but_o produce_v this_o text_n for_o themselves_o against_o our_o usage_n and_o doctrine_n say_v that_o if_o our_o lord_n have_v not_o treat_v of_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o these_o word_n he_o will_v not_o have_v distinguish_v between_o eat_v and_o drink_v least_o of_o all_o between_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n but_o since_o he_o so_o accurate_o distinguish_v between_o these_o thing_n he_o insinuate_v his_o discourse_n to_o be_v concern_v the_o reception_n of_o the_o eucharist_n etc._n etc._n but_o say_v the_o cardinal_n these_o thing_n be_v easy_o throw_v off_o by_o observe_v that_o in_o this_o very_a chapter_n jesus_n say_v not_o long_o before_o he_o that_o come_v to_o i_o shall_v never_o hunger_n and_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o i_o shall_v never_o thirst_v for_o in_o these_o word_n which_o it_o be_v plain_a do_v not_o belong_v to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n our_o lord_n plain_o distinguish_v hunger_n from_o thirst_n which_o be_v equivalent_a to_o his_o distinction_n between_o eat_v and_o drink_v for_o hunger_n refer_v to_o eat_v and_o thirst_v to_o drink_v therefore_o from_o the_o distinction_n between_o eat_v and_o drink_v no_o solid_a argument_n can_v be_v draw_v to_o infer_v the_o discourse_n to_o be_v of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n in_o like_a manner_n the_o distinction_n between_o flesh_n and_o blood_n avail_v nothing_o to_o their_o purpose_n but_o rather_o against_o they_o because_o the_o flesh_n be_v not_o distinguish_v from_o the_o blood_n after_o any_o sort_n but_o only_o as_o they_o be_v separate_v as_o meat_n from_o drink_n but_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o real_a separation_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v represent_v only_o but_o in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v actual_a and_o according_a to_o the_o thing_n itself_o and_o if_o it_o be_v urge_v that_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o blood_n be_v here_o discourse_v of_o under_o the_o notion_n of_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o not_o according_a to_o what_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n the_o discourse_n run_v upon_o the_o flesh_n in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o the_o blood_n in_o the_o sacrament_n separate_v one_o from_o another_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v afford_v by_o what_o have_v be_v already_o say_v viz._n that_o our_o lord_n have_v speak_v of_o himself_o before_o as_o of_o one_o that_o take_v away_o hunger_n and_o of_o one_o that_o take_v away_o thirst_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o also_o infer_v from_o hence_o that_o he_o speak_v of_o himself_o as_o under_o that_o species_n of_o the_o sacrament_n whereby_o he_o take_v away_o hunger_n and_o that_o species_n of_o the_o sacrament_n

make_v this_o construction_n of_o it_o that_o i_o be_o one_o of_o those_o who_o bear_v a_o due_a regard_n to_o the_o authority_n and_o tradition_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n as_o i_o believe_v you_o to_o be_v another_o for_o which_o reason_n i_o think_v it_o more_o needful_a to_o remove_v so_o great_a a_o prejudice_n out_o of_o your_o way_n as_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o foresay_a

