seem_v to_o favour_v the_o dissenter_n i_o be_o quite_o tire_v with_o this_o impertinency_n yet_o i_o will_v fain_o see_v a_o end_n of_o these_o thing_n that_o we_o may_v come_v close_o to_o the_o

but_o as_o inferior_a truth_n from_o thence_o t._n g._n infer_v 1._o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o err_v against_o any_o article_n of_o faith_n 2._o dr._n st._n do_v not_o believe_v the_o thirty_o nine_o article_n to_o be_v article_n of_o faith_n 3_o then_o this_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n be_v vain_a and_o groundless_a because_o idolatry_n be_v a_o error_n against_o a_o fundamental_a point_n of_o faith_n p._n d._n here_o be_v not_o one_o word_n new_a in_o all_o this_o long_a charge_n but_o a_o tedious_a repetition_n of_o what_o t._n g._n have_v say_v before_o it_o consist_v of_o two_o point_n 1._o the_o charge_n upon_o dr._n st._n for_o undermine_v the_o church_n of_o england_n 2._o the_o unreasonableness_n of_o the_o charge_n of_o idolatry_n upon_o his_o own_o supposition_n because_o t._n g._n seem_v to_o think_v there_o be_v something_o in_o this_o business_n which_o touch_v dr._n st._n to_o the_o quick_a and_o therefore_o he_o decline_v give_v any_o answer_n to_o the_o

as_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v the_o article_n of_o pope_n pius_n the_o four_o his_o creed_n and_o do_v ever_o any_o divine_a of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n say_v otherwise_o it_o be_v

the_o ground_n of_o faith_n be_v the_o church_n authority_n in_o propose_v thing_n to_o be_v believe_v but_o do_v the_o church_n of_o england_n challenge_v any_o such_o infallibility_n to_o herself_o no._n she_o utter_o disow_v it_o in_o her_o very_a article_n therefore_o she_o must_v leave_v matter_n of_o faith_n as_o she_o find_v they_o i._n e._n she_o receive_v all_o the_o creed_n into_o her_o article_n and_o office_n but_o make_v no_o addition_n to_o they_o of_o her_o own_o and_o therefore_o dr._n st._n do_v with_o great_a reason_n say_v that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n make_v no_o
