he writeth of Mr. Calvin; and some other points concerning my purpose CHAPTER XI. ...... PAGE 102 How, my Lord returning from Westminster, I made my appearance, and what passed in the same. How I was finally referred to Mr. Doctor Barlow, Dean of Chester, and so dismissed again unto the end of the next term; and what conference I had with the said Doctor Barlow... 112 THE SECOND PART Of this Treatise, concerning my Search into Protestant Writers and Writings. CHAPTER I. What resolution I took after I was thus dismissed by my Lord of Canterbury; how I came to confer with a learned man of the Catholic side in prison; and of a new obligation that I took upon me to read and examine further, both Protestant and Catholic authors, for trial of two points that pressed me much CHAPTER II. 120 How by occasion of seeking out the foresaid books, I happened also upon others that gave me much light in divers matters, though with more trouble of mind than before; but especially about Martin Luther's conference with the Devil ... 127 CHAPTER III. How, after the perusal of these conferences of Mr. Luther and Mr. Zuinglius with the Devil, I passed further to examine some of their doctrines before mentioned; and what I found confirmed thereof by themselves; as, also, the great dissensions I discovered in Protestant writers of different professions 136 CHAPTER IV. What I found in the same Protestant authors concerning Mr. Calvin and Mr. Beza, and their manner of proceeding. And what I observed of myself in perusing Mr. Calvin's works concerning the point in hand of untrue dealing, false accusations, &c. CHAPTER V. What view I made of English Protestant authors, especially of Mr. Jewell, for trial of this point of true, or untrue, dealing in their writings. With a note prefixed of the chief books which I found written on both sides, from the beginning of Queen Elizabeth's reign; and what matter they administered unto me of consideration CHAPTER VI. PAGE 148 166 Of other places observed by mine own reading out of Mr. Jewell's works, of like unsincerity to the former, which greatly moved me to suspect his fidelity in writing......... 179 CHAPTER VII. What strange shifts, sleights, frauds, deceits, and other such cunning and artificial conveyances, the Catholic writers do object, besides the former particular untruths, out of Mr. Jewell's books; and what I found thereof to be true or false 201 CHAPTER VIII. How besides these escapes of Mr. Jewell, observed and objected by others, I had noted also divers myself, by reading his works, which I could not well answer or excuse: as neither some other alleged by Mr. Rastall, who objecteth thirteen several chapters of divers sorts of falsities 218 CHAPTER IX. The justification which Mr. Jewell endeavoureth to make of divers of the foresaid falsities, deceits, and corruptions objected against him; and how I examined the same for my better satisfaction, but could little or nothing be satis fied therein; and consequently I remained more doubtful and perplexed than before CHAPTER X. How after this I proceeded to examine the imputations of other untruths laid against sundry Protestant writers, to the number of some nine or ten; and what I found in the perusal thereof, especially in imputations laid against Mr. Willet .... CHAPTER XI. How next after this I lighted upon a book of Mr. Doctor Dove, wherein he persuadeth English Recusants to leave their recusancy, and to join with him and the English Church in points of Protestant religion; the reasons which he useth, and the small substance and bad manner of dealing that I found therein CHAPTER XII. PAGE 227 242 259 What I found in Mr. Thomas Rogers's book of the "Catholic Doctrine of the Church of England," contained in thirty-nine articles agreed upon by the English clergy ... 275 THE THIRD PART Of this Treatise, containing my Search into Catholic Writers and Writings, with my final Resolution. CHAPTER I. How, after this trial of Protestant books, I resorted unto the writings of the other side, to see whether the like sleights were used also by them, and what I found therein. And first, what Mr. Jewell objecteth for falsities against Dr. Harding, and how they are answered CHAPTER II. What imputation of lies and untruths hath been made by others against writers of the Roman religion; and princi 290 pally by Mr. Dr. Sutcliffe, in sundry books of his written these years past; and first against Cardinal Bellarmine. And of what force they are proved to be........ CHAPTER III. Other imputations of like lies, forgeries, and falsifications objected against Cardinal Baronius by the same author, Mr. Matthew Sutcliffe; and what truth or falsehood I found therein CHAPTER IV. The examination which I made of the falsifications, lies, and forgeries objected by the same Mr. Sutcliffe against Father Persons in particular; and how I was more diligent and attent in this point than in any of the former, and why. And what finally I found therein.... CHAPTER V. PAGE 307 329 340 Of other eight of Mr. Sutcliffe's charges against Father Persons, as they lie together in the end of his battery... 358 CHAPTER VI. The examination of other untruths objected against Father Persons, by Mr. Sutcliffe, in his book, entitled, "A Full and Round Answer to the Warn-word," containing, as Mr. Sutcliffe's words are, "A list of lies, falsities, fooleries, impieti es, and other enormous faults and abuses CHAPTER VII. Of other objections of lies, falsities, corruptions, and other such abuses, gathered by Mr. Sutcliffe against Father Persons in his answer to the book of the "Three Conversions," which he entitled "A Subversion of Robert Persons," &c. .... 380 408 CHAPTER VIII. The same subject is continued of objecting lies and falsifications by Mr. Sutcliffe against Father Persons's book of Three Conversions;" which objections are found to have more malice and wilful falsity than the former 432 CHAPTER IX. What cogitations I had upon the sight and ponderation of all these falsities found in Mr. Sutcliffe's objections against Father Persons and others; and among other points, I thought whether it were possible for him to answer to these; and how, for trial hereof, I resolved upon two different means here set down CHAPTER X. Of the journey which I was forced to make; and, first, how by that means I came acquainted with a certain old man, that gave me much light in many things, with certain notes of his for the profitable reading books of controversies; and of the conferences that I had with him about my doubts and difficulties PAGE 458 485 CHAPTER XI. Of the second conference that I had with the old man; and what passed therein, especially about that which I read in St. Augustine by his appointment; and what further counsel he gave me, and answered certain doubts by me proposed CHAPTER XII. 503 Of my third conference with the old man, and what counsel |