chapter_n any_o more_o than_o other_o part_n of_o christianity_n i_o be_o not_o oblige_v to_o encounter_v the_o authority_n of_o all_o the_o ancient_n or_o of_o the_o whole_a church_n nay_o that_o in_o this_o matter_n i_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o entrench_v upon_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n itself_o indeed_o that_o council_n will_v have_v i_o to_o believe_v that_o not_o one_o of_o the_o various_a interpretation_n of_o the_o father_n and_o doctor_n make_v against_o the_o communion_n in_o one_o kind_n but_o i_o hope_v i_o may_v be_v excuse_v if_o i_o can_v believe_v that_o which_o several_a man_n of_o high_a rank_n in_o their_o own_o church_n be_v not_o able_a to_o believe_v and_o as_o for_o that_o doctrine_n that_o christ_n be_v proper_o eat_v in_o the_o eucharist_n i_o ought_v to_o be_v excuse_v too_o if_o i_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n believe_v it_o or_o else_o those_o father_n must_v be_v condemn_v who_o believe_v the_o capernaite_n to_o be_v a_o perverse_a sort_n of_o man_n for_o turn_v our_o saviour_n word_n in_o this_o chapter_n to_o so_o inhuman_a and_o absurd_a a_o sense_n as_o if_o he_o have_v exhort_v they_o to_o eat_v a_o man_n flesh_n according_a to_o the_o propriety_n of_o those_o word_n for_o no_o man_n can_v say_v that_o this_o be_v either_o inhuman_a or_o absurd_a who_o believe_v the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n and_o that_o christ_n be_v proper_o eat_v in_o the_o eucharist_n so_o that_o for_o what_o i_o can_v see_v this_o chapter_n of_o st._n john_n instead_o of_o afford_v a_o solid_a argument_n for_o that_o conclusion_n when_o it_o come_v to_o be_v well_o consider_v upon_o the_o ground_n of_o reason_n and_o authority_n do_v at_o last_o yield_v a_o terrible_a objection_n against_o it_o i_o have_v think_v of_o all_o these_o thing_n with_o the_o liberty_n of_o one_o that_o love_v truth_n not_o without_o due_a regard_n to_o the_o ancient_a doctor_n of_o the_o church_n our_o common_a master_n have_v teach_v i_o to_o call_v no_o man_n master_n upon_o earth_n yet_o i_o never_o refuse_v the_o help_n of_o his_o minister_n to_o guide_v i_o into_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o truth_n and_o since_o i_o have_v be_v able_a to_o use_v that_o help_n i_o have_v still_o value_v in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o assistance_n which_o be_v offer_v i_o from_o the_o primitive_a bishop_n and_o father_n and_o this_o liberty_n i_o have_v be_v encourage_v to_o use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n not_o only_o for_o judge_v of_o point_n which_o she_o have_v not_o determine_v but_o those_o also_o which_o she_o have_v

with_o the_o apostle_n for_o ever_o that_o be_v so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v to_o guide_v they_o into_o the_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n and_o by_o they_o to_o guide_v the_o church_n in_o all_o after-age_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n in_o this_o discourse_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o his_o apostle_n which_o can_v be_v apply_v to_o any_o age_n of_o the_o church_n after_o they_o and_o therefore_o what_o be_v and_o what_o be_v not_o limit_v to_o they_o must_v be_v argue_v out_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n themselves_o which_o be_v say_v and_o last_o though_o you_o will_v not_o have_v this_o promise_v limit_v to_o the_o person_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o annex_v to_o their_o function_n as_o in_o some_o sense_n i_o grant_v it_o may_v be_v yet_o you_o ought_v to_o have_v take_v notice_n that_o the_o promise_n be_v however_o limit_v by_o a_o condition_n even_o in_o the_o word_n forego_v and_o follow_v the_o promise_n if_o you_o love_v i_o keep_v my_o commandment_n and_o there_o the_o condition_n be_v once_o express_v for_o it_o follow_v and_o i_o will_v pray_v the_o father_n and_o he_o shall_v give_v you_o another_o comforter_n that_o he_o may_v abide_v with_o you_o for_o ever_o even_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o now_o mark_v once_o again_o what_o follow_v who_o the_o world_n can_v receive_v because_o it_o see_v he_o not_o neither_o

