of_o the_o live_n to_o the_o dead_a that_o the_o saint_n do_v not_o pray_v for_o the_o live_n they_o prove_v thus_o because_o the_o saint_n know_v who_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o who_o damn_v they_o can_v not_o pray_v for_o those_o they_o know_v shall_v be_v save_v since_o their_o prayer_n will_v be_v superfluous_a see_v whether_o they_o pray_v or_o no_o they_o will_v be_v save_v but_o shall_v they_o pray_v for_o those_o that_o shall_v be_v damn_v they_o will_v not_o obtain_v what_o they_o pray_v for_o and_o so_o will_v not_o be_v happy_a for_o he_o be_v only_o happy_a who_o have_v all_o

either_o a_o man_n merit_n or_o reward_n again_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o in_o a_o place_n where_o they_o can_v merit_v but_o only_o where_o they_o receive_v and_o therefore_o by_o their_o prayer_n or_o other_o good_a work_n can_v neither_o merit_v any_o good_a for_o themselves_o or_o for_o other_o again_o we_o read_v in_o the_o gospel_n of_o st._n luke_n that_o abraham_n say_v to_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o rich_a man_n that_o be_v in_o hell_n there_o be_v a_o great_a gulf_n fix_v between_o we_o and_o you_o where_o by_o gulf_n he_o mean_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o disagreement_n there_o be_v between_o the_o good_a and_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v so_o great_a that_o the_o saint_n be_v neither_o sensible_a nor_o have_v any_o compassion_n for_o the_o damn_a now_o if_o so_o neither_o can_v we_o suppose_v that_o they_o pray_v for_o they_o at_o last_o he_o attribute_n to_o some_o of_o they_o the_o belief_n that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o eat_v flesh_n upon_o very_o ridiculous_a ground_n but_o such_o as_o have_v nothing_o common_a with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o manichee_n it_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v evident_a from_o this_o book_n of_o alanus_n 1_o sy_n that_o he_o own_v there_o be_v several_a sort_n of_o heretic_n in_o the_o country_n of_o the_o albigenses_n manichees_n or_o cathari_n who_o reject_v the_o principal_a article_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n 2_o dly_z another_o sort_n of_o people_n who_o renounce_v all_o the_o chief_a doctrine_n of_o the_o romish_a religion_n which_o the_o protestant_n reject_v afterward_o and_o since_o he_o quote_v no_o author_n in_o particular_a it_o be_v obvious_a to_o judge_n that_o he_o make_v but_o small_a distinction_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o several_a objection_n which_o he_o pretend_v to_o refute_v and_o which_o he_o have_v frequent_o assign_v to_o the_o albigenses_n in_o general_a which_o without_o doubt_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v attribute_v but_o to_o some_o of_o they_o and_o which_o

xvii_o the_o calumny_n raise_v against_o the_o albigenses_n refute_v by_o the_o conference_n at_o montreal_n those_o who_o will_v reflect_v a_o little_a upon_o the_o innocence_n of_o the_o primitive_a

devil_n have_v find_v this_o method_n succeed_v in_o the_o first_o beginning_n of_o christianity_n be_v not_o so_o careless_a of_o his_o interest_n to_o forget_v to_o employ_v the_o same_o against_o those_o who_o oppose_v themselves_o to_o the_o corruption_n which_o he_o have_v introduce_v and_o which_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o substitute_n instead_o of_o the_o religion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n he_o make_v use_v of_o the_o same_o method_n against_o those_o of_o the_o reform_a religion_n whoever_o read_v the_o write_n of_o the_o jesuit_n shall_v find_v that_o they_o have_v accuse_v our_o reformer_n of_o the_o same_o heresy_n which_o the_o devil_n raise_v to_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o progress_n of_o christianity_n the_o jesuit_n gauthier_n alone_o may_v be_v a_o sufficient_a witness_n hereof_o in_o his_o chronological_a table_n and_o we_o may_v well_o say_v that_o in_o this_o point_n he_o have_v at_o least_o equalise_v the_o impudence_n of_o
be_v give_v for_o you_o and_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n which_o shall_v be_v shed_v for_o many_o for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o charlemagne_n understand_v by_o the_o word_n image_n a_o prototype_n like_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o law_n with_o respect_n to_o which_o it_o be_v true_a what_o many_o of_o the_o father_n have_v say_v that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v the_o body_n and_o the_o truth_n though_o otherwise_o consider_v as_o sacrament_n they_o be_v sacred_a sign_n which_o can_v be_v confound_v with_o the_o thing_n signify_v by_o they_o without_o renounce_v the_o light_n of_o common_a sense_n moreover_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v that_o charlemagne_n never_o say_v that_o the_o eucharist_n be_v proper_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n if_o he_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n to_o have_v say_v concern_v the_o eucharist_n this_o be_v the_o image_n of_o my_o body_n take_v the_o word_n as_o a_o prototype_n and_o a_o shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v yet_o he_o always_o hold_v that_o it_o be_v his_o body_n in_o a_o sacramental_a sense_n for_o he_o never_o speak_v of_o the_o eucharist_n as_o the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n without_o add_v the_o restriction_n of_o sacrament_n or_o of_o mystery_n if_o say_v he_o he_o hear_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o body_n and_o of_o the_o blood_n once_o mention_v and_o twice_o together_o he_o have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o body_n and_o of_o his_o blood_n and_o last_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o body_n and_o of_o the_o blood_n can_v be_v call_v a_o image_n now_o the_o word_n mystery_n according_a to_o the_o constant_a use_n of_o the_o church_n proper_o signify_v the_o symbol_n the_o figure_n the_o sacred_a sign_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n last_o we_o ought_v to_o observe_v that_o though_o he_o say_v that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o he_o never_o say_v that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v adore_v indeed_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v draw_v up_o a_o impeachment_n against_o these_o worshipper_n of_o image_n upon_o this_o article_n and_o a_o very_a important_a one_o too_o because_o it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o the_o greek_a worshipper_n of_o image_n do_v not_o adore_v the_o eucharist_n but_o give_v only_o a_o simple_a veneration_n to_o it_o like_v to_o that_o which_o they_o
