of_o our_o inherent_a justice_n and_o of_o all_o the_o good_a work_n we_o do_v which_o thing_n if_o the_o papist_n will_v once_o serious_o observe_v they_o will_v not_o differ_v from_o our_o opinion_n

most_o frivolous_a most_o ridiculous_a most_o irreligious_a for_o example_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n as_o they_o term_v it_o if_o certain_a question_n be_v propound_v unto_o they_o the_o best_a learned_a know_v not_o what_o to_o answer_v but_o so_o simple_o and_o so_o sottish_o as_o every_o child_n may_v espy_v the_o folly_n of_o their_o doctrine_n if_o any_o papist_n can_v

people_n that_o adore_v with_o divine_a worship_n the_o thing_n elevate_v over_o the_o priest_n head_n at_o mass_n from_o idolatry_n from_o heresy_n from_o false_a belief_n for_o if_o either_o the_o priest_n want_v intention_n to_o consecrate_v which_o often_o chance_v by_o reason_n of_o wander_a imagination_n or_o of_o purpose_n mean_v not_o to_o consecrate_v or_o of_o negligence_n omit_v any_o word_n of_o consecration_n then_o by_o popish_a religion_n the_o thing_n adore_v be_v but_o pure_a bread_n &_o so_o the_o adorer_n thereof_o become_v idolater_n worship_v a_o piece_n of_o bread_n for_o 17._o the_o everliving_a god_n and_o if_o the_o people_n either_o refuse_v to_o adore_v or_o doubt_v if_o they_o may_v adore_v they_o be_v deem_v heretic_n ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la for_o their_o pain_n because_o as_o the_o pope_n disholie_a canon_n tell_v we_o he_o that_o but_o doubt_v of_o romish_a definition_n concern_v faith_n and_o manner_n be_v a_o heretic_n 2_o secondlie_o i_o demand_v what_o it_o be_v that_o the_o priest_n receive_v and_o deliver_v to_o the_o communicant_n when_o he_o have_v 40._o bread_n before_o he_o suppose_v they_o to_o be_v but_o 38._o or_o 39_o and_o so_o intend_v to_o consecrate_v no_o more_o for_o beyond_o the_o priest_n intention_n consecration_n can_v extend_v as_o all_o wise_a papist_n grant_v neither_o be_v his_o intention_n more_o limit_v to_o one_o bread_n then_o to_o a_o other_o and_o therefore_o can_v no_o more_o consecrate_v one_o bread_n then_o another_o 3_o thirdlie_o i_o demand_v which_o part_n of_o the_o host_n as_o they_o term_v it_o be_v the_o popish_a make_v god_n when_o the_o sacrificer_n intend_v indefinitelie_o to_o consecrate_v the_o one_o half_a of_o the_o say_a host_n and_o how_o there_o in_o adore_v they_o can_v avoid_v idolatry_n 4_o four_o i_o demand_v how_o many_o god_n or_o how_o many_o time_n god_n be_v make_v in_o

both_o believe_v purgatory_n and_o receive_v the_o use_n of_o pardon_n general_o so_o long_o as_o there_o be_v no_o care_n of_o purgatory_n no_o man_n seek_v for_o pardon_n for_o of_o it_o depend_v all_o the_o estimation_n that_o we_o have_v of_o pardon_n if_o thou_o take_v away_o purgatory_n to_o what_o end_n shall_v we_o need_v pardon_n for_o if_o their_o be_v no_o purgatory_n we_o shall_v need_v no_o pardon_n consider_v therefore_o how_o long_a purgatory_n be_v unknown_a then_o that_o it_o be_v believe_v of_o some_o by_o little_a and_o little_a partly_o by_o revelation_n and_o partly_o
