the_o catholic_n contemn_v these_o folly_n the_o scripture_n can_v be_v the_o judge_n of_o these_o and_o the_o like_a controversy_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o in_o these_o and_o such_o like_a controversy_n which_o be_v about_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n some_o certain_a judge_n be_v needful_a who_o may_v decide_v the_o same_o and_o plain_o pronounce_v that_o this_o be_v true_a and_o not_o the_o other_o but_o now_o i_o will_v prove_v with_o two_o argument_n that_o the_o scripture_n itself_o can_v be_v this_o judge_n the_o first_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o that_o which_o i_o say_v before_o in_o this_o manner_n the_o judge_n so_o ought_v to_o pronounce_v sentence_n that_o both_o party_n at_o variance_n may_v well_o understand_v it_o otherwise_o he_o shall_v pronounce_v it_o to_o no_o purpose_n but_o the_o scripture_n when_o

the_o sense_n thereof_o be_v obscure_a and_o doubtful_a which_o fall_v out_o often_o as_o i_o have_v show_v above_o can_v so_o plain_o pronounce_v sentence_n that_o it_o may_v be_v understand_v of_o both_o party_n at_o variance_n for_o if_o it_o shall_v clear_o pronounce_v sentence_n in_o any_o such_o case_n the_o sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n shall_v not_o be_v obscure_a but_o plain_a and_o manifest_a which_o be_v contrary_a to_o our_o supposition_n therefore_o in_o such_o a_o case_n the_o scripture_n can_v be_v judge_n perchance_o you_o will_v say_v that_o although_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n in_o one_o place_n be_v obscure_a yet_o notwithstanding_o in_o some_o other_o place_n it_o be_v very_a plain_n and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n by_o that_o place_n which_o be_v clear_a may_v pronounce_v sentence_n of_o that_o place_n which_o be_v obscure_a i_o answer_v the_o heretic_n harp_n on_o this_o string_n but_o in_o vain_a for_o first_o if_o it_o be_v so_o wherefore_o by_o that_o mean_n do_v they_o not_o end_v all_o controversy_n between_o they_o wherefore_o i_o say_v do_v not_o the_o lutheran_n and_o the_o caluinist_n see_v they_o so_o long_o contend_v about_o some_o obscure_a place_n run_v present_o to_o another_o which_o be_v plain_a or_o if_o they_o do_v so_o why_o make_v they_o not_o a_o end_n of_o all_o their_o strife_n here_o they_o be_v at_o a_o nonplus_n and_o know_v not_o what_o to_o say_v furthermore_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v plain_a be_v one_o thing_n but_o that_o the_o sense_n be_v plain_a be_v another_o for_o the_o plainness_n of_o the_o word_n depend_v upon_o the_o knowledge_n of_o grammar_n but_o the_o sense_n upon_o the_o intention_n and_o counsel_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o doubtless_o oftentimes_o it_o may_v happen_v that_o one_o may_v be_v perfect_a in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o grammar_n and_o yet_o very_o ignorant_a of_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o that_o it_o may_v fall_v out_o very_o well_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o scripture_n may_v be_v plain_a yet_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n as_o they_o be_v intend_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n may_v be_v obscure_a to_o show_v this_o to_o the_o eye_n i_o will_v declare_v it_o with_o this_o example_n the_o word_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o scripture_n be_v these_o this_o be_v my_o body_n this_o be_v my_o

whether_o they_o be_v christian_n jew_n turk_n or_o ethnic_n but_o about_o the_o sense_n of_o they_o intend_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n almost_o infinite_a controversy_n be_v among_o christian_n the_o

it_o may_v be_v doubt_v and_o that_o with_o great_a reason_n what_o the_o proper_a sense_n of_o they_o be_v and_o how_o they_o may_v agree_v one_o with_o another_o moreover_o i_o say_v that_o
