doctrine_n but_o we_o believe_v not_o because_o any_o church_n pope_n or_o doctor_n say_v so_o but_o because_o we_o ourselves_o judge_v by_o scripture_n it_o be_v so_o for_o if_o a_o papist_n do_v say_v i_o do_v not_o believe_v this_o be_v a_o reveal_v truth_n because_o the_o pope_n and_o church_n say_v it_o be_v but_o because_o i_o find_v by_o scripture_n it_o be_v he_o will_v be_v no_o papist_n believe_v then_o whatever_o doctrine_n you_o will_v either_o popery_n judaisme_n protestancy_n arianism_n or_o what_o else_o you_o please_v provide_v you_o judge_v by_o scripture_n it_o be_v

be_v a_o true_a child_n of_o the_o reformation_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o be_v call_v a_o reformation_n and_o why_o we_o separate_v from_o they_o because_o they_o will_v have_v we_o take_v for_o our_o rule_n of_o faith_n scripture_n as_o interpret_v by_o they_o and_o believe_v not_o what_o we_o judge_v to_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o scripture_n but_o what_o they_o judge_v and_o this_o be_v also_o the_o reason_n why_o presbyterian_o be_v jealous_a with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n why_o anabaptis●s_n forsake_v presbyterian_o why_o these_o be_v forsake_v by_o quaker_n

for_o whereas_o our_o rule_n of_o faith_n be_v no_o church_n congregation_n or_o man_n but_o scripture_n as_o each_o one_o understand_v it_o it_o follow_v that_o by_o our_o principle_n every_o one_o
