david_n there_o be_v many_o true_a subject_n of_o david_n that_o go_v after_o absalon_n to_o take_v his_o part_n in_o their_o simplicity_n 15.11_o 2._o sam_n 15.11_o as_o the_o scripture_n record_v know_v nothing_o whereunto_o the_o treacherous_a plot_n of_o absalon_n do_v tend_v so_o no_o doubt_n charity_n move_v i_o to_o think_v that_o there_o be_v many_o in_o this_o kingdom_n honest_a man_n blind_v with_o some_o opinion_n of_o popery_n as_o in_o the_o question_n of_o the_o real_a presence_n or_o in_o the_o number_n of_o 7._o sacrament_n or_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o auricular_a confession_n or_o some_o such_o school_n question_n not_o know_v or_o believe_v all_o point_n of_o popery_n which_o indeed_o be_v the_o very_a mystery_n of_o iniquity_n of_o such_o i_o say_v that_o in_o the_o simplicity_n of_o their_o heart_n think_v of_o the_o pope_n doctrine_n no_o otherwise_o then_o david_n subject_n do_v of_o the_o rebellion_n of_o absalon_n i_o will_v not_o despair_v but_o very_o hope_v that_o such_o may_v be_v save_v notwithstanding_o their_o misperswasion_n in_o some_o point_n of_o religion_n which_o do_v not_o destroy_v any_o article_n of_o faith_n and_o christian_a belief_n but_o as_o for_o the_o rest_n of_o our_o wilful_a recusant_n papist_n which_o both_o err_v in_o the_o foundation_n &_o hate_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n reveal_v unto_o they_o which_o hate_v instruction_n and_o stop_v their_o ear_n against_o the_o word_n we_o offer_v unto_o they_o hold_v the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o pope_n judgement_n the_o universality_n of_o his_o jurisdiction_n and_o power_n to_o dispose_v of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n which_o believe_v free_a will_n to_o perform_v and_o to_o do_v the_o action_n of_o virtue_n without_o assistance_n of_o special_a grace_n which_o hold_v and_o maintain_v perfection_n of_o inherent_a righteousness_n satisfaction_n merit_n of_o condignity_n propitiatory_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n which_o give_v god_n honour_n to_o image_n maintain_v justification_n by_o work_n and_o such_o like_a of_o such_o i_o say_v i_o may_v without_o breach_n of_o charity_n affirm_v that_o if_o they_o so_o live_v and_o so_o die_v in_o the_o arm_n of_o the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n they_o can_v never_o be_v save_v object_n but_o the_o papist_n reply_v upon_o we_o and_o further_a object_n that_o if_o the_o case_n of_o recusant_n papist_n be_v such_o why_o then_o say_v they_o we_o must_v likewise_o condemn_v all_o our_o forefather_n to_o the_o pit_n of_o hell_n who_o hold_v none_o other_o but_o the_o same_o opinion_n we_o hold_v this_o day_n solut_a touch_v our_o forefather_n we_o both_o speak_v and_o think_v of_o they_o as_o charity_n lead_v we_o to_o think_v we_o take_v not_o upon_o we_o to_o know_v either_o the_o faith_n or_o repentance_n of_o they_o that_o die_v before_o our_o time_n and_o therefore_o we_o commit_v their_o judgement_n unto_o god_n we_o say_v with_o the_o apostle_n 2.19_o 2._o tim_n 2.19_o the_o foundation_n of_o god_n stand_v firm_a and_o sure_a have_v this_o seal_n the_o lord_n know_v who_o be_v he_o and_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n thus_o we_o believe_v of_o they_o all_o that_o such_o as_o hold_v the_o only_a foundation_n which_o be_v christ_n jesus_n in_o a_o true_a &_o lively_a faith_n be_v all_o save_v although_o they_o build_v upon_o this_o foundation_n chaff_n straw_n or_o wood_n and_o doubt_v not_o therefore_o 3.15_o 1._o cor_n 3.15_o but_o that_o many_o thousand_o of_o our_o ancestor_n even_o in_o those_o time_n of_o great_a blindness_n and_o corruption_n hold_v only_o the_o same_o foundation_n jesus_n christ_n be_v save_v and_o so_o die_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n notwithstanding_o they_o be_v mislead_v and_o carry_v away_o with_o sundry_a error_n and_o superstition_n for_o want_v of_o due_a knowledge_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o their_o pastor_n and_o leader_n shall_v have_v instruct_v they_o withal_o but_o for_o a_o further_a answer_n to_o this_o objection_n i_o say_v that_o the_o case_n of_o our_o recusant_n papist_n living_n at_o this_o day_n and_o the_o case_n of_o our_o forefather_n live_v in_o time_n of_o great_a corruption_n be_v not_o peer_n nor_o nothing_o like_o at_o all_o the_o disparison_n be_v this_o our_o forefather_n live_v in_o a_o time_n of_o great_a blindness_n