to_o show_v how_o little_o she_o befriend_v it_o in_o that_o she_o make_v she_o own_o authority_n the_o only_a foundation_n of_o that_o belief_n that_o of_o hear_v his_o word_n we_o have_v now_o see_v how_o ineffectual_a she_o make_v it_o that_o of_o prayer_n she_o make_v so_o as_o much_o as_o she_o can_v both_o by_o her_o foresay_a doctrine_n of_o the_o nonnecessity_n of_o employ_v the_o mind_n therein_o and_o her_o suitable_a practice_n of_o enjoin_v the_o read_n of_o prayer_n in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n as_o also_o by_o defile_v they_o with_o superstitious_a rite_n and_o even_o gross_a

make_v their_o efficacy_n dependent_a on_o the_o priest_n intention_n and_o that_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n by_o rob_v the_o people_n of_o half_a and_o convert_v the_o whole_a by_o her_o

we_o to_o use_v these_o and_o the_o like_a mean_n with_o happy_a success_n i_o need_v not_o say_v what_o a_o enemy_n popery_n be_v to_o this_o grace_n and_o the_o efficaciousness_n thereof_o have_v now_o show_v what_o a_o enemy_n it_o be_v to_o these_o mean_n four_o whereas_o we_o have_v likewise_o present_v several_a most_o powerful_a motive_n which_o our_o lord_n have_v give_v we_o to_o prevail_v with_o our_o will_n to_o comply_v with_o this_o grace_n popery_n be_v apt_a great_o to_o weaken_v and_o deaden_v every_o one_o of_o they_o to_o all_o its_o proselyte_n as_o for_o instance_n 1._o that_o of_o the_o vnconceiveable_a love_n of_o god_n express_v in_o send_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n upon_o the_o errand_n of_o our_o deliverance_n etc._n etc._n wherein_o we_o say_v be_v imply_v two_o wonderful_o exciting_a motive_n to_o comply_v hearty_o with_o the_o method_n christ_n have_v take_v to_o set_v we_o free_a from_o the_o dominion_n of_o sin_n viz._n first_o god_n extreme_a hatred_n of_o sin_n in_o that_o he_o will_v not_o propose_v term_n of_o reconciliation_n to_o sinner_n without_o the_o intervention_n of_o such_o a_o sacrifice_n as_o that_o of_o his_o dear_a son_n second_o his_o as_o wonderful_a love_n to_o sinner_n now_o as_o to_o the_o former_a of_o these_o two_o motive_n what_o influence_n can_v it_o have_v upon_o those_o who_o be_v make_v to_o believe_v that_o a_o company_n of_o little_a sleight_n penance_n will_v satisfy_v for_o great_a and_o enormous_a crime_n can_v they_o think_v that_o god_n do_v account_v sin_n so_o heinous_a and_o intolerable_a a_o evil_n when_o they_o presume_v he_o so_o willing_a to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o great_a sinner_n upon_o the_o most_o easy_a term_n and_o condition_n the_o foresay_a gentleman_n who_o be_v conversant_a among_o they_o tell_v we_o 13._o that_o their_o penance_n do_v ordinary_o consist_v but_o in_o ave_fw-la mary_n and_o pater_n noster_n with_o some_o easy_a alm_n to_o they_o that_o be_v able_a and_o some_o little_a fast_n to_o such_o as_o be_v willing_a and_o that_o he_o himself_o have_v know_v when_o the_o penance_n for_o horrible_a blasphemy_n and_o that_o frequent_a too_o beside_o much_o other_o lewdness_n have_v be_v but_o the_o bare_a say_n of_o their_o bead_n thrice_o over_o which_o in_o italy_n such_o good_a husband_n be_v they_o hinder_v no_o business_n but_o as_o he_o also_o observe_v they_o dispatch_v their_o bead_n as_o they_o walk_v the_o street_n or_o rid_v business_n at_o home_n make_v it_o two_o lip_n and_o one_o finger_n work_v but_o be_v the_o penance_n impose_v by_o the_o priest_n never_o so_o sharp_a he_o show_v that_o the_o father_n plenary_a pardon_n sweep_v all_o away_o at_o a_o blow_n and_o that_o of_o these_o they_o have_v grant_v especial_o the_o pope_n that_o live_v in_o his_o time_n so_o huge_a a_o number_n that_o he_o believe_v there_o be_v few_o church_n of_o note_n in_o italy_n which_o have_v not_o purchase_v or_o procure_v a_o perpetual_a plenary_a indulgence_n by_o virtue_n whereof_o whosoever_o at_o certain_a day_n