doctrine_n of_o popery_n tell_v we_o that_o before_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o his_o resurrection_n from_o the_o grave_n all_o the_o saint_n depart_v be_v in_o limbus_n a_o place_n

therefore_o they_o tell_v we_o to_o eke_o out_o the_o story_n that_o as_o christ_n go_v down_o into_o hell_n the_o place_n of_o the_o damn_a to_o strike_v terror_n into_o the_o devil_n so_o he_o go_v into_o this_o limbus_n thence_o to_o deliver_v the_o father_n from_o that_o prison_n and_o carry_v they_o up_o with_o himself_o into_o glory_n now_o this_o be_v their_o tenet_n how_o senseless_a be_v it_o for_o they_o to_o ground_v their_o opinion_n of_o invocation_n of_o saint_n upon_o any_o scripture_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v so_o to_o ground_v it_o upon_o this_o
