With a ten-folde probation of the same churches doctrine touching one of the most important points of our creede, which is of our sauiours descending into Hell. By Iames Maxvvell.

as_o we_o have_v already_o show_v that_o he_o have_v then_o must_v it_o needs_o be_v true_a that_o the_o same_o god_n have_v take_v order_n for_o their_o maintenance_n and_o true_o see_v that_o all_o
