as_o they_o want_v that_o faith_n they_o overthrow_v all_o certainty_n of_o true_a faith_n than_o the_o reformer_n themselves_o be_v in_o a_o more_o pitiful_a case_n then_o the_o romanist_n in_o

sacrament_n be_v true_o apply_v unto_o they_o &_o yet_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o upon_o neither_o of_o these_o two_o knowledge_n any_o supernatural_a faith_n can_v be_v found_v but_o only_o either_o a_o kind_n of_o natural_a cognition_n or_o knowledge_n at_o the_o most_o take_v from_o the_o sense_n or_o a_o certain_a moral_a certitude_n proceed_v from_o the_o relation_n of_o their_o parent_n or_o other_o all_o which_o be_v far_o inferior_a to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o faith_n as_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v that_o which_o may_v by_o a_o special_a reason_n be_v yet_o more_o plain_o urge_v against_o the_o receiver_n of_o the_o sacrament_n in_o the_o reform_a church_n in_o regard_n they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o certainty_n of_o faith_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o sacrament_n in_o particular_a that_o they_o can_v possible_o have_v as_o much_o as_o a_o moral_a certainty_n of_o the_o same_o nay_o nor_o moral_a probability_n i_o mean_v such_o a_o one_o as_o may_v justly_o move_v a_o prudent_a man_n to_o give_v credit_n by_o reason_n they_o have_v no_o certainty_n nor_o yet_o probability_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o vocation_n &_o ordination_n of_o their_o minister_n without_o certainty_n of_o which_o two_o condition_n it_o be_v well_o know_v on_o both_o side_n that_o no_o certain_a knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o individual_a sacrament_n can_v possible_o he_o have_v and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o whereas_o sir_n humphrey_n think_v he_o have_v frame_v a_o sting_v argument_n against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o bellarmin_n he_o only_o heap_v coal_n upon_o his_o own_o head_n and_o from_o hence_o also_o we_o may_v gather_v a_o easy_a solution_n to_o that_o which_o he_o add_v against_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o priest_n intention_n in_o some_o of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o he_o specifi_v as_o baptism_n order_n &_o matrimony_n touch_v which_o matter_n i_o desire_v the_o judicious_a reader_n consider_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o much_o more_o conformable_a to_o reason_n to_o the_o dignity_n of_o the_o sacrament_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o christ_n who_o institute_v they_o &_o to_o the_o comfort_n &_o security_n of_o the_o receiver_n that_o a_o sincere_a intention_n of_o the_o priest_n god_n substitute_n be_v require_v to_o the_o truth_n &_o due_a administration_n of_o they_o as_o the_o roman_a church_n do_v teach_v &_o ordain_v or_o only_o so_o that_o if_o the_o receiver_n take_v they_o in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n as_o the_o reformer_n speak_v it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o minister_n to_o perform_v that_o external_a
