A58365	The dovvnfall of Babilon: or The mistery of iniquity opened Wherein is declared the grounds and reasons of our departing from Rome, and that we had just cause to separate from her, and that in departing from her, we have not departed from the Church of Christ, but returned to it; also that to heare a false and unlawfull minister in the execution of his office, is unlawfull, and a breach of every one of the ten Commandements.

while_o they_o will_v put_v 〈◊〉_d to_o prove_v the_o negative_a and_o be_v put_v to_o it_o they_o will_v ask_v our_o meaning_n and_o wonder_v at_o our_o ignorance_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n they_o will_v study_v a_o shift_n and_o that_o which_o make_v most_o against_o they_o they_o will_v say_v it_o make_v most_o for_o they_o or_o tell_v we_o it_o be_v not_o worth_a the_o answer_n also_o

so_o it_o be_v common_a among_o they_o not_o much_o to_o care_v for_o the_o sheep_n but_o suffer_v the_o wolf_n to_o take_v they_o so_o when_o they_o have_v profess_v their_o be_v clear_o call_v by_o
