under_o and_o their_o desire_n to_o make_v proselyte_n make_v they_o outward_o religious_a there_o may_v be_v and_o no_o doubt_n be_v zealous_a and_o outward_o pious_a man_n in_o all_o religion_n in_o the_o world_n but_o that_o do_v not_o make_v every_o religion_n true_a and_o divine_a a_o outward_a show_n of_o piety_n be_v the_o only_a way_n of_o propagate_a any_o religion_n the_o devil_n himself_o can_v not_o propagate_v heathenism_n and_o idolatry_n but_o by_o the_o pretend_a zeal_n and_o piety_n and_o abstinence_n and_o mortification_n of_o apollonius_n tyaneus_n who_o yet_o by_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o whole_a christian_a world_n be_v no_o better_a than_o a_o wizard_n and_o conjurer_n i_o make_v no_o application_n to_o any_o particular_a priest_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o man_n may_v be_v in_o great_a error_n and_o be_v very_o zealous_a for_o their_o error_n and_o seem_o very_a pious_a in_o their_o zeal_n and_o when_o their_o error_n be_v not_o very_o wilful_a and_o destroy_v not_o the_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n for_o aught_o i_o know_v they_o may_v find_v mercy_n in_o the_o day_n of_o our_o lord_n i_o grant_v there_o be_v a_o great_a show_n of_o outward_a piety_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n very_o dazzle_v and_o very_a move_n but_o the_o great_a danger_n lie_v here_o that_o the_o worship_n they_o give_v to_o god_n with_o one_o hand_n they_o strike_v and_o pull_v down_o with_o the_o other_o i_o know_v too_o well_o the_o practice_n of_o their_o church_n and_o a_o heathen_a that_o shall_v come_v into_o their_o temple_n beyond_o sea_n will_v very_o believe_v that_o they_o worship_v a_o multiplicity_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o he_o whatever_o their_o pretension_n may_v be_v to_o the_o contrary_a it_o be_v not_o what_o people_n say_v so_o much_o as_o what_o they_o do_v that_o god_n take_v notice_n of_o and_o though_o you_o shall_v ten_o thousand_o time_n protest_v that_o you_o worship_n and_o adore_v god_n alone_o yet_o while_o god_n see_v you_o adore_v the_o virgin_n mary_n with_o as_o great_a zeal_n and_o reverence_n as_o you_o do_v he_o pray_v to_o she_o often_o than_o you_o do_v to_o he_o make_v as_o many_o bow_n to_o she_o and_o other_o saint_n as_o you_o do_v to_o he_o and_o other_o thing_n of_o that_o nature_n how_o can_v he_o believe_v you_o religion_n be_v a_o thing_n that_o will_v not_o bear_v jest_n and_o hypocrisy_n god_n will_v not_o be_v put_v off_o with_o contradiction_n between_o speech_n and_o practice_n madam_n i_o do_v from_o my_o heart_n pity_v you_o and_o as_o it_o may_v be_v the_o weakness_n of_o your_o judgement_n that_o may_v lead_v you_o into_o this_o erroneous_a church_n so_o i_o beseech_v you_o for_o christ_n sake_n to_o return_v to_o the_o church_n you_o have_v rash_o leave_v where_o you_o can_v run_v a_o hazard_n if_o you_o will_v but_o follow_v the_o plain_a doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n beside_o which_o we_o preach_v nothing_o and_o enjoin_v

your_o eye_n that_o you_o may_v see_v and_o fear_v time_n be_v when_o you_o will_v have_v believe_v we_o as_o much_o as_o you_o do_v now_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n it_o be_v strange_a that_o now_o they_o shall_v speak_v nothing_o but_o truth_n and_o we_o nothing_o but_o falsehood_n do_v you_o think_v we_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o scripture_n and_o father_n and_o antiquity_n as_o well_o as_o they_o and_o can_v we_o all_o be_v so_o besot_v with_o interest_n and_o pason_a that_o none_o of_o we_o shall_v yield_v to_o the_o dictate_v of_o their_o church_n if_o

many_o man_n among_o we_o that_o be_v great_a lover_n of_o peace_n and_o will_v be_v glad_a that_o the_o whole_a christian_a world_n be_v agree_v and_o will_v these_o man_n stand_v out_o against_o that_o union_n if_o it_o can_v be_v do_v with_o a_o safe_a conscience_n certain_o we_o have_v man_n as_o learned_a among_o we_o as_o ever_o the_o sun_n do_v shine_v upon_o nay_o the_o church_n of_o

with_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n if_o they_o do_v not_o see_v plain_o that_o there_o be_v death_n in_o that_o pot_n and_o that_o the_o error_n in_o that_o church_n can_v be_v subscribe_v to_o without_o hazard_v the_o welfare_n of_o their_o soul_n i_o will_v but_o use_v your_o own_o argument_n when_o you_o go_v over_o to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o be_v persuade_v by_o the_o

be_v not_o in_o a_o safe_a way_n than_o that_o church_n which_o for_o all_o the_o new_a doctrine_n they_o have_v add_v to_o the_o old_a creed_n be_v force_v to_o run_v to_o the_o break_a cistern_n of_o tradition_n and_o i_o know_v not_o what_o father_n who_o write_n they_o know_v not_o whether_o they_o be_v genuine_a or_o no_o as_o you_o be_v now_o you_o live_v in_o wilful_a opposition_n to_o the_o doctrine_n and_o precept_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o o_o remember_v what_o st._n paul_n do_v say_v 2_o thess._n 1._o 7_o 8._o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n wiere_v long_o come_v down_o from_o
