nay_o to_o invocate_v they_o more_o than_o god_n for_o god_n be_v not_o so_o often_o pray_v to_o as_o the_o virgin_n mary_n but_o that_o these_o bless_a creature_n themselves_o as_o well_o as_o

doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n a_o miracle_n itself_o they_o call_v it_o in_o their_o manual_a which_o teach_v they_o to_o say_v thus_o at_o the_o elevation_n oh_o miracle_n oh_o the_o goodness_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v do_v by_o no_o juggle_n but_o in_o the_o open_a sight_n of_o all_o the_o looker_n on_o and_o what_o do_v the_o looker_n on_z discern_v do_v they_o see_v any_o

in_o so_o many_o several_a place_n and_o whole_a in_o every_o place_n in_o heaven_n upon_o earth_n both_o here_o and_o at_o rome_n and_o in_o both_o the_o indies_n oh_o monstrous_a belief_n have_v not_o this_o need_n to_o be_v support_v with_o miracle_n it_o be_v propagate_v by_o they_o and_o bellarmine_n 8._o prove_v it_o by_o they_o because_o some_o have_v see_v the_o host_n to_o bleed_v other_o have_v see_v a_o child_n in_o the_o place_n of_o it_o and_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o st._n anthony_n of_o padua_n horse_n forsake_v his_o oat_n to_o go_v and_o worship_v it_o i_o be_o sensible_a that_o these_o thing_n be_v very_o ridiculous_a and_o therefore_o i_o be_o ashamed_a to_o mention_v any_o more_o of_o they_o and_o yet_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v excuse_v we_o if_o we_o

some_o may_v possible_o be_v fool_n enough_o to_o believe_v they_o but_o if_o i_o shall_v proceed_v into_o their_o legend_n and_o life_n if_o i_o shall_v spread_v before_o you_o the_o filth_n of_o those_o lewd_a romance_n i_o shall_v seem_v to_o have_v too_o little_a regard_n to_o this_o place_n and_o to_o this_o presence_n they_o be_v stuff_v with_o such_o absurd_a tale_n such_o idle_a and_o
