MY purpose is not, to insist upon words, & circumstantial exceptions, as being of little moment, but only to discuss the material points that I meet with, in their order. Yet because the Rej. cometh on in the beginning, with such a heat, if the Repl. had marvellously offended, almost in every word; I will take his first accusations (though not •uche material) into due consideration.

1. The Repl. made only mention of the all-sufficiency, or perfect fullness of the Scriptures. Hereat the Rej. presently complaineth of abuse, misreporting, and ma••ng a false show: as if (saith he) we denied the perfect ••lnesse of the Scripture etc. Now 1. the Repl. said no ⟨p. 2⟩such thing, but the contrary rather, when he observe that the same was granted by the Def. as it was required by those he writ against. 2. If he had said that th• Def. and Rej. also do deny the perfect fullness of Scripture, in regard of Ceremonial worship, he had said more then trueth, for they teach, that some such worship is lawful and good, which is not taught […] Scripture, that many teaching Ceremonies, which Go• never instituted, may by man be instituted and brought into worship, images themselves not excepted, that additions to Gods word (so they be not contrary) m•• and ought to be made.) The sum of their doctrin in this point, is that which Mr. Hooker setteth down p. 125. Muck the Church of God shall alway: need, which […] Scripture teacheth not.
