Really, Sir, some of you Reverends will exclaim, _how_ you are _garbling_ that twenty-first article! Why have you _slyly_ omitted to quote the _last_ part of that article?--Well, as you have called, for the _last_ part of this article, I will now quote it; and as your Church (_first_, indeed, unfortunately destroying herself) has just so charitably saved us, benighted papists, from the waters of idolatry, I do sincerely hope this _last_ part of your article, may enable you, to _re_build a godly and spiritual edifice. Well, then, now for the _last_ part of this twenty-first article, which you say, I have _slyly omitted_. It runs thus verbatim: "Wherefore, things ordained by them, as necessary to salvation, have neither strength nor authority, unless it may be declared, that they be taken out of Holy Scripture." Now, Most Reverend Gentlemen, as you have just asked _me_ a question, allow _me_ to ask _you another_. If any of you, were wishful to purchase an estate, would you not _first_, have the title deeds of that estate, _carefully_ examined by some eminent and respectable lawyers, _to be sure_ that the title deeds, were perfectly good, and satisfactory, _before_ you advanced the money? Now we have just learnt, from the _last_ part of your twenty-first article, that the Scriptures, properly speaking, are the deeds of a _Christian_, by which he is to obtain a _good_ title to salvation. Of course, therefore, we may _naturally_ suppose, that your scriptural Church would hand down to her followers the Scriptures, in the _most perfect_ and _unmutilated_ state.
