A57693	Catholick charitie complaining and maintaining, that Rome is uncharitable to sundry eminent parts of the Catholick Church, and especially to Protestants, and is therefore Uncatholick : and so, a Romish book, called Charitie mistaken, though undertaken by a second, is it selfe a mistaking / by F.

of_o the_o live_n and_o all_o live_a man_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n who_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o the_o same_o saint_n of_o all_o the_o honour_n which_o catholic_n pay_v to_o they_o

the_o soul_n of_o saint_n under_o the_o altar_n 10._o we_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v hasten_v the_o come_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o their_o resurrection_n and_o their_o consummation_n in_o glory_n and_o to_o this_o end_n that_o god_n will_v hasten_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o great_a whore_n 2._o which_o have_v shed_v their_o blood_n and_o avenge_v it_o on_o she_o a_o second_o untruth_n be_v this_o that_o we_o rob_v all_o live_a man_n of_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n i_o may_v indeed_o say_v that_o this_o build_n be_v of_o another_o stuff_n and_o different_a from_o the_o foundation_n that_o we_o be_v cruel_a to_o those_o that_o we_o see_v not_o for_o we_o see_v those_o that_o be_v live_v but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v also_o untrue_a for_o we_o allow_v and_o

that_o we_o can_v believe_v by_o a_o supernatural_a faith_n that_o they_o know_v our_o necessity_n our_o thought_n 14.23_o and_o desire_n and_o what_o be_v without_o faith_n be_v sin_n we_o dare_v

catholic_n pay_v unto_o they_o the_o name_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v to_o we_o as_o a_o precious_a ointment_n 112.6_o and_o it_o be_v keep_v by_o we_o in_o everlasting_a remembrance_n we_o delight_v to_o make_v mention_n of_o their_o heavenly_a virtue_n of_o their_o valiant_a action_n and_o constant_a passion_n of_o their_o wise_a counsel_n powerful_a exhortation_n excellent_a exposition_n of_o

enlive_v with_o their_o heat_n who_o quicken_v be_v dead_a as_o the_o dead_a prophet_n enlive_v the_o dead_a soldier_n these_o honour_n we_o do_v they_o and_o thus_o shall_v it_o be_v do_v to_o those_o who_o god_n do_v honour_n and_o if_o thus_o we_o do_v honour_n they_o then_o far_o from_o truth_n be_v it_o that_o we_o rob_v they_o of_o all_o that_o honour_n which_o true_a catholic_n pay_v they_o and_o last_o where_o he_o speak_v of_o infinite_a detraction_n slander_n and_o reproach_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o god_n this_o be_v a_o most_o unjust_a and_o unjustifiable_a slander_n we_o reverence_v the_o whole_a church_n of_o god_n as_o our_o mother_n we_o love_v her_o peace_n and_o to_o this_o end_n be_v that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n and_o to_o this_o
