in_o invincible_a ignorance_n or_o most_o erroneous_o both_o discipline_v and_o doctrinate_v through_o all_o which_o they_o become_v plunge_v into_o such_o a_o desperate_a and_o inextricable_a

what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o add_v a_o few_o line_n more_o if_o a_o pope_n state_n or_o synod_n may_v impose_v article_n of_o faith_n or_o form_n of_o worship_n

several_a gross_a absurdity_n 1._o that_o it_o be_v superfluous_a for_o common_a people_n to_o have_v or_o read_v the_o bible_n because_o they_o may_v not_o be_v know_v to_o believe_v any_o part_n

that_o it_o be_v needless_a to_o try_v the_o spirit_n because_o according_a to_o such_o constitution_n they_o may_v neither_o fly_v from_o they_o though_o they_o discover_v they_o to_o be_v

have_v give_v unto_o any_o man_n a_o more_o discern_a spirit_n than_o ordinary_o because_o though_o never_o so_o transcendent_o full_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o must_v notwithstanding_o quench_v

their_o decree_n they_o must_v assume_v to_o they_o the_o spirit_n of_o infallibility_n something_o above_o the_o common_a sphere_n of_o mankind_n otherwise_o they_o take_v too_o much_o upon_o they_o

that_o it_o shall_v be_v needless_a for_o the_o pope_n to_o take_v counsel_n of_o his_o cardinal_n the_o statesman_n to_o receive_v information_n from_o the_o subject_n who_o they_o represent_v and_o from_o who_o they_o receive_v their_o authority_n in_o trust_n only_o synod_n of_o any_o other_o or_o for_o they_o themselves_o to_o study_v the_o point_n before_o hand_n or_o as_o private_a man_n

condition_n have_v be_v before_o 5._o it_o will_v follow_v that_o whosoever_o take_v upon_o they_o this_o infallibility_n of_o decide_v controversy_n shall_v never_o fail_v therein_o if_o their_o civil_a power_n be_v strong_a enough_o to_o back_v they_o in_o it_o because_o both_o pope_n state_n and_o synod_n do_v alike_o lay_v claim_n at_o least_o require_v the_o same_o obedience_n to_o whatsoever_o they_o decree_v in_o defiance_n of_o one_o another_o defend_v themselves_o and_o doctrine_n more_o by_o civil_a power_n than_o either_o right_a or_o reason_n it_o be_v the_o sword_n not_o the_o scripture_n or_o reason_n which_o decide_v the_o controversy_n between_o carnal_a and_o persecute_v people_n and_o last_o if_o fine_v imprison_a or_o any_o degree_n of_o persecute_v or_o use_v of_o coercive_a mean_n against_o such_o as_o differ_v from_o they_o in_o opinion_n be_v lawful_a in_o the_o true_a church_n or_o people_n of_o god_n the_o papist_n or_o any_o other_o heretic_n because_o they_o take_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o true_a church_n be_v bind_v to_o use_v the_o same_o even_o against_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n because_o they_o differ_v from_o they_o neither_o shall_v it_o be_v any_o aggravation_n unto_o the_o jew_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n for_o crucify_v of_o our_o saviour_n and_o shed_v so_o much_o innocent_a blood_n of_o saint_n which_o yet_o
