To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If a man be religious not for religious respects, he is peremptory, and contrary to him of the opposite religion ; and yet they are equally naught. A common protestant hath no better ground for his religion than a papist hath for his. The same reason that a papist hath, the same such a pro- testant hath ; he was bred in it, and the king is of that religion, and he shall attain his ends by it. Hath a papist other reasons ? Except a man be truly changed and altered, he shall be ' yea, yea, ' and ...' nay, nay, ' some- time one, sometime another, peremptory in one and peremptory in another, and all naught. As, for instance, the sea, sometimes it ebbs, sometimes it flows, some- times it flows one way, and then flows back another way ; yet it is alway salt and brinish, the nature of it is not changed. So some men are peremptory, ' yea, yea, ' they run 'one way amain, and then they ebb again, yet they alway keep their nature brinish. They are peremptorj^ for good sometimes, and when it stands for their ends they are peremptory against it.
