of_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n be_v very_o natural_a to_o conceive_v and_o the_o devotion_n of_o the_o people_n towards_o the_o bless_a virgin_n compare_v with_o their_o notion_n and_o zeal_n

she_o what_o homage_n they_o think_v fit_v themselves_o without_o force_v other_o to_o join_v in_o it_o this_o matter_n though_o very_o scandalous_a to_o our_o religion_n yet_o will_v not_o so_o much_o concern_v our_o practice_n but_o now_o that_o the_o very_a public_a devotion_n of_o the_o church_n be_v whole_o overrun_v with_o this_o abuse_n so_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o pray_v to_o god_n with_o they_o unless_o you_o will_v be_v content_a to_o pray_v to_o holy_a mary_n too_o it_o be_v certain_o very_o necessary_a for_o we_o to_o understand_v the_o danger_n of_o such_o a_o error_n which_o be_v thus_o combine_v with_o the_o most_o public_a and_o solemn_a piety_n of_o a_o whole_a body_n of_o christian_n and_o then_o three_o this_o be_v a_o point_n not_o only_o of_o very_o great_a moment_n in_o itself_o and_o of_o a_o particular_a concern_v to_o we_o but_o very_o plain_a too_o and_o easy_a to_o be_v understand_v in_o other_o thing_n though_o our_o argument_n be_v strong_a to_o those_o that_o comprehend_v the_o force_n of_o they_o yet_o many_o time_n the_o subject_n be_v obscure_a and_o the_o disputation_n past_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o ordinary_a christian._n thus_o in_o their_o doctrine_n about_o the_o church_n the_o authority_n unity_n infallibility_n and_o other_o either_o real_a or_o pretend_a privilege_n of_o it_o the_o argument_n be_v nice_a and_o easy_o perplex_v a_o uninstructed_a capacity_n but_o here_o the_o advice_n be_v evident_a and_o the_o whole_a subject_a easy_a the_o only_a hardship_n be_v to_o bring_v they_o to_o own_o their_o doctrine_n but_o afterward_o the_o most_o vulgar_a christian_a be_v able_a to_o discern_v the_o falseness_n of_o it_o those_o first_o rudiment_n of_o christianity_n thou_o shall_v worship_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o he_o only_o shall_v thou_o serve_v how_o shall_v they_o call_v on_o he_o in_o who_o they_o have_v not_o believe_v there_o be_v one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n and_o the_o like_a be_v abundant_o sufficient_a to_o show_v how_o impossible_a it_o be_v that_o those_o shall_v not_o have_v depart_v from_o their_o first_o faith_n who_o give_v religious_a honour_n to_o the_o virgin_n mary_n and_o set_v she_o up_o as_o a_o mediatrix_fw-la in_o heaven_n now_o this_o be_v once_o prove_v it_o will_v from_o hence_o present_o follow_v four_o that_o all_o the_o pretence_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n against_o we_o be_v vain_a and_o that_o we_o not_o only_o have_v sufficient_a reason_n but_o that_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o reform_v as_o we_o do_v from_o they_o for_o to_o consider_v this_o argument_n in_o one_o word_n if_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v actual_o and_o undoubted_o erroneous_a in_o this_o point_n then_o let_v she_o fancy_v what_o she_o please_v it_o be_v plain_a she_o can_v err_v and_o be_v not_o what_o she_o say_v infallible_a if_o she_o be_v not_o infallible_a then_o there_o can_v be_v no_o obligation_n to_o believe_v and_o follow_v she_o at_o all_o adventure_n without_o examine_v what_o she_o teach_v whether_o it_o be_v true_a or_o false_a if_o we_o may_v examine_v her_o doctrine_n than_o the_o end_n of_o all_o examination_n be_v to_o find_v out_o the_o truth_n and_o to_o cleave_v unto_o it_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o when_o upon_o the_o enquiry_n we_o have_v discover_v she_o to_o be_v involve_v in_o grievous_a error_n it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o abandon_v her_o corruption_n and_o to_o declare_v against_o they_o and_o thus_o this_o one_o point_n alone_o be_v well_o clear_v do_v in_o the_o consequence_n of_o it_o plain_o prove_v a_o vindication_n of_o the_o whole_a work_n of_o the_o reformation_n and_o be_v alone_o sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v any_o unprejudiced_a mind_n what_o just_a cause_n we_o have_v for_o it_o and_o let_v we_o then_o bless_v god_n who_o have_v open_v our_o eye_n to_o discover_v such_o abuse_n as_o these_o and_o which_o have_v almost_o subvert_v the_o very_a chief_a principle_n of_o christianity_n and_o let_v we_o as_o we_o ought_v value_v nothing_o so_o much_o as_o that_o purity_n of_o religion_n in_o which_o we_o have_v the_o happiness_n to_o exceed_v most_o christian_n in_o the_o world_n let_v our_o adversary_n if_o they_o please_v revile_v we_o let_v they_o call_v we_o heretic_n and_o schismatic_n despiser_n of_o the_o church_n and_o hater_n of_o the_o bless_a virgin_n let_v they_o fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n with_o their_o anathema_n against_o we_o because_o we_o will_v not_o join_v with_o they_o in_o these_o and_o the_o
