have_v the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v due_o convince_v it_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o man_n which_o err_v may_v ●e_v convince_v by_o any_o particular_a person_n whatsoever_o for_o it_o

of_o particular_a person_n which_o have_v due_o convince_v the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o all_o her_o assembly_n of_o such_o error_n first_o for_o the_o martyr_n in_o our_o church_n you_o have_v

the_o smoky_a furnace_n of_o the_o popish_a church_n can_v not_o so_o clere_o discern_v and_o sudden_o enter_v into_o the_o heavenly_a and_o beautiful_a order_n of_o a_o true_a establish_a church_n

any_o true_a establish_a church_n upon_o the_o earth_n of_o so_o many_o hundred_o year_n never_o since_o the_o general_a defection_n of_o antichrist_n no_o marvel_n i_o say_v if_o they_o err_v in_o

be_v that_o have_v lay_v this_o pattern_n which_o you_o speak_v of_o before_o she_o which_o be_v not_o lay_v before_o those_o bless_a martyr_n and_o convince_v here_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o
