tacit_a acknowledgement_n that_o jesus_n be_v bear_v of_o she_o and_o that_o the_o son_n must_v be_v a_o very_a glorious_a prince_n when_o the_o mother_n be_v so_o high_o exalt_v upon_o account_n of_o her_o relation_n to_o he_o as_o to_o have_v so_o many_o devout_a prayer_n and_o hymn_n offer_v up_o to_o she_o but_o do_v this_o prove_v that_o the_o prayer_n which_o be_v immediate_o direct_v to_o the_o virgin_n mary_n be_v principal_o direct_v to_o christ_n because_o mary_n be_v his_o mot●●●_n which_o be_v the_o whole_a mystery_n of_o the_o business_n suppose_v christ_n shall_v think_v himself_o honour_v by_o those_o prayer_n which_o be_v offer_v to_o his_o mother_n yet_o be_v there_o no_o difference_n between_o pray_v to_o christ_n and_o that_o honour_n we_o do_v he_o in_o pray_v to_o his_o mother_n a_o late_a author_n indeed_o tell_v we_o 5._o that_o the_o veneration_n which_o we_o give_v to_o mary_n redound_v to_o jesus_n all_o honour_n give_v to_o the_o mother_n tend_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o son_n for_o as_o he_o communicate_v with_o she_o in_o flesh_n and_o blood_n so_o also_o do_v he_o partake_v with_o she_o in_o her_o quality_n and_o perfection_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v a_o sharer_n in_o that_o homage_n and_o observance_n that_o be_v make_v to_o she_o this_o be_v a_o new_a sort_n of_o consubstantiation_n and_o communication_n of_o property_n but_o yet_o how_o much_o soever_o we_o honour_v jesus_n when_o we_o pray_v to_o mary_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o pray_v to_o jesus_n when_o we_o pray_v to_o mary_n and_o therefore_o these_o prayer_n be_v principal_o and_o immediate_o direct_v to_o mary_n not_o to_o god_n or_o christ_n and_o therefore_o to_o offer_v ten_o prayer_n to_o mary_n for_o one_o to_o god_n look_v very_o like_o honour_v mary_n much_o more_o than_o her_o son_n or_o god_n the_o father_n well_o but_o she_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o god_n and_o bless_a among_o woman_n but_o how_o do_v her_o be_v christ_n mother_n entitle_v she_o to_o a_o great_a share_n in_o our_o prayer_n and_o devotion_n than_o christ_n himself_o it_o be_v indeed_o a_o great_a honour_n to_o she_o to_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o jesus_n but_o do_v this_o entitle_v she_o to_o that_o worship_n and_o homage_n which_o be_v due_a to_o her_o son_n she_o be_v the_o happy_a mother_n among_o woman_n but_o do_v this_o advance_v she_o above_o angel_n and_o arch-angel_n for_o my_o part_n i_o see_v no_o reason_n to_o think_v that_o her_o bearing_n christ_n in_o her_o womb_n which_o be_v a_o singular_a favour_n confer_v on_o she_o but_o have_v nothing_o of_o merit_n in_o it_o shall_v advance_v she_o above_o the_o most_o eminent_a apostle_n and_o martyr_n who_o with_o undaunted_a courage_n and_o unwearied_a industry_n propagate_v the_o gospel_n throughout_o the_o world_n and_o be_v the_o great_a minister_n of_o his_o kingdom_n i_o be_o sure_a our_o saviour_n do_v not_o seem_v to_o attribute_v any_o such_o mighty_a virtue_n to_o the_o maternity_n of_o mary_n when_o a_o certain_a woman_n say_v unto_o he_o bless_a be_v the_o womb_n that_o bear_v thou_o 27._o and_o the_o pap_n which_o thou_o have_v suck_v he_o answer_v yea_o rather_o bless_v be_v they_o etc._n who_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v it_o and_o in_o another_o place_n when_o some_o tell_v he_o behold_v thy_o mother_n and_o thy_o brethren_n stand_v without_o desire_v to_o speak_v with_o thou_o he_o answer_v and_o say_v unto_o he_o that_o tell_v he_o who_o be_v my_o mother_n and_o who_o be_v my_o brethren_n and_o he_o stretch_v forth_o his_o hand_n towards_o his_o disciple_n say_v behold_v my_o mother_n and_o my_o brethren_n for_o whosever_v shall_v do_v the_o will_n of_o my_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n the_o same_o be_v my_o