wherein_o there_o be_v a_o general_a decay_n of_o learning_n wherein_o all_o good_a liberal_a art_n and_o learning_n be_v abolish_v the_o sky_n grow_v even_o dark_a with_o the_o misty_a fog_n of_o ignorance_n when_o their_o pastor_n and_o leader_n be_v not_o only_a sir_n john_n lack_n latin_v but_o s._n john_n lack_v honesty_n who_o can_v neither_o speak_v latin_a nor_o read_v english_a nor_o understand_v the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n nor_o any_o part_n of_o the_o scripture_n cloud_n without_o rain_n lantern_n without_o light_n salt_n without_o savour_n blind_a guide_n dumb_a dog_n that_o as_o one_o say_v seem_v to_o have_v their_o soul_n give_v they_o in_o steed_n of_o salt_n to_o keep_v they_o from_o stink_v and_o what_o marvel_v then_o if_o the_o people_n be_v lead_v by_o such_o blind_a guide_n become_v blind_v themselves_o and_o fall_v into_o sundry_a error_n but_o as_o for_o our_o recusant_n papist_n they_o live_v in_o the_o learn_a age_n that_o ever_o be_v since_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n when_o as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o knowledge_n of_o save_v truth_n be_v never_o so_o plentiful_a and_o flourish_a as_o now_o it_o be_v again_o the_o error_n of_o our_o forefather_n proceed_v of_o mere_a simplicity_n and_o want_n of_o judgement_n 18._o lib._n i._n de_fw-fr bap_n cap._n 18._o of_o who_o i_o may_v say_v the_o same_o that_o s._n augustine_n say_v of_o

be_v resolve_v otherwise_o they_o will_v have_v be_v of_o a_o other_o mind_n so_o very_o if_o our_o forefather_n who_o zeal_n be_v exceed_v great_a and_o a_o religious_a care_n to_o serve_v god_n have_v live_v in_o these_o latter_a time_n and_o have_v see_v the_o true_a ground_n of_o our_o religion_n they_o will_v most_o willing_o have_v embrace_v the_o same_o truth_n we_o profess_v this_o day_n many_o thousand_o of_o they_o in_o their_o life_n time_n desire_v to_o have_v see_v &_o hear_v those_o thing_n which_o we_o to_o our_o unspeakable_a comfort_n have_v both_o hear_v and_o see_v and_o howsoever_o many_o of_o our_o forefather_n be_v in_o some_o point_n deceive_v yet_o it_o be_v manifest_o to_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o worthy_a and_o best_a learned_a man_n in_o former_a time_n think_v no_o otherwise_o then_o we_o do_v in_o all_o substantial_a point_n of_o christian_n belief_n complain_v even_o as_o we_o do_v of_o the_o intolerable_a burden_n which_o the_o pope_n lay_v on_o they_o in_o those_o day_n wish_v the_o remove_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o we_o have_v remove_v but_o as_o touch_v the_o error_n of_o our_o obstinate_a and_o wilful_a recusant_n pap_n they_o proceed_v of_o mere_a obstinacy_n pertinacious_o defend_v most_o dangerous_a error_n he_o that_o be_v deceive_v juba_n cypri_n ad_fw-la juba_n and_o err_v of_o simplicity_n may_v be_v pardon_v but_o after_o the_o truth_n be_v once_o reveal_v who_o so_o nevertheless_o continue_v in_o his_o former_a error_n witting_o and_o willing_o sin_v without_o pardon_n of_o ignominy_n as_o be_v over_o bear_v by_o presumption_n and_o wilfulness_n and_o this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o very_a case_n of_o all_o our_o recusant_n papist_n this_o day_n so_o great_a a_o odds_n there_o be_v between_o simple_a error_n and_o wilful_a defence_n very_o for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o persuade_v that_o there_o be_v never_o a_o sober_a and_o learned_a papist_n in_o this_o land_n that_o can_v deny_v if_o he_o will_v true_o say_v and_o as_o he_o think_v in_o his_o own_o conscience_n but_o that_o we_o be_v come_v as_o near_o as_o possible_a we_o can_v to_o the_o church_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o catholic_a bishop_n which_o church_n be_v sound_a and_o perfect_a and_o spot_v with_o no_o kind_n of_o idolatry_n and_o have_v direct_v according_a to_o their_o custom_n and_o ordinance_n not_o only_o the_o doctrine_n this_o day_n profess_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o also_o the_o sacrament_n and_o form_n of_o common_a prayer_n and_o divine_a service_n establish_v here_o among_o we_o the_o psalm_n we_o sing_v be_v david_n the_o book_n we_o read_v be_v canonical_a the_o prayer_n we_o make_v be_v consonant_a to_o the_o rule_n and_o proportion_n of_o faith_n and_o true_a godliness_n and_o so_o it_o appear_v that_o our_o whole_a liturgy_n with_o great_a judgement_n and_o reasonable_a moderation_n be_v purposely_o so_o frame_v out_o of_o the_o
