by_o faith_n alone_o do_v it_o to_o exclude_v good_a work_n from_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n and_o show_v themselves_o in_o that_o to_o be_v enemy_n of_o charity_n and_o of_o other_o virtue_n i_o do_v therefore_o extreme_o condemn_v they_o and_o can_v in_o no_o wise_n approve_v of_o their_o doctrine_n but_o when_o i_o come_v to_o sound_v their_o belief_n and_o see_v how_o they_o be_v not_o only_o careful_a to_o practice_v good_a work_n and_o virtue_n and_o that_o even_o much_o more_o than_o they_o of_o the_o romish_a church_n and_o that_o they_o judge_v they_o necessary_a to_o

fruitful_a in_o virtue_n i_o acknowledge_v they_o wrongful_o blame_v they_o in_o this_o as_o in_o many_o other_o thing_n also_o either_o malicious_o to_o make_v they_o odious_a to_o the_o people_n or_o ignorant_o for_o not_o know_v their_o doctrine_n as_o that_o they_o make_v god_n the_o author_n of_o sin_n and_o say_v that_o christ_n have_v suffer_v all_o the_o very_a pang_n of_o hell_n and_o the_o like_a impertinent_a calumny_n which_o they_o never_o dream_v of_o and_o which_o be_v very_o different_a from_o their_o belief_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o the_o faith_n whereof_o
