the_o same_o altogether_o but_o heresy_n ever_o consist_v only_o in_o some_o matter_n of_o erroneous_a judgement_n and_o false_a opinion_n but_o the_o teacher_n thereof_o never_o go_v about_o to_o

yea_o and_o the_o holy_a mass_n itself_o place_v instead_o thereof_o in_o some_o place_n chapter_n and_o psalm_n ill_o translate_v into_o the_o vulgar_a tongue_n &_o in_o some_o other_o place_n

to_o these_o new_a invention_n forsooth_o must_v the_o common_a people_n be_v compel_v to_o come_v and_o to_o forsake_v &_o renounce_v the_o service_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n leave_v by_o god_n almighty_a and_o continue_v ever_o through_o out_o all_o generation_n as_o it_o must_v do_v manger_n all_o protestant_n head_n even_o unto_o the_o world_n end_n the_o xiii_o reason_n doctrine_n that_o church_n who_o doctrine_n tend_v to_o mortification_n and_o holiness_n of_o life_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o true_a church_n and_o consequent_o direct_v by_o god_n holy_a spirit_n and_o contrariwise_o that_o sect_n or_o congregation_n which_o teach_v the_o contrary_a be_v most_o undoubted_o false_a and_o consequent_o guide_v by_o a_o evil_a spirit_n this_o be_v so_o manifest_a as_o it_o need_v no_o proof_n for_o every_o man_n know_v that_o the_o catholic_a church_n be_v call_v holy_a because_o it_o profess_v or_o teach_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v holy_a now_o if_o a_o man_n consider_v du_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n he_o shall_v find_v it_o to_o be_v of_o the_o former_a sort_n and_o easy_o he_o may_v perceive_v the_o doctrine_n of_o this_o new_a religion_n to_o be_v of_o the_o latter_a but_o i_o will_v not_o here_o speak_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o catholic_n and_o protestant_n although_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o comparison_n in_o life_n for_o that_o every_o one_o see_v and_o easy_o confess_v the_o catholic_n to_o live_v most_o uprightlie_o &_o saintlike_a but_o i_o speak_v of_o that_o which_o their_o religion_n teach_v they_o to_o do_v for_o of_o that_o especial_o our_o lord_n mean_v when_o he_o say_v 7._o math._n 7._o you_o shall_v know_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n first_o therefore_o to_o declare_v this_o point_n if_o you_o compare_v the_o clergy_n of_o the_o roman_a religion_n with_o these_o new_a clergy_n man_n you_o may_v see_v the_o order_n and_o institution_n of_o the_o one_o sort_n to_o move_v they_o to_o mortification_n &_o to_o the_o contempt_n of_o earthly_a thing_n and_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o other_o to_o prick_v they_o forward_o to_o all_o vanity_n &_o to_o carnal_a liberty_n for_o a_o priest_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n receave_v in_o a_o most_o solemn_a manner_n seven_o order_n whereof_o three_o be_v call_v holy_a because_o they_o be_v about_o sacred_a and_o holy_a thing_n as_o the_o body_n &_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n holy_a vessel_n &c_n &c_n and_o every_o thing_n which_o the_o say_a priest_n must_v use_v be_v holy_a and_o therefore_o there_o be_v require_v in_o he_o the_o great_a purity_n possible_o to_o be_v have_v so_o as_o he_o must_v have_v and_o thought_n free_a from_o all_o carnality_n and_o worldly_a thing_n and_o for_o such_o like_a cause_n he_o be_v restrain_v from_o marriage_n although_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o honourable_a &_o institute_v by_o god_n himself_o but_o yet_o who_o so_o be_v yoke_v therein_o must_v needs_o apply_v himself_o to_o worldly_a affair_n and_o so_o be_v divide_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 7._o 1._o cor._n 7._o and_o because_o he_o be_v restrain_v from_o marriage_n &_o bind_v to_o live_v chaste_a or_o continent_n he_o may_v not_o use_v any_o trim_v or_o trick_v up_o of_o himself_o in_o amorous_a attire_n nor_o use_v any_o dalliance_n or_o fondness_n with_o woman_n but_o ever_o remember_v that_o he_o be_v as_o a_o dead_a man_n in_o regard_n of_o such_o thing_n he_o must_v be_v far_o from_o such_o lightness_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o protestant_a minister_n have_v receive_v no_o order_n but_o a_o certain_a kind_n of_o deaconshippe_n and_o ministershippe_n of_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o have_v no_o holy_a or_o sacred_a thing_n to_o deal_v withal_o but_o leave_v to_o all_o liberty_n of_o win_v &_o rewin_v which_o he_o can_v ordinary_o do_v without_o woo_v woe_n he_o can_v handsome_o without_o he_o something_o trick_n &_o trim_a up_o himself_o to_o allure_v &_o please_v the_o eye_n of_o his_o sweet_a hart_n must_v needs_o go_v trick_o with_o fair_a starch_a ruff_n fine_a mousache_n trim_a tuscalonian_n use_v amorous_a glance_n yea_o &_o that_o sometime_o when_o they_o be_v read_v their_o chapter_n in_o the_o church_n with_o a_o thousand_o suchlike_a fond_a &_o foolish_a inconvenience_n which_o ensue_v thereupon_o furthermore_o the_o roman_a religion_n teach_v restitution_n of_o good_n wrongful_o take_v and_o of_o all_o wrong_n whatsoever_o which_o bridle_v and_o restrain_v people_n from_o bribery_n extortion_n theft_n usury_n simony_n &_o from_o such_o like_a but_o the_o protestant_n meddle_v little_o with_o such_o doctrine_n leave_v all_o at_o large_a to_o his_o follower_n without_o restraint_n of_o any_o such_o crime_n the_o catholic_a religion_n teach_v observation_n of_o vow_n &_o promise_n which_o must_v needs_o cause_v great_a trust_n &_o fidelity_n in_o the_o professor_n thereof_o the_o protestant_n teach_v that_o they_o bound_v not_o in_o conscience_n which_o open_v the_o door_n to_o distrust_v and_o make_v the_o people_n that_o one_o will_v not_o trust_v another_o but_o must_v have_v he_o in_o band_n with_o surety_n &_o with_o all_o fastnes_n possible_a to_o be_v devise_v the_o catholic_a religion_n teach_v abstinence_n &_o fast_v which_o mortify_v our_o body_n &_o enrich_v our_o country_n the_o protestant_n teach_v to_o eat_v flesh_n &_o all_o kind_n of_o meat_n every_o day_n as_o often_o as_o the_o belly_n desire_v which_o cause_v plenty_n of_o lust_n in_o the_o carcase_n &_o dearth_n &_o scarcity_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n the_o catholic_a religion_n forbid_v landlord_n to_o raise_v their_o rent_n except_o urgent_a occasion_n drive_v they_o so_o to_o do_v by_o which_o prohibition_n infinite_a number_n of_o people_n be_v benefit_v &_o help_v the_o protestant_n teach_v the_o landlord_n to_o do_v what_o he_o listen_v with_o his_o own_o ruyne_v and_o utter_o begger_v
themselves_o slave_n to_o ambition_n as_o they_o do_v in_o scotland_n or_o by_o follow_v lust_n and_o lechery_n or_o of_o some_o such_o like_a brutish_a occasion_n and_o never_o indeed_o upon_o any_o
