carry_v on_o the_o succession_n of_o true_a doctrine_n now_o i_o will_v be_v content_a in_o this_o matter_n to_o make_v you_o the_o judge_n that_o if_o they_o be_v not_o lawful_a pastor_n who_o want_v succession_n of_o doctrine_n whether_o the_o unlawful_a one_o be_v those_o who_o break_v the_o succession_n of_o it_o at_o first_o or_o those_o that_o restore_v it_o afterward_o and_o because_o i_o will_v not_o tie_v you_o too_o severe_o to_o your_o own_o word_n i_o will_v abate_v the_o word_n lawful_a and_o suffer_v you_o to_o put_v good_a pastor_n instead_o of_o it_o for_o i_o think_v that_o order_n and_o regularity_n of_o episcopal_a succession_n will_v suffice_v to_o make_v they_o lawful_a bishop_n who_o for_o corrupt_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n shall_v not_o be_v allow_v to_o be_v good_a one_o i_o have_v one_o word_n more_o to_o say_v and_o then_o you_o shall_v speak_v you_o have_v hear_v i_o perceive_v from_o some_o of_o your_o friend_n that_o the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n for_o nine_o age_n before_o cranmer_n be_v roman_a chtholicks_n now_o their_o meaning_n be_v that_o all_o the_o archbishop_n of_o

though_o you_o know_v not_o these_o matter_n and_o it_o may_v be_v not_o they_o neither_o yet_o i_o can_v assure_v you_o that_o very_o many_o of_o your_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n be_v not_o only_o

the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n become_v your_o roman_a catholic_n they_o themselves_o interrupt_v the_o succession_n of_o primitive_a and_o ancient_a doctrine_n take_v good_a notice_n of_o the_o

the_o corrupt_a doctrine_n of_o your_o church_n be_v of_o a_o much_o late_a date_n than_o for_o you_o to_o talk_v as_o you_o do_v of_o nine_o age_n before_o cranmer_n sect._n 16_o quer._n whether_o that_o be_v a_o true_a church_n that_o want_v lawful_a pastor_n and_o whether_o pastor_n not_o lawful_a and_o true_a can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v true_a sacrament_n if_o not_o then_o be_v it_o not_o better_a to_o communicate_v under_o one_o kind_a with_o catholic_n than_o under_o no_o kind_a with_o reformer_n answ_n but_o if_o we_o have_v lawful_a and_o true_a pastor_n as_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o you_o have_v hitherto_o say_v nay_o that_o you_o or_o any_o of_o your_o party_n can_v say_v we_o be_v sure_a that_o we_o have_v then_o this_o query_n come_v in_o too_o soon_o and_o therefore_o at_o present_a the_o question_n stand_v thus_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o better_a to_o communicate_v under_o both_o kind_n with_o the_o real_a catholic_n than_o under_o one_o kind_a only_o with_o the_o pretend_a one_o but_o if_o you_o think_v fit_a to_o renew_v the_o query_n i_o will_v advise_v you_o to_o mend_v it_o a_o little_a against_o the_o next_o time_n and_o not_o by_o any_o mean_n to_o question_v the_o validity_n of_o our_o sacrament_n so_o crude_o as_o you_o do_v for_o you_o will_v find_v that_o your_o own_o church_n do_v not_o presume_v to_o baptise_v those_o over_o again_o which_o go_v from_o we_o to_o you_o and_o it_o be_v not_o amiss_o if_o you_o will_v tell_v we_o more_o distinct_o what_o you_o mean_v by_o lawful_a pastor_n whether_o you_o oppose_v they_o only_o to_o such_o of_o the_o validity_n of_o who_o order_n we_o have_v no_o good_a assurance_n or_o who_o also_o come_v into_o their_o cure_n by_o simony_n or_o who_o be_v schismatical_a pastor_n and_o the_o like_a for_o these_o can_v hardly_o be_v say_v to_o be_v lawful_a pastor_n make_v your_o query_n plain_a and_o i_o have_v a_o plain_a answer_n for_o you_o which_o perhaps_o you_o little_o think_v of_o

