The Eighth accused Point.
That the Church hath been hidden and Invisible.
Ans. We do not think that the Pope and his Clergy-Church have been hidden and invisible. Their Wars, even in Italy and Rome, for many Ages made them Visible: Yea, and palpable too: The Kings and Emperors that they Fought against or Deposed knew them; above 100000 Waldenses and Albigenses felt them to the Death: Quae Regio in terris talis non plena laboris. Whether this man knew not the Protestants Judgment herein , or whether he would not have his Reader know ⟨p. 51⟩it, I cannot tell; but I shall tell you what it is.
