make_v myself_o merry_a here_o in_o a_o thing_n so_o serious_a else_o i_o can_v have_v tell_v you_o that_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o a_o argument_n when_o i_o be_v at_o school_n somewhat_o like_o this_o he_o that_o drink_v well_o sleeps_z well_o he_o that_o sleep_v well_o commit_v no_o sin_n he_o that_o commit_v no_o sin_n will_v be_v save_v therefore_o he_o that_o drink_v well_o will_v be_v save_v but_o i_o forbear_v and_o as_o to_o the_o aforesaid_a argument_n whereby_o one_o of_o your_o priest_n that_o have_v print_v it_o think_v to_o end_v all_o controversy_n i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o but_o this_o first_o that_o as_o there_o be_v no_o christian_a but_o must_v ready_o confess_v that_o the_o miracle_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n wrought_v be_v a_o confirmation_n of_o the_o divinity_n of_o their_o doctrine_n so_o there_o be_v no_o man_n of_o any_o brain_n can_v admit_v of_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o dilemma_n as_o universal_o true_a that_o a_o religion_n that_o go_v against_o flesh_n and_o blood_n if_o propagate_v without_o miracle_n must_v therefore_o be_v necessary_o divine_a second_o that_o so_o far_o as_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n agree_v with_o the_o true_o christian_a religion_n so_o far_o it_o be_v undoubted_o true_a and_o it_o will_v natural_o follow_v that_o if_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v true_a the_o religion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n so_o far_o as_o it_o agree_v with_o the_o christian_a religion_n must_v needs_o be_v true_a and_o the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n but_o that_o the_o roman_a religion_n must_v therefore_o be_v true_a where_o it_o go_v away_o and_o differ_v from_o the_o true_o christian_a religion_n reveal_v to_o we_o in_o the_o gospel_n be_v a_o consequence_n which_o none_o but_o child_n can_v approve_v of_o three_o with_o this_o argument_n a_o man_n may_v prove_v the_o divinity_n of_o almost_o any_o religion_n in_o the_o world_n he_o that_o be_v no_o stranger_n to_o history_n must_v needs_o know_v what_o severity_n what_o austerity_n of_o life_n the_o brahmin_n or_o the_o heathen_a friar_n in_o the_o indies_n do_v both_o prescribe_v and_o practice_n and_o what_o proselyte_n they_o make_v and_o how_o full_a the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o great_a mogul_n be_v of_o they_o how_o some_o wallow_v in_o ash_n day_n and_o night_n how_o other_o go_v charge_v with_o heavy_a iron_n chain_n all_o their_o day_n how_o other_o stand_v upright_o upon_o their_o leg_n for_o whole_a week_n together_o etc._n etc._n how_o in_o japan_n and_o other_o place_n of_o the_o indies_n the_o priest_n persuade_v the_o people_n to_o fast_v themselves_o to_o death_n to_o go_v long_a pilgrimage_n to_o give_v all_o they_o have_v to_o the_o priest_n to_o throw_v themselves_o down_o from_o steep_a rock_n and_o break_v their_o neck_n and_o all_o to_o arrive_v the_o soon_o to_o the_o happiness_n of_o another_o world_n etc._n etc._n i_o think_v there_o can_v be_v thing_n more_o contrary_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n than_o these_o and_o yet_o we_o see_v these_o doctrine_n be_v propagate_v daily_o without_o any_o force_n of_o arm_n only_o by_o example_n and_o persuasion_n to_o be_v sure_a without_o any_o miracle_n but_o i_o hope_v that_o do_v not_o prove_v their_o religion_n to_o be_v divine_a it_o be_v a_o dictate_v of_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n that_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n be_v straight_o and_o therefore_o people_n that_o be_v religious_o incline_v be_v easy_o win_v over_o to_o those_o man_n who_o they_o see_v exercise_v such_o severity_n upon_o themselves_o to_o conclude_v madam_n when_o all_o be_v do_v what_o the_o true_a church_n be_v must_v be_v try_v by_o the_o write_n of_o the_o evangelist_n and_o apostle_n we_o see_v that_o even_o in_o the_o apostle_n day_n corruption_n creep_v into_o the_o church_n witness_v the_o church_n of_o corinth_n galatia_n and_o colosse_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o gospel_n begin_v even_o then_o to_o be_v pervert_v and_o mingle_v with_o idle_a and_o foolish_a opinion_n and_o practice_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v needs_o think_v that_o after_o the_o apostle_n decease_n the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o same_o fare_n so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o standard_n or_o touchstone_n leave_v whereby_o the_o truth_n and_o sincerity_n of_o