oppose_v to_o the_o error_n and_o innovation_n which_o your_o church_n hold_v for_o article_n of_o faith._n now_o as_o to_o these_o doctrine_n we_o do_v not_o esteem_v they_o in_o the_o same_o rank_n with_o the_o article_n of_o faith_n because_o they_o be_v not_o at_o all_o time_n necessary_a to_o be_v propound_v to_o all_o in_o order_n to_o their_o salvation_n but_o they_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v teach_v the_o faithful_a in_o these_o part_n of_o christendom_n to_o secure_v they_o from_o the_o contagion_n of_o those_o error_n you_o have_v bring_v into_o the_o church_n for_o instance_n if_o you_o have_v not_o set_v up_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o pray_v to_o the_o saint_n there_o have_v be_v no_o need_n at_o all_o of_o a_o determination_n of_o this_o church_n against_o it_o nor_o have_v it_o be_v necessary_a to_o instruct_v our_o people_n that_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o to_o be_v pray_v unto_o have_v not_o your_o church_n invent_v the_o article_n of_o transubstantiation_n we_o have_v not_o oppose_v a_o contrary_a article_n to_o it_o now_o as_o to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o these_o and_o the_o like_a article_n of_o our_o church_n we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o necessary_a but_o only_o profitable_a but_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o we_o to_o teach_v it_o because_o as_o you_o have_v order_v matter_n to_o be_v ignorant_a thereof_o be_v very_o dangerous_a the_o contrary_a error_n be_v damnable_a for_o you_o be_v strange_o mistake_v if_o you_o think_v that_o no_o error_n be_v damnable_a but_o the_o direct_a denial_n of_o some_o truth_n which_o be_v always_o necessary_a to_o be_v propound_v to_o all_o that_o be_v of_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n strict_o and_o proper_o so_o call_v and_o i_o can_v assure_v you_o that_o the_o best_a divine_n of_o your_o own_o church_n be_v of_o another_o mind_n there_o be_v therefore_o no_o room_n leave_v for_o your_o second_o supposition_n that_o if_o they_o be_v article_n of_o faith_n then_o have_v the_o church_n of_o england_n invent_v new_a article_n of_o faith_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o wonder_v not_o a_o little_a at_o the_o boldness_n of_o your_o inference_n while_o with_o no_o better_a colour_n for_o it_o you_o will_v draw_v we_o in_o to_o be_v suspect_v of_o that_o which_o yourselves_o be_v so_o notorious_o guilty_a of_o i._n e._n of_o make_v new_a article_n of_o faith._n for_o have_v not_o you_o do_v so_o we_o shall_v have_v have_v no_o occasion_n to_o oppose_v your_o invention_n so_o vigorous_o as_o we_o have_v do_v nor_o you_o any_o colour_n to_o insinuate_v as_o if_o we_o have_v add_v to_o the_o creed_n i_o will_v fain_o know_v of_o you_o that_o if_o false_a doctrine_n which_o do_v not_o direct_o contradict_v the_o article_n of_o the_o creed_n shall_v be_v thrust_v into_o the_o creed_n by_o one_o part_n of_o the_o church_n whether_o another_o shall_v be_v afraid_a to_o contradict_v they_o for_o fear_n of_o be_v accuse_v of_o add_v the_o contrary_a proposition_n to_o the_o creed_n too_o though_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o do_v it_o not_o but_o only_o take_v care_n to_o keep_v the_o old_a faith_n pure_a from_o new_a doctrine_n and_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o faithful_a uncorrupted_a with_o false_a doctrine_n if_o you_o shall_v think_v fit_a to_o say_v so_o i_o must_v then_o ask_v you_o whether_o ten_o thousand_o foolish_a and_o false_a nay_o and_o dangerous_a opinion_n may_v not_o by_o some_o or_o other_o be_v tack_v to_o the_o ancient_a creed_n and_o yet_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o christian_a world_n shall_v not_o dare_v to_o determine_v precise_o against_o they_o and_o yet_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o if_o you_o have_v not_o capacity_n enough_o to_o distinguish_v between_o reject_v error_n on_o the_o
