to_o it_o but_o by_o that_o time_n thou_o have_v do_v thou_o either_o forget_v what_o to_o answer_v or_o else_o thou_o suppose_v that_o the_o bare_a writing_n of_o it_o down_o be_v sufficient_a for_o i_o query_n whether_o there_o be_v any_o light_n in_o man_n but_o what_o be_v seat_v in_o the_o understanding_n if_o i_o have_v query_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o light_n in_o man_n but_o what_o be_v seat_v in_o the_o heel_n the_o answer_v that_o thou_o give_v be_v as_o satisfactory_a to_o the_o one_o as_o to_o the_o other_o but_o instead_o of_o answer_v thou_o tell_v i_o that_o christ_n lighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n about_o which_o thou_o and_o i_o differ_v not_o but_o where_o this_o light_n be_v seat_v whether_o in_o the_o understanding_n or_o no_o &_o this_o thou_o may_v have_v see_v if_o thou_o have_v not_o be_v a_o blind_a as_o well_o as_o a_o false_a prophet_n to_o the_o two_o first_o part_n of_o the_o last_o query_n thou_o deal_v as_o to_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o that_o be_v like_a to_o a_o man_n that_o shall_v engage_v to_o meet_v his_o enemy_n in_o the_o field_n shall_v keep_v his_o appoint_a hour_n and_o when_o his_o enemy_n come_v repeat_v the_o quarrel_n and_o then_o run_v away_o so_o thou_o engage_v to_o answer_v my_o query_n the_o which_o thou_o repeast_o and_o then_o run_v away_o from_o give_v a_o answer_n for_o the_o query_n be_v whether_o its_o necessary_a to_o believe_v any_o that_o shall_v say_v they_o have_v in_o they_o something_o above_o nature_n or_o supernatural_a unless_o they_o can_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o have_v in_o they_o something_o that_o can_v be_v find_v in_o a_o natural_a man_n thy_o answer_n be_v that_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o i_o to_o know_v myself_o and_o then_o like_o one_o far_o more_o fit_a to_o rail_v then_o to_o answer_v accuse_v i_o with_o evil_a deed_n &_o a_o corrupt_a heart_n one_o who_o thou_o never_o see_v or_o so_o much_o as_o hear_v the_o least_o jealousy_n of_o the_o least_o guilt_n of_o the_o least_o crime_n against_o i_o so_o although_o thy_o boasting_n be_v as_o great_a as_o any_o false_a prophet_n yet_o thou_o have_v as_o few_o brain_n as_o the_o least_o of_o they_o howsoever_o thou_o have_v blunder_v up_o a_o answer_n to_o the_o two_o last_o part_n of_o this_o last_o query_n and_o that_o be_v that_o the_o jesuit_n have_v neither_o former_a nor_o latter_a lay_v down_o their_o life_n for_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n &_o yet_o thou_o say_v they_o do_v it_o out_o of_o a_o fiery_a zeal_n the_o which_o be_v a_o contradiction_n to_o your_o denial_n for_o zeal_n argue_v they_o do_v believe_v it_o true_a for_o there_o be_v no_o zeal_n but_o what_o be_v ground_v upon_o a_o confidence_n and_o though_o i_o have_v prove_v you_o quake_a prophet_n false_a yet_o if_o you_o shall_v the_o which_o i_o be_o confident_a you_o never_o will_v lay_v down_o your_o life_n for_o your_o opinion_n i_o can_v not_o but_o believe_v that_o you_o do_v conceive_v that_o true_a you_o die_v for_o and_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v the_o contrary_a and_o yet_o say_v you_o do_v it_o out_o of_o fiery_a zeal_n i_o contradict_v myself_o as_o you_o do_v last_o thou_o say_v thou_o be_v opposite_a to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n yet_o thou_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o in_o foundation_n the_o which_o be_v no_o more_o than_o mere_a imagination_n and_o in_o many_o grand_a error_n as_o assume_v a_o infallible_a spirit_n and_o damn_v all_o that_o will_v not_o believe_v you_o as_o they_o likewise_o do_v thus_o have_v prove_v thou_o a_o false_a prophet_n in_o that_o thou_o have_v not_o the_o mark_n character_n and_o sign_n of_o a_o true_a i_o yet_o have_v a_o few_o more_o thing_n against_o thou_o and_o that_o be_v to_o prove_v thou_o have_v the_o root_n and_o ground_n in_o thou_o of_o all_o those_o abomination_n the_o which_o thou_o say_v be_v mark_n character_n and_o sign_n of_o a_o false_a prophet_n and_o that_o be_v prove_v thus_o thou_o send_v i_o 3_o query_n to_o answer_v and_o thou_o charge_v i_o to_o answer_v they_o in_o plain_a word_n and_o thou_o feign_a a_o answer_n to_o i_o in_o airy_a whimsy_n without_o either_o direct_a answer_n or_o plain_a word_n thus_o thou_o ask_v more_o than_o thou_o will_v give_v thou_o give_v a_o perfect_a sign_n of_o self-love_n