A57693	Catholick charitie complaining and maintaining, that Rome is uncharitable to sundry eminent parts of the Catholick Church, and especially to Protestants, and is therefore Uncatholick : and so, a Romish book, called Charitie mistaken, though undertaken by a second, is it selfe a mistaking / by F. Rous.	Rous, Francis, 1579-1659.	1641 (1641)	Wing R2017; ESTC R14076	205,332	412

of_o the_o church_n but_o also_o in_o many_o place_n have_v judge_v they_o miserable_o to_o be_v slay_v which_o thing_n seem_v to_o have_v give_v the_o occasion_n of_o this_o wretched_a schism_n see_v here_o rome_n disease_v and_o her_o healer_n cast_v out_o that_o tell_v she_o of_o her_o disease_n yea_o cruel_o slay_v and_o now_o if_o the_o author_n be_v not_o ashamed_a let_v he_o ask_v why_o protestant_n fly_v from_o rome_n yea_o let_v he_o ask_v of_o saint_n john_n the_o divine_a why_o man_n shall_v go_v out_o of_o babylon_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v partaker_n of_o her_o sin_n nor_o of_o her_o plague_n and_o of_o christ_n himself_o if_o they_o persecute_v his_o member_n in_o one_o city_n why_o shall_v they_o fly_v into_o another_o and_o of_o the_o blind_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n why_o do_v you_o stay_v out_o of_o the_o synagogue_n when_o you_o be_v cast_v out_o sure_o when_o the_o author_n use_v these_o question_n what_o will_v his_o reader_n think_v but_o that_o he_o be_v very_o unreasonable_a to_o have_v protestant_n stay_v where_o they_o be_v cast_v out_o or_o where_o they_o must_v be_v spiritual_o or_o corporal_o slay_v for_o stay_v this_o

away_o the_o fast_o so_o this_o cavalier_n when_o the_o pope_n drive_v out_o protestant_n before_o he_o with_o excommunication_n pestilence_n fire_n and_o sword_n he_o cry_v after_o they_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v damn_v if_o they_o stay_v not_o whereas_o they_o doubt_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o kill_v if_o they_o stay_v indeed_o this_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n of_o they_o that_o they_o do_v not_o stay_v to_o be_v kill_v that_o by_o take_v their_o death_n patient_o the_o pope_n may_v go_v on_o with_o sell_v indulgence_n and_o his_o other_o merchandize_v quiet_o yet_o may_v you_o hear_v the_o cavalier_n even_o choleric_a in_o such_o unreasonable_a question_n with_o what_o colour_n can_v certain_o single_a base_a and_o filthy_a man_n have_v presume_v to_o depart_v from_o the_o visible_a catholic_n church_n of_o christ_n our_o lord_n and_o to_o erect_v their_o conventicle_n as_o they_o do_v if_o they_o have_v not_o at_o least_o profess_a that_o they_o can_v not_o find_v salvation_n there_o where_o first_o we_o acknowledge_v the_o title_n to_o be_v of_o the_o author_n mere_a bounty_n out_o of_o a_o romish_a treasury_n of_o charity_n mistake_v and_o because_o they_o bear_v the_o superscription_n of_o rome_n we_o send_v they_o back_o to_o rome_n as_o be_v they_o and_o not_o we_o but_o second_o we_o deny_v that_o they_o depart_v from_o the_o catholic_a church_n for_o in_o the_o second_o chapter_n we_o have_v show_v that_o protestant_n have_v still_o communion_n with_o the_o catholic_a church_n they_o flee_v not_o from_o health_n but_o from_o the_o plague_n not_o from_o salvation_n but_o damnation_n not_o from_o the_o whole_a but_o from_o the_o sick_a neither_o do_v they_o fly_v only_o but_o be_v cast_v out_o and_o banish_v and_o not_o only_o cast_v out_o but_o in_o danger_n of_o death_n if_o they_o stay_v except_o they_o will_v deny_v that_o the_o plague_n of_o rome_n be_v a_o disease_n the_o remnant_n that_o have_v

whip_n of_o egyptian_a and_o romish_a taskmaster_n and_o whereas_o the_o cavalier_n speak_v of_o conventicle_n to_o his_o grief_n he_o see_v that_o they_o be_v not_o shut_v up_o in_o private_a conventicle_n but_o have_v obtain_v large_a congregation_n and_o be_v excommunicate_v from_o the_o romish_a synagogue_n as_o the_o blind_a man_n from_o the_o jewish_a jesus_n have_v find_v lose_v

high_a and_o he_o have_v teach_v the_o hearer_n by_o write_v his_o law_n in_o their_o heart_n he_o have_v give_v they_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o praise_n and_o they_o have_v pray_v hearty_o against_o babylon_n her_o idolatry_n invasion_n treason_n and_o be_v hear_v they_o have_v give_v praise_n for_o the_o ruin_n of_o babylon_n and_o the_o deliverance_n of_o zion_n and_o have_v such_o

grace_n and_o blessing_n as_o for_o this_o nation_n who_o this_o author_n word_n by_o the_o language_n he_o write_v in_o shall_v chief_o concern_v we_o have_v a_o true_a church_n and_o a_o orderly_a

be_v save_v i_o think_v that_o the_o author_n may_v mislead_v his_o reader_n both_o in_o our_o straits_n and_o our_o largeness_n for_o we_o be_v at_o large_a where_o he_o count_v we_o in_o straits_n and_o we_o be_v straight_a than_o his_o word_n of_o our_o largeness_n will_v seem_v to_o import_v for_o few_o protestant_n that_o i_o know_v do_v say_v without_o limitation_n that_o romist_n general_o may_v be_v save_v yea_o our_o author_n himself_o will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v save_v though_o they_o hold_v fundamental_o for_o if_o they_o hold_v they_o by_o a_o humane_a faith_n because_o the_o pope_n their_o friend_n tell_v they_o so_o his_o own_o doctrine_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v save_v but_o indeed_o for_o those_o that_o believe_v fundamental_o by_o a_o
