A17143	An answere to ten friuolous and foolish reasons, set downe by the Rhemish Iesuits and papists in their preface before the new Testament by them lately translated into English, which haue mooued them to forsake the originall fountaine of the Greeke, wherein the Spirit of God did indite the Gospell, and the holie Apostles did write it, to follow the streame of the Latin translation, translated we know not when nor by whom With a discouerie of many great corruptions and faults in the said English translation set out at Rhemes.

our_o understanding_n reveal_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v secret_a &_o teach_v we_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v if_o we_o of_o ourselves_o will_v do_v our_o own_o endeavour_n for_o you_o shall_v not_o say_v he_o call_v any_o man_n master_n upon_o earth_n therefore_o when_o we_o take_v that_o spiritual_a book_n into_o our_o hand_n all_o worldly_a care_n lay_v aside_o let_v

we_o may_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v lead_v unto_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v and_o receive_v great_a profit_n thereby_o that_o barbarian_a a_o eunuch_n to_o
