the_o scripture_n in_o some_o respect_n all_o thing_n be_v easy_a they_o be_v hard_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n for_o they_o can_v be_v assent_v to_o till_o god_n open_v the_o eye_n of_o our_o heart_n as_o he_o do_v to_o his_o disciple_n but_o all_o thing_n be_v set_v down_o in_o term_n plain_a enough_o so_o we_o use_v diligence_n to_o understand_v they_o i_o say_v all_o thing_n all_o the_o mystery_n of_o religion_n without_o as_o they_o call_v it_o any_o mental_a reservation_n yet_o so_o besot_v be_v they_o with_o this_o foolish_a device_n of_o they_o as_o that_o they_o stumble_v even_o at_o the_o plain_a scripture_n s._n matthew_n report_v that_o when_o our_o saviour_n come_v to_o judgement_n he_o shall_v say_v to_o the_o reprobate_n nescio_fw-la vos_fw-la i_o know_v you_o not_o and_o here_o say_v the_o friar_n christ_n use_v a_o mental_a reservation_n wherein_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o they_o be_v more_o ridiculous_a or_o impious_a for_o christ_n there_o allude_v to_o a_o usual_a form_n of_o speech_n among_o the_o jew_n who_o when_o they_o mislike_v a_o man_n give_v he_o a_o nescio_fw-la that_o be_v i_o know_v you_o not_o which_o form_n of_o speech_n be_v use_v at_o

we_o tell_v they_o hoc_fw-la est_fw-la corpus_fw-la meum_fw-la this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v figurative_o to_o be_v understand_v they_o say_v figure_n be_v not_o use_v in_o matter_n of_o will_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v plain_a and_o can_v they_o not_o remember_v how_o the_o sentence_n of_o judge_n ought_v to_o be_v plain_a but_o these_o man_n in_o some_o respect_n may_v be_v pardon_v for_o because_o they_o when_o they_o be_v cite_v &_o appear_v at_o the_o bar_n do_v equivocate_v and_o dissemble_v they_o think_v also_o that_o when_o christ_n shall_v come_v to_o judgement_n and_o pronounce_v sentence_n of_o salvation_n or_o damnation_n he_o shall_v speak_v doubtful_o but_o god_n be_v merciful_a to_o we_o and_o make_v we_o of_o the_o number_n of_o those_o to_o who_o he_o

other_o thing_n who_o swear_v to_o his_o neighbour_n and_o disappoint_v he_o not_o though_o it_o be_v to_o his_o hindrance_n such_o a_o man_n say_v david_n shall_v stand_v in_o the_o tabernacle_n of_o the_o lord_n by_o which_o be_v mean_v not_o only_o he_o that_o swear_v promissoriê_a that_o take_v a_o promissory_a oath_n but_o even_o he_o that_o swear_v assertiuè_fw-fr that_o formal_o affirm_v

conclude_v he_o that_o do_v this_o shall_v never_o be_v move_v out_o of_o which_o s._n i_o infer_v this_o therefore_o he_o that_o do_v shall_v be_v move_v if_o he_o that_o swear_v and_o that_o true_o shall_v stand_v in_o the_o tabernacle_n then_o he_o that_o forswear_v himself_o that_o elude_v all_o other_o by_o lie_v and_o dissemble_v and_o such_o trick_n as_o the_o heathen_a man_n do_v abhor_v
