very_o clear_a in_o this_o point_n that_o st._n paul_n do_v not_o here_o speak_v of_o a_o purgatory_n of_o soul_n but_o of_o that_o fire_n which_o be_v to_o prove_v the_o work_n of_o all_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n but_o then_o he_o must_v guard_v himself_o as_o well_o as_o he_o can_v from_o the_o charge_n of_o interpret_n this_o place_n otherwise_o than_o the_o latin_n have_v interpret_v it_o at_o florence_n which_o make_v it_o necessary_a for_o he_o to_o bring_v in_o his_o three_o question_n a_o &_o quomodo_fw-la probetur_fw-la whether_o and_o how_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v from_o this_o place_n that_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory_n for_o soul_n after_o this_o life_n in_o pursuance_n of_o which_o question_n he_o say_v what_o we_o have_v already_o cite_v now_o although_o in_o his_o interpretation_n of_o this_o text_n he_o can_v own_v as_o he_o do_v with_o great_a modesty_n and_o good_a reason_n that_o he_o do_v not_o follow_v bellarmine_n lensaeus_n vicus_n bonaventure_n in_o all_o thing_n yet_o when_o the_o name_n of_o a_o council_n lie_v cross_v to_o he_o no_o other_o kind_n of_o modesty_n will_v serve_v but_o some_o appearance_n at_o least_o of_o submission_n to_o it_o and_o therefore_o observe_v that_o the_o latin_a father_n think_v that_o purgatory_n be_v to_o be_v establish_v upon_o this_o place_n though_o the_o greek_a father_n dissent_v he_o also_o think_v it_o needful_a to_o gather_v it_o as_o well_o and_o solid_o as_o he_o can_v from_o this_o place_n too_o for_o by_o that_o time_n he_o have_v do_v his_o best_a prove_v be_v dwindle_v to_o gather_v and_o to_o such_o a_o way_n of_o gather_v too_o that_o the_o premise_n be_v consider_v i_o leave_v it_o to_o all_o impartial_a man_n to_o consider_v whether_o so_o judicious_a a_o man_n as_o estius_n be_v contend_v for_o the_o point_n or_o rather_o if_o the_o modest_a estius_n in_o the_o straight_o he_o be_v in_o do_v not_o choose_v to_o talk_v beneath_o himself_o in_o compliance_n with_o the_o latin_a father_n at_o florence_n so_o that_o at_o last_o we_o have_v here_o a_o example_n of_o the_o servitude_n of_o ingenuous_a mind_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o not_o of_o charge_v folly_n upon_o the_o papist_n out_o of_o their_o own_o author_n for_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o dean_n decline_v the_o do_v of_o whereas_o if_o he_o have_v say_v nay_o all_o that_o estius_n contend_v for_o from_o this_o place_n be_v that_o it_o can_v be_v conclude_v from_o hence_o that_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n although_o he_o make_v a_o hard_a shift_n to_o avoid_v fall_v foul_a with_o the_o florentine_a council_n here_o have_v then_o be_v no_o colour_n for_o accuse_v he_o of_o misquotation_n it_o have_v also_o do_v his_o business_n as_o well_o only_o this_o have_v be_v to_o charge_v folly_n upon_o estius_n and_o upon_o the_o latin_a father_n too_o which_o it_o seem_v the_o dean_n have_v no_o mind_n to_o do_v i_o proceed_v next_o to_o his_o charge_n upon_o the_o author_n of_o the_o devotion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o first_o he_o accuse_v he_o of_o quote_v escobar_n for_o that_o which_o he_o do_v not_o say_v in_o the_o place_n cite_v nay_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o it_o to_o be_v find_v in_o he_o there_o now_o to_o know_v whether_o this_o be_v so_o or_o not_o it_o be_v but_o fair_a to_o take_v the_o whole_a passage_n of_o that_o author_n for_o which_o he_o refer_v we_o to_o escobar_n and_o not_o as_o it_o be_v sly_o geld_v by_o the_o representer_n the_o passage_n be_v this_o they_o tell_v we_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a number_n of_o sin_n in_o their_o own_o nature_n venial_a which_o be_v so_o very_o inconsiderable_a that_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o they_o altogether_o will_v not_o deprive_v a_o man_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n or_o make_v up_o one_o mortal_a sin_n and_o for_o the_o pardon_n of_o which_o there_o be_v no_o need_n or_o