A42568	An answer to the compiler of the Nubes testium wherein is shewn that antiquity (in relation to the points of controversie set down by him) did not for the first five hundred years believe, teach, or practice as the Church of Rome doth at present believe, teach, and practice : together with a vindication of the Veteres vindicati from the late weak and disingenuous attempts of the author of Transubstantiation defended / by the author of the Answer to Mr. Sclater of Putney.

we_o do_v not_o own_v it_o for_o scripture_n they_o of_o the_o compiler_n church_n do_v affirm_v the_o contrary_a and_o therefore_o why_o do_v not_o he_o go_v regular_o to_o work_v to_o disprove_v
