say_v he_o but_o they_o shall_v be_v judge_v of_o their_o own_o mouth_n for_o this_o gift_n be_v give_fw-ge to_o all_o the_o world_n and_o they_o by_o their_o unbelefe_n and_o mistrust_n of_o god_n

can_v none_o otherwise_o be_v god_n but_o away_o with_o this_o judge_n &_o false_a estemer_n of_o thing_n i_o mean_v reason_n blind_a reason_n where_o as_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_o able_a to_o

that_o man_n see_v with_o eye_n &_o speak_v &_o laugh_v with_o mouth_n and_o yet_o we_o stand_v so_o high_a in_o our_o own_o conceit_n that_o we_o will_v speak_v &_o dispute_v of_o god_n and_o of_o

yet_o i_o will_v take_v upon_o i_o to_o know_v and_o geve_v sentence_n of_o that_o whereof_o i_o know_v nothing_o at_o all_o &_o whereof_o god_n only_o ought_v to_o pronounce_v yet_o the_o world_n set_v much_o by_o this_o foolishness_n &_o the_o turk_n &_o the_o jew_n mock_v we_o christian_n as_o half_a mad_a because_o we_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v god_n but_o if_o this_o be_v wisdom_n god_n who_o may_v not_o pronounce_v &_o think_v with_o the_o turk_n there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n christ_n be_v not_o god_n but_o when_o scripture_n and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v put_v forth_o this_o think_v and_o pronounce_v be_v nothing_o worth_a but_o we_o must_v speak_v or_o at_o least_o wise_a stammer_v of_o those_o thing_n as_o the_o scripture_n do_v point_v we_o that_o be_v that_o christ_n be_v very_a god_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v very_a god_n &_o yet_o that_o there_o be_v not_o three_o god_n neither_o three_o nature_n or_o substance_n as_o we_o number_v three_o son_n three_o man_n three_o angel_n or_o three_o window_n for_o so_o be_v not_o god_n distinct_a in_o his_o substance_n but_o there_o be_v one_o only_a substance_n of_o god_n wherefore_o although_o there_o be_v three_o person_n god_n the_o father_n &_o god_n the_o son_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o in_o substance_n they_o can_v not_o be_v divide_v or_o discern_v for_o there_o be_v only_o one_o god_n consist_v of_o one_o indivisible_a substance_n 1_o for_o so_o say_v paul_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o image_n of_o the_o unuisible_a god_n the_o first_o beget_v of_o all_o creature_n for_o by_o he_o be_v all_o thing_n make_v that_o be_v in_o heaven_n or_o in_o earth_n visible_a and_o invisible_a whether_o they_o be_v throne_n or_o domination_n or_o principat_n or_o potestat_n
