antichrist_n 3.17_o 119.105_o the_o accusation_n be_v grievous_a wherewith_o our_o clergy_n be_v burden_v they_o be_v indire_v as_o the_o follower_n of_o antichrist_n their_o ministry_n be_v vouch_v to_o be_v from_o the_o pope_n their_o superiority_n which_o they_o have_v by_o order_n of_o this_o realm_n as_o lord_n spiritual_a and_o a_o necessary_a part_n of_o the_o high_a house_n of_o parliament_n in_o establish_v politic_a law_n for_o the_o profit_n of_o the_o common_a weal_n beside_o the_o jurisdiction_n episcopal_a which_o they_o have_v over_o their_o dioceses_n be_v there_o condemn_v as_o a_o thing_n in_o no_o wise_a tolerable_a by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o thing_n amass_v &_o dazzle_v the_o eye_n of_o we_o the_o simple_a and_o unlearned_a sort_n that_o we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o esteem_v of_o they_o or_o of_o ourselves_o if_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o hear_v they_o although_o they_o speak_v a_o truth_n more_o than_o the_o devil_n be_v to_o be_v suffer_v although_o he_o profess_v christ_n 4.41_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o we_o marvel_v why_o so_o short_a &_o pivyshe_v a_o thing_n be_v not_o by_o they_o answer_v that_o many_o simple-man_n which_o will_v well_o to_o god_n cause_v and_o be_v somewhat_o shake_v with_o this_o pamphlet_n may_v have_v better_o stay_v that_o they_o be_v not_o carry_v away_o with_o it_o therefore_o my_o humble_a suit_n be_v to_o the_o learned_a part_n in_o the_o name_v of_o christe_o and_o the_o behalf_n of_o his_o congregation_n that_o they_o will_v answer_v it_o &_o help_v we_o which_o be_v unlearned_a and_o here_o in_o i_o shall_v in_o god_n name_n and_o as_o they_o will_v answer_v at_o the_o last_o day_n exhort_v they_o to_o use_v simple_a &_o sincere_a deal_n and_o not_o to_o wring_v the_o scripture_n to_o serve_v their_o own_o turn_n or_o other_o man_n fantasy_n for_o if_o they_o do_o it_o will_v easy_o be_v spy_v and_o beside_o other_o inconuenice_n that_o will_v ensue_v thereof_o the_o people_n who_o they_o shall_v deceive_v thereby_o shall_v be_v their_o condemnation_n at_o that_o day_n cog_v not_o therefore_o nor_o force_v neither_o bombast_n it_o with_o rhetoric_n or_o man_n authoritiy_n to_o make_v a_o show_n but_o let_v the_o word_n of_o the_o eternal_a be_v judge_v between_o both_o which_o be_v gold_n and_o silver_n and_o which_o be_v dross_n and_o stubble_n which_o be_v corn_n and_o which_o be_v chaff_n call_v i_o beseech_v you_o to_o remembrance_n this_o say_n of_o a_o ancient_a father_n quam_fw-la sapiens_fw-la argumentatrix_fw-la

that_o the_o people_n know_v not_o for_o than_o it_o will_v be_v say_v that_o you_o dare_v not_o publish_v it_o but_o do_v it_o open_o that_o all_o the_o people_n may_v see_v that_o you_o stand_v

will_v say_v it_o be_v true_a but_o their_o tale_n be_v not_o they_o free_a as_o fire_n brand_v from_o place_n to_o place_v and_o set_v all_o the_o country_n on_o fire_n it_o be_v requisite_n also_o

you_o see_v what_o of_o duty_n they_o require_v and_o sure_o let_v i_o say_v with_o your_o honour_n patience_n what_o i_o think_v be_v it_o not_o a_o great_a discredyte_n to_o your_o lordship_n that_o such_o a_o scald_a trifle_a book_n can_v not_o be_v answer_v in_o this_o season_n it_o be_v very_o short_a you_o bear_v we_o in_o hand_n it_o be_v foolish_a join_v the_o folly_n of_o it_o with_o the_o brevity_n it_o may_v easy_o have_v be_v answer_v ere_o this_o if_o there_o have_v be_v take_v almost_o but_o for_o every_o leaf_n a_o month_n there_o be_v scarce_o so_o many_o leaf_n in_o it_o as_z there_o be_v month_n past_a since_o it_o come_v forth_o what_o remain_v then_o but_o that_o i_o renew_v my_o suit_n that_o herein_o with_o the_o consideration_n of_o chryst_n and_o his_o flock_n you_o will_v have_v regard_n to_o your_o own_o honour_n and_o creadyte_n that_o it_o be_v not_o further_o spread_v and_o say_v you_o can_v not_o answer_v it_o they_o do_v not_o satisfy_v themselves_o with_o pollytyque_a reason_n in_o that_o that_o some_o say_v even_o from_o your_o l._n that_o it_o be_v a_o subversion_n of_o a_o state_n it_o be_v a_o great_a trouble_v of_o a_o governance_n they_o say_v the_o question_n be_v not_o whether_o it_o be_v troublesome_a to_o bring_v that_o in_o which_o they_o will_v but_o whether_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n that_o those_o man_n say_v or_o no_o if_o that_o be_v once_o resolve_v then_o have_v they_o to_o stay_v themselves_o they_o be_v ready_a enough_o to_o object_v the_o difficulty_n of_o elyas_n time_n how_o hear_v a_o thing_n it_o be_v in_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o king_n &_o people_n to_o speak_v to_o they_o of_o the_o worship_n of_o one_o god_n which_o be_v now_o dote_v worshipper_n of_o their_o balims_n 18.17_o what_o a_o impossible_a thing_n it_o be_v to_o bring_v in_o the_o true_a priesthood_n of_o moses_n amongst_o a_o sort_n of_o idolater_n which_o have_v cast_v moses_n out_o of_o the_o temple_n 4.7_o they_o have_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n at_o the_o finger_n end_n and_o that_o the_o priest_n than_o say_v by_o what_o authority_n do_v thou_o this_o and_o again_o to_o pilate_n if_o thou_o let_v he_o go_v thou_o be_v not_o cesar_n his_o friend_n in_o his_o good_a and_o just_a purpose_n they_o can_v accuse_v he_o of_o treason_n of_o a_o conspiracy_n and_o for_o their_o own_o part_n ask_v he_o by_o what_o authority_n and_o so_o be_v it_o now_o say_v they_o with_o our_o bishops_n they_o go_v not_o to_o the_o scripture_n as_o christ_n will_v in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o scribe_n but_o they_o cry_v out_o against_o these_o poor_a man_n they_o be_v not_o the_o queen_n friend_n they_o make_v a_o trouble_n in_o a_o state_n these_n and_o such_o like_a be_v their_o word_n your_o honour_n have_v to_o consider_v upon_o the_o matter_n according_o and_o thus_o much_o to_o your_o honour_n wish_v your_o safety_n if_o it_o so_o please_v god_n without_o any_o shake_n and_o that_o your_o throne_n may_v stand_v for_o ever_o if_o they_o be_v from_o god_n which_o these_o man_n seem_v to_o call_v in_o doubt_n and_o i_o trust_v your_o lordship_n will_v show_v in_o vain_a &_o how_o vain_o they_o stand_v now_o to_o you_o my_o brethren_n which_o be_v of_o the_o inferior_a sort_n i_o have_v to_o desire_v you_o to_o cleave_v to_o the_o truth_n and_o be_v not_o move_v for_o what_o so_o ever_o if_o this_o be_v truth_n which_o our_o honourable_a clergy_n do_v now_o maintain_v