have_v the_o bare_a maternity_n of_o mary_n advance_v she_o above_o all_o other_o creature_n well_o but_o she_o be_v most_o acceptable_a to_o god_n in_o her_o intercession_n for_o we_o do_v the_o angel_n tell_v they_o this_o too_o as_o well_o as_o that_o she_o be_v bless_v among_o woman_n whence_o then_o do_v they_o learn_v it_o be_v it_o only_o because_o she_o be_v a_o mother_n have_v all_o mother_n than_o such_o a_o natural_a authority_n over_o their_o son_n even_o when_o they_o be_v sovereign_a prince_n can_v the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n choose_v a_o earthly_a mother_n but_o he_o must_v admit_v she_o into_o the_o throne_n with_o he_o and_o govern_v his_o kingdom_n if_o not_o by_o her_o command_n yet_o by_o her_o importunity_n and_o request_n this_o be_v think_v a_o great_a

some_o may_v think_v it_o a_o little_a too_o much_o to_o call_v it_o damnable_a because_o whatever_o papist_n believe_v now_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o this_o be_v use_v in_o the_o missal_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o will_v he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v damnable_a then_o to_o use_v that_o hymn_n i_o believe_v no_o papist_n ever_o think_v the_o virgin_n mary_n to_o be-omnipotent_a much_o less_o that_o she_o can_v do_v more_o than_o christ_n can_v or_o can_v command_v he_o by_o a_o direct_a and_o superior_a authority_n nor_o do_v any_o man_n that_o i_o know_v of_o ever_o charge_v

no_o other_o consideration_n shall_v incline_v he_o to_o do_v but_o the_o desire_n of_o such_o a_o powerful_a favourite_n this_o man_n be_v real_o more_o powerful_a than_o the_o prince_n because_o

church_n destroy_v justice_n towards_o man_n in_o all_o relation_n as_o the_o pope_n power_n of_o dispense_n with_o the_o duty_n of_o all_o relation_n their_o doctrine_n of_o probability_n of_o

that_o be_v not_o our_o dispute_n now_o but_o who_o misrepresentation_n it_o be_v it_o be_v plain_a this_o be_v not_o protestant_a but_o popish_a popery_n for_o not_o protestant_n but_o papist_n be_v

they_o without_o incur_v the_o censure_n of_o misrepresenter_n now_o though_o we_o grant_v that_o every_o doctrine_n which_o we_o find_v in_o popish_a author_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v account_v a_o article_n of_o the_o romish_a faith_n yet_o if_o such_o book_n be_v publish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o superior_n and_o when_o they_o be_v publish_v and_o know_v in_o the_o world_n escape_v the_o

consistent_a with_o the_o romish_a faith_n not_o a_o misrepresentation_n of_o it_o for_o will_v a_o church_n so_o strict_a and_o severe_a in_o its_o discipline_n and_o so_o jealous_a of_o heresy_n which_o censure_v all_o the_o ancient_a father_n and_o expunge_n out_o of_o their_o write_n every_o passage_n which_o in_o the_o least_o savour_v of_o heresy_n which_o will_v not_o entrust_v the_o people_n to_o use_v the_o bible_n for_o fear_n of_o their_o learning_n heresy_n from_o it_o i_o say_v will_v such_o a_o church_n suffer_v their_o own_o doctor_n to_o publish_v such_o opinion_n to_o the_o world_n as_o misrepresent_v she_o own_o faith_n and_o worship_n without_o condemn_v or_o pass_v the_o least_o censure_n on_o they_o and_o therefore_o though_o we_o can_v prove_v from_o these_o private_a doctor_n what_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v and_o what_o all_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v who_o be_v of_o that_o communion_n yet_o by_o their_o authority_n we_o may_v

no_o doctrine_n but_o what_o be_v allow_v to_o be_v teach_v in_o that_o church_n as_o all_o those_o doctrine_n be_v which_o be_v allow_v by_o public_a authority_n to_o be_v print_v and_o read_v in_o

definition_n of_o their_o council_n but_o we_o may_v say_v that_o they_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n because_o all_o papist_n be_v allow_v to_o believe_v they_o who_o will_v for_o i_o presume_v all_o man_n be_v allow_v to_o believe_v that_o which_o any_o man_n among_o they_o be_v allow_v to_o teach_v however_o i_o hope_v it_o may_v be_v some_o excuse_n to_o the_o

themselves_o say_v and_o resolve_v all_o into_o the_o credit_n and_o authority_n of_o his_o author_n and_o i_o can_v think_v it_o a_o great_a fault_n in_o a_o protestant_n to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o such_o pernicious_a doctrine_n and_o opinion_n as_o be_v own_v by_o some_o of_o their_o own_o writer_n than_o it_o be_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v publish_v
