yourself_o of_o late_a hold_v these_o very_a same_o error_n of_o the_o outward_a church_n order_n which_o we_o do_v but_o they_o and_o you_o do_v it_o seem_v of_o simplicity_n we_o malicious_o they_o of_o ignorance_n we_o of_o plain_a obstinacy_n and_o have_v a_o convict_v and_o sear_v conscience_n whereby_o they_o &_o you_o may_v be_v true_a christian_n for_o all_o these_o error_n but_o we_o now_o can_v be_v so_o if_o this_o be_v your_o meaning_n than_o you_o grant_v we_o our_o assumption_n against_o which_o all_o your_o dispute_n here_o be_v bend_v you_o grant_v it_o i_o say_v that_o the_o whole_a doctrine_n as_o it_o be_v by_o law_n in_o england_n be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o particular_a man_n a_o true_a christian_a second_o we_o now_o err_v not_o in_o these_o point_n of_o

convict_v conscience_n be_v you_o sure_a of_o this_o do_v you_o know_v every_o man_n heart_n and_o conscience_n so_o well_o if_o you_o do_v than_o you_o say_v somewhat_o indeed_o but_o you_o be_v then_o near_o as_o wise_a as_o god_n himself_o to_o know_v man_n heart_n so_o perfect_o who_o face_n you_o never_o see_v you_o will_v say_v you_o know_v diverse_a who_o you_o dare_v say_v be_v

the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n yea_o of_o the_o learn_a and_o chief_a in_o authority_n that_o be_v convict_v in_o conscience_n that_o he_o be_v the_o christ_n who_o blaspheamed_a in_o deny_v he_o and_o yet_o the_o assembly_n then_o where_o not_o convict_v they_o still_o be_v true_a church_n wherefore_o in_o this_o say_n if_o you_o say_v to_o the_o purpose_n you_o then_o affirm_v the_o three_o general_a point_n that_o i_o note_v in_o you_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o my_o last_o reply_n that_o every_o soul_n in_o england_n be_v convict_v in_o conscience_n but_o here_o i_o marvel_v that_o you_o say_v master_n hus_n and_o other_o of_o the_o holy_a martyr_n do_v hear_v and_o say_v mass_n till_o their_o die_a day_n also_o that_o other_o do_v acknowledge_v the_o pope_n supremacy_n i_o ask_v you_o do_v you_o mean_v that_o they_o hold_v and_o use_v the_o popish_a mass_n according_a to_o all_o the_o abomination_n that_o be_v in_o it_o if_o you_o think_v so_o then_o sure_o neither_o hus_n nor_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n be_v holy_a martyr_n for_o therein_o be_v find_v error_n plain_o fundamental_a which_o of_o themselves_o abolish_v from_o christ_n they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v compare_v to_o our_o public_a error_n now_o in_o england_n the_o like_a i_o say_v of_o the_o pope_n supremacy_n if_o you_o think_v any_o of_o the_o martyr_n acknowledge_v it_o in_o the_o large_a and_o ample_a meaning_n thereof_o as_o the_o popish_a doctor_n do_v set_v it_o down_o then_o very_o neither_o be_v they_o any_o martyr_n the_o book_n of_o act_n and_o monument_n whither_o you_o send_v we_o affirm_v not_o that_o they_o hold_v these_o error_n in_o the_o large_a and_o gross_a sort_n it_o may_v be_v therefore_o they_o hold_v many_o and_o grievous_a error_n of_o ignorance_n both_o in_o the_o popish_a mass_n and_o in_o the_o supremacy_n which_o may_v nevertheless_o stand_v with_o christ_n crucify_v and_o so_o they_o may_v be_v &_o be_v holy_a martyr_n but_o i_o affirm_v that_o according_a to_o the_o damnable_a grossness_n of_o the_o very_a papist_n they_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v hold_v they_o therefore_o in_o these_o instance_n you_o say_v nothing_o to_o we_o nor_o against_o the_o question_n in_o hand_n further_o you_o say_v before_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o your_o desence_n of_o this_o exception_n 13._o exception_n pag._n 13._o that_o master_n cranmer_n ridley_n latimer_n and_o

see_v you_o make_v no_o conscience_n of_o untruth_n yea_o you_o be_v bold_a to_o avouch_v open_a and_o know_v falsehood_n do_v not_o master_n cranmer_n hold_v himself_o for_o archbishop_n still_o and_o that_o he_o be_v by_o the_o pope_n unjust_o and_o unsufficient_o depose_v and_o by_o queen_n mary_n forcible_o restreyn_v from_o it_o do_v he_o ever_o repent_v of_o hold_v that_o office_n till_o

the_o bishop_n of_o winchester_n the_o like_a mind_n be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o bishop_n farrar_n and_o general_o whosoever_o be_v minister_n then_o of_o the_o prelate_n ordination_n they_o never_o
