A78369	The Catholick mirrour. Or, a looking-glasse for Protestants Wherein they may plainly see the errours of their church, and the truth of the Roman Catholick. Which is divided into seventeen chapters, containing the principle points in dispute between Catholicks and Protestants, and all proved by their own Bible, for the satisfaction of those that desire to imbrace true religion.		1662 (1662)	Wing C1494A; ESTC R229524	59,266	156

to_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o public_a or_o common_a service_n of_o god_n church_n be_v compose_v of_o sucrifice_n prayer_n and_o thanksgiving_n be_v therefore_o chief_o design_v for_o the_o

that_o it_o matter_n not_o whether_o they_o understand_v he_o or_o no_o since_o they_o have_v as_o much_o benefit_n of_o his_o prayer_n as_o if_o they_o do_v for_o if_o they_o hear_v he_o not_o

first_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o though_o the_o common_a people_n in_o england_n read_v the_o bible_n in_o english_a yet_o they_o understand_v not_o half_a of_o it_o nor_o which_o be_v worse_o

less_o if_o not_o so_o can_v they_o hear_v they_o in_o hell_n we_o may_v again_o observe_v that_o the_o place_n where_o abraham_n and_o the_o father_n be_v be_v not_o far_o from_o the_o local_a hell_n of_o the_o damn_a but_o as_o st._n augustine_n say_v the_o upper_a part_n or_o over_o it_o some_o distance_n where_o holy_a abraham_n say_v 26._o ver_fw-la 26._o there_o be_v a_o gulf_n that_o
