goodness_n what_o true_a deal_n or_o what_o thing_n agree_v with_o the_o apostolic_a doctrine_n there_o be_v among_o these_o papist_n i_o true_o can_v not_o see_v on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o

we_o apostatas_fw-la be_v it_o a_o shame_n to_o forsake_v ungodliness_n and_o idolatry_n and_o other_o thing_n both_o vain_a and_o foolish_a that_o this_o religion_n of_o they_o be_v none_o other_o i_o intend_v so_o brief_a to_o show_v that_o it_o may_v appear_v as_o in_o a_o table_n whereby_o our_o man_n may_v paciently_o bear_v the_o injury_n and_o reproach_n of_o these_o fellow_n in_o see_v from_o what_o monster_n by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n they_o be_v deliver_v and_o our_o adversary_n not_o bear_v their_o head_n so_o lofty_a and_o boast_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o

the_o pope_n and_o his_o member_n and_o the_o accustom_a religion_n of_o a_o few_o hundred_o year_n for_o these_o and_o such_o other_o like_a be_v of_o no_o force_n in_o the_o confirm_v of_o truth_n
