these_o term_n be_v strange_a to_o the_o arb_n protestant_n nevertheless_o they_o be_v true_a because_o that_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v the_o inward_a man_n and_o the_o chief_a

that_o the_o soul_n can_v resist_v but_o very_o hardly_o even_o as_o a_o ship_n which_o of_o itself_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v conduct_v any_o way_n be_v oftentimes_o carry_v by_o the_o wind_n against_o

that_o the_o understanding_n draw_v not_o the_o will_v to_o accept_v and_o rest_v in_o it_o see_v that_o by_o this_o faith_n a_o man_n be_v not_o assure_v whether_o any_o 〈◊〉_d be_v give_v to_o

question_n of_o freewill_n the_o protestant_n affirm_v that_o this_o faith_n of_o assurance_n depend_v not_o at_o all_o upon_o free_a will_n this_o be_v not_o to_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o

that_o nature_n do_v not_o show_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n any_o reason_n whereby_o he_o may_v conclude_v that_o god_n love_v he_o &_o will_v fain_o be_v favourable_a &_o merciful_a unto_o

the_o simplicity_n of_o faith_n be_v more_o firm_a than_o the_o demonstration_n which_o reason_n do_v devise_v moreover_o man_n can_v reject_v this_o faith_n when_o it_o be_v offer_v he_o because_o that_o god_n have_v so_o order_v that_o a_o man_n judge_v and_o believe_v without_o any_o precedent_n debate_v and_o withal_o a_o man_n can_v have_v a_o will_n to_o reject_v it_o at_o such_o time_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o understanding_n because_o that_o the_o will_v natural_o &_o necessary_o but_o free_o for_o otherwise_o it_o shall_v be_v no_o will_n yield_v itself_o to_o that_o which_o the_o judgement_n esteem_v to_o be_v good_a
again_o declare_v it_o that_o through_o the_o consecration_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n all_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o bread_n be_v convert_v into_o the_o substance_n of_o christ_n our_o lord_n

will_v speak_v in_o order_n of_o they_o both_o touch_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o eucharist_n we_o believe_v and_o teach_v that_o the_o true_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n

or_o change_v it_o into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v by_o the_o manifest_a word_n of_o god_n that_o god_n exercise_v in_o the_o eucharist_n any_o such_o
