unto_o us._n that_o be_v your_o popish_a heresy_n nay_o we_o acknowledge_v with_o thanks_n to_o god_n and_o their_o just_a commendation_n that_o the_o ancient_a writer_n have_v bring_v great_a light_n to_o the_o true_a understanding_n of_o scripture_n yea_o that_o many_o papist_n have_v interpret_v some_o text_n of_o scripture_n sound_o &_o religious_o moreover_o we_o confess_v that_o all_o and_o

i_o will_v add_v hereunto_o the_o general_a consent_n of_o the_o ancient_a writer_n but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o long_o and_o more_o uncertain_a course_n to_o try_v whether_o they_o be_v suitable_a

use_v the_o help_n of_o ancient_a writer_n to_o find_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o not_o rest_v upon_o their_o authority_n therein_o if_o they_o prove_v their_o interpretation_n
