which_o epistle_n have_v as_o much_o gall_n in_o they_o as_o the_o man_n dispitefull_a stomach_n can_v utter_v i_o shall_v pray_v you_o to_o have_v patience_n with_o i_o if_o i_o run_v over_o brief_o

after_o the_o entrance_n of_o his_o epistle_n initio_fw-la innocency_n say_v he_o which_o though_o naked_a be_v never_o ashamed_a have_v charge_v i_o to_o manifest_v myself_o unto_o your_o highness_n and_o together_o with_o my_o adversary_n to_o appeal_v unto_o your_o incomparable_a wisdom_n which_o i_o do_v in_o so_o constant_a assurance_n of_o a_o upright_a conscience_n as_o that_o i_o shall_v

as_o also_o between_o a_o minister_n of_o simple_a truth_n and_o a_o profess_a equivocator_n do_v offer_v unto_o i_o here_o you_o see_v he_o vaunt_v of_o sundry_a point_n as_o first_o of_o his_o

forth_o in_o sundry_a several_a part_n of_o this_o answer_n i_o have_v be_v force_v to_o make_v a_o special_a chapter_n thereof_o which_o be_v the_o six_o of_o this_o ensure_a work_n where_o as_o also_o in_o the_o 4._o paragraph_n of_o the_o 2._o chapter_n and_o else_o where_o the_o reader_n shall_v find_v such_o store_n of_o testimony_n against_o the_o uprightness_n of_o this_o man_n conscience_n as_o i_o dare_v assure_v myself_o he_o will_v lose_v with_o indifferent_a man_n the_o constant_a assurance_n of_o honesty_n howsoever_o in_o his_o own_o opinion_n he_o may_v hold_v the_o same_o assurance_n for_o other_o matter_n 9_o three_o he_o say_v to_o his_o majesty_n he_o do_v willing_o remit_v that_o just_a advantage_n which_o the_o difference_n of_o a_o legitimate_a and_o

the_o sense_n of_o his_o word_n for_o i_o imagine_v that_o the_o minister_n will_v m._n say_v that_o he_o be_v ready_a and_o press_v to_o conform_v himself_o to_o any_o thing_n that_o the_o state_n or_o prince_n shall_v appoint_v he_o as_o well_o in_o religion_n as_o in_o other_o matter_n whatsoever_o and_o that_o therein_o consist_v his_o uprightness_n of_o conscience_n to_o wit_n to_o be_v conformable_a and_o for_o that_o his_o adversary_n show_v himself_o perhaps_o more_o scrupulous_a and_o timorous_a in_o certain_a point_n concern_v his_o soul_n or_o conscience_n and_o not_o so_o conformable_a therefore_o he_o call_v he_o suspicious_o degenerate_a and_o no_o legitimate_a and_o conformable_a subject_n which_o whither_o it_o tend_v and_o towards_o what_o gate_n of_o atheism_n or_o herodianisme_n every_o man_n that_o have_v judgement_n and_o conscience_n in_o deed_n will_v easy_o discern_v 10._o but_o of_o all_o the_o rest_n the_o four_o point_n be_v the_o most_o ridiculous_a wherein_o he_o intitule_v himself_o a_o minister_n of_o simple_a truth_n and_o his_o adversary_n a_o profess_a equivocator_n whereas_o i_o have_v show_v in_o the_o 7._o and_o 12._o chapter_n of_o this_o answer_n first_o that_o such_o as_o grant_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o equivocation_n in_o some_o limit_a case_n be_v far_o more_o severe_a &_o rigorous_a against_o all_o kind_n of_o lie_v in_o

to_o the_o former_a clause_n touch_v his_o l._n desire_n to_o have_v the_o matter_n define_v and_o declare_v his_o divine_a might_n easy_o have_v inform_v he_o that_o among_o catholic_a people_n the_o
