or_o present_a socinianism_n the_o socinianism_n of_o faustus_n socinus_n for_o the_o unity_n of_o god_n or_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n can_v never_o be_v defend_v by_o these_o man_n who_o

doctrine_n make_v a_o coalition_n or_o closure_n in_o the_o end_n with_o faustus_n socinus_n and_o the_o present_a socinianism_n if_o it_o be_v not_o already_o his_o opinion_n and_o aim_n as_o for_o

bring_v off_o from_o the_o imputation_n of_o be_v a_o socinian_n according_a to_o the_o model_n of_o faustus_n socinus_n and_o the_o present_a socinian_o for_o it_o be_v true_a he_o hold_v three_o

and_o it_o be_v no_o less_o true_a that_o on_o these_o two_o principle_n or_o in_o consequence_n of_o these_o two_o principle_n he_o can_v never_o defend_v the_o unity_n of_o god_n but_o on_o the_o

attend_v to_o consequence_n which_o be_v mere_a brat_n of_o reason_n he_o may_v be_v as_o clear_v of_o any_o design_n to_o introduce_v the_o scheme_n of_o faustus_n socinus_n notwithstanding_o these_o

only_o that_o it_o be_v not_o change_v by_o the_o blessing_n into_o what_o now_o he_o call_v it_o namely_o his_o body_n the_o papist_n believe_v it_o be_v bread_n that_o christ_n take_v but_o because_o when_o he_o have_v brake_n and_o bless_v it_o he_o call_v it_o his_o body_n they_o conclude_v that_o by_o the_o blessing_n it_o be_v change_v into_o the_o substance_n of_o flesh_n but_o without_o change_n of_o the_o accident_n i_o say_v now_o though_o sense_n may_v interpret_v the_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n to_o the_o apostle_n who_o see_v it_o and_o taste_v it_o yet_o to_o
