leave_v out_o the_o second_o commandment_n which_o forbid_v the_o worship_v of_o idol_n and_o image_n make_v two_o of_o the_o ten_o they_o profess_v also_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o gospel_n at_o least_o in_o generality_n and_o in_o word_n to_o wit_n that_o christ_n jesus_n perfect_a god_n and_o perfect_a man_n have_v wrought_v our_o full_a redemption_n and_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o cross_n and_o precious_a death_n &_o prrfect_a obedience_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o eternal_a death_n the_o fierch_n and_o everlasting_a wrath_n of_o god_n the_o due_a desert_n of_o our_o transgression_n and_o purchase_v for_o we_o everlasting_a peace_n and_o bliss_n they_o maintain_v also_o and_o profess_v in_o word_n as_o we_o also_o do_v the_o three_o creed_n the_o nicene_n the_o athanasian_n and_o the_o apostolic_a creed_n wherein_o be_v comprise_v the_o sum_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o the_o doctrine_n we_o profess_v they_o acknowledge_v that_o most_o excellent_a form_n and_o pattern_n of_o

therefore_o now_o to_o proceed_v to_o the_o declaration_n of_o that_o which_o i_o have_v undertake_v touch_v the_o novelty_n of_o your_o faith_n thus_o good_a mother_n have_v our_o man_n write_v &_o at_o this_o day_n teach_v that_o it_o go_v not_o with_o religion_n as_o it_o do_v with_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o realm_n &_o judgement_n at_o common_a law_n where_o the_o late_a be_v think_v to_o be_v the_o better_a but_o in_o religion_n the_o first_o and_o elder_a be_v best_a therefore_o they_o ever_o remember_v that_o golden_a say_n of_o tertullian_n that_o be_v true_a which_o be_v first_o that_o be_v first_o which_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n and_o that_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n which_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n but_o our_o faith_n be_v that_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n you_o be_v not_o therefore_o we_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n and_o so_o first_o your_o not_o and_o therefore_o late_a now_o that_o we_o be_v that_o which_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n they_o prove_v it_o thus_o another_o ancient_a father_n say_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n preach_v and_o deliver_v to_o the_o world_n by_o preach_v irenaeus_n irenaeus_n they_o afterward_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n commit_v to_o writing_n that_o for_o ever_o it_o may_v be_v the_o foundation_n and_o ground_n of_o faith_n whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n preach_v be_v the_o old_a ancient_a catholic_a and_o apostolic_a say_v but_o that_o which_o they_o have_v write_v be_v that_o which_o they_o preach_v so_o say_v this_o father_n therefore_o that_o which_o be_v write_v be_v the_o true_a ancient_a catholic_a and_o apostolic_a faith_n &_o that_o be_v we_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v we_o hold_v nothing_o as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n but_o that_o which_o be_v true_o teach_v we_o out_o of_o these_o write_a scripture_n therefore_o our_o faith_n be_v that_o which_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n your_o faith_n be_v not_o that_o which_o be_v write_v for_o your_o man_n will_v not_o be_v try_v by_o the_o scripture_n only_o as_o know_v that_o many_o thing_n they_o hold_v have_v no_o warrant_n there_o but_o have_v devise_v unwritten_a tradition_n therefore_o you_o be_v not_o that_o which_o be_v deliveeed_o by_o the_o apostle_n and_o not_o the_o old_a faith_n but_o a_o late_a new_a faith_n devise_v by_o man_n m_o why_o that_o which_o be_v deliver_v by_o tradition_n tradition_n tradition_n be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n as_o well_o as_o that_o which_o they_o write_v s._n true_a mother_n if_o it_o can_v as_o sound_o appear_v unto_o we_o what_o they_o deliver_v as_o it_o do_v by_o their_o writing_n what_o they_o preach_v but_o

this_o father_n that_o i_o name_v unto_o you_o say_v they_o write_v that_o which_o they_o deliver_v and_o they_o write_v it_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o not_o trust_v tradition_n unwritten_a and_o they_o write_v it_o to_o be_v for_o ever_o the_o ground_n of_o our_o faith_n note_v that_o unwritten_a tradition_n may_v not_o be_v the_o ground_n because_o it_o be_v uncertain_a and_o full_a of_o imperfection_n as_o i_o can_v show_v you_o if_o we_o be_v to_o speak_v of_o that_o matter_n therefore_o see_v this_o which_o be_v write_v be_v certain_o and_o assure_o that_o which_o they_o deliver_v and_o we_o hold_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v agreeable_a to_o this_o which_o be_v write_v you_o see_v it_o be_v most_o plain_a that_o we_o hold_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o deliver_v and_o so_o our_o faith_n the_o old_a faith_n which_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n and_o first_o m._n sure_o if_o you_o hold_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v write_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o that_o which_o be_v write_v be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o so_o it_o follow_v that_o you_o hold_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n and_o therefore_o your_o faith_n old_a indeed_o and_o not_o to_o be_v reject_v and_o for_o tradition_n although_o we_o may_v be_v tell_v that_o this_o and_o that_o be_v deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o their_o successor_n and_o so_o by_o they_o to_o they_o again_o to_o this_o day_n yet_o i_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o be_v not_o so_o manifest_a and_o plain_a as_o which_o be_v write_v neither_o do_v it_o yield_v such_o contentment_n to_o my_o conscience_n but_o i_o can_v not_o tell_v what_o to_o say_v it_o be_v a_o sure_a and_o steadfast_a way_n to_o trust_v to_o that_o which_o be_v write_v rather_o than_o to_o that_o which_o be_v report_v and_o yet_o i_o be_o loath_a ●o_o offend_v you_o shall_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o pause_v &_o think_v more_o
