damn_a to_o all_o eternity_n first_o because_o we_o be_v guilty_a of_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o omnipotency_n of_o god_n in_o the_o business_n of_o the_o judgement_n eucharist_n second_o because_o we_o make_v god_n the_o author_n of_o sin._n three_o because_o we_o fasten_v despair_n upon_o christ_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n four_o because_o we_o be_v injurious_a to_o the_o virgin_n mary_n and_o the_o saint_n five_o because_o we_o oppose_v chastity_n sobriety_n mortification_n good_a work_n the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o every_o pious_a institution_n and_o sixthly_a because_o we_o be_v heretic_n or_o at_o least_o seven_o schismatic_n these_o be_v the_o imputation_n which_o i_o find_v in_o bellarmin_n becanus_n tirinus_n and_o stapleton_n all_o jesuit_n the_o great_a prop_n of_o your_o cause_n and_o the_o pillar_n of_o this_o cruel_a sentence_n nevertheless_o know_v mr._n prior_n that_o these_o accusation_n be_v no_o more_o than_o mere_a imagination_n and_o feign_a dream_n which_o have_v no_o real_a foundation_n as_o i_o shall_v with_o all_o possible_a brevity_n demonstrate_v in_o order_n both_o for_o your_o own_o and_o the_o sake_n of_o other_o and_o if_o these_o pretence_n of_o you_o be_v find_v to_o be_v groundless_a and_o unreasonable_a there_o need_v no_o more_o to_o convince_v you_o of_o your_o error_n and_o your_o straggle_a from_o truth_n and_o charity_n first_o therefore_o we_o be_v accuse_v as_o if_o we_o will_v limit_v divine_a omnipotence_n omnipotence_n and_o that_o we_o plain_o deny_v it_o while_o we_o assert_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o the_o bread_n to_o be_v transubstantiate_v into_o the_o body_n or_o that_o any_o body_n shall_v be_v actual_o in_o divers_a place_n or_o that_o accident_n

of_o the_o most_o infinite_a or_o in_o the_o least_o to_o call_v it_o in_o question_n we_o be_v ready_a with_o our_o blood_n to_o subscribe_v to_o the_o apostle_n creed_n in_o the_o first_o article_n whereof_o we_o profess_v to_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n almighty_n maker_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o this_o we_o general_o add_v for_o a_o conclusion_n to_o our_o ordinary_a prayer_n for_o thou_o be_v the_o kingdom_n the_o power_n and_o the_o glory_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o mat._n 6._o 13._o then_o also_o our_o saviour_n teach_v we_o that_o those_o thing_n be_v easy_a and_o

because_o according_a to_o the_o common_a axiom_n there_o be_v nothing_o in_o god_n which_o be_v not_o god_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o he_o to_o be_v limit_v or_o bound_v and_o this_o infinity_o we_o can_v as_o certain_o believe_v in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o substitute_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o room_n of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v certain_a and_o perspicuous_a from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o our_o body_n shall_v rise_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n our_o faith_n will_v be_v direct_v by_o the_o cynosure_n of_o divine_a will_n nor_o can_v we_o doubt_v but_o that_o god_n both_o can_v and_o will_v have_v do_v it_o have_v he_o so_o decree_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v as_o profitable_a and_o necessary_a for_o our_o salvation_n but_o as_o to_o this_o we_o find_v first_o that_o those_o sacred_a mystery_n which_o be_v distribute_v to_o we_o from_o the_o table_n of_o the_o

epistle_n by_o a_o reply_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o sole_a omnipotency_n of_o god_n be_v usual_o oppose_v to_o so_o many_o effectual_a argument_n by_o which_o we_o be_v constrain_v to_o assent_v to_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o ancient_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n as_o if_o god_n be_v bind_v to_o display_v his_o power_n to_o do_v whatever_o man_n fancy_n to_o themselves_o or_o that_o we_o must_v be_v say_v to_o blaspheme_n his_o omnipotence_n because_o we_o do_v not_o consent_v to_o their_o dream_n and_o miracle_n whereas_o if_o those_o new_a and_o unprofitable_a opinion_n be_v approve_v by_o the_o assent_n of_o the_o divine_a will_n we_o shall_v never_o meddle_v to_o contradict_v this_o argument_n take_v from_o god_n omnipotency_n but_o since_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o can_v be_v produce_v in_o their_o favour_n out_o of_o the_o testament_n of_o god_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a so_o many_o demonstration_n fight_v against_o they_o we_o dare_v pesume_v to_o descend_v to_o the_o examination_n of_o this_o argument_n not_o to_o limit_v the_o omnipotence_n of_o god_n but_o to_o show_v that_o those_o thing_n that_o you_o romanist_n will_v defend_v by_o virtue_n of_o that_o be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o fall_v not_o under_o the_o power_n of_o god_n not_o through_o impotency_n or_o want_n of_o strength_n but_o through_o the_o excellency_n and_o perfection_n of_o his_o power_n for_o though_o god_n be_v omnipotent_a yet_o he_o can_v neither_o walk_v nor_o sleep_n nor_o die_v for_o that_o these_o thing_n will_v contradict_v the_o perfection_n of_o his_o eslence_n in_o this_o sense_n the_o scripture_n testify_v that_o god_n can_v lie_v nor_o deny_v himself_o
