A89682	An apology for the service of love, and the people that own it, commonly called, the family of love. Being a plain, but groundly discourse, about the right and true Christian religion : set forth dialogue-wise between the citizen, the countreyman, and an exile : as the same was presented to the high court of Parliament, in the time of Queen Elizabeth; and penned by one of her Majesties menial servants, who was in no small esteem with her, for his wisdom and godliness. With another short confession of their faith, made by the same people. And finally some notes & collections, gathered by a private hand out of H.N. upon, or concerning the eight beatitudes.	Niclaes, Hendrik, 1502?-1580?	1656 (1656)	Wing N1122; Thomason E1610_1; ESTC R210332	24,412	73

have_v here_o speak_v of_o be_v libertine_n have_v neither_o light_n truth_n nor_o spirit_n of_o god_n or_o christ_n then_o god_n be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o for_o then_o be_v it_o all_o in_o vain_a for_o many_o a_o one_o in_o these_o day_n to_o stand_v up_o or_o teach_v in_o a_o congregation_n notwithstanding_o i_o can_v be_v persuade_v as_o yet_o although_o i_o most_o needs_o grant_v that_o

and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n itself_o then_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o those_o which_o be_v void_a of_o christ_n shall_v preach_v or_o prophesy_v aright_o the_o true_a to_o inde_fw-la or_o
