answer_n may_v suffice_v that_o those_o three_o holy_a language_n hebrew_n greek_n and_o latin_a have_v be_v sanctify_v by_o that_o sacred_a title_n upon_o the_o holy_a cross_n we_o may_v well_o presume_v that_o they_o remain_v ever_o after_o more_o grateful_a to_o god_n more_o venerable_a both_o to_o angel_n and_o man_n &_o much_o more_o dreadful_a doubtless_o to_o the_o devil_n our_o

at_o his_o sacred_a passion_n to_o publish_v his_o glorious_a triumph_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o there_o to_o declare_v he_o to_o the_o full_a view_n of_o the_o world_n that_o he_o be_v jesus_n nazarenus_n rex_fw-la judaeorum_n john_n 19_o second_o i_o answer_v that_o since_o the_o latin_a church_n be_v found_v by_o the_o apostle_n it_o have_v ever_o use_v this_o tongue_n both_o for_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o her_o liturgy_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v just_o conceive_v she_o too_o ancient_a and_o our_o adversary_n over_o young_a to_o teach_v this_o our_o venerable_a and_o so_o

among_o the_o english_a nation_n and_o therefore_o by_o good_a consequence_n this_o practice_n of_o say_v mass_n in_o the_o latin_a tongue_n must_v needs_o at_o least_o be_v full_a as_o ancient_a as_o their_o christendom_n three_o even_o reason_n itself_o make_v it_o manifest_a that_o as_o god_n himself_o be_v one_o and_o ever_o the_o same_o immutable_a and_o his_o church_n universal_a and_o most_o true_o catholic_a and_o not_o of_o one_o nation_n but_o of_o all_o so_o also_o ought_v his_o divine_a and_o public_a service_n to_o be_v perform_v in_o one_o general_n immutable_a and_o universal_a

this_o the_o public_a service_n of_o the_o church_n be_v say_v in_o every_o vulgar_a language_n few_o priest_n will_v be_v able_a to_o exercise_v that_o function_n out_o of_o their_o own_o native_a

therefore_o thy_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v silent_a abroad_o or_o stay_v at_o home_n whereas_o catholic_a priest_n serve_v god_n after_o the_o selffame_v manner_n in_o every_o place_n and_o all_o

and_o yet_o our_o bless_a saviour_n find_v no_o fault_n with_o they_o for_o it_o and_o whereas_o they_o object_v that_o by_o our_o service_n in_o latin_a we_o receive_v neither_o edification_n nor_o