in_o thou_o the_o which_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o abomination_n it_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o run_v in_o the_o way_n of_o cain_n after_o envy_v and_o the_o way_n of_o baalam_n after_o gift_n it_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o make_v merchandise_n of_o the_o people_n and_o ministry_n it_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o covetousness_n pride_n and_o ambition_n yea_o it_o be_v the_o very_a corner_n stone_n of_o all_o the_o abomination_n in_o the_o world_n now_o these_o false_a prophet_n of_o who_o thou_o say_v these_o be_v the_o mark_n character_n and_o sign_n of_o they_o come_v not_o with_o these_o mark_n character_n and_o sign_n in_o their_o forehead_n but_o they_o privy_o hide_v they_o under_o their_o sheep_n clothing_n from_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o people_n yea_o they_o come_v in_o with_o two_o horn_n like_o a_o lamb_n till_o they_o have_v get_v into_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o people_n and_o into_o a_o way_n of_o settlement_n they_o then_o speak_v like_o a_o dragon_n again_o as_o thou_o haste_v the_o foresay_a ground_n and_o root_n in_o thou_o so_o there_o be_v many_o branch_n appear_v the_o first_o be_v that_o thou_o blame_v i_o for_o inquire_v and_o say_v it_o be_v out_o of_o my_o busy_a mind_n yet_o thou_o send_v i_o as_o many_o as_o i_o send_v thou_o and_o four_o time_n as_o many_o to_o the_o anabaptist_n thus_o thou_o blame_v i_o for_o send_v 3_o query_n be_v much_o more_o to_o be_v blame_v for_o send_v 15._o the_o second_o be_v a_o branch_n of_o falsehood_n for_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o thy_o pretend_a answer_n thou_o say_v thus_o a_o answer_n to_o three_o query_n and_o at_o the_o end_n thereof_o thou_o say_v thus_o i_o have_v answer_v they_o yet_o thou_o have_v answer_v but_o two_o part_n of_o twelve_o the_o three_o be_v a_o branch_n of_o pure_a folly_n for_o you_o say_v that_o i_o have_v a_o dark_a and_o blind_a understanding_n and_o all_o along_o in_o thy_o airy_a whimsy_n conclude_v i_o in_o darkness_n yet_o thou_o send_v three_o query_n to_o i_o for_o information_n or_o else_o thou_o dissemble_v and_o that_o be_v a_o perfect_a mark_n character_n one_fw-mi sign_n thou_o be_v not_o a_o true_a prophet_n the_o four_o branch_n that_o do_v spring_n out_o of_o this_o bitter_a root_n be_v that_o which_o thou_o say_v be_v a_o mark_n character_n and_o sign_n of_o a_o false_a prophet_n and_o that_o be_v to_o be_v always_o teach_v the_o people_n and_o never_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n so_o thou_o with_o thy_o antic_a carriage_n and_o whimsical_a teach_n juggle_v the_o unstaid_a people_n out_o of_o their_o own_o understanding_n that_o so_o they_o may_v see_v by_o thy_o eye_n and_o hear_v by_o thy_o ear_n and_o understand_v by_o thy_o understanding_n so_o that_o their_o eye_n be_v make_v useless_a their_o ear_n useless_a and_o their_o understanding_n useless_a even_o like_o the_o papist_n the_o poor_a unstaid_a people_n rely_v upon_o thy_o pretend_a infallibility_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v on_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o whereas_o thou_o tell_v they_o that_o christ_n lighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o of_o the_o light_n within_o they_o but_o thou_o either_o can_v not_o or_o will_v not_o show_v the_o people_n what_o they_o be_v to_o understand_v by_o it_o wherefore_o to_o undeceive_v the_o people_n thou_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o thy_o fellow_n deceiver_n have_v beguile_v and_o to_o keep_v other_o from_o be_v deceive_v by_o you_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v what_o this_o light_n be_v or_o what_o of_o necessity_n it_o must_v be_v and_o that_o i_o may_v do_v it_o in_o plainness_n to_o their_o understanding_n i_o shall_v change_v my_o method_n into_o a_o dialogue_n quest_n whether_o christ_n lighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n inward_o or_o outward_o answ_n both_o inward_a and_o outward_a that_o be_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o understanding_n qu._n how_o can_v that_o be_v make_v appear_v a._n the_o same_o ground_n that_o prove_v he_o lighten_v man_n in_o any_o part_n the_o same_o prove_v he_o lighten_v man_n in_o every_o part_n where_o light_n appear_v for_o as_o he_o be_v god_n he_o do_v the_o one_o so_o he_o do_v
