confess_v that_o these_o be_v egregious_a companion_n in_o so_o delude_v their_o reader_n by_o shameful_a shiftinge_n and_o this_o of_o s._n chrysostome_n now_o let_v we_o see_v what_o he_o say_v to_o

here_o you_o see_v that_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o answer_v to_o three_o several_a party_n to_o wit_n s._n epiphanius_n s._n augustine_n and_o john_n caluyn_n and_o that_o with_o the_o same_o

their_o commemoration_n &_o geve_v thanks_o for_o their_o bless_a end_n which_o come_v moration_n he_o expound_v a_o little_a before_o to_o have_v be_v a_o recytall_n only_o of_o dead_a man_n name_n without_o any_o prayer_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n which_o if_o it_o be_v so_o and_o that_o sutcliffe_n will_v grant_v as_o he_o seem_v to_o do_v that_o aërius_n be_v just_o condemn_v and_o hold_v for_o a_o heretic_n for_o disallowinge_v this_o commemoration_n or_o recytall_n of_o dead_a man_n name_n why_o do_v the_o protestant_n also_o disallow_v the_o same_o or_o at_o leastwise_o do_v not_o

the_o church_n of_o that_o and_o all_o other_o ensue_a age_n second_o it_o be_v another_o sleight_n to_o say_v that_o aërius_n be_v condemn_v for_o disallow_v the_o order_n of_o the_o church_n in_o this_o commemoration_n of_o the_o dead_a as_o though_o aërius_n his_o fault_n have_v not_o be_v against_o any_o point_n of_o catholic_a and_o universal_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n but_o disobedience_n only_o against_o some_o ecclesiastical_a order_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o mark_v it_o he_o never_o name_v he_o heretic_n as_o indeed_o disobedience_n to_o order_n be_v not_o