occasion_n for_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n now_o escobar_n in_o the_o place_n cite_v tract_n 2._o exam._n 1_o chap._n 4._o in_o answer_n to_o that_o question_n n._n 15._o whether_o many_o venial_a sin_n of_o themselves_o and_o formal_o speak_v can_v make_v up_o one_o mortal_a sin_n say_v thus_o no_o because_o innumerable_a venial_a sin_n do_v not_o deprive_v a_o man_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n but_o the_o representer_n will_v not_o allow_v that_o there_o be_v one_o word_n of_o that_o passage_n at_o least_o to_o be_v find_v there_o that_o for_o the_o pardon_n of_o such_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o need_n or_o occasion_n for_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n but_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v find_v there_o for_o he_o say_v n._n 1._o that_o a_o venial_a sin_n be_v that_o which_o do_v not_o render_v a_o man_n worthy_a of_o eternal_a punishment_n and_o now_o if_o innumerable_a sin_n of_o this_o sort_n do_v not_o of_o themselves_o make_v up_o one_o mortal_a sin_n i_o think_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o take_v they_o altogether_o and_o there_o be_v no_o occasion_n for_o god_n mercy_n in_o the_o pardon_n of_o they_o unless_o it_o be_v mercy_n to_o pardon_v where_o there_o be_v no_o desert_n of_o punishment_n it_o be_v true_a escobar_n say_v that_o they_o be_v worthy_a of_o temporal_a punishment_n but_o our_o author_n be_v not_o oblige_v to_o take_v any_o notice_n of_o that_o because_o that_o which_o he_o complain_v of_o be_v not_o that_o these_o doctrine_n bring_v man_n fortune_n in_o this_o world_n into_o danger_n but_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o they_o man_n be_v in_o wonderful_a danger_n of_o be_v cheat_v in_o a_o matter_n of_o so_o great_a moment_n as_o their_o eternal_a salvation_n so_o that_o although_o the_o representer_n profess_v that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v contrary_a to_o their_o belief_n yet_o at_o least_o he_o must_v confess_v that_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o escobar_n and_o therefore_o that_o he_o have_v wrong_v our_o author_n in_o charge_v he_o here_o with_o misquotation_n the_o same_o book_n say_v in_o another_o place_n p._n 56._o that_o their_o say_v the_o same_o thing_n so_o often_o over_o in_o their_o jesus_n psalter_n be_v not_o contrive_v to_o help_v and_o assist_v attention_n etc._n etc._n but_o out_o of_o pure_a vanity_n and_o ostentation_n or_o as_o it_o be_v to_o flatter_v our_o b._n saviour_n or_o the_o saint_n they_o pray_v to_o and_o this_o the_o representer_n call_v throw_v

by_o which_o i_o guess_v he_o will_v be_v content_a that_o the_o author_n be_v hang_v but_o one_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o know_v first_o what_o he_o have_v do_v to_o deserve_v it_o why_o say_v the_o representer_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n he_o give_v of_o our_o devotion_n what_o that_o all_o who_o use_v those_o form_n of_o devotion_n which_o the_o author_n censure_n have_v no_o other_o end_n or_o intention_n but_o pure_a vanity_n and_o ostentation_n or_o flattery_n so_o indeed_o the_o representer_n will_v insinuate_v but_o as_o i_o shall_v make_v appear_v the_o author_n meaning_n be_v that_o the_o repetition_n themselves_o which_o he_o speak_v of_o be_v pure_o vain_a and_o do_v not_o serve_v to_o any_o good_a and_o prudent_a end_n for_o which_o he_o chief_o blame_v the_o contriver_n of_o they_o as_o the_o word_n plain_o enough_o show_v but_o what_o reason_n he_o have_v to_o say_v this_o be_v lay_v down_o just_a before_o in_o these_o word_n their_o manual_n of_o devotion_n be_v so_o full_a of_o tautology_n and_o vain_a repetition_n than_o they_o must_v needs_o come_v under_o the_o censure_n of_o our_o b._n saviour_n matth._n 6._o though_o they_o use_v his_o holy_a name_n for_o so_o in_o the_o jesus_n psalter_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o manual_a of_o prayer_n and_o litany_n print_v at_o paris_n in_o english_a an._n 1682._o in_o a_o litany_n of_o
