out_o of_o memory_n for_o such_o be_v their_o pestilent_a persuasion_n that_o all_o thing_n they_o will_v as_o it_o seem_v bring_v to_o confusion_n nothing_o admitting_a at_o all_o but_o that_o which_o be_v in_o scripture_n express_o contain_v which_o they_o also_o will_v vuderstonde_v after_o their_o own_o fantasy_n to_o the_o contrarienge_n whereof_o if_o you_o bring_v the_o sentence_n of_o any_o ancient_a doctor_n as_o of_o jerome_n austyne_n gregory_n or_o ambrose_n their_o authority_n by_o and_o by_o they_o trede_v under_o foot_n sayinge_v they_o be_v man_n to_o who_o judgement_n

of_o say_v it_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o sophistical_a philosophy_n &_o so_o after_o this_o manner_n many_o of_o we_o our_o arrogant_a blyndenes_n blynde_o defend_v from_o the_o which_o by_o no_o mean_a we_o will_v be_v deliver_v but_o sturde_o stand_v in_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o same_o which_o thing_n friend_n be_v soore_a to_o be_v lament_v for_o these_o man_n under_o the_o presence_n of_o

will_v i_o can_v not_o all_o express_v 4._o for_o even_o as_o god_n himself_o be_v nothing_o but_o truth_n and_o wisdom_n so_o the_o dyvel_n be_v nothing_o but_o blindness_n and_o folly_n and_o as_o

to_o the_o which_o by_o goddis_fw-la law_n strayte_o all_o true_a subject_n be_v bind_v have_v late_o be_v show_v and_o have_v succeed_v as_o a_o effect_n of_o this_o blind_a superstition_n we_o dear_a friend_n to_o the_o great_a sorrow_n of_o such_o mind_n as_o of_o heart_n desire_v the_o common_a quietness_n these_o day_n paste_n have_v see_v in_o they_o which_o nothing_o fear_v the_o

that_o in_o this_o plain_o most_o christen_v people_n here_o you_o may_v see_v the_o most_o dyvellyshe_a effect_n of_o this_o superstition_n which_o induce_v man_n of_o such_o learning_a of_o such_o
