it_o there_o but_o let_v the_o doctor_n leave_v cant_v and_o give_v a_o solid_a reason_n if_o he_o can_v why_o the_o church_n which_o declare_v authoritative_o the_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v not_o authority_n enough_o and_o knowledge_n to_o instruct_v we_o in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n if_o there_o be_v no_o scripture_n the_o doctor_n proceed_v in_o the_o same_o page_n and_o say_v the_o teacher_n of_o the_o jewish_a church_n do_v not_o proceed_v so_o far_o as_o to_o deprive_v man_n of_o the_o use_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n in_o the_o 2d_o page_z he_o can_v avoid_v a_o contradiction_n for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o jewish_a teacher_n do_v take_v away_o the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n from_o the_o people_n which_o the_o doctor_n insinuate_v be_v the_o scripture_n then_o they_o take_v away_o the_o scripture_n and_o do_v not_o but_o suppose_v they_o do_v not_o take_v away_o the_o scripture_n yet_o the_o doctor_n say_v they_o take_v away_o the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n then_o a_o man_n may_v have_v the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o not_o have_v the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n then_o the_o jew_n may_v have_v the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o not_o see_v christ_n in_o it_o as_o in_o fact_n do_v not_o so_o may_v the_o vulgar_a have_v the_o new_a testament_n and_o yet_o not_o see_v the_o they_o new_a law_n in_o it_o so_o may_v a_o protestant_a cobbler_n have_v the_o bible_n and_o yet_o want_v the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n and_o to_o who_o shall_v he_o go_v to_o for_o it_o what_o if_o he_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o pope_n for_o the_o doctor_n own_v in_o his_o sermon_n the_o pope_n have_v the_o key_n and_o indeed_o i_o can_v tell_v how_o the_o doctor_n shall_v come_v by_o it_o unless_o he_o steal_v it_o or_o perhaps_o it_o be_v find_v in_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o monastery_n here_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o reformation_n which_o be_v break_v down_o the_o doctor_n may_v say_v to_o seek_v for_o this_o key_n and_o it_o be_v find_v there_o all_o rusty_a as_o the_o doctor_n say_v and_o they_o have_v be_v rub_v it_o ever_o since_o but_o to_o come_v to_o my_o purpose_n how_o be_v it_o that_o the_o scripture_n alone_o can_v perfect_o instruct_v we_o in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o this_o doctor_n say_v when_o a_o whole_a multitude_n may_v have_v they_o and_o yet_o not_o see_v the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o they_o as_o the_o jew_n have_v the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o see_v not_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o it_o now_o why_o may_v not_o the_o doctor_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n put_v the_o scripture_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o all_o the_o vulgar_a and_o yet_o teach_v they_o false_a doctrine_n from_o their_o pulpit_n and_o keep_v the_o true_a sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n from_o the_o people_n as_o

it_o the_o doctor_n must_v answer_v that_o the_o teacher_n of_o these_o man_n do_v give_v the_o people_n the_o bible_n but_o keep_v from_o they_o the_o key_n of_o knowledge_n as_o the_o scribe_n and_o
