as_o knowledge_n break_v in_o upon_o the_o world_n so_o man_n turn_v heretic_n apace_o if_o there_o be_v any_o know_a papist_n and_o it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a if_o there_o shall_v be_v none_o they_o be_v not_o behold_v to_o their_o church_n for_o it_o which_o deprive_v they_o of_o all_o the_o mean_n of_o knowledge_n for_o she_o will_v not_o allow_v they_o to_o believe_v their_o sense_n which_o be_v one_o way_n of_o know_v thing_n and_o the_o most_o certain_a we_o have_v and_o yet_o she_o command_v we_o to_o believe_v transubstantiation_n which_o no_o man_n can_v do_v who_o believe_v

the_o church_n of_o rome_n also_o forbid_v man_n the_o use_n of_o reason_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n will_v not_o allow_v man_n to_o judge_v for_o themselves_o nor_o to_o examine_v the_o reason_n
