injury_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o how_o much_o accessary_a must_v that_o church_n be_v to_o the_o miscarriage_n and_o damnation_n of_o such_o as_o perish_v for_o want_v of_o that_o knowledge_n and_o instruction_n the_o service_n and_o office_n of_o the_o church_n do_v contain_v and_o they_o may_v receive_v from_o it_o but_o suppose_v that_o end_n be_v lose_v and_o the_o people_n

into_o the_o consequence_n of_o what_o he_o say_v than_o he_o care_v to_o own_o he_o say_v at_o large_a their_o affection_n be_v not_o without_o the_o benefit_n of_o it_o but_o how_o the_o affection_n

they_o understand_v the_o cardinal_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o affection_n be_v not_o without_o benefit_n though_o the_o mind_n be_v not_o instruct_v but_o now_o it_o be_v to_o a_o demonstration_n plain_a in_o these_o man_n account_n that_o not_o only_o the_o benefit_n be_v as_o great_a as_o if_o people_n do_v understand_v but_o oftentimes_o great_a than_o if_o they_o do_v understand_v so_o

the_o common_a sense_n of_o mankind_n that_o i_o think_v a_o man_n may_v venture_v as_o roundly_o to_o assert_v that_o it_o be_v plain_a a_o man_n may_v see_v without_o light_n as_o that_o he_o may_v

a_o person_n affect_v or_o choose_v what_o he_o do_v not_o know_v yet_o without_o that_o the_o act_n can_v be_v 46._o term_v reasonable_a so_o cassiodore_n no_o body_n do_v any_o thing_n wise_o which_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v 3._o that_o in_o the_o act_n of_o religion_n the_o presence_n of_o the_o understanding_n be_v as_o much_o require_v as_o in_o any_o other_o rational_a act_n

if_o in_o other_o case_n the_o affection_n can_v move_v or_o be_v profit_v without_o the_o help_n of_o the_o understanding_n then_o as_o little_o can_v it_o be_v suppose_v in_o religion_n and_o the_o office_n belong_v to_o it_o where_o the_o understanding_n be_v sonus_n cordis_n 99_o as_o s._n austin_n call_v it_o apply_v it_o to_o our_o purpose_n the_o note_n of_o the_o heart_n now_o to_o say_v that_o the_o affection_n be_v not_o without_o profit_n though_o the_o mind_n be_v not_o instruct_v and_o that_o they_o that_o do_v not_o understand_v do_v pray_v with_o as_o little_a tediousness_n and_o as_o great_a affection_n and_o devotion_n as_o they_o that_o do_v understand_v not_o to_o repeat_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o stuff_n before_o cite_v be_v to_o say_v that_o the_o affection_n have_v no_o dependence_n in_o nature_n upon_o the_o understanding_n or_o that_o religion_n require_v less_o of_o we_o than_o any_o other_o reasonable_a act_n whatsoever_o and_o that_o what_o we_o can_v do_v

without_o understanding_n since_o whatever_o affection_n and_o devotion_n be_v pretend_v to_o without_o knowledge_n be_v 16._o like_o a_o vision_n of_o a_o man_n be_v own_o heart_n and_o not_o of_o
