lutheran_n church_n and_o no_o other_o my_o judgement_n and_o conscience_n therefore_o be_v as_o much_o constrain_v as_o that_o of_o the_o papist_n and_o our_o separation_n from_o popery_n will_v

scripture_n as_o with_o the_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n each_o one_o best_o understand_v it_o and_o if_o we_o will_v continue_v a_o reformation_n we_o must_v not_o submit_v again_o our_o

the_o spirit_n of_o each_o particular_a congregation_n a_o limit_v confine_a spirit_n to_o some_o particular_a tenet_n with_o a_o exclusion_n of_o all_o other_o but_o look_v on_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o our_o reformation_n as_o it_o include_v all_o reform_a congregation_n distinct_a from_o popery_n there_o be_v a_o holy_a extension_n of_o spirit_n and_o liberty_n for_o to_o be_v either_o
