life_n i_o have_v oft_o think_v what_o the_o reason_n be_v that_o among_o the_o papist_n if_o the_o life_n of_o their_o saint_n be_v describe_v in_o the_o high_a strain_n or_o their_o book_n have_v even_o unreasonable_a pretension_n of_o devotion_n even_o to_o the_o lay_n by_o of_o our_o understanding_n or_o to_o a_o kind_n of_o deification_n like_o barbansons_n benedictus_n de_fw-la

envious_a and_o ungodly_a part_n which_o be_v too_o great_a but_o the_o reason_n i_o perceive_v be_v that_o among_o the_o papist_n to_o be_v a_o religious_a man_n be_v to_o be_v a_o perfect_a who_o do_v more_o than_o be_v command_v he_o or_o be_v neccesary_a to_o salvation_n and_o so_o the_o people_n be_v teach_v that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v without_o be_v such_o themselves_o their_o spleen_n be_v not_o stir_v up_o against_o they_o as_o the_o trouble_n of_o their_o conscience_n peace_n but_o they_o be_v interest_v in_o their_o honour_n and_o be_v the_o honour_n of_o their_o way_n and_o church_n but_o with_o we_o man_n be_v teach_v that_o they_o must_v be_v religious_a themselves_o in_o sincerity_n if_o ever_o they_o will_v be_v save_v and_o that_o without_o holiness_n none_o shall_v see_v god_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o sincere_a if_o they_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v perfect_a and_o so_o they_o that_o will_v not_o be_v godly_a themselves_o do_v think_v that_o the_o life_n of_o the_o godly_a do_v condemn_v they_o i_o write_v not_o this_o to_o cast_v any_o disgrace_n on_o the_o true_a history_n of_o any_o holy_a man_n life_n nor_o shall_v it_o ever_o be_v my_o
