with_o cruelty_n and_o therefore_o to_o see_v whether_o you_o have_v any_o manhood_n in_o you_o or_o no_o i_o make_v &_o send_v forth_o this_o four_o challenge_n to_o you_o bishop_n &_o prelate_n which_o be_v this_o that_o i_o will_v if_o you_o please_v dispute_v with_o you_o all_o face_n to_o face_n before_o the_o king_n and_o state_n for_o life_n and_o liberty_n upon_o these_o ensue_a proposition_n first_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o pope_n power_n be_v from_o the_o devil_n second_o that_o your_o call_v power_n authority_n &_o jurisdiction_n be_v from_o the_o pope_n three_o that_o

unpon_o these_o proposition_n will_v i_o dispute_v with_o you_o all_o and_o venture_v life_n for_o life_n before_o the_o king_n and_o state_n upon_o these_o term_n first_o that_o you_o shall_v lay_v aside_o club-argument_n which_o be_v take_v he_o jailor_n and_o lay_v he_o in_o iron_n and_o lock_v he_o up_o close_a prisoner_n and_o keep_v he_o in_o safe_a custody_n second_o that_o the_o book_n of_o god_n which_o be_v a_o infallible_a truth_n shall_v be_v the_o sole_a judge_n of_o the_o controversy_n three_o that_o i_o may_v have_v liberty_n without_o be_v gag_v to_o speak_v my_o mind_n

prove_v all_o the_o fore_n say_v position_n by_o demonstrable_a and_o undeniable_a argument_n that_o you_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a in_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n to_o gainsay_v or_o deny_v they_o i_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o lose_v my_o head_n and_o life_n therefore_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o i_o have_v now_o the_o four_o time_n say_v and_o challenge_v you_o to_o your_o face_n for_o i_o intend_v to_o send_v you_o this_o that_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o king_n and_o noble_n you_o will_v make_v it_o good_a and_o therefore_o if_o you_o be_v not_o coward_n fit_v yourselves_o to_o come_v into_o the_o open_a pitch_a field_n face_n to_o face_n also_o be_v it_o know_v unto_o you_o that_o i_o will_v at_o paul_n cross_n dispute_v with_o all_o your_o priest_n and_o deacon_n upon_o these_o proposition_n first_o that_o they_o be_v all_o of_o they_o servants_z &_o minister_n of_o antichrist_n second_o that_o in_o the_o place_n and_o stand_v they_o be_v now_o in_o at_o this_o
