subject_a unto_o he_o as_o to_o the_o only_a vicar_n of_o christ_n in_o earth_n as_o to_o the_o universal_a bishop_n of_o the_o church_n as_o to_o he_o which_o can_v err_v in_o decre_v doctrine_n of_o

sure_a and_o firm_a rule_n rule_n note_v a_o certain_a sure_a rule_n that_o these_o outward_a submission_n of_o the_o body_n do_v then_o pertain_v unto_o idolatry_n when_o as_o they_o be_v testimony_n of_o the_o mind_n attribute_v more_o unto_o a_o creature_n than_o be_v mete_v or_o which_o be_v only_o proper_a unto_o god_n for_o they_o be_v not_o refer_v unto_o god_n himself_o or_o to_o the_o obedience_n of_o his_o commandment_n but_o to_o vain_a form_n &_o show_n which_o we_o have_v feign_v unto_o ourselves_o and_o conceive_v in_o our_o mind_n hereby_o may_v we_o also_o gather_v that_o the_o invocation_n of_o saint_n which_o the_o papist_n use_v idolatry_n invocation_n of_o the_o dead_a pertain_v to_o idolatry_n be_v idolatrous_a for_o they_o geve_v unto_o saint_n that_o which_o long_v only_o unto_o god_n name_o that_o they_o be_v absent_a shall_v hear_v our_o prayer_n or_o that_o they_o can_v be_v present_a at_o one_o time_n either_o every_o where_o or_o else_o in_o many_o place_n thereby_o to_o succour_v those_o which_o call_v upon_o their_o name_n in_o diverse_a part_n of_o the_o world_n augustine_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o dardanus_n dare_v not_o affirm_v that_o

this_o unto_o the_o angel_n that_o they_o can_v at_o one_o time_n be_v in_o diverse_a place_n affirm_v that_o that_o sole_o be_v to_o be_v grant_v unto_o the_o only_a nature_n of_o god_n but_o they_o which_o do_v call_v upon_o saint_n they_o believe_v that_o they_o do_v hear_v they_o and_o that_o they_o be_v present_a with_o they_o which_o without_o doubt_n be_v to_o attribute_v more_o unto_o they_o than_o the_o strength_n and_o order_n of_o a_o nature_n create_v can_v suffer_v but_o here_o they_o trifle_v and_o say_v that_o they_o do_v not_o think_v so_o but_o that_o god_n himself_o which_o hear_v their_o prayer_n do_v open_a unto_o the_o saint_n what_o be_v require_v of_o they_o but_o thus_o i_o answer_v that_o they_o deceive_v both_o themselves_o and_o also_o others_z for_o they_o know_v not_o whether_o god_n will_v show_v unto_o the_o saint_n their_o vow_n or_o prayer_n wherefore_o the_o prayer_n which_o they_o pour_v out_o can_v lean_v unto_o faith_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v certain_a and_o without_o doubt_n they_o bring_v also_o a_o feign_a lie_n of_o the_o glass_n as_o they_o say_v of_o the_o divine_a essense_n wherein_o the_o saint_n behold_v all_o thing_n essence_n a_o feign_a lie_n of_o the_o papist_n of_o a_o glass_n of_o the_o divine_a essence_n but_o this_o their_o feign_v have_v no_o foundation_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n furthermore_o see_v they_o will_v needs_o have_v it_o so_o admit_v it_o be_v as_o they_o fain_v it_o to_o be_v yet_o shall_v they_o be_v compel_v to_o grant_n that_o that_o their_o glass_n have_v not_o a_o natural_a represent_v but_o a_o voluntarye_a so_o that_o there_o the_o saint_n can_v see_v that_o only_o which_o god_n will_v have_v see_v otherwise_o without_o any_o exception_n the_o saint_n may_v there_o see_v all_o thing_n which_o be_v both_o false_a and_o also_o most_o manifestlye_o resist_v the_o holy_a scripture_n because_o of_o that_o day_n say_v the_o lord_n neither_o do_v the_o angel_n know_v which_o yet_o do_v see_v the_o face_n of_o the_o father_n moreover_o the_o papist_n do_v not_o after_o this_o manner_n call_v upon_o saint_n for_o if_o they_o do_v they_o shall_v say_v thus_o cause_v o_o god_n that_o this_o or_o that_o saint_n may_v know_v those_o thing_n which_o i_o desire_v of_o he_o and_o that_o he_o may_v be_v with_o i_o and_o grant_v i_o that_o which_o i_o desire_v but_o they_o do_v clean_o contrarilye_o o_o saint_n peter_n say_v they_o saint_n paul_n pray_v for_o i_o bring_v this_o or_o that_o to_o pass_v for_o i_o wherefore_o they_o think_v that_o the_o saint_n do_v altogether_o hear_v &_o understand_v their_o voice_n which_o thing_n if_o they_o think_v not_o then_o be_v their_o do_n utter_o folyshe_a they_o declare_v also_o by_o their_o title_n &_o addition_n which_o they_o ascribe_v unto_o the_o bless_v virgin_n to_o the_o cross_n and_o other_o creature_n convenient_a the_o papist_n attribute_v more_o unto_o creature_n than_o be_v convenient_a how_o far_o more_o worthy_a they_o esteem_v and_o judge_v of_o they_o than_o their_o nature_n can_v suffer_v neither_o be_v they_o afeard_a as_o i_o have_v before_o declare_v when_o i_o entreat_v of_o the_o

and_o the_o excercise_n of_o the_o body_n have_v indeed_o some_o profit_n but_o not_o so_o great_a but_o we_o must_v note_v that_o paul_n speak_v not_o of_o fast_v and_o excercise_n of_o the_o body_n
