be_v this_o these_o newtralist_n in_o religion_n do_v not_o agree_v even_o in_o the_o general_a ground_n of_o christian_a faith_n to_o wit_n in_o the_o article_n of_o one_o god_n of_o the_o trinity_n of_o christ_n etc._n etc._n with_o any_o other_o christian_n this_o be_v prove_v because_o as_o all_o other_o christian_n do_v believe_v in_o these_o general_a head_n so_o do_v each_o of_o they_o

any_o particular_a sect_n or_o in_o any_o particular_a manner_n therefore_o it_o evident_o follow_v that_o they_o have_v no_o true_a belief_n even_o of_o those_o general_a and_o fundamental_a article_n 5._o a_o five_o reason_n shall_v be_v this_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o what_o general_a propension_n nature_n or_o rather_o god_n himself_o by_o nature_n as_o his_o instrument_n have_v ingraft_v in_o all_o man_n the_o same_o be_v in_o itself_o most_o true_a certain_a and_o warrantable_a as_o for_o example_n nature_n have_v implant_v in_o each_o man_n soul_n a_o secret_a

work_v nothing_o in_o vain_a now_o to_o apply_v this_o we_o find_v both_o by_o history_n and_o by_o experience_n that_o diverse_a zealous_a and_o fervent_a professor_n of_o all_o religion_n
