Bishops Second part of the Reformation of a Catholike, as the same was first guilefully published vnder that name, conteining only a large and most malicious preface to the reader, and an answer to M. Perkins his aduertisement to Romane Catholicks, &c. Whereunto is added an aduertisement for the time concerning the said Doct. Bishops reproofe, lately published against a little piece of the answer to his epistle to the King, with an answer to some few exceptions taken against the same, by M. T.

bishop_n to_o his_o reason_n for_o we_o see_v he_o know_v not_o the_o law_n as_o for_o we_o we_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v the_o full_a description_n of_o all_o moral_a duty_n and_o that_o every_o trespass_n in_o moral_a duty_n and_o namely_o their_o venial_a sin_n be_v transgression_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o that_o no_o man_n fulfil_v the_o law_n because_o no_o man_n live_v without_o daily_a venial_a sin_n venial_a as_o they_o call_v they_o though_o all_o sin_n by_o the_o law_n be_v adjudge_v mortal_a thus_o we_o see_v how_o foul_o m._n bishop_n be_v mistake_v to_o think_v with_o his_o elder_a stick_n to_o prop_v up_o his_o four_o point_n of_o popery_n which_o whether_o he_o will_v or_o not_o be_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o he_o can_v

certain_o know_v that_o we_o repent_v and_o believe_v and_o be_v reconcile_v by_o god_n which_o all_o roman_a catholic_n deny_a answ_n nothing_o less_o because_o much_o more_o be_v require_v to_o

hearty_o repent_v i_o of_o all_o my_o sin_n and_o that_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o further_o that_o i_o have_v a_o firm_a purpose_n not_o to_o commit_v hereafter_o any_o kind_n of_o mortal_a sin_n these_o thing_n as_o every_o one_o may_v plain_o see_v be_v far_o more_o difficult_a than_o the_o other_o of_o forgive_a they_o that_o trespass_n against_o us._n r._n abbot_n m._n perkins_n do_v not_o say_v charity_n our_o repentance_n and_o faith_n to_o be_v know_v as_o well_o as_o our_o charity_n that_o in_o this_o clause_n it_o be_v take_v for_o grant_v that_o we_o may_v certain_o know_v

that_o we_o be_v in_o love_n and_o charity_n with_o man_n when_o we_o make_v reconciliation_n whereupon_o he_o infer_v the_o other_o why_o then_o may_v we_o not_o know_v certain_o that_o we_o repent_v and_o believe_v and_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n m._n bishop_n tell_v we_o that_o much_o more_o be_v require_v to_o the_o one_o than_o to_o the_o other_o but_o what_o that_o be_v he_o tell_v not_o he_o say_v it_o be_v far_o easy_a to_o discern_v the_o one_o than_o the_o other_o but_o reason_n he_o give_v none_o he_o say_v that_o every_o one_o may_v plain_o see_v it_o and_o we_o think_v we_o can_v see_v into_o a_o millstone_n as_o far_o as_o he_o and_o yet_o we_o can_v see_v but_o that_o a_o man_n may_v discern_v the_o truth_n of_o his_o heart_n in_o the_o one_o as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o other_o and_o till_o he_o give_v reason_n to_o the_o contrary_a we_o so_o leave_v he_o 41._o w._n bishop_n in_o the_o last_o word_n and_o lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n 26.1_o psal_n
