peter_n after_o he_o have_v confess_v he_o to_o be_v that_o christ_n and_o the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n thou_o be_v peter_n and_o upon_o this_o rock_n i_o will_v build_v my_o church_n but_o

the_o law_n of_o nature_n for_o this_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n as_o you_o will_v that_o man_n shall_v do_v unto_o you_o so_o do_v you_o unto_o they_o we_o will_v not_o be_v persecute_v and_o destroy_v for_o our_o opinion_n and_o religion_n therefore_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o persecute_v and_o destroy_v other_o but_o some_o will_v object_v we_o have_v a_o law_n and_o by_o this_o law_n they_o ought_v to_o be_v persecute_v and_o destroy_v i_o answer_v if_o that_o be_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n to_o warrant_v persecution_n we_o can_v not_o blame_v the_o jew_n when_o they_o crucify_a jesus_n christ_n for_o they_o say_v they_o have_v a_o law_n and_o that_o by_o this_o law_n he_o ought_v to_o die_v and_o we_o can_v not_o blame_v queen_n mary_n who_o by_o a_o law_n in_o her_o day_n

as_o so_o many_o nebuchadnezar_n give_v order_n that_o all_o person_n that_o will_v not_o worship_v their_o god_n of_o bread_n or_o refuse_v to_o bow_v before_o their_o image_n or_o will_v not_o

if_o he_o only_o be_v find_v err_v concern_v some_o article_n of_o religion_n he_o ought_v to_o be_v teach_v and_o admonish_v by_o the_o bishop_n and_o afterward_o reject_v from_o the_o congregation_n if_o he_o will_v not_o be_v persuade_v but_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v cast_v into_o prison_n nor_o deprive_v of_o his_o estate_n nor_o send_v to_o the_o galley_n nor_o condemn_v to_o die_v for_o this_o cruelty_n as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v be_v not_o only_o contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n also_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v cruel_a and_o tyrannous_a since_o contrary_a to_o christ_n doctrine_n and_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n she_o persecute_v and_o put_v man_n to_o death_n mere_o because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o her_o opinion_n and_o religion_n the_o origine_fw-la or_o the_o author_n of_o this_o hellish_a doctrine_n be_v a_o dominican_n friar_n or_o rather_o the_o king_n nabuchadnezzar_n for_o as_o he_o that_o will_v not_o worship_v his_o image_n be_v cast_v into_o a_o fiery_a furnace_n so_o those_o that_o will_v not_o worship_v the_o god_n of_o bread_n of_o the_o papist_n and_o bow_v to_o their_o image_n be_v condemn_v to_o be_v burn_v alive_a second_o i_o show_v that_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v idolater_n all_o those_o that_o do_v worship_n the_o creature_n for_o the_o creator_n be_v idolater_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v worship_n the_o creature_n for_o the_o creator_n therefore_o she_o be_v a_o idolater_n the_o major_a proposition_n of_o this_o argument_n be_v true_a and_o be_v grant_v by_o all_o divine_n as_o for_o the_o minor_a which_o be_v in_o question_n i_o prove_v it_o thus_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v worship_n a_o bit_n of_o bread_n bake_v upon_o the_o fire_n and_o take_v it_o for_o her_o god_n therefore_o she_o do_v worship_n the_o creature_n for_o the_o creator_n therefore_o she_o be_v a_o idolater_n that_o the_o roman_a church_n worship_n a_o bit_n of_o bread_n bake_v upon_o the_o fire_n and_o take_v it_o for_o her_o god_n this_o do_v clear_o appear_v since_o she_o believe_v that_o the_o bread_n be_v
