small_a matter_n for_o 1._o he_o have_v drop_v the_o defence_n of_o his_o double_a character_n his_o representation_n and_o misrepresentation_n for_o instead_o of_o go_v on_o with_o his_o adversary_n in_o those_o thirty_o seven_o point_n with_o which_o himself_o lead_v the_o way_n he_o do_v nothing_o but_o nibble_n about_o three_o or_o four_o of_o they_o and_o that_o without_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o what_o be_v say_v by_o his_o adversary_n to_o fix_v the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o controversy_n even_o about_o they_o he_o have_v indeed_o throw_v about_o four_o loose_a general_a exception_n among_o the_o thirty_o seven_o chapter_n in_o which_o the_o answerer_n represent_v the_o several_a doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o he_o have_v not_o with_o any_o one_o of_o these_o exception_n come_v up_o fair_o to_o what_o the_o answerer_n have_v say_v upon_o any_o one_o particular_a point_n and_o therefore_o i_o add_v 2._o that_o for_o any_o thing_n our_o representer_n have_v do_v to_o show_v the_o contrary_a the_o answerer_n have_v true_o represent_v the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o then_o we_o have_v great_a encouragement_n to_o turn_v papist_n since_o the_o representer_n tell_v we_o that_o if_o the_o answerer_n have_v true_o represent_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n he_o the_o representer_n will_v as_o soon_o be_v a_o turk_n as_o a_o papist_n 3._o he_o have_v absolute_o drop_v the_o defence_n of_o all_o his_o own_o argument_n not_o so_o much_o as_o pretend_v to_o show_v where_o the_o answer_n go_v upon_o a_o wrong_a state_n of_o the_o question_n no_o nor_o try_v to_o reinforce_v his_o argument_n where_o the_o state_n of_o the_o controversy_n be_v agree_v upon_o on_o both_o side_n so_o that_o for_o aught_o i_o can_v see_v the_o representer_n fall_v sick_a of_o his_o thirty_o seven_o chapter_n all_o at_o once_o both_o as_o to_o matter_n of_o representation_n and_o dispute_n and_o this_o i_o think_v be_v pretty_a well_o for_o the_o first_o reply_n the_o second_o answer_n to_o the_o representer_n be_v a_o reply_n to_o his_o reflection_n but_o we_o be_v to_o thank_v the_o reflection_n for_o one_o good_a thing_n and_o that_o be_v for_o the_o answer_n which_o they_o draw_v from_o another_o learned_a hand_n under_o the_o title_n of_o a_o papist_n not_o misrepresent_v by_o protestant_n in_o which_o i_o shall_v make_v bold_a to_o leave_v out_o several_a material_a point_n which_o the_o answerer_n offer_v too_o consideration_n and_o take_v notice_n of_o no_o more_o than_o what_o i_o think_v may_v serve_v to_o show_v with_o what_o sincerity_n on_o the_o one_o side_n and_o insincerity_n on_o the_o other_o this_o controversy_n have_v be_v manage_v wherefore_o 1._o whereas_o the_o representer_n choose_v to_o justify_v his_o complaint_n of_o misrepresentation_n not_o by_o take_v the_o first_o answerer_n representation_n into_o examination_n but_o by_o refer_v we_o to_o other_o book_n and_o to_o sutcliff_n sharp_a censure_n of_o popery_n the_o second_o answerer_n consider_v that_o the_o representer_n call_v the_o

of_o misrepresentation_n for_o say_v that_o we_o can_v yield_v to_o that_o popery_n which_o the_o representer_n himself_o allow_v without_o betray_v the_o truth_n etc._n etc._n 4._o a_o papist_n not_o
