believe_v unto_o salvation_n to_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n yet_o do_v i_o not_o deny_v but_o willing_o grant_v and_o reverent_o admit_v many_o thing_n receive_v by_o the_o perpetual_a consent_n of_o the_o church_n and_o not_o repugnant_a to_o the_o write_a word_n 118_o as_o true_a wholesome_a and_o godly_a for_o i_o be_o persuade_v with_o s._n austen_n that_o whatsoever_o be_v neither_o against_o faith_n nor_o against_o good_a manner_n may_v indifferent_o be_v observe_v for_o their_o society_n among_o who_o we_o do_v converse_v again_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o say_v that_o all_o necessary_a point_n of_o faith_n and_o doctrine_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n another_o thing_n to_o say_v that_o nothing_o not_o contain_v in_o the_o

for_o in_o thing_n indifferent_a the_o church_n may_v determine_v what_o be_v most_o expedient_a for_o the_o due_a circumstance_n of_o time_n place_n and_o person_n s._n r._n god_n say_v bell_n forbid_v we_o to_o add_v to_o his_o word_n 295_o i_o answer_v that_o such_o place_n make_v nothing_o against_o tradition_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o man_n salvation_n because_o such_o be_v

forbid_v add_v to_o god_n word_n any_o thing_n of_o our_o own_o head_n or_o which_o be_v man_n word_n as_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o forbiddance_n 6_o viz_n lest_o we_o be_v

it_o be_v not_o write_v thus_o write_v our_o jesuite_n confute_v himself_o so_o sufficient_o as_o more_o need_v not_o be_v require_v in_o these_o word_n he_o tell_v we_o two_o thing_n the_o one_o quite_o opposite_a to_o the_o other_o first_o he_o true_o say_v confute_v himself_o that_o the_o scripture_n forbid_v to_o add_v of_o our_o own_o head_n any_o thing_n which_o be_v but_o man_n word_n and_o subject_a to_o falsehood_n and_o lie_v this_o be_v good_a but_o second_o he_o add_v that_o to_o add_v god_n word_n though_o unwritten_a be_v a_o lawful_a thing_n but_o this_o be_v a_o silly_a beg_n of_o the_o question_n as_o the_o school_n term_v it_o for_o i_o deny_v that_o unwritten_a word_n to_o be_v god_n word_n which_o our_o jesuite_n shall_v prove_v but_o can_v and_o our_o jesuite_n have_v already_o confess_v that_o all_o necessary_a point_n of_o faith_n 285._o be_v contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n &_o write_a word_n and_o consequent_o it_o be_v to_o late_o to_o tell_v we_o now_o of_o add_v or_o admit_v the_o unwritten_a word_n i_o admit_v his_o former_a assertion_n as_o consonant_a to_o the_o scripture_n this_o latter_a i_o reject_v as_o childish_a vain_a and_o frivolous_a i_o prove_v it_o because_o every_o word_n of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v admit_v as_o a_o matter_n of_o faith_n and_o yet_o all_o matter_n of_o faith_n be_v write_v as_o be_v already_o prove_v and_o
