other_o thing_n of_o like_a nature_n that_o so_o we_o may_v distinguish_v and_o discern_v the_o thing_n that_o differ_v i_o shall_v instance_n here_o only_o in_o four_o thing_n that_o be_v partly_o of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o type_n but_o yet_o not_o exact_o the_o same_o 1._o the_o difference_n between_o a_o type_n and_o a_o simile_n a_o type_n do_v belong_v indeed_o to_o that_o argument_n or_o notion_n in_o logic_n but_o with_o this_o difference_n this_o distinction_n will_v show_v you_o the_o difference_n between_o they_o that_o there_o be_v typus_fw-la arbitrarius_fw-la and_o typus_fw-la fixus_fw-la &_o institutus_fw-la a_o arbitrary_a type_n be_v a_o similitude_n or_o comparison_n so_o marriage_n be_v a_o similitude_n or_o comparison_n by_o which_o the_o apostle_n set_v out_o the_o mystical_a union_n between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n ephes_n 5._o but_o yet_o marriage_n be_v not_o a_o type_n for_o than_o we_o shall_v make_v it_o a_o sacrament_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v you_o know_v it_o be_v institute_v for_o another_o end_n before_o the_o gospel_n come_v into_o the_o world_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n but_o not_o a_o sacrament_n for_o by_o that_o argument_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o thousand_o sacrament_n so_o rider_n on_o white_a horse_n be_v resemblance_n use_v in_o scripture_n to_o set_v out_o christ_n and_o the_o angel_n but_o yet_o not_o proper_o type_n of_o they_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o they_o be_v never_o institute_v and_o design_v by_o god_n for_o that_o end_n to_o represent_v christ_n and_o the_o gospel_n they_o be_v only_o occasional_o make_v use_n of_o there_o be_v a_o wide_a difference_n between_o the_o occasional_a use_n of_o a_o thing_n in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o similitude_n or_o comparison_n and_o the_o designment_n or_o institution_n of_o it_o for_o that_o end_n and_o use_v as_o if_o christ_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o feast_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o marriage-supper_n this_o be_v a_o very_a true_a and_o fit_a comparison_n but_o for_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o be_v design_v and_o set_v apart_o by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n to_o represent_v christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n this_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o a_o high_a nature_n and_o put_v they_o into_o a_o sacramental_a nature_n and_o relation_n to_o he_o 2._o the_o difference_n between_o a_o type_n and_o a_o parable_n a_o parable_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o sacred_a similitude_n we_o common_o take_v it_o as_o the_o scripture_n do_v for_o such_o a_o similitude_n wherein_z not_o only_o the_o truth_n and_o mind_n of_o god_n be_v the_o scope_n and_o matter_n of_o it_o but_o whereof_o god_n himself_o be_v the_o author_n as_o in_o the_o four_o evangelist_n we_o read_v of_o the_o parable_n of_o christ_n to_o call_v they_o fable_n as_o grotius_n do_v haec_fw-la fabula_fw-la indicat_fw-la etc._n etc._n be_v a_o slight_a and_o a_o irreverent_a expression_n a_o parable_n there_o be_v the_o same_o with_o a_o similitude_n only_o have_v god_n himself_o for_o its_o author_n but_o in_o a_o type_n the_o lord_n do_v not_o only_o occasional_o use_v such_o or_o such_o a_o simile_n but_o set_v such_o a_o thing_n apart_o set_v a_o stamp_n of_o institution_n upon_o it_o and_o so_o make_v it_o a_o ordinance_n to_o hold_v forth_o christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n 3._o what_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o a_o type_n and_o a_o ceremony_n this_o be_v only_o that_o which_o be_v between_o the_o genus_fw-la and_o species_n for_o all_o the_o ceremony_n be_v type_n but_o all_o type_n be_v not_o ceremony_n the_o pillar_n of_o cloud_n and_o fire_n be_v a_o type_n but_o not_o a_o ceremony_n a_o ceremony_n be_v some_o law_n or_o external_a observation_n prescribe_v unto_o they_o to_o

between_o a_o type_n and_o a_o sacrament_n i_o answer_v they_o differ_v in_o the_o number_n and_o multitude_n of_o they_o they_o have_v many_o type_n we_o have_v but_o two_o sacrament_n but_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o they_o further_o than_o this_o that_o our_o sacrament_n be_v sign_n of_o christ_n already_o come_v but_o their_o type_n be_v sign_n of_o christ_n that_o
