you_o in_o the_o first_o place_n to_o her_o doctrine_n of_o infallibility_n which_o speak_v her_o uncapable_a of_o err_v in_o any_o of_o her_o decree_n and_o determination_n which_o infallibility_n

because_o of_o the_o infinite_a mischief_n that_o it_o do_v in_o the_o world_n for_o the_o romish_a church_n pretence_n to_o infallibility_n be_v that_o which_o enable_v she_o to_o lord_n it_o at_o that_o intolerable_a rate_n over_o the_o mind_n and_o conscience_n of_o her_o subject_n and_o to_o make_v they_o the_o great_a of_o slave_n and_o vassal_n and_o it_o be_v this_o also_o that_o make_v

most_o that_o can_v be_v conclude_v from_o thence_o be_v that_o he_o will_v ever_o have_v a_o church_n upon_o earth_n in_o spite_n of_o all_o the_o endeavour_n of_o hell_n to_o destroy_v it_o but_o

have_v it_o that_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v never_o so_o prevail_v against_o the_o church_n as_o to_o occasion_n she_o fall_v into_o error_n of_o judgement_n why_o may_v we_o not_o as_o well_o extend_v it_o so_o far_o as_o to_o secure_v she_o also_o from_o error_n of_o practice_n these_o be_v no_o less_o dangerous_a or_o destructive_a than_o those_o of_o judgement_n but_o i_o retain_v so_o much_o charity_n for_o the_o romish_a church_n still_o as_o not_o to_o think_v she_o so_o forsake_a of_o all_o modesty_n as_o to_o deny_v that_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o gate_n of_o hell_n have_v

who_o notwithstanding_o the_o great_a difference_n that_o be_v among_o they_o also_o can_v join_v together_o against_o protestant_n till_o i_o see_v again_o that_o our_o zeal_n against_o popery_n be_v

account_v sufficient_a to_o give_v they_o the_o reputation_n of_o good_a protestant_n or_o good_a churchman_n so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v bad_a christian_n and_o their_o conversation_n declare_v they_o no_o hearty_a friend_n to_o any_o religion_n and_o in_o a_o word_n till_o i_o see_v that_o our_o excellent_a reform_a religion_n that_o the_o pure_a and_o undefiled_a religion_n of_o the_o
