set_v down_o in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o this_o treatise_n though_o many_o &_o weighty_a they_o be_v or_o may_v be_v wherefore_o to_o speak_v brief_o somewhat_o thereof_o and_o for_o more_o brevity_n and_o perspicuity_n to_o draw_v the_o matter_n to_o some_o kind_n of_o order_n and_o method_n you_o must_v note_v that_o of_o these_o ten_o disputation_n only_o four_o be_v in_o time_n of_o catholic_a government_n as_o before_o i_o signify_v that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o six-daye_n conference_n in_o the_o convocation-house_n in_o the_o begin_v of_o q._n maryes_fw-mi reign_n &_o house_n the_o three-day_n several_a disputation_n at_o oxford_n with_o cranmer_n ridley_n and_o latymer_n some_o month_n after_o and_o as_o for_o the_o first_o in_o the_o convocation-house_n the_o protestant_n only_o do_v dispute_v for_o three_o continual_a day_n together_o to_o wit_n phillips_n haddon_n cheyney_n elmour_n and_o philpott_n and_o several_a catholic_a man_n be_v appoint_v to_o answer_v they_o and_o when_o in_o the_o end_n the_o protestant_n be_v require_v to_o answer_v according_a to_o promise_n in_o their_o turn_n the_o catholic_a opponent_n for_o other_o three_o day_n they_o refuse_v 30._o it_o all_o save_v philpott_n upon_o certain_a condition_n to_o be_v hear_v yet_o further_o but_o doctor_n weston_n the_o prolocutor_n reject_v he_o as_o a_o man_n fit_a to_o be_v send_v to_o bedlam_n say_v fox_n then_o to_o be_v admit_v to_o disputation_n etc._n etc._n for_o that_o he_o both_o be_v unlearned_a and_o philpott_n a_o very_a mad_a man_n in_o deed_n wherefore_o out_o of_o this_o disputation_n little_a or_o nothing_o be_v offer_v about_o this_o article_n of_o reall-presence_n for_o that_o the_o catholic_a party_n dispute_v not_o at_o all_o 2._o and_o as_o for_o the_o other_o three_o day_n disputation_n in_o oxford_n the_o last_o which_o be_v with_o latymer_n be_v very_o little_a for_o that_o he_o flee_v disputation_n as_o there_o you_o shall_v see_v and_o the_o few_o argument_n that_o be_v make_v against_o he_o be_v rather_o in_o proof_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n so_o as_o most_o argument_n be_v allege_v in_o the_o former_a two-daye_n conflict_n against_o cranmer_n and_o ridley_n which_o present_o we_o shall_v examine_v though_o under_o k._n edward_n also_o one_o day_n of_o the_o cambridge_n disputation_n be_v allow_v to_o catholic_a opponent_n to_o propose_v their_o argument_n doctor_n madew_n be_v defendant_n for_o the_o protestant_n and_o doctor_n glyn_n master_n langdall_n &_o master_n sedgwicke_n opponent_n for_o the_o catholic_n to_o as_o out_o of_o these_o four_o disputation_n we_o shall_v note_v brief_o some_o catholic_a argument_n that_o be_v allege_v advertisinge_v the_o reader_n first_o to_o consider_v with_o some_o attention_n the_o point_n ensue_v 3._o first_o that_o we_o have_v nothing_o of_o these_o disputation_n observe_v their_o argument_n or_o answer_n but_o only_o such_o as_o please_v john_n fox_n to_o deliver_v and_o impart_v with_o we_o which_o most_o evident_o do_v appear_v to_o be_v mangle_v and_o unperfect_a in_o many_o place_n without_o head_n or_o foot_n coherence_n or_o consequence_n which_o must_v proceed_v either_o of_o purpose_n to_o make_v matter_n obscure_a and_o thereby_o to_o bring_v the_o reader_n into_o doubt_n and_o confusion_n or_o of_o lack_n of_o good_a information_n and_o that_o the_o former_a be_v more_o credible_a than_o the_o second_o may_v be_v gliess_v by_o the_o variety_n of_o impertinent_a note_n in_o the_o margin_n scoff_n and_o