from_o their_o obedience_n as_o to_o the_o last_o if_o you_o have_v prove_v such_o a_o succession_n of_o infallible_a teacher_n as_o you_o speak_v of_o yet_o i_o tell_v you_o once_o more_o that_o the_o hard_a part_n of_o your_o task_n will_v be_v still_o behind_o which_o be_v to_o prove_v that_o you_o have_v have_v all_o along_o and_o still_o have_v that_o succession_n which_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o do_v in_o your_o next_o if_o you_o can_v if_o it_o be_v but_o for_o the_o instruction_n of_o a_o layman_n that_o desire_v to_o be_v lead_v into_o all_o truth_n necessary_a or_o even_o profitable_a for_o his_o salvation_n and_o because_o i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o lose_v your_o labour_n i_o will_v open_v my_o great_a difficulty_n against_o this_o belief_n i_o be_o sure_a you_o can_v go_v about_o this_o work_n without_o take_v scripture_n in_o to_o furnish_v out_o your_o argument_n now_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o bring_v i_o such_o scripture_n which_o shall_v at_o least_o make_v it_o as_o evident_a that_o your_o church_n be_v always_o to_o have_v a_o succession_n of_o infallible_a teacher_n as_o it_o be_v to_o i_o from_o divers_a other_o scripture_n evident_a that_o your_o pastor_n have_v most_o certain_o contradict_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o when_o you_o have_v do_v this_o you_o shall_v hear_v far_o from_o i_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n your_o loose_a affirmation_n concern_v the_o catholic_n church_n have_v be_v so_o often_o answer_v that_o you_o need_v not_o wonder_v that_o a_o layman_n of_o our_o church_n can_v tell_v what_o to_o say_v to_o they_o but_o to_o come_v to_o that_o wherein_o i_o be_o particular_o concern_v you_o be_v disturb_v at_o my_o say_n that_o the_o worship_n doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v so_o extreme_o dangerous_a that_o nothing_o but_o invincible_a ignorance_n of_o which_o god_n only_o can_v judge_v can_v give_v we_o any_o reasonable_a hope_n of_o their_o salvation_n who_o live_v and_o die_v in_o their_o communion_n now_o sure_o the_o uncharitableness_n of_o this_o do_v not_o lie_v in_o suppose_v that_o invincible_a ignorance_n will_v be_v pleadable_a in_o this_o case_n for_o it_o be_v a_o plea_n which_o will_v go_v a_o great_a way_n among_o those_o of_o the_o roman_a communion_n which_o i_o say_v with_o the_o more_o confidence_n because_o in_o the_o romish_a country_n where_o i_o have_v be_v the_o people_n seem_v to_o i_o to_o have_v the_o fair_a claim_n to_o the_o benefit_n of_o ignorance_n that_o can_v be_v well_o imagine_v among_o christian_n now_o since_o at_o last_o you_o be_v bring_v in_o this_o pamphlet_n of_o you_o to_o agree_v with_o protestant_n that_o ignorance_n will_v save_v man_n and_o that_o we_o yield_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o people_n have_v a_o indisputable_a right_n to_o it_o be_v not_o the_o protestant_n charitable_a to_o a_o high_a degree_n if_o this_o will_v not_o please_v you_o i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o will_n surely_n sir_n you_o do_v not_o expect_v that_o protestant_n shall_v believe_v and_o say_v that_o you_o with_o all_o your_o error_n about_o you_o be_v in_o as_o safe_a a_o way_n to_o salvation_n as_o they_o themselves_o who_o have_v renounce_v they_o if_o this_o can_v be_v what_o i_o pray_v you_o make_v our_o forefather_n suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v separate_v from_o your_o

i_o know_v nothing_o else_o can_v or_o ever_o be_v pretend_v to_o justify_v our_o separation_n and_o this_o alone_a one_o will_v think_v may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o vindicate_v my_o assertion_n from_o be_v uncharitable_a but_o perhaps_o i_o may_v do_v it_o more_o by_o and_o by_o but_o you_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o nevertheless_o protestant_n be_v as_o uncharitable_a as_o papist_n and_o

how_o do_v you_o prove_v this_o sir_n why_o thus_o protestant_n only_o allow_v salvation_n to_o papist_n upon_o invincible_a ignorance_n and_o papist_n do_v the_o same_o to_o protestant_n i_o must_v confess_v that_o in_o this_o paper_n of_o you_o you_o grant_v salvation_n to_o protestant_n who_o live_v pious_o and_o repent_v sincerere_o of_o all_o offence_n and_o through_o invincible_a ignorance_n remain_v in_o that_o communion_n now_o whatever_o truth_n there_o be_v in_o the_o say_v itself_o yet_o from_o you_o we_o look_v upon_o this_o concession_n as_o a_o piece_n of_o new_a
