so_o charitable_a admonition_n we_o shall_v still_o believe_v all_o they_o say_v without_o examine_v any_o thing_n sonant_fw-la i_o take_v it_o for_o a_o favour_n say_v s._n ambrose_n when_o any_o one_o that_o read_v my_o write_n give_v i_o a_o account_n of_o what_o doubt_v he_o there_o meet_v withal_o first_o of_o all_o because_o i_o may_v be_v deceive_v in_o those_o very_a thing_n which_o i_o

how_o much_o less_o will_v they_o have_v we_o now_o receive_v without_o this_o demonstration_n those_o opinion_n which_o we_o meet_v with_o in_o their_o book_n which_o be_v not_o only_o mute_a but_o corrupt_v also_o and_o alter_v so_o much_o and_o so_o many_o several_a way_n as_o we_o have_v former_o show_v certain_o when_o i_o see_v these_o holy_a man_n on_o one_o side_n cry_v out_o unto_o we_o that_o they_o be_v man_n subject_a to_o error_n and_o that_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v and_o examine_v what_o they_o deliver_v and_o not_o take_v it_o all_o for_o oracle_n and_o then_o on_o the_o other_o side_n set_v before_o my_o eye_n these_o worthy_a maxim_n of_o the_o age_n follow_v to_o wit_n 〈◊〉_d that_o their_o doctrine_n be_v the_o law_n of_o the_o church_n universal_a and_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o follow_v it_o not_o only_o according_a to_o the_o sense_n but_o according_a to_o the_o bare_a word_n also_o and_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o hold_v all_o that_o they_o have_v write_v even_o to_o the_o least_o tittle_n this_o representation_n i_o say_v make_v i_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o history_n of_o paul_n and_o barnabas_n to_o who_o the_o lycaonian_o will_v needs_o render_v divine_a honour_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o resistance_n these_o holy_a man_n be_v able_a to_o make_v who_o can_v not_o forbear_v to_o rend_v their_o garment_n through_o the_o indignation_n they_o be_v fill_v with_o to_o see_v that_o service_n pay_v to_o themselves_o which_o be_v due_a to_o the_o divine_a majesty_n alone_o running_z in_o among_o they_o and_o cry_v out_o aloud_o sir_n why_o do_v you_o these_o thing_n we_o also_o be_v man_n of_o like_a passion_n with_o you_o for_o see_v that_o there_o be_v none_o but_o god_n who_o word_n be_v certain_o and_o necessary_o true_a and_o see_v that_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o word_n whereon_o we_o ground_n and_o build_v our_o faith_n aught_o to_o be_v such_o who_o see_v not_o that_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o to_o invest_v man_n with_o the_o glory_n which_o be_v due_a to_o god_n alone_o and_o to_o place_v he_o in_o a_o manner_n in_o his_o seat_n if_o we_o make_v his_o word_n the_o rule_n and_o

they_o can_v receive_v this_o honour_n but_o to_o the_o prejudice_n and_o diminution_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o their_o redeemer_n who_o they_o love_v a_o thousand_o time_n more_o than_o themselves_o or_o if_o from_o out_o their_o sepulcher_n where_o the_o relic_n of_o their_o mortality_n be_v now_o lay_v up_o they_o can_v but_o make_v we_o hear_v their_o sacred_a voice_n they_o will_v i_o be_o very_o confident_a most_o sharp_o reprove_v we_o for_o this_o abuse_n and_o will_v cry_v out_o in_o the_o word_n of_o s._n paul_n sir_n why_o do_v you_o these_o thing_n we_o also_o be_v man_n of_o

more_o full_o they_o search_v into_o humane_a record_n and_o by_o this_o inquiry_n make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o truth_n reveal_v unto_o they_o have_v in_o some_o degree_n
