his_o own_o particular_a guess_n which_o make_v not_o faith_n but_o opinion_n and_o fancy_n for_o i_o will_v ask_v sir_n francis_n or_o any_o such_o man_n as_o he_o be_v that_o determine_v so_o resolute_o that_o his_o only_o religion_n among_o so_o many_o other_o as_o be_v extant_a at_o this_o day_n be_v true_a and_o all_o other_o false_a whereon_o do_v he_o ground_n his_o certainty_n two_o only_a mean_n can_v sir_n francis_n have_v to_o guide_v himself_o in_o this_o case_n first_o that_o he_o have_v receyve_v his_o doctrine_n of_o such_o or_o such_o person_n preacher_n minister_n or_o

himself_o his_o whole_a belief_n express_o in_o scripture_n which_o be_v much_o for_o a_o man_n of_o sir_n francis_n occupation_n to_o do_v &_o then_o he_o must_v be_v able_a to_o judge_v of_o many_o other_o point_n belong_v to_o the_o same_o as_o namely_o that_o the_o book_n be_v sure_o scripture_n that_o he_o read_v and_o then_o that_o the_o translation_n which_o he_o use_v be_v true_o make_v

a_o man_n of_o sir_n francis_n learning_n and_o much_o more_o for_o other_o that_o know_v less_o than_o he_o yea_o and_o when_o all_o be_v do_v if_o he_o have_v all_o these_o help_v needful_a for_o such_o a_o matter_n as_o he_o have_v not_o yet_o be_v it_o but_o a_o private_a man_n opinion_n and_o consequent_o his_o faith_n shall_v be_v ground_v but_o upon_o his_o own_o particular_a judgement_n
