Hereunto is added an answere to such reasons as the popish recusants alledge, why they will not come to our churches.

rome_n be_v too_o too_o foolish_a when_o thus_o they_o reason_n this_o religion_n be_v old_a and_o have_v have_v approbation_n of_o the_o great_a number_n for_o some_o hundredes_o of_o year_n
