protestant_n do_v the_o same_o but_o we_o must_v desire_v the_o papist_n to_o give_v we_o leave_v to_o tell_v they_o that_o they_o most_o gross_o mistake_v if_o they_o say_v they_o agree_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n as_o for_o proof_n some_o of_o they_o hold_v it_o against_o faith_n to_o take_v the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n other_o it_o be_v against_o faith_n to_o refuse_v that_o oath_n some_o hold_v it_o of_o faith_n that_o the_o pope_n be_v head_n of_o the_o church_n by_o divine_a law_n other_o the_o contrary_n some_o hold_v it_o of_o faith_n that_o the_o bless_a virgin_n be_v free_a from_o actual_a sin_n other_o the_o contrary_n some_o that_o the_o pope_n power_n over_o prince_n in_o temporality_n be_v the_o fide_fw-la other_o the_o contrary_n some_o that_o it_o be_v universal_a tradition_n that_o the_o virgin_n mary_n be_v conceive_v in_o actual_a sin_n other_o the_o contrary_n and_o how_o the_o jesuit_n and_o franciscan_n and_o other_o order_n differ_v to_o this_o day_n i_o be_o sure_a need_v no_o memorandum_n and_o the_o best_a jest_n of_o all_o be_v the_o papist_n have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o yet_o agree_v in_o their_o very_a pretend_a mean_n of_o agreement_n and_o yet_o have_v the_o confidence_n to_o pretend_v a_o unity_n more_o than_o the_o protestant_n sore_v some_o of_o they_o say_v the_o pope_n with_o a_o council_n may_v determine_v all_o controversy_n other_o deny_v it_o some_o hold_n that_o a_o general_a council_n without_o a_o pope_n may_v do_v so_o other_o deny_v this_o other_o say_v both_o in_o conjunction_n be_v infallible_a determiner_n other_o deny_v this_o and_o some_o among_o the_o papist_n hold_v the_o acceptation_n on_o of_o the_o decree_n of_o council_n by_o the_o universal_a church_n be_v the_o only_a way_n to_o decide_v controversy_n which_o other_o deny_v by_o deny_v their_o church_n to_o be_v infallible_a and_o yet_o every_o part_n pretend_v to_o be_v part_n of_o the_o church_n in_o a_o word_n can_v the_o papist_n deny_v but_o that_o there_o have_v be_v pope_n against_o pope_n council_n against_o council_n nay_o council_n confirm_v by_o pope_n against_o pope_n confirm_v by_o council_n and_o last_o the_o church_n of_o some_o age_n against_o the_o church_n of_o other_o age_n and_o since_o every_o part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v so_o out_o of_o order_n methinks_v they_o shall_v not_o brag_v of_o so_o perfect_a a_o health_n as_o they_o do_v the_o papist_n say_v and_o do_v but_o say_v it_o that_o their_o doctrine_n be_v hold_v catholic_n and_o therefore_o they_o esteem_v it_o a_o insolent_a madness_n of_o we_o protestant_n to_o dispute_v against_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n first_o that_o their_o doctrine_n be_v catholic_n we_o answer_v that_o the_o great_a number_n of_o christian_n in_o the_o world_n deny_v it_o so_o that_o they_o can_v true_o say_v we_o dispute_v against_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o far_o we_o say_v suppose_v we_o shall_v in_o compliment_n to_o they_o grant_v that_o their_o church_n be_v catholic_n and_o universal_a yet_o we_o say_v that_o be_v no_o sufficient_a proof_n it_o come_v original_o from_o the_o apostle_n witness_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o milenaries_n and_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o eucharist_n for_o infant_n which_o be_v general_o teach_v by_o the_o universal_a church_n and_o believe_v as_o apostolical_a tradition_n but_o yet_o contradict_v by_o the_o universal_a church_n afterward_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o papist_n dare_v not_o deny_v so_o that_o we_o unavoidable_o cast_v the_o papist_n upon_o this_o rock_n that_o they_o must_v either_o conclude_v the_o apostle_n be_v fountain_n of_o contradictory_n doctrine_n or_o that_o the_o universal_a doctrine_n of_o the_o present_a church_n be_v no_o sufficient_a proof_n that_o it_o come_v original_o from_o the_o apostle_n because_o from_o church_n universal_a of_o one_o time_n and_o the_o church_n universal_a of_o another_o time_n do_v differ_v next_o for_o their_o say_n it_o be_v insolent_a madness_n to_o dispute_v against_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n first_o we_o be_v sure_a we_o can_v bring_v more_o christian_a witness_n that_o deny_v they_o be_v the_o whole_a church_n than_o they_o can_v bring_v to_o prove_v it_o but_o suppose_v we_o be_v as_o mad_a as_o they_o say_v we_o be_v and_o will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v to_o dispute_v against_o the_o whole_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n yet_o i_o hope_v we_o may_v desire_v to_o know_v of_o the_o papist_n if_o they_o can_v deny_v but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n in_o st._n au'stine_n time_n and_o esteem_v then_o a_o apostolical_a tradition_n even_o by_o st._n au'stine_n himself_o that_o the_o eucharist_n shall_v be_v administer_v to_o infant_n and_o then_o let_v they_o tell_v we_o whether_o it_o be_v insolent_a madness_n to_o dispute_v against_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n or_o be_v it_o not_o if_o it_o be_v not_o why_o do_v they_o accuse_v we_o for_o it_o but_o if_o it_o be_v insolent_a madness_n how_o mad_a and_o insolent_a be_v the_o papist_n church_n not_o only_o to_o dispute_v against_o this_o practice_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n of_o administer_a the_o eucharist_n to_o infant_n but_o utter_o abolish_n the_o practice_n of_o it_o so_o that_o the_o very_o worst_a the_o papist_n can_v say_v of_o we_o allow_v what_o they_o say_v to_o be_v true_a be_v that_o we_o but_o do_v what_o they_o themselves_o own_o already_o to_o have_v do_v and_o though_o the_o papist_n be_v please_v to_o say_v that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o ancient_a father_n assign_v separation_n from_o the_o visible_a church_n as_o a_o mark_n of_o heresy_n yet_o they_o can_v show_v one_o plain_a text_n of_o scripture_n to_o confirm_v it_o and_o for_o the_o papist_n brag_v of_o the_o antiquity_n and_o universality_n of_o their_o church_n doctrine_n though_o we_o allow_v it_o very_o ancient_a bate_v the_o primative_a time_n we_o answer_v first_o as_o to_o its_o antiquity_n we_o desire_v to_o see_v what_o antiquity_n they_o can_v show_v for_o their_o give_v the_o
