they_o shall_v prove_v that_o there_o be_v more_o wise_a man_n than_o fool_n now_o then_o i_o think_v it_o do_v sufficient_o appear_v that_o by_o this_o bare_a succession_n which_o they_o brag_v of_o

here_o true_o i_o confess_v that_o i_o do_v somewhat_o overshoot_v myself_o for_o see_v the_o question_n be_v of_o doctrine_n what_o do_v this_o appertain_v to_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n who_o all_o christendom_n know_v now_o so_o many_o year_n to_o have_v be_v for_o nothing_o less_o careful_a then_o for_o any_o doctrine_n either_o true_a or_o false_a but_o only_o for_o

lawful_a authority_n against_o their_o tyranny_n who_o have_v persuade_v all_o man_n that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v judge_v of_o none_o therefore_o there_o have_v be_v not_o of_o late_a only_a but_o many_o age_n together_o not_o a_o interruption_n but_o a_o full_a abruption_n or_o rent_v of_o the_o succession_n of_o rome_n from_o the_o body_n of_o the_o catholic_a true_a church_n except_o peradventure_o these_o man_n judge_v that_o it_o be_v something_o less_o either_o to_o believe_v nothing_o or_o to_o teach_v nothing_o than_o to_o be_v a_o heretic_n and_o i_o beseech_v you_o what_o

contrary_a these_o man_n themselves_o can_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o truth_n ought_v necessary_o to_o go_v before_o succession_n and_o these_o sophister_n person_n the_o christian_a church_n in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n can_v not_o be_v know_v by_o the_o succession_n of_o person_n if_o they_o have_v be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n by_o what_o bishoply_n succession_n will_v they_o have_v acknowledge_v the_o true_a church_n sure_o not_o by_o the_o title_n or_o name_n of_o the_o leviticall_a high_a priest_n because_o that_o priesthood_n be_v then_o at_o a_o end_n and_o christ_n can_v be_v call_v the_o successor_n of_o aaron_n unless_o judaisme_n be_v again_o establish_v wherefore_o also_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v make_v a_o high_a priest_n 7.16.17_o heb._n 7.16.17_o not_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o levi_n but_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedec_n therefore_o the_o holy_a man_n at_o that_o time_n acknowledge_v the_o catholic_a church_n without_o the_o mark_n of_o personal_a succession_n to_o wit_n by_o the_o comparison_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o prophet_n with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n himself_o and_o the_o apostle_n which_o be_v so_o far_o true_a that_o on_o the_o contrary_n none_o have_v less_o acknowledge_v christ_n than_o they_o that_o have_v cleaved_a to_o a_o byshoply_n succession_n therefore_o that_o personal_a succession_n be_v no_o true_a and_o perpetual_a mark_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n these_o man_n happy_o be_v drive_v from_o the_o leviticall_a succession_n will_v again_o object_v another_o succession_n from_o the_o prophet_n but_o neither_o so_o shall_v they_o speak_v the_o truth_n if_o they_o stick_v in_o the_o person_n themselves_o for_o the_o succession_n of_o prophet_n be_v not_o perpetual_a no_o more_o than_o the_o succession_n of_o priest_n yea_o rather_o it_o be_v break_v of_o a_o long_a time_n especial_o after_o malachi_n they_o will_v also_o object_v unto_o we_o that_o say_n 23.2_o mat._n 23.2_o the_o scribe_n &_o pharise_n sit_v in_o moses_n chair_n but_o again_o they_o shall_v remember_v the_o same_o christ_n to_o have_v say_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o leaven_n of_o the_o pharisee_n 16.6_o mat._n 16.6_o and_o therefore_o by_o that_o say_n of_o christ_n we_o be_v not_o call_v back_o to_o a_o succession_n of_o person_n but_o to_o a_o succession_n of_o doctrine_n but_o i_o have_v beside_o a_o other_o thing_n more_o peremptorye_n as_o they_o themselves_o speak_v to_o answer_v against_o that_o in_o which_o these_o man_n false_o boast_v themselves_o to_o follow_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o father_n in_o descry_v the_o church_n by_o which_o thing_n also_o their_o wiliness_n may_v more_o and_o more_o be_v make_v manifest_a i_o deny_v therefore_o heretic_n the_o ancient_a father_n use_v not_o the_o argument_n of_o personal_a succession_n against_o all_o heretic_n that_o any_o of_o the_o ancient_a father_n have_v at_o any_o time_n make_v mention_n of_o this_o succession_n but_o either_o against_o schismatic_n while_o
have_v pollute_v the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n with_o infinite_a corruption_n and_o that_o they_o have_v take_v away_o even_o at_o the_o first_o one_o element_n of_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o

away_o all_o that_o holy_a action_n and_o therefore_o open_o have_v by_o violence_n pull_v away_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v short_a that_o they_o have_v by_o as_o many_o false_a sacrament_n as_o it_o please_v they_o to_o devise_v take_v to_o themselves_o the_o authority_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o only_a law_n gyver_n therefore_o what_o part_n of_o
