the_o heretic_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v not_o be_v discover_v do_v allege_v the_o scripture_n well_o at_o the_o beginning_n to_o draw_v on_o the_o people_n unto_o they_o but_o so_o soon_o as_o

at_o all_o the_o good_a doctor_n donat._n of_o correction_n donat._n false_o accuse_v and_o slander_v they_o now_o the_o lord_n say_v s._n augustine_n suffer_v heretic_n to_o be_v that_o our_o faith_n

be_v deceive_v it_o be_v for_o that_o we_o will_v be_v beguile_v because_o we_o will_v not_o true_o seek_v out_o the_o scripture_n be_v it_o not_o easy_a enough_o to_o discern_v the_o spider_n from_o the_o bee_n the_o one_o turn_v all_o into_o poison_n the_o other_o into_o honey_n such_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o heretic_n and_o the_o true_a faithful_a read_v how_o the_o scripture_n

such_o prayer_n david_n make_v in_o the_o 119._o psalm_n then_o he_o will_v read_v it_o not_o to_o be_v turn_v away_o from_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n but_o rather_o so_o much_o the_o more_o to_o know_v and_o understand_v the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v preach_v thirdlie_o he_o will_v not_o read_v the_o scripture_n to_o half_n but_o will_v compare_v the_o old_a and_o the_o new_a testament_n
