to_o do_v be_v to_o see_v how_o you_o prove_v rome_n guilty_a of_o schism_n and_o the_o method_n you_o take_v herein_o i_o find_v to_o be_v as_o improper_a as_o that_o by_o which_o you_o will_v

be_v proper_o schism_n you_o accuse_v she_o of_o false_a doctrine_n which_o accusation_n can_v you_o be_v able_a to_o make_v good_a it_o will_v prove_v she_o to_o be_v rather_o erroneous_a than_o schismatical_a but_o i_o shall_v now_o descend_v to_o the_o examination_n of_o those_o three_o particular_n by_o which_o you_o will_v prove_v yourself_o not_o guilty_a of_o schism_n the_o first_o be_v because_o you_o own_o and_o perform_v obedience_n unto_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o observe_v all_o the_o rule_n and_o ordinance_n they_o have_v leave_v you_o in_o the_o scripture_n but_o how_o you_o can_v pretend_v to_o pay_v full_a obedience_n to_o christ_n and_o disobey_v his_o spouse_n who_o he_o enjoin_v you_o to_o hear_v under_o penalty_n of_o be_v repute_v a_o ethnic_a or_o how_o you_o can_v fancy_v to_o be_v unite_v to_o he_o when_o you_o fall_v off_o from_o his_o mystical_a body_n the_o church_n of_o which_o he_o be_v the_o head_n i_o know_v not_o or_o how_o you_o can_v be_v say_v to_o follow_v all_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o apostle_n when_o they_o recommend_v tradition_n and_o you_o reject_v it_o when_o they_o tell_v you_o that_o the_o church_n be_v the_o pillar_n and_o firmament_n of_o truth_n and_o you_o make_v her_o apostatical_a i_o can_v instance_n in_o many_o particular_n how_o counter_a you_o run_v to_o the_o scripture_n you_o so_o much_o pretend_v to_o but_o i_o shall_v wave_v they_o and_o only_o tell_v you_o that_o it_o be_v a_o unwarrantable_a way_n to_o fall_v off_o from_o the_o church_n and_o then_o appeal_v to_o that_o scripture_n which_o command_v you_o to_o obey_v the_o church_n yet_o this_o be_v your_o practice_n when_o you_o dispute_v with_o catholic_n but_o when_o you_o have_v to_o do_v with_o sectary_n who_o plead_v scripture_n against_o you_o than_o you_o have_v recourse_n to_o father_n and_o tradition_n use_v the_o same_o argument_n against_o they_o as_o we_o do_v against_o you_o it_o be_v long_o ago_o