be_v confess_v and_o have_v communicate_v pour_v out_o his_o devotion_n at_o some_o altar_n in_o that_o church_n or_o give_v alm_n to_o the_o behoof_n thereof_o have_v forthwith_o free_a remission_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o punishment_n which_o i_o say_v be_v the_o most_o effectual_a course_n that_o can_v be_v devise_v to_o make_v people_n think_v that_o the_o great_a sin_n be_v no_o great_a evil_n in_o god_n than_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o account_n and_o then_o as_o to_o the_o latter_a motive_n how_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o sinner_n lessen_v by_o this_o doctrine_n of_o they_o viz._n that_o by_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n true_o penitent_n be_v indeed_o deliver_v from_o hell_n but_o not_o from_o the_o direful_a pain_n of_o purgatory_n which_o as_o be_v say_v may_v be_v equal_a in_o all_o respect_n to_o those_o of_o hell_n except_o in_o the_o duration_n of_o they_o which_o yet_o may_v endure_v too_o for_o many_o age_n but_o that_o they_o have_v invent_v mean_n to_o shorten_v they_o and_o their_o eak_v out_o the_o satisfaction_n which_o christ_n have_v make_v to_o the_o divine_a justice_n for_o sinner_n with_o satisfaction_n of_o their_o own_o make_n do_v also_o not_o a_o little_a disparage_v he_o and_o his_o father_n love_n in_o what_o he_o have_v suffer_v in_o their_o behalf_n 2._o as_o to_o the_o motive_n of_o christ_n admirable_a example_n we_o have_v show_v of_o what_o little_a efficacy_n this_o be_v make_v by_o the_o vile_a example_n of_o his_o vicar_n and_o vicegerent_n and_o their_o spiritual_a guide_n whereunto_o i_o will_v add_v this_o passage_n of_o the_o say_a sir_n edwin_n 137_o that_o the_o iniquity_n of_o their_o chief_a see_n have_v be_v so_o exorbitant_a as_o to_o have_v raise_v amid_o themselves_o this_o proverb_n or_o say_n that_o the_o worst_a christian_n of_o italy_n be_v the_o roman_n of_o the_o roman_n the_o priest_n be_v wicked_a the_o lewd_a priest_n be_v prefer_v to_o be_v cardinal_n and_o the_o bad_a man_n among_o the_o cardinal_n be_v prefer_v to_o be_v pope_n 3._o as_o for_o this_o motive_n viz._n the_o assurance_n christ_n have_v give_v we_o that_o he_o will_v not_o take_v such_o advantage_n of_o our_o frailty_n as_o to_o cast_v we_o off_o for_o they_o it_o be_v even_o quite_o take_v away_o by_o their_o doctrine_n of_o even_o venial_a sin_n be_v so_o severe_o punish_v in_o purgatory_n 4._o for_o that_o of_o our_o saviour_n mediation_n and_o intercession_n what_o a_o little_a motive_n have_v they_o make_v it_o by_o make_v so_o many_o co-mediator_n with_o jesus_n christ_n as_o if_o his_o mediation_n be_v far_o from_o sufficient_a and_o nothing_o have_v be_v more_o observe_v than_o that_o for_o one_o pater_fw-la noster_fw-la they_o say_v very_o many_o ave_fw-la mary_n and_o the_o virgin_n mother_n of_o god_n as_o they_o call_v she_o be_v caress_v after_o that_o rate_n by_o they_o that_o it_o be_v scarce_o uncharitable_a to_o suspect_v that_o they_o lie_v far_o more_o stress_n upon_o she_o than_o upon_o her_o son_n merit_n last_o to_o join_v together_o the_o motive_n of_o the_o glorious_a reward_n promise_v to_o the_o subdue_a of_o corrupt_a affection_n and_o the_o most_o dismal_a punishment_n those_o be_v threaten_v with_o who_o gratisie_n they_o it_o appear_v abundant_o from_o what_o have_v be_v already_o say_v that_o they_o have_v make_v these_fw-mi exceed_o weak_a and_o insignificant_a but_o that_o one_o doctrine_n be_v enough_o to_o do_v it_o alone_o which_o we_o find_v back_v with_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n viz._n 4._o that_o imperfect_a contrition_n or_o attrition_n although_o by_o itself_o it_o can_v bring_v a_o sinner_n to_o justification_n without_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n nevertheless_o it_o dispose_v he_o for_o the_o obtain_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o that_o
