2._o whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o hear_v a_o protestant_n preach_v in_o the_o same_o place_n some_o morality_n although_o it_o shall_v by_o chance_n happen_v that_o some_o ignorant_a minister_n

without_o such_o remembrance_n i_o dare_v say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o impartial_a divine_a but_o will_v answer_v yes_o and_o for_o these_o opinion_n i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o if_o i_o have_v

possible_o happen_v in_o the_o protestant_a church_n as_o i_o have_v before_o say_v but_o the_o question_n only_o be_v what_o catholic_n may_v exterior_o do_v for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o life_n with_o a_o good_a intention_n and_o how_o and_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o may_v best_o converse_v and_o preserve_v themselves_o from_o ruin_n with_o most_o security_n therefore_o i_o pray_v

consider_v that_o it_o be_v a_o impossible_a thing_n for_o they_o to_o be_v heretic_n who_o never_o be_v catholic_n as_o for_o their_o custom_n of_o recusancie_n i_o say_v first_o that_o it_o be_v no_o custom_n for_o a_o custom_n be_v a_o continuance_n of_o a_o thing_n time_n out_o of_o mind_n without_o any_o interruption_n now_o recusancy_n have_v be_v interrupt_v oftentimes_o first_o by_o

to_o church_n i_o say_v second_o that_o a_o inconvenient_a custom_n with_o imprudencie_n be_v better_a break_v then_o keep_v and_o the_o prescription_n of_o threescore_o year_n not_o good_a yet_o if_o they_o will_v needs_o claim_v a_o right_n in_o and_o to_o their_o action_n by_o the_o same_o i_o do_v hereby_o promise_v not_o to_o take_v it_o from_o they_o by_o any_o suit_n in_o law_n for_o i_o do_v write_v more_o to_o avoid_v the_o scandal_n of_o the_o weak_a then_o that_o i_o do_v think_v thereby_o to_o satisfy_v the_o weak_a or_o rob_v they_o of_o their_o say_a custom_n as_o for_o their_o suffering_n and_o loss_n i_o be_o sorry_a for_o they_o and_o do_v assure_v myself_o that_o they_o will_v receive_v a_o great_a reward_n for_o the_o same_o because_o they_o suffer_v not_o so_o much_o for_o the_o love_n of_o recusancie_n as_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n for_o whosoever_o do_v the_o mean_a work_n no_o indiscretion_n therein_o be_v apprehend_v by_o the_o doer_n either_o for_o god_n
