he_o attempt_n and_o give_v this_o reason_n for_o that_o protestant_n let_v natural_a object_n ever_o about_o mystery_n of_o their_o faith_n have_v the_o direction_n of_o their_o sense_n in_o which_o they_o be_v so_o often_o deceive_v rather_o than_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o can_v deceive_v they_o but_o where_o have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n teach_v we_o that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o judge_n of_o natural_a object_n by_o those_o sense_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o to_o judge_n of_o natural_a object_n by_o will_v he_o undertake_v to_o prou●_n this_o also_o when_o he_o himself_o

our_o author_n salve_v this_o difficulty_n that_o he_o proceed_v in_o after_o this_o manner_n but_o if_o we_o desire_v to_o frame_v a_o true_a judgement_n as_o if_o the_o other_o be_v a_o false_a one_o of_o what_o be_v the_o nature_n and_o substance_n of_o such_o a_o object_n not_o according_a to_o a_o natural_a be_v but_o according_a to_o the_o divine_a power_n and_o what_o it_o may_v have_v of_o supernatural_a the_o sense_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v lay_v aside_o but_o we_o must_v consider_v here_o too_o the_o information_n these_o give_v not_o now_o from_o the_o natural_a accident_n but_o from_o the_o word_n of_o god._n i_o shall_v have_v think_v the_o conclusion_n to_o be_v infer_v from_o hence_o will_v rather_o be_v the_o sense_n ought_v to_o be_v lay_v aside_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v not_o in_o such_o case_n to_o judge_n of_o the_o natural_a accident_n according_a to_o what_o they_o report_v for_o i_o must_v confess_v he_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o i_o have_v meet_v with_o that_o have_v improve_v the_o argument_n this_o way_n and_o that_o appeal_v to_o the_o sense_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o transubstantiation_n which_o their_o church_n so_o cautious_o warn_v

i_o will_v make_v a_o judgement_n i_o can_v do_v it_o without_o the_o information_n of_o my_o sense_n these_o may_v inform_v i_o two_o way_n either_o by_o look_v upon_o the_o thing_n itself_o or_o by_o read_v the_o letter_n send_v along_o with_o it_o or_o the_o report_n of_o the_o bearer_n if_o i_o take_v the_o information_n of_o my_o sense_n from_o the_o view_n of_o the_o stone_n i_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v a_o pebble_n if_o from_o the_o letter_n write_v by_o a_o excellent_a artist_n and_o the_o bearer_n a_o skilful_a jeweller_n i_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v a_o true_a diamond_n upon_o

be_o bind_v in_o reason_n to_o judge_n of_o it_o so_o rather_o than_o from_o the_o natural_a accident_n to_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v bread_n so_o that_o in_o thus_o believe_v this_o mystery_n we_o do_v not_o renounce_v but_o follow_v our_o sense_n but_o his_o instance_n reach_v not_o the_o case_n 1._o because_o the_o judge_a whether_o a_o transparent_a stone_n be_v a_o counterfeit_n or_o a_o

he_o that_o send_v it_o and_o that_o the_o letter_n and_o bearer_n both_o affirm_v this_o small_a stone_n which_o he_o now_o hold_v betwixt_o his_o finger_n and_o know_v by_o his_o sense_n to_o be_v

of_o sense_n or_o must_v he_o not_o renounce_v his_o sense_n to_o do_v it_o 2._o he_o suppose_v further_a that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n be_v as_o plain_o contain_v in_o scripture_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o letter_n that_o the_o transparent_a stone_n then_o send_v be_v a_o diamond_n but_o that_o he_o know_v we_o deny_v and_o when_o he_o can_v find_v these_o or_o the_o like_a
