1._o first_o that_o there_o be_v no_o evil_a or_o harm_n do_v or_o say_v in_o the_o protestant_a church_n to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o any_o catholic_a soul_n that_o may_v not_o either_o be_v hinder_v or_o prevent_v very_o well_o by_o the_o instruction_n of_o priest_n for_o they_o preach_v not_o against_o any_o notable_a point_n of_o doctrine_n hold_v in_o the_o catholic_a church_n although_o e._n some_o simple_a minister_n for_o want_n of_o matter_n may_v glance_v at_o some_o of_o our_o tenet_n by_o half_n understand_v or_o in_o these_o day_n to_o please_v his_o auditory_a may_v rail_v against_o the_o pope_n which_o he_o do_v so_o irrational_o that_o few_o protestant_n of_o any_o judgement_n do_v believe_v he_o for_o if_o he_o shall_v serious_o preach_v controversy_n as_o insist_v serious_o upon_o the_o true_a doctrine_n of_o both_o side_n his_o auditor_n or_o at_o lest_o some_o of_o they_o will_v be_v apt_a to_o doubt_v and_o so_o to_o search_v and_o dive_v further_o into_o the_o truth_n for_o as_o saint_n augustine_n say_v doubt_n beget_v science_n which_o may_v be_v a_o occasion_n of_o sum_n fall_v from_o he_o which_o fear_v he_o be_v silent_a in_o doctrine_n and_o only_o teach_v morality_n which_o why_o a_o man_n may_v not_o hear_v in_o urgent_a extremity_n from_o any_o man_n i_o can_v conceive_v 2._o second_o that_o their_o go_v to_o church_n will_v be_v a_o conservation_n and_o a_o preservation_n of_o their_o land_n and_o good_n with_o a_o prevention_n of_o ruin_n to_o the_o family_n and_o posterity_n 3._o that_o it_o will_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o obtain_v and_o purchase_v the_o love_n of_o their_o neighbour_n and_o a_o mean_n of_o their_o conversion_n by_o a_o affable_a conversation_n by_o which_o likewise_o they_o may_v bear_v the_o great_a office_n in_o the_o common_a wealth_n and_o become_v reader_n parliament_n man_n as_o well_o as_o other_o of_o who_o and_o who_o power_n and_o force_v in_o matter_n of_o religion_n these_o day_n can_v somewhat_o declare_v 4._o four_o that_o it_o will_v be_v a_o mean_n that_o whereas_o priest_n leave_v their_o college_n and_o now_o live_v in_o private_a man_n house_n to_o the_o benefit_n of_o one_o or_o two_o and_o to_o the_o great_a danger_n of_o themselves_o and_o their_o patron_n they_o may_v by_o this_o mean_v more_o free_o converse_v with_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n after_o a_o apostolical_a manner_n and_o convert_v many_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n the_o increase_n of_o his_o church_n and_o good_a of_o their_o own_o soul_n whereas_o now_o they_o do_v little_a good_a out_o of_o that_o private_a house_n unless_o maintain_v some_o decay_a gentlewoman_n in_o good_a clothes_n to_o gossip_v up_o and_o down_o and_o like_o bell_n to_o ring_v their_o praise_n that_o they_o may_v fish_v one_o in_o a_o year_n to_o the_o disparagement_n of_o their_o function_n and_o great_a prejudice_n of_o their_o mission_n 5._o five_o that_o divers_a schismatic_n that_o now_o go_v to_o church_n with_o a_o ill_a conscience_n and_o think_v themselves_o in_o state_n of_o damnation_n do_v suffer_v spiritual_a detriment_n and_o oftentimes_o be_v prevent_v with_o sudden_a death_n everlasting_o perish_v 6._o six_o many_o thousand_o that_o be_v very_o moral_a and_o well_o affect_v protestant_n be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o stop_n of_o recusancie_n will_v become_v catholic_n

canon_n soever_o forbid_v communication_n with_o heretic_n they_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o notorious_a heretic_n in_o point_n of_o their_o heresy_n or_o particular_o denounce_v excommunicate_v

