any_o of_o our_o adversary_n have_v assign_v a_o conjectural_a certainty_n to_o the_o persuasion_n which_o they_o have_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o rule_n of_o their_o faith._n and_o sure_o such_o

they_o will_v have_v to_o be_v manifest_a by_o this_o kind_n of_o certainty_n such_o as_o the_o knowledge_n of_o a_o lawful_a pope_n or_o a_o canonical_a council_n what_o the_o present_a church_n

must_v be_v know_v only_o by_o divine_a revelation_n but_o herein_o our_o adversary_n consent_v to_o we_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o and_o presume_v not_o to_o boast_v of_o evidence_n in_o

of_o our_o faith_n our_o adversary_n not_o only_o free_o confess_v but_o sharp_o contend_v maintain_v that_o lay_v aside_o tradition_n and_o the_o church_n we_o can_v be_v assure_v either_o that_o

scripture_n consider_v the_o latter_a way_n as_o it_o be_v fortify_v by_o the_o accedaneous_a help_n of_o church_n and_o tradition_n i_o may_v perhaps_o omit_v the_o handle_n of_o it_o here_o forasmuch_o as_o neither_o church_n nor_o tradition_n can_v confer_v a_o great_a degree_n of_o firmness_n upon_o scripture_n which_o that_o they_o have_v not_o themselves_o i_o shall_v in_o the_o
