the_o world_n that_o our_o religion_n be_v not_o change_v at_o all_o our_o worship_n be_v the_o same_o whether_o within_o book_n or_o without_o our_o prayer_n be_v the_o same_o for_o matter_n with_o those_o in_o the_o common_a prayer_n book_n and_o if_o i_o shall_v one_o day_n use_v the_o common_a prayer_n book_n and_o another_o day_n forbear_v it_o i_o shall_v not_o change_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n to_o prey_n be_v part_n of_o his_o worship_n but_o whether_o it_o be_v on_o a_o book_n or_o off_o it_o be_v no_o part_n at_o all_o but_o only_o a_o mode_n or_o circumstance_n which_o may_v be_v alter_v as_o occasion_n serve_v i_o doubt_v not_o but_o a_o book_n be_v fit_a for_o some_o but_o not_o for_o all_o and_o do_v they_o think_v that_o we_o know_v not_o what_o add_v and_o chap_a and_o change_v they_o have_v make_v with_o their_o mass_n book_n who_o be_v it_o then_o that_o have_v change_v their_o worship_n be_v it_o like_o the_o same_o book_n that_o it_o be_v before_o the_o change_v make_v by_o gregory_n the_o great_a it_o be_v so_o ordinary_a a_o thing_n to_o change_v the_o manner_n and_o form_n of_o worshp_n that_o private_a bishop_n do_v it_o without_o any_o synod_n whence_o else_o have_v the_o world_n the_o form_n that_o be_v now_o in_o use_n tell_v we_o how_o many_o of_o those_o in_o the_o biblioth_n patrum_fw-la be_v make_v by_o apostle_n or_o general_a council_n if_o you_o can_v when_o basil_n the_o great_a have_v set_v up_o a_o new_a way_n of_o sing_v to_o god_n and_o make_v some_o other_o change_n in_o worship_n the_o clergy_n of_o neocesarea_n be_v offend_v with_o he_o for_o the_o novelty_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o none_o of_o that_o be_v use_v in_o gregory_n day_n to_o who_o he_o answer_v that_o neither_o be_v their_o own_o litany_n know_v in_o gregory_n day_n who_o yet_o have_v live_v not_o 140_o year_n before_o and_o be_v the_o famous_a founder_n of_o their_o church_n by_o miracle_n basil_n epist._n 63._o and_o basil_n add_v to_o the_o clergy_n of_o neocesara_n but_o how_o can_v you_o tell_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v not_o in_o use_n in_o gregory_n day_n when_o you_o have_v keep_v nothing_o unchanged_a which_o he_o be_v use_v to_o and_o that_o you_o may_v see_v his_o mind_n in_o this_o he_o add_v but_o i_o pardon_v all_o these_o thing_n though_o god_n will_v examine_v all_o only_a let_v the_o principal_a thing_n be_v keep_v safe_a if_o we_o have_v change_v the_o sacrament_n as_o the_o papist_n have_v do_v viz._n a_o commemorative_n sacrifice_n into_o a_o real_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n himself_o the_o sacramental_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n into_o the_o real_a body_n and_o blood_n the_o administration_n of_o it_o in_o both_o kind_n into_o one_o kind_n alone_o defraud_v the_o people_n of_o the_o cup_n the_o communion_n into_o a_o private_a mass_n the_o people_n only_o look_v on_o the_o priest_n when_o he_o receive_v alone_o himself_o etc._n etc._n i_o say_v have_v we_o make_v such_o change_n as_o these_o they_o may_v have_v call_v we_o changeling_n indeed_o and_o have_v tell_v we_o of_o novelty_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n 18._o moreover_o this_o lay_v so_o much_o upon_o low_a or_o unnecessary_a thing_n do_v impoverish_v the_o soul_n and_o make_v it_o low_a and_o empty_a and_o formal_a according_a to_o the_o matter_n that_o it_o have_v to_o work_v upon_o as_o the_o great_a unquestionable_a truth_n of_o god_n be_v they_o that_o sanctify_v and_o elevate_v the_o soul_n and_o leave_v their_o image_n on_o it_o so_o will_n contend_v about_o private_a opinion_n or_o lay_v out_o our_o zeal_n in_o ceremony_n and_o shadow_n depress_v the_o soul_n and_o famish_v it_o and_o turn_v our_o religion_n into_o a_o shadow_n we_o find_v by_o sad_a experience_n that_o people_n be_v so_o prone_a to_o turn_v all_o religion_n into_o mere_a word_n and_o show_v and_o customary_a formalitye_n that_o when_o we_o have_v do_v our_o best_a we_o can_v cure_v they_o of_o this_o mortal_a sin_n god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o will_v have_v such_o worshipper_n