neither_o jew_n nor_o greek_a be_v exclude_v and_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o difference_n that_o the_o jew_n in_o those_o day_n have_v only_o this_o privilege_n and_o that_o now_o no_o one_o

that_o no_o country_n be_v exclude_v and_o no_o place_n privilege_v so_o then_o no_o place_n be_v exclude_v there_o may_v be_v other_o church_n beside_o that_o of_o rome_n and_o no_o place_n be_v privilege_v even_o rome_n itself_o may_v be_v cut_v off_o from_o the_o church_n 3_o three_o the_o church_n be_v call_v catholic_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o donatist_n heretic_n who_o deny_v the_o

which_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o more_o ancient_a father_n never_o use_v this_o term_n catholic_a to_o distinguish_v the_o pure_a church_n from_o the_o heretical_a but_o call_v they_o orthodoxal_a but_o in_o process_n of_o time_n by_o reason_n that_o the_o orthodox_n church_n hold_v that_o the_o church_n be_v catholic_a or_o universal_a these_o two_o word_n catholic_a and_o orthodoxal_a be_v take_v in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o signification_n so_o that_o at_o last_o this_o title_n of_o catholic_a be_v not_o only_o give_v to_o the_o church_n to_o distinguish_v the_o orthodox_n from_o the_o donatist_n but_o also_o from_o all_o other_o heretic_n for_o a_o catholic_a in_o proper_a speech_n be_v not_o opposite_a to_o all_o sort_n of_o heretic_n but_o to_o the_o jew_n only_o and_o the_o donatist_n but_o for_o as_o much_o as_o custom_n be_v the_o matter_n of_o word_n as_o we_o see_v in_o this_o word_n tyrant_n ancient_o take_v in_o good_a part_n for_o a_o king_n and_o now_o only_o for_o a_o bad_a king_n this_o word_n catholic_a be_v take_v contrary_a to_o his_o nature_n in_o the_o signification_n of_o a_o pure_a church_n in_o such_o a_o sense_n as_o that_o a_o particular_a church_n may_v be_v call_v a_o catholic_a church_n and_o more_o or_o less_o catholic_a proportionable_o as_o it_o be_v more_o or_o less_o pure_a so_o that_o the_o question_n between_o the_o catholic_n and_o the_o huguenot_n lie_v not_o in_o this_o point_n viz._n which_o of_o the_o church_n be_v the_o church_n catholic_a but_o whether_o of_o they_o be_v most_o catholic_a and_o which_o most_o corrupt_a for_o in_o some_o degree_n both_o of_o they_o may_v be_v catholic_a so_o long_o as_o they_o hold_v the_o substance_n of_o faith_n as_o i_o show_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n and_o both_o of_o they_o in_o some_o sort_n may_v be_v corrupt_a it_o be_v a_o thing_n most_o certain_a that_o every_o visible_a church_n may_v have_v error_n more_o or_o less_o 38_o the_o church_n

fair_a for_o it_o be_v the_o privilege_n of_o the_o church_n triumphant_a only_o to_o be_v fair_a and_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v without_o spot_n or_o wrinkle_n 5._o true_a it_o be_v indeed_o that_o the_o church_n be_v sometime_o call_v fair_a but_o this_o be_v ever_o comparative_o 1._o wherefore_o the_o bridegroom_n in_o the_o canticle_n say_v of_o his_o spouse_n which_o be_v the_o church_n that_o she_o be_v the_o fair_a of_o woman_n that_o be_v not_o simple_o fair_a say_v s._n bernard_n but_o the_o fair_a among_o woman_n and_o for_o that_o self_n same_o reason_n be_v she_o in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o verse_n style_v both_o black_a and_o fair_a i_o be_o black_a say_v the_o spouse_n but_o i_o be_o comely_a i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a how_o that_o the_o ancient_n also_o do_v use_v this_o word_n catholic_a for_o a_o distinction_n

but_o a_o wrangle_n about_o the_o word_n as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o when_o i_o discourse_v of_o the_o number_n of_o the_o sacrament_n as_o for_o the_o part_n namely_o contrition_n confession_n and_o satisfaction_n if_o that_o he_o blame_v the_o huguenot_n for_o not_o hold_v they_o proper_o part_v thereof_o i_o answer_v he_o that_o neither_o do_v all_o catholic_n hold_v they_o so_o for_o durandus_fw-la make_v but_o two_o part_n confession_n and_o absolution_n and_o scotus_n say_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o which_o be_v absolution_n but_o if_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o these_o three_o thing_n be_v requisite_a or_o not_o the_o huguenot_n will_v also_o say_v that_o they_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o a_o penitent_a to_o have_v contrition_n and_o sorrow_n of_o heart_n to_o confess_v and_o acknowledge_v our_o sin_n unto_o god_n nay_o and_o that_o it_o be_v profitable_a also_o to_o confess_v they_o to_o the_o pastor_n of_o the_o church_n but_o not_o so_o absolute_o necessary_a because_o according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o learned_a catholic_n this_o auricular_a confession_n be_v never_o institute_v by_o god_n a._n nor_o yet_o of_o

be_v consider_v either_o in_o this_o life_n or_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v in_o purgatory_n that_o in_o this_o life_n the_o huguenot_n approve_v of_o and_o teach_v it_o to_o be_v most_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n to_o give_v satisfaction_n to_o man_n who_o we_o have_v any_o way_n offend_v and_o in_o regard_n of_o our_o sin_n against_o god_n to_o walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n moreover_o they_o confess_v that_o god_n punish_v man_n in_o this_o life_n by_o temporal_a affliction_n yea_o even_o those_o who_o sin_n be_v pardon_v it_o be_v true_a indeed_o 26._o that_o they_o deny_v any_o satisfaction_n or_o punishment_n to_o be_v in_o purgatory_n after_o death_n for_o sin_n but_o herein_o their_o error_n can_v be_v great_a 26._o first_o because_o s._n austen_n put_v it_o
