I wonder, that Rastell is not ashamed to say that I would make them believe that they are not available / therefore good reader note my words / first I say we must do them because god hath commanded them / is it not available to keep the commandments of god: secondarily I say that they are to the perfect of my neighbour: is it not available? thirdly I say that they tame our flesh / is it not available: fourthly I say they are to the glory of god is it not available.
