be_v so_o turn_v out_o of_o all_o your_o shift_n as_o even_o now_o when_o you_o will_v shift_v it_o of_o to_o martion_n and_o tacianus_n you_o give_v more_o evidence_n that_o it_o rest_v on_o your_o own_o head_n rather_o than_o on_o they_o and_o this_o i_o prove_v by_o compare_v together_o your_o say_n here_o with_o the_o apostle_n there_o you_o say_v here_o that_o martion_n and_o tatianus_n do_v fundamental_o fall_v from_o the_o faith_n because_o they_o simple_o forbid_v those_o good_a ordinance_n of_o god_n marriage_n and_o meat_n even_o against_o the_o light_n of_o conscience_n and_o

open_a and_o presumptuous_a blasphemy_n whereas_o the_o apostle_n note_v such_o expresselie_n as_o speak_v lie_n in_o hypocrisy_n 1_o tim._n 4.2.3_o and_o such_o in_o very_a deed_n i_o prove_v your_o

pass_v by_o my_o puestion_n and_o demand_n about_o the_o papist_n and_o their_o error_n as_o more_o vain_a than_o pertinent_a whereas_o in_o deed_n the_o truth_n be_v that_o the_o question_n and_o

in_o my_o former_a answer_n i_o do_v but_o brief_o towch_v that_o point_n of_o your_o speak_a lie_n through_o hypocrisy_n i_o will_v for_o further_a evidence_n of_o this_o scripture_n against_o you_o mention_v here_o some_o few_o particular_n mo_z 1._o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o you_o worship_n god_n by_o a_o service_n book_n take_v out_o of_o the_o pope_n portuis_fw-la and_o by_o many_o other_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n yet_o you_o pretend_v that_o you_o worship_v god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n according_a to_o his_o word_n a_o lie_n in_o hypocrisy_n 2._o your_o church_n minister_n and_o people_n stand_v subject_a to_o other_o archbishop_n and_o lordbishop_n than_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o their_o court_n canon_n excommunication_n etc._n etc._n yet_o you_o bear_v man_n in_o hand_n that_o you_o receive_v christ_n only_o as_o lord_n and_o king_n of_o the_o church_n and_o obey_v his_o law_n and_o ordinance_n another_o lie_n in_o hypocrisy_n 3._o your_o hierarchy_n and_o whole_a ministry_n from_o the_o high_a archbishop_n to_o the_o low_a priest_n be_v antichristian_a in_o you_o office_n entrance_n administration_n maintenance_n yet_o who_o know_v not_o that_o in_o all_o these_o you_o persuade_v the_o world_n you_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o jesus_n christ_n falsehood_n in_o hypocrisy_n 4._o you_o still_o banish_z and_o imprison_v we_o because_o we_o separate_v from_o your_o antichristian_a estate_n and_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v the_o faith_n and_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n yet_o you_o give_v out_o that_o we_o suffer_v more_o than_o we_o need_v that_o we_o be_v justly_o punish_v as_o enemy_n to_o the_o state_n as_o schismatic_n heretic_n seditious_a etc._n etc._n another_o lie_n in_o hypocrisy_n 5._o final_o even_o the_o truth_n which_o you_o teach_v and_o profess_v what_o be_v they_o else_o in_o your_o estate_n but_o the_o sheep_n clothing_n of_o your_o wolvish_a hierarchy_n and_o priesthood_n by_o mean_n whereof_o you_o deceive_v and_o devour_v the_o more_o lo_o here_o a_o taste_n of_o your_o speak_a lie_n in_o hypocrisy_n and_o if_o you_o will_v also_o of_o your_o conscience_n burn_v with_o a_o hot_a iron_n beside_o these_o in_o your_o church_n note_v also_o in_o yourself_o in_o particular_a how_o even_o here_o you_o do_v slander_v i_o and_o yet_o pretend_v that_o it_o be_v i_o which_o slander_v you_o neither_o suffice_v it_o you_o in_o this_o one_o place_n to_o do_v it_o once_o as_o i_o show_v before_o pag._n 149._o but_o here_o again_o you_o will_v needs_o double_v it_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o note_v this_o property_n in_o yourself_o which_o yet_o you_o shame_v not_o false_o to_o lay_v upon_o i_o and_o because_o you_o will_v not_o seem_v to_o want_v colour_n for_o it_o you_o pretend_v this_o that_o i_o say_v the_o word_n of_o your_o first_o reply_n import_v such_o only_a to_o depart_v from_o the_o faith_n as_o fall_v from_o it_o total_o to_o depart_v from_o the_o faith_n i_o say_v so_o as_o in_o that_o estate_n they_o can_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v esteem_v true_a christian_n 135._o reason_n 7._o pag._n 135._o for_o this_o be_v the_o point_n which_o i_o prove_v and_o you_o deny_v now_o towch_v this_o matter_n the_o case_n be_v so_o very_o plain_a as_o i_o neither_o need_v nor_o will_v do_v any_o more_o for_o your_o conviction_n therein_o but_o set_v down_o your_o own_o word_n as_o they_o

of_o your_o reply_n and_o of_o my_o answer_n neither_o of_o which_o you_o love_v to_o keep_v unto_o for_o your_o word_n then_o thus_o it_o be_v when_o against_o your_o church_n i_o have_v prove_v by_o the_o apostle_n testimony_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o all_o such_o depart_n from_o the_o faith_n as_o forbid_v marriage_n and_o meat_n therefore_o also_o your_o church_n so_o do_v which_o not_o only_o
