have_v the_o true_a word_n of_o god_n and_o use_n of_o his_o sacrament_n according_a unto_o the_o same_o for_o the_o due_a mark_n thereof_o after_o this_o manner_n you_o shall_v have_v some_o time_n the_o simple_a idiote_n of_o the_o country_n to_o make_v answer_n unto_o strainger_n ask_v the_o right_a way_n unto_o this_o or_o that_o place_n reply_n which_o they_o will_v come_v unto_o for_o say_v they_o you_o must_v go_v by_o my_o grandsire_n close_o and_o then_o keep_v the_o straytwaye_n and_o you_o shall_v never_o miss_v or_o else_o like_v as_o a_o man_n will_v send_v his_o servant_n to_o

church_n have_v they_o in_o deed_n so_o yet_o every_o mysbegotten_a congregation_n will_v challenge_v they_o unto_o herself_o except_o you_o think_v that_o luther_n and_o zuinglius_fw-la with_o all_o

their_o side_n which_o yet_o be_v contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o i_o have_v think_v you_o will_v have_v tell_v of_o one_o such_o mark_n and_o sign_n to_o come_v by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a church_n that_o in_o all_o the_o controversy_n of_o opinion_n and_o all_o the_o evil_a condition_n of_o lyve_a we_o may_v have_v be_v direct_v unto_o one_o certain_a and_o approve_a

herself_o first_o the_o true_a word_n of_o god_n say_v you_o be_v one_o true_a mark_n of_o the_o church_n what_o mean_v you_o then_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o if_o you_o mean_v the_o volume_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n and_o that_o wheresoever_o we_o find_v the_o bible_n in_o any_o person_n hand_n that_o we_o must_v thereby_o straitwayes_o take_v this_o for_o a_o certain_a token_n that_o he_o which_o have_v the_o bible_n in_o his_o hand_n be_v one_o of_o the_o right_a church_n so_o shall_v you_o have_v not_o only_a yourself_o but_o arrian_n anabaptiste_n and_o all_o the_o rabble_n of_o myscreante_n to_o be_v of_o the_o true_a church_n by_o good_a lykelyhod_n on_o the_o otherside_n if_o you_o mean_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o two_o testament_n not_o as_o they_o be_v to_o be_v sell_v at_o bookebynder_n shop_n but_o as_o they_o be_v expound_v of_o sincere_a and_o true_a preacher_n what_o token_n they_o shall_v we_o have_v of_o you_o to_o know_v ready_o who_o be_v a_o true_a preacher_n and_o as_o i_o have_v say_v of_o this_o first_o mark_n which_o you_o geave_fw-mi so_o may_v i_o say_v again_o of_o your_o second_o which_o be_v the_o right_a use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o as_o i_o will_v grant_v unto_o you_o to_o be_v right_o practise_v only_o within_o the_o true_a church_n so_o yet_o you_o have_v to_o show_v we_o further_o how_o i_o may_v know_v such_o as_o do_v minister_v they_o accordinglye_o you_o will_v prove_v by_o s._n augustine_n s._n cyprian_n saint_n chrisostome_n and_o origine_fw-la that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o true_a trial_n of_o the_o church_n yea_o sir_n in_o one_o sense_n that_o be_v true_a in_o deed_n as_o also_o that_o the_o church_n make_v the_o trial_n and_o declaration_n of_o the_o true_a scripture_n but_o that_o ever_o any_o good_a and_o reasonable_a man_n have_v this_o meaning_n that_o who_o so_o ever_o will_v may_v take_v the_o scripture_n into_o his_o hand_n and_o sytt_n judge_v over_o the_o church_n i_o deny_v it_o utter_o and_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o can_v never_o prove_v it_o for_o as_o the_o scripture_n declare_v which_o be_v the_o true_a church_n so_o do_v the_o church_n
