call_v upon_o by_o catholic_o to_o show_v on_o what_o authority_n they_o receive_v the_o holy_a scripture_n the_o papist_n say_v they_o question_v the_o authority_n of_o scripture_n again_o when_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o the_o scripture_n leave_v to_o the_o interpretation_n of_o each_o private_a person_n can_v decide_v no_o point_n of_o controversy_n since_o doubtless_o every_o one_o will_v

when_o this_o be_v urge_v they_o cry_v the_o scripture_n be_v undervalue_v by_o the_o papist_n and_o this_o make_v such_o deep_a impression_n on_o the_o unthinking_a multitude_n or_o shall_v i_o say_v strike_v such_o a_o damp_n on_o their_o spirit_n that_o many_o time_n it_o surpass_v the_o skill_n of_o the_o able_a and_o plain_a logician_n to_o undeceive_v they_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o because_o they_o can_v think_v rational_o enough_o to_o discern_v the_o fallacy_n but_o because_o they_o will_v not_o since_o there_o be_v no_o understanding_n among_o they_o so_o dull_a or_o

know_v several_a of_o they_o beyond-sea_n who_o among_o their_o other_o devotion_n read_v some_o part_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n every_o day_n to_o show_v their_o profound_a veneration_n for_o it_o be_v always_o wont_a to_o read_v it_o on_o their_o knee_n which_o whosoever_o observe_v and_o compare_v with_o that_o very_a indifferent_a behaviour_n wherewith_o it_o be_v ordinary_o handle_v here_o in_o england_n will_v not_o say_v that_o catholic_n have_v a_o less_o regard_n for_o the_o holy_a scripture_n than_o protestant_n and_o consequent_o they_o do_v as_o little_a question_n it_o be_v authority_n why_o then_o do_v the_o catholic_n urge_v the_o protestant_n to_o show_v on_o what_o authority_n or_o testimony_n they_o receive_v the_o bible_n since_o its_o authority_n be_v undoubted_a on_o both_o side_n it_o be_v because_o the_o catholic_n will_v take_v this_o occasion_n of_o show_v their_o adversary_n that_o of_o necessity_n a_o true_a and_o uncorrupted_a church_n must_v be_v allow_v to_o have_v be_v in_o the_o world_n when_o they_o begin_v their_o pretend_a reformation_n viz._n about_o a_o hundred_o and_o fifty_o year_n ago_o for_o since_o they_o receive_v their_o bible_n from_o some_o church_n then_o in_o the_o world_n in_o case_n there_o be_v at_o that_o time_n no_o true_a nor_o uncorrupted_a church_n it_o must_v follow_v that_o they_o have_v no_o good_a authority_n for_o their_o bible_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a if_o the_o protestant_n will_v own_o that_o they_o receive_v their_o bible_n from_o good_a hand_n they_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o they_o have_v it_o from_o a_o true_a church_n and_o consequent_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o one_o in_o the_o world_n when_o they_o begin_v to_o reform_v and_o from_o hence_o it_o will_v immediate_o follow_v that_o the_o first_o reformer_n separate_v from_o the_o whole_a world_n as_o have_v be_v say_v do_v also_o separate_v from_o the_o true_a church_n which_o as_o we_o here_o suppose_v they_o to_o confess_v be_v then_o in_o it_o and_o therefore_o must_v be_v account_v schismatic_n unless_o they_o can_v give_v we_o some_o better_a definition_n of_o schism_n than_o that_o which_o hitherto_o we_o have_v have_v viz._n of_o its_o be_v a_o separation_n from_o the_o obedience_n and_o communion_n of_o the_o true_a church_n there_o be_v yet_o another_o reason_n why_o we_o ask_v the_o protestant_n on_o what_o authority_n they_o receive_v the_o scripture_n and_o it_o be_v because_o we_o will_v likewise_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o what_o i_o hint_v above_o viz._n that_o they_o ought_v to_o admit_v other_o thing_n and_o indeed_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n upon_o the_o same_o authority_n on_o which_o they_o admit_v the_o letter_n and_o therefore_o when_o they_o say_v that_o they_o have_v the_o scripture_n from_o the_o roman_a catholic_o we_o tell_v they_o that_o if_o the_o roman_a catholic_o may_v be_v rely_v on_o for_o the_o reception_n of_o the_o scripture_n they_o may_v be_v credit_v for_o other_o doctrine_n if_o they_o be_v bad_a witness_n no_o part_n of_o their_o testimony_n can_v be_v valid_a wherefore_o if_o any_o part_n of_o it_o be_v so_o they_o must_v be_v look_v on_o as_o good_a witness_n and_o consequent_o their_o whole_a testimony_n ought_v to_o be_v embrace_v and_o this_o be_v another_o cause_n of_o this_o question_n but_o why_o do_v the_o catholic_n derogate_v so_o much_o from_o the_o most_o abundant_a perfection_n of_o holy_a scripture_n as_o to_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v insufficient_a of_o itself_o to_o decide_v our_o controversy_n in_o faith_n it_o be_v because_o the_o daily_a and_o palpable_a experience_n of_o mankind_n teach_v it_o to_o be_v so_o neither_o be_v it_o any_o derogation_n to_o a_o law_n to_o say_v that_o it_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o what_o never_o yet_o any_o law_n be_v without_o viz._n a_o judge_n or_o interpreter_n of_o it_o and_o i_o wonder_v that_o the_o protestant_n who_o confess_v that_o every_o man_n be_v fallible_a and_o as_o such_o may_v be_v mistake_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o scripture_n and_o that_o to_o his_o damnation_n shall_v look_v on_o it_o as_o a_o derogation_n to_o the_o same_o scripture_n to_o think_v that_o god_n who_o mercy_n be_v over_o all_o his_o work_n have_v appoint_v some_o mean_n to_o keep_v we_o from_o be_v so_o mistake_v especial_o when_o this_o help_n be_v not_o so_o much_o for_o the_o scripture_n as_o for_o our_o understanding_n it_o argue_v no_o more_o a_o defect_n in_o those_o sacred_a volume_n that_o our_o narrow_a

for_o this_o purpose_n what_o great_a affront_n be_v it_o to_o the_o scripture_n to_o declare_v that_o it_o can_v be_v understand_v without_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n than_o it_o be_v to_o say_v that_o it_o can_v be_v understand_v without_o ministerial_a guide_n nor_o even_o with_o they_o according_a to_o protestant_n any_o more_o than_o fallible_o which_o be_v in_o truth_n not_o
