to_o rail_v upon_o our_o doctrine_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o doctrine_n and_o by_o what_o right_a we_o may_v maintain_v it_o and_o set_v it_o forth_o i_o will_v not_o show_v at_o this_o

to_o say_v that_o this_o word_n that_o christ_n speak_v of_o here_o be_v evil_a and_o corrupt_a but_o now_o what_o say_v christ_n as_o touch_v the_o pure_a and_o good_a ground_n what_o increase_n come_v thereof_o the_o four_o part_n say_v he_o come_v to_o good_a and_o grow_v to_o ripeness_n who_o therefore_o can_v doubt_v but_o that_o the_o world_n continue_v in_o wickedness_n &_o without_o

the_o least_o prove_v this_o that_o our_o adversary_n the_o papist_n can_v not_o but_o confess_v whether_o they_o will_v or_o no_o that_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o world_n can_v not_o be_v amend_v thereby_o or_o take_v away_o although_o that_o both_o pure_a doctrine_n and_o preacher_n come_v unto_o it_o the_o very_a example_n of_o christ_n besides_o john_n and_o the_o apostle_n show_v sufficient_o that_o the_o matter_n can_v not_o be_v bring_v to_o such_o case_n that_o all_o shall_v believe_v and_o embrace_v the_o word_n it_o be_v the_o great_a part_n and_o it_o will_v be_v always_o evyll_n lewd_a and_o unfruictfull_a and_o very_o few_o be_v convert_v and_o bring_v to_o believe_v now_o if_o it_o so_o chance_v to_o the_o son_n of_o god_n what_o marvel_n be_v it_o if_o it_o chance_v so_o to_o john_n and_o to_o the_o apostle_n and_o now_o to_o we_o also_o at_o this_o time_n shall_v the_o fault_n therefore_o be_v lay_v to_o the_o doctrine_n why_o do_v they_o not_o as_o well_o blame_v and_o deny_v the_o good_a seed_n that_o fall_v upon_o the_o way_n the_o stone_n and_o the_o thorn_n but_o they_o shall_v rather_o follow_v the_o truth_n and_o refrayn_v from_o

then_o good_a and_o if_o fruit_n follow_v not_o thereafter_o beware_v thou_o blame_v not_o god_n and_o his_o word_n fruitful_a the_o fault_n be_v in_o the_o ground_n wherein_o the_o good_a seed_n be_v hurt_v corrupt_v and_o make_v unfruictfull_a wherefore_o this_o be_v but_o a_o slander_n of_o the_o papist_n where_o as_o they_o mysreport_v our_o doctrine_n for_o that_o it_o be_v assault_v with_o so_o many_o offence_n and_o sect_n let_v they_o condemn_v themselves_o rather_o and_o such_o other_o that_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o word_n with_o a_o true_a heart_n for_o the_o fault_n be_v not_o
