have_v &_o daily_o do_v arise_v and_o for_o the_o better_a confirm_v of_o their_o credit_n i_o have_v set_v before_o their_o word_n such_o text_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o they_o do_v most_o ground_n upon_o and_o in_o these_o few_o question_n you_o may_v easy_o and_o well_o perceive_v what_o false_a and_o erroneous_a opinion_n have_v be_v raise_v of_o the_o rest_n therefore_o god_n

his_o glory_n &_o to_o the_o help_n of_o our_o poor_a brother_n necessity_n amen_n ¶_o your_o grace_n most_o humble_a servant_n e._n crane_n ¶_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o reader_n sigh_v that_o gentle_a reader_n in_o this_o our_o age_n we_o do_v plain_o see_v many_o book_n and_o innumerable_a sort_n thereof_o to_o be_v setforth_v which_o do_v not_o only_o clean_a overthrow_n the_o mind_n of_o the_o reader_n but_o also_o do_v allure_v and_o draw_v thou_o in_o into_o schism_n and_o most_o pestiferous_a sect_n therefore_o i_o do_v think_v it_o will_v be_v a_o more_o fit_a work_n to_o renew_v the_o old_a monument_n and_o work_n of_o our_o father_n which_o by_o occasion_n of_o time_n and_o rashness_n of_o writer_n have_v be_v pervert_v then_o to_o setforth_v any_o new_a matter_n and_o such_o work_n ought_v most_o chief_o to_o have_v credit_n give_v to_o they_o which_o have_v there_o original_a of_o our_o excellent_a root_n and_o stock_n and_o which_o do_v flow_v out_o of_o a_o good_a stone_n and_o run_v out_o of_o a_o most_o excellent_a fountain_n or_o wellspring_n as_o be_v those_o which_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o the_o buttery_n of_o the_o old_a catholic_a doctor_n which_o under_o the_o choice_n of_o word_n have_v pour_v out_o the_o divine_a spirit_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o all_o the_o world_n may_v easy_o understand_v and_o choose_v a_o immortal_a life_n as_o also_o know_v what_o be_v good_a and_o what_o be_v evil_a and_o as_o soon_o as_o like_v unto_o diligent_a and_o painful_a bee_n you_o have_v draw_v out_o the_o sweet_a honey_n more_o precious_a than_o rosemary_n out_o of_o the_o sweet_a flower_n of_o our_o holy_a father_n and_o have_v lay_v they_o up_o in_o the_o hive_n of_o your_o mind_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o you_o shall_v have_v

of_o who_o it_o be_v lead_v by_o as_o of_o captain_n which_o do_v most_o soon_o and_o with_o great_a expidition_n bring_v our_o purpose_n to_o that_o effect_n which_o otherwise_o our_o wit_n will_v

and_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n have_v so_o many_o and_o so_o great_a example_n of_o our_o most_o worthy_a forefather_n that_o we_o lack_v nothing_o pertain_v to_o thaugment_v or_o

retractiones_fw-la wh●●_n he_o say_v i_o neither_o can_v nor_o aught_o to_o deny_v but_o as_o there_o be_v in_o my_o forefather_n so_o there_o be_v in_o my_o so_o many_o and_o huge_a work_n many_o thing_n which_o by_o just_a judgement_n and_o without_o any_o temerity_n may_v well_o be_v erect_v but_o they_o have_v make_v arroes_n and_o dart_n against_o these_o antechristes_n in_o the_o church_n for_o never_o since_o the_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n unto_o this_o our_o time_n upon_o who_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n be_v come_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n have_v be_v free_a from_o those_o

end_n of_o lie_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v in_o quiet_a but_o this_o most_o detestable_a evil_n and_o sin_n do_v never_o rest_v to_o knock_v at_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o with_o such_o argument_n as_o one_o will_v not_o think_v to_o disquiet_v the_o catholic_a faith_n therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o follower_n of_o the_o troth_n wise_o to_o foresee_v these_o

bloodshed_v for_o verity_n sake_n 4._o to_o fight_v against_o they_o and_o chief_o because_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v admonish_v and_o say_v 16._o be_v not_o dismay_v or_o asrayd_v to_o speak_v the_o word_n for_o thy_o soul_n and_o for_o the_o troth_n even_o to_o death_n for_o paul_n do_v desire_v the_o roman_n to_o mark_v they_o which_o cause_n division_n and_o geve_v occasion_n of_o evil_a

with_o sweet_a preach_v and_o flatter_a word_n deceive_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o innocent_n it_o may_v be_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v admonish_v the_o roman_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v waver_v in_o faith_n and_o in_o the_o word_n that_o they_o shall_v shun_v and_o put_v away_o heretic_n and_o seducer_n of_o soul_n but_o it_o be_v command_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v preach_v the_o word_n and_o shall_v stand_v to_o it_o at_o all_o time_n and_o season_n we_o shall_v correct_v we_o shall_v persuade_v we_o shall_v chide_v and_o chasten_v they_o withal_o patience_n and_o

their_o own_o desire_n which_o have_v itchchinge_a ear_n and_o which_o turn_v their_o hear_n and_o sense_n from_o verity_n and_o truth_n unto_o fable_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n do_v exhort_v we_o to_o watch_v to_o labour_v and_o to_o do_v the_o work_n of_o true_a gospeler_n let_v that_o terrible_a sentence_n of_o s._n chryostome_n never_o be_v out_o of_o our_o ear_n say_v he_o be_v not_o
