to_o we_o in_o his_o opinion_n shall_v be_v very_o small_a both_o touch_v us._n matter_n of_o religion_n as_o also_o of_o state_n for_o in_o religion_n he_o make_v his_o account_n that_o they_o shall_v have_v nothing_o more_o they_o now_o they_o have_v except_o only_o certain_a sacrament_n image_n and_o ceremony_n which_o he_o call_v representation_n all_o which_o he_o esteem_v of_o small_a

that_o it_o do_v not_o always_o show_v forth_o present_o his_o sensible_a effect_n next_o after_o this_o he_o declare_v how_o that_o by_o us._n yield_v to_o we_o they_o shall_v not_o only_o not_o receive_v gain_n but_o also_o great_a hurt_n &_o that_o in_o double_a manner_n first_o in_o religion_n wherein_o among_o other_o thing_n they_o shall_v be_v bind_v to_o coafession_n &_o penance_n which_o thing_n say_v he_o be_v burdensome_a and_o they_o abhor_v from_o man_n nature_n then_o in_o state_n for_o that_o by_o this_o mean_a they_o shall_v come_v under_o the_o government_n of_o the_o byshope_n of_o rome_n which_o he_o esteme_v intolerable_a add_v further_a that_o this_o only_a reason_n of_o state_n hold_v many_o of_o their_o side_n from_o come_v to_o we_o who_o otherwise_o in_o

glorious_a than_o they_o have_v be_v since_o the_o suppression_n thereof_o wherefore_o if_o this_o reason_n only_o do_v stay_v so_o many_o from_o we_o as_o m._n buny_n affirm_v it_o be_v very_o like_v we_o shall_v have_v the_o great_a part_n short_o when_o god_n shall_v open_v their_o understanding_n in_o a_o matter_n that_o in_o itself_o be_v so_o plain_a and_o palpable_a this_o be_v do_v he_o come_v to_o show_v the_o commodity_n that_o we_o shall_v receive_v by_o join_v with_o they_o and_o those_o also_o after_o his_o manner_n he_o they_o make_v of_o two_o sort_n first_o in_o religion_n and_o they_o in_o our_o civil_a state_n in_o religion_n say_v he_o we_o shall_v first_o receive_v the_o free_a use_n of_o holy_a seripture_n as_o though_o among_o we_o now_o there_o be_v no_o use_n
