there_o not_o of_o the_o use_n of_o any_o set_v form_n of_o prayer_n practise_v by_o the_o church_n as_o the_o liturgy_n be_v but_o he_o manifest_o speak_v only_o against_o the_o use_n of_o a_o unknown_a and_o barbarous_a tongue_n in_o the_o make_n of_o such_o hymn_n and_o canticle_n and_o prayer_n as_o many_o than_o do_v use_v to_o make_v by_o divine_a inspiration_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o whole_a congregation_n to_o edify_v the_o brother_n assemble_v and_o to_o excite_v they_o to_o love_n to_o honour_n and_o praise_n god_n not_o intend_v chief_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o the_o people_n as_o we_o do_v in_o our_o liturgy_n of_o which_o kind_n of_o set_v form_n of_o prayer_n s._n paul_n can_v not_o be_v say_v to_o speak_v for_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o among_o the_o corinthian_n to_o who_o he_o write_v there_o be_v no_o use_n at_o all_o of_o a_o unknown_a or_o barbarous_a language_n in_o the_o liturgy_n or_o divine_a service_n wherefore_o of_o this_o s._n paul_n can_v not_o complain_v for_o their_o liturgy_n be_v undoubted_o in_o greek_a which_o be_v the_o know_a language_n among_o they_o and_o in_o which_o he_o do_v write_v this_o very_a epistle_n to_o they_o also_o in_o which_o they_o have_v their_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n now_o then_o s._n paul_n speak_v not_o at_o all_o against_o the_o use_n of_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n in_o either_o the_o liturgy_n or_o in_o any_o other_o usual_a set_v form_n of_o public_a prayer_n for_o there_o be_v no_o abuse_n at_o all_o in_o that_o kind_n but_o he_o only_o speak_v against_o that_o use_n practise_v by_o some_o in_o those_o extemporal_a canticle_n prayer_n and_o hymn_n which_o then_o divers_a use_v yet_o of_o such_o kind_n of_o prayer_n also_o though_o make_v in_o unknown_a and_o barbarous_a tongue_n he_o say_v v._o 14._o if_o i_o pray_v in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n my_o spirit_n pray_v and_o this_o great_a good_a i_o have_v by_o my_o prayer_n but_o my_o understanding_n be_v without_o fruit_n that_o be_v without_o the_o fruit_n of_o instruction_n or_o edify_v other_o a_o fruit_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v seek_v for_o by_o those_o to_o who_o god_n have_v so_o particular_o give_v that_o miraculous_a gift_n of_o speak_v in_o several_a tongue_n purposely_o that_o they_o may_v excyte_v and_o stir_v up_o the_o people_n of_o several_a tongue_n and_o nation_n to_o the_o knowledge_n praise_n honour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o add_v i_o will_v pray_v in_o spirit_n i_o will_v pray_v also_o in_o understanding_n that_o in_o those_o prayer_n i_o may_v not_o deprive_v the_o stander_n by_o of_o that_o fruit_n but_o you_o must_v know_v that_o neither_o the_o mass_n nor_o the_o set_v form_n of_o prayer_n in_o our_o liturgy_n be_v ordain_v for_o this_o end_n of_o instruct_v other_o because_o for_o this_o we_o have_v other_o exercise_n of_o catechise_v expound_v exhort_v preach_v etc._n etc._n but_o chief_o those_o prayer_n be_v appoint_v to_o the_o

mass_n be_v in_o all_o mass_n the_o selfsame_a and_o be_v so_o often_o use_v and_o therefore_o upon_o occasion_n so_o often_o declare_v to_o the_o people_n they_o must_v indeed_o be_v very_a idiot_n if_o they_o know_v not_o when_o so_o say_v amen_o when_o to_o kneel_v to_o adore_v to_o knock_v their_o breast_n when_o to_o rise_v when_o to_o stand_v or_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n else_o that_o

in_o purgatory_n this_o be_v the_o language_n of_o holy_a father_n expound_v scripture_n as_o bellarmin_n show_v l._n 1._o de_fw-la purgatorio_fw-la cap._n 4._o out_o of_o s._n hierome_n s._n basil_n

