to_o the_o present_a age._n 2._o that_o she_o can_v not_o mistake_v the_o sense_n of_o tradition_n in_o particular_a point_n in_o contradiction_n to_o these_o confident_a assertion_n i_o have_v here_o show_v by_o confront_v the_o doctrine_n and_o say_n of_o the_o father_n to_o the_o express_a determination_n of_o their_o council_n 1._o that_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n have_v vary_v in_o this_o matter_n from_o antiquity_n both_o in_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n and_o that_o tradition_n plain_o contradict_v all_o their_o assertion_n and_o decree_n relate_v to_o it_o and_o therefore_o that_o all_o her_o late_a defender_n be_v much_o mistake_v or_o which_o be_v worse_o will_v lead_v other_o into_o a_o know_a error_n when_o they_o undertake_v to_o persuade_v they_o that_o the_o practice_n of_o their_o church_n in_o deny_v the_o cup_n to_o the_o laity_n and_o to_o priest_n non-conficient_a be_v warrant_v by_o tradition_n and_o primitive_a practice_n and_o by_o the_o principle_n on_o which_o they_o build_v that_o pretend_a practice_n 2._o that_o in_o this_o particular_a point_n she_o have_v either_o actual_o mistake_v the_o sense_n of_o tradition_n or_o actual_o devidate_v from_o tradition_n and_o see_v whether_o she_o do_v not_o differ_v from_o or_o agree_v with_o the_o primitive_a belief_n and_o practice_n in_o this_o article_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o fact_n and_o so_o may_v be_v determine_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o good_a witness_n of_o what_o be_v practise_v and_o believe_v in_o their_o time_n and_o by_o plain_a allegation_n of_o matter_n of_o fact_n without_o infallibility_n in_o plain_a reason_n and_o from_o her_o own_o avow_a principle_n it_o follow_v that_o her_o authority_n in_o say_v she_o do_v not_o differ_v from_o the_o tradition_n of_o the_o ancient_n and_o much_o more_o in_o assert_v that_o she_o have_v always_o hold_v to_o it_o and_o therefore_o can_v not_o mistake_v the_o sense_n of_o it_o can_v be_v of_o no_o force_n against_o plain_a evidence_n of_o fact_n to_o the_o contrary_n if_o then_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o belief_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o ancient_n and_o of_o the_o present_a church_n of_o rome_n in_o this_o matter_n be_v evident_a as_o i_o think_v i_o have_v make_v it_o it_o must_v be_v own_v that_o the_o present_v receive_v tradition_n of_o that_o church_n can_v be_v no_o certain_a rule_n of_o

the_o ancient_n and_o thus_o far_o 1._o and_o no_o far_o will_v i_o be_v think_v to_o drive_v the_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o citation_n of_o the_o ancient_n the_o right_a or_o authority_n
