of_o that_o opinion_n that_o to_o despise_v the_o sacrament_n be_v a_o most_o heinouse_a trespass_n when_o you_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v a_o man_n in_o the_o world_n so_o lewd_a and_o

all_o these_o thing_n i_o will_v now_o omit_v and_o ask_v you_o one_o question_n how_o luther_n when_o he_o say_v there_o be_v a_o purgatory_n to_o prove_v it_o allege_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n if_o there_o be_v no_o testimony_n in_o the_o scripture_n that_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v a_o purgatory_n then_o again_o when_o he_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n by_o what_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n think_v he_o that_o purgatory_n may_v be_v utter_o disproove_v bring_v he_o any_o one_o place_n by_o the_o which_o he_o may_v convince_v that_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n dowbtlesse_o not_o one_o such_o therefore_o be_v his_o presumption_n that_o what_o so_o ever_o come_v into_o his_o head_n that_o will_v he_o constant_o affirm_v and_o again_o the_o self_n same_o thing_n if_o it_o mislike_v he_o will_v he_o utter_o deny_v and_o yet_o his_o disciple_n for_o sooth_n find_v no_o fault_n at_o all_o neither_o with_o his_o inconstancy_n neither_o yet_o with_o his_o lewd_a fasshion_n but_o what_o so_o ever_o the_o drowsy_a blowbol_n dravele_v out_o over_o his_o pot_n that_o take_v they_o up_o so_o griedy_o as_o though_o it_o have_v be_v good_a

necessary_a yet_o beside_o those_o place_n which_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v allege_v for_o the_o proof_n thereof_o i_o think_v it_o good_a to_o bring_v a_o few_o of_o the_o which_o that_o be_v one_o of_o

have_v a_o end_n and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o torment_n of_o fire_n also_o the_o which_o in_o like_a manner_n shall_v have_v and_o end_v in_o some_o man_n for_o otherwise_o our_o lord_n will_v never_o have_v a_o bring_v that_o place_n out_o of_o esaie_n their_o worm_n die_v not_o and_o their_o fire_n be_v not_o quench_v by_o the_o which_o place_n we_o be_v teach_v that_o there_o be_v one_o torment_n everlasting_a and_o a_o other_o that_o last_v but_o for_o a_o time_n for_o so_o much_o therefore_o as_o this_o worm_n and_o fire_n be_v a_o torment_n or_o vexation_n of_o mind_n and_o of_o

time_n of_o such_o spot_v of_o venial_a offence_n as_o they_o have_v gather_v in_o this_o life_n an_o other_o thing_n worthy_a to_o be_v note_v be_v this_o that_o no_o sin_n shall_v escape_v unpunished_a for_o even_o as_o in_o the_o old_a law_n it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o offer_v up_o any_o sacrifice_n without_o salt_n so_o be_v it_o not_o lawful_a for_o our_o soul_n to_o approach_v unto_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n majesty_n unless_o their_o uncleanes_n be_v before_o cleanse_v by_o salt_n and_o fire_n that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o the_o rigour_n of_o god_n judgement_n and_o by_o