who_o we_o know_v to_o die_v unrepentant_a this_o be_v the_o true_a sense_n of_o this_o place_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o there_o be_v sin_n to_o death_n and_o sin_n not_o to_o death_n the_o meaning_n be_v not_o that_o there_o be_v sin_n mortal_a and_o sin_n venial_a neither_o according_a to_o our_o interpreter_n or_o according_a to_o you_o who_o deny_v all_o venial_a sin_n as_o for_o we_o we_o all_o hold_v prayer_n lawful_o and_o fruitful_o make_v for_o any_o sin_n whatsoever_o during_o the_o life_n of_o the_o sinner_n wherefore_o a_o sin_n to_o death_n be_v to_o leave_v faith_n work_v by_o charity_n even_o to_o death_n as_o s._n austin_n say_v de_fw-fr correp_n &_o gra_fw-mi c._n 12._o whence_o it_o follow_v contrariwise_o that_o a_o sin_n not_o to_o death_n be_v that_o which_o a_o man_n commit_v but_o do_v not_o persevere_v in_o it_o until_o he_o be_v dead_a s._n john_n therefore_o encourage_v we_o with_o confidence_n to_o pray_v for_o any_o who_o we_o do_v not_o know_v to_o be_v depart_v in_o deadly_a sin_n unrepented_a for_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o s._n john_n speak_v here_o of_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a first_o because_o before_o the_o death_n of_o any_o sinner_n we_o may_v pray_v for_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v and_o our_o prayer_n may_v be_v hear_v but_o s._n john_n speak_v of_o a_o sinner_n now_o place_v in_o such_o a_o state_n that_o prayer_n for_o he_o will_v not_o be_v available_a therefore_o he_o speak_v of_o pray_v for_o sinner_n who_o be_v dead_a and_o of_o those_o some_o be_v dead_a in_o their_o sin_n without_o repentance_n for_o these_o he_o bid_v we_o not_o pray_v other_o of_o they_o be_v dead_a after_o they_o due_o repent_v their_o sin_n and_o for_o these_o he_o encourage_v we_o to_o pray_v i_o prove_v this_o second_o because_o he_o speak_v of_o their_o prayer_n who_o know_v their_o brother_n to_o sin_v not_o to_o death_n that_o be_v to_o have_v give_v sign_n of_o true_a repentance_n for_o any_o such_o let_v he_o ask_v and_o life_n of_o glory_n shall_v be_v give_v he_o sin_v not_o to_o death_n now_o if_o this_o principle_n of_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a be_v true_a it_o can_v but_o be_v true_a that_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory_n see_v that_o prayer_n bring_v no_o relief_n to_o any_o that_o be_v either_o in_o heaven_n or_o hell_n 18._o to_o these_o three_o

they_o deny_v purgatory_n show_v we_o manifest_o that_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n for_o their_o prime_a pretence_n of_o just_a separation_n from_o we_o be_v that_o they_o be_v enforce_v thereunto_o for_o such_o error_n as_o they_o can_v manifest_o by_o only_a scripture_n demonstrate_v to_o be_v damnable_a let_v they_o show_v this_o of_o purgatory_n and_o we_o have_v do_v the_o xxvi_o point_n of_o indulgence_n 1._o to_o understand_v this_o point_n well_o which_o be_v misunderstand_v by_o a_o world_n of_o people_n note_v first_o what_o we_o prove_v in_o the_o former_a point_n that_o full_a often_o after_o that_o god_n have_v pardon_v the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n he_o do_v not_o pardon_v the_o guilt_n of_o all_o that_o pain_n to_o which_o the_o sinner_n according_a to_o justice_n be_v still_o liable_a for_o the_o sin_n forgive_v note_n second_o that_o we_o be_v most_o gross_o belie_v by_o our_o adversary_n who_o say_v that_o our_o doctrine_n be_v that_o the_o pope_n can_v forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n by_o grant_v indulgence_n unto_o we_o whereas_o no_o catholic_a doctor_n can_v ever_o be_v show_v to_o have_v teach_v this_o doctrine_n we_o all_o unanimous_o teach_v that_o the_o pope_n by_o no_o indulgence_n can_v forgive_v any_o one_o single_a mortal_a or_o venial_a sin_n for_o our_o faith_n tell_v we_o that_o those_o sin_n be_v only_o forgive_v we_o by_o true_a contrition_n
