of_o all_o i_o admire_v to_o see_v any_o person_n stick_v to_o the_o common_a prayer_n book_n or_o to_o that_o church_n as_o if_o it_o be_v the_o true_a catholic_n how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o

if_o antichrist_n reign_n be_v come_v or_o the_o turk_n have_v possess_v the_o whole_a world_n than_o it_o may_v be_v think_v that_o the_o church_n flee_v to_o the_o wilderness_n and_o become_v almost_o invisible_a but_o when_o through_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n we_o see_v christianity_n flourish_v not_o only_o in_o europe_n but_o in_o all_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n how_o be_v it_o credible_a that_o god_n shall_v permit_v the_o true_a and_o pure_a exercise_n of_o catholic_n religion_n to_o be_v invisible_a 6_o therefore_o i_o judge_v it_o a_o duty_n of_o conscience_n and_o charity_n to_o warn_v all_o protestant_n that_o they_o may_v be_v please_v to_o reflect_v upon_o the_o author_n and_o first_o apostle_n of_o their_o reformation_n be_v it_o credible_a that_o god_n

therefore_o the_o pope_n authority_n be_v tread_v under_o foot_n must_v king_n loose_v their_o crown_n because_o some_o courtier_n be_v lewd_a if_o luther_n have_v be_v appoint_v to_o preach_v for_o
