of_o any_o council_n which_o if_o they_o do_v not_o as_o indeed_o they_o can_v then_o say_v i_o in_o like_a sort_n the_o profession_n of_o faith_n set_v down_o by_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n and_o

they_o be_v to_o swear_v unto_o which_o article_n though_o they_o be_v indeed_o new_a coin_a as_o the_o foundation_n of_o a_o new_a church_n yet_o sir_n humphrey_n be_v his_o mother_n champion_n will_v not_o i_o suppose_v yield_v she_o or_o her_o doctrine_n to_o be_v new_a as_o yet_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o can_v deny_v but_o those_o article_n receive_v some_o kind_n of_o force_n whereby_o protestant_n be_v more_o bind_v to_o believe_v and_o teach_v they_o then_o before_o from_o whence_o i_o may_v evident_o infer_v that_o a_o new_a definition_n or_o declaration_n do_v not_o

too_o wise_a to_o learn_v he_o be_v to_o know_v two_o thing_n in_o this_o matter_n first_o that_o we_o catholic_n do_v not_o call_v all_o point_n of_o faith_n howsoever_o teach_v declare_v or_o define_v article_n as_o he_o seem_v to_o think_v and_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o his_o error_n may_v be_v in_o that_o those_o great_a main_a point_n of_o his_o church_n doctrine_n call_v the_o 39_o

be_v not_o to_o be_v call_v article_n because_o they_o be_v sufficient_o contain_v in_o other_o and_o deduce_v out_o of_o they_o other_o divine_n give_v other_o definition_n of_o a_o article_n of_o