country_n to_o be_v convert_v and_o not_o know_v the_o catholic_a church_n after_o all_o this_o some_o may_v yet_o say_v that_o it_o have_v be_v a_o long_a custom_n with_o they_o to_o abstain_v from_o the_o protestant_a church_n above_o these_o threescore_o year_n and_o they_o have_v suffer_v and_o lose_v much_o by_o refuse_v the_o same_o and_o can_v i_o have_v so_o little_a judgement_n as_o to_o think_v upon_o my_o own_o bare_a word_n or_o opinion_n to_o make_v they_o leave_v this_o their_o custom_n i_o answer_v how_o small_a soever_o my_o judgement_n be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o my_o opinion_n but_o the_o common_a opinion_n of_o divine_n in_o the_o catholic_a church_n and_o i_o never_o speak_v with_o any_o priest_n in_o england_n about_o this_o point_n in_o my_o life_n that_o be_v able_a to_o give_v i_o satisfaction_n to_o the_o contrary_n some_o indeed_o have_v answer_v i_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o scandal_n other_o if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o distinctive_a sign_n and_o when_o i_o have_v urge_v that_o scandal_n may_v be_v avoid_v as_o i_o have_v before_o say_v and_o for_o a_o distinctive_a sign_n i_o know_v none_o for_o who_o shall_v institute_v that_o sign_n then_o they_o have_v answer_v that_o a_o long_a custom_n have_v bring_v it_o in_o i_o have_v bless_v myself_o to_o think_v that_o man_n shall_v so_o unjust_o deal_v with_o

on_o or_o chain_v they_o about_o threescore_o year_n since_o and_o now_o to_o kick_v of_o these_o chain_n or_o their_o devise_n will_v prove_v forsooth_o scandal_n because_o they_o will_v seem_v

suppose_a distinctive_a sign_n or_o before_o the_o same_o can_v be_v cause_n of_o scandal_n i_o can_v never_o yet_o hear_v any_o man_n give_v but_o only_o the_o aforesaid_a r._n p._n have_v give_v in_o write_v the_o aforesaid_a suggest_a untruth_n with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o passion_n that_o this_o my_o opinion_n be_v think_v rational_a ●or_a almost_o forty_o year_n ago_o and_o since_o

to_o any_o divine_a in_o christendom_n these_o three_o follow_a question_n relate_v the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o protestant_a church_n in_o exterior_a action_n for_o we_o meddle_v not_o as_o i_o

fortune_n 1._o whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o catholic_n to_o hear_v the_o prayer_n epistle_n gospel_n and_o psalm_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n among_o protestant_n in_o their_o church_n 2._o whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o hear_v a_o protestant_n preach_v in_o the_o same_o place_n some_o morality_n although_o it_o shall_v by_o chance_n happen_v that_o some_o ignorant_a minister_n

for_o a_o catholic_n to_o receive_v bare_a bread_n and_o wine_n in_o remembrance_n that_o christ_n die_v for_o he_o as_o a_o pious_a ceremony_n and_o whether_o not_o better_o so_o take_v then_o without_o such_o remembrance_n i_o dare_v say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o impartial_a divine_a but_o will_v answer_v yes_o and_o for_o these_o opinion_n i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o if_o i_o have_v

subdolous_a manner_n propose_v as_o follow_v 1._o whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o frequent_v the_o church_n of_o heretic_n where_o there_o be_v both_o imminent_a danger_n of_o subversion_n and_o

possible_o happen_v in_o the_o protestant_a church_n as_o i_o have_v before_o say_v but_o the_o question_n only_o be_v what_o catholic_n may_v exterior_o do_v for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o life_n with_o a_o good_a intention_n and_o how_o and_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o may_v best_o converse_v and_o preserve_v themselves_o from_o ruin_n with_o most_o security_n therefore_o i_o pray_v

no_o custom_n for_o a_o custom_n be_v a_o continuance_n of_o a_o thing_n time_n out_o of_o mind_n without_o any_o interruption_n now_o recusancy_n have_v be_v interrupt_v oftentimes_o first_o by_o

for_o the_o love_n of_o recusancie_n as_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n for_o whosoever_o do_v the_o mean_a work_n no_o indiscretion_n therein_o be_v apprehend_v by_o the_o doer_n either_o for_o god_n