as_o worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n john_n 4.23_o we_o have_v little_a need_n to_o cherish_v this_o disease_n of_o hypocrisy_n &_o seem_v histrionical_a outside_n religiousness_n when_o we_o see_v so_o many_o perish_v by_o it_o after_o all_o that_o we_o can_v do_v for_o their_o deliverance_n 19_o and_o this_o make_v a_o religion_n of_o unnecessary_a thing_n or_o lay_v the_o church_n unity_n thereon_o be_v a_o dangerous_a snare_n to_o delude_v the_o ignorant_a and_o ungodly_a and_o make_v they_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v godly_a people_n and_o in_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n as_o well_o as_o other_o i_o use_v not_o this_o or_o any_o argument_n against_o the_o profitable_a use_n of_o any_o form_n in_o order_n to_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o matter_n nor_o against_o the_o due_a circumstantiate_v of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n but_o if_o profitable_a form_n and_o god_n own_o ordinance_n be_v somewhat_o liable_a to_o this_o abuse_n we_o can_v devise_v how_o to_o increase_v the_o danger_n and_o quite_o enthral_v these_o miserable_a soul_n more_o certain_o then_o by_o multiply_v unnecessary_a formalitye_n and_o place_v religion_n and_o unity_n in_o they_o for_o they_o that_o be_v most_o ignorant_a and_o empty_a of_o the_o love_n and_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o the_o bitter_a enemy_n to_o a_o heavenly_a life_n will_v present_o set_v in_o with_o these_o formality_n and_o make_v themselves_o a_o religion_n of_o these_o and_o then_o they_o will_v take_v themselves_o as_o godly_a as_o the_o best_a you_o shall_v never_o make_v they_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v ungodly_a they_o think_v the_o difference_n lie_v but_o in_o the_o way_n and_o manner_n of_o serve_v god_n you_o serve_v he_o one_o way_n and_o they_o another_o but_o yet_o they_o serve_v he_o as_o well_o as_o you_o yea_o they_o will_v overdo_v in_o these_o indifferent_a thing_n that_o they_o may_v make_v up_o that_o which_o be_v want_v in_o true_a godliness_n and_o then_o they_o will_v think_v that_o they_o be_v better_a and_o right_a than_o you_o thus_o do_v the_o heathen_n cry_v out_o against_o the_o ancient_a christian_n with_o a_o tollite_fw-la impios_fw-la away_o with_o the_o ungodly_a and_o kill_v they_o and_o cast_v they_o to_o wild_a beast_n to_o be_v tear_v by_o they_o because_o they_o will_v not_o worship_v their_o idol_n and_o so_o many_o ungodly_a wretch_n now_o that_o will_v not_o be_v persuade_v to_o a_o holy_a life_n will_v yet_o cry_v thou_fw-mi other_o as_o impious_a because_o they_o observe_v not_o all_o the_o ceremony_n which_o they_o observe_v when_o we_o have_v use_v all_o the_o mean_n we_o can_v to_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o study_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o to_o meditate_v in_o the_o law_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o holy_a conference_n and_o servant_n prayer_n to_o hatred_n of_o sin_n the_o contempt_n of_o the_o world_n the_o mortify_n of_o the_o flesh_n to_o the_o love_n of_o god_n above_o all_o to_o a_o thankful_a admiration_n of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o great_a mystery_n of_o redemption_n to_o the_o believe_v delightful_a forethought_n of_o everlasting_a life_n and_o preparation_n for_o it_o etc._n etc._n i_o say_v when_o we_o have_v do_v all_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o this_o which_o be_v godliness_n indeed_o we_o lose_v our_o labour_n and_o leave_v they_o as_o we_o find_v they_o they_o can_v away_o with_o so_o precise_a a_o life_n but_o yet_o a_o religion_n they_o will_v have_v instead_o of_o it_o to_o deceive_v their_o soul_n and_o quiet_v they_o in_o the_o way_n to_o hell_n for_o instance_n i_o must_v speak_v it_o with_o grief_n of_o heart_n that_o i_o meet_v with_o no_o small_a number_n among_o

abundance_n say_v that_o he_o be_v god_n only_o and_o not_o man_n now_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n though_o he_o be_v both_o on_o earth_n and_o very_o many_o know_v not_o what_o christianity_n be_v nor_o
