one_o of_o another_o that_o be_v god_n own_o right_a and_o property_n and_o they_o be_v all_o usurper_n that_o do_v encroach_v upon_o it_o reformation_n begin_v first_o in_o saxony_n under_o luther_n

already_o this_o discourse_n be_v long_o than_o at_o first_o i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v and_o that_o be_v the_o liturgy_n which_o i_o shall_v do_v as_o brief_o as_o possible_o i_o can_v in_o order_n to_o it_o it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o take_v notice_n how_o much_o that_o space_n of_o time_n namely_o queen_n mary_n reign_n between_o king_n edward_n and_o queen_n elizabeth_n have_v alter_v that_o spirit_n which_o appear_v in_o the_o reformation_n under_o that_o pious_a young_a prince_n the_o josiah_n of_o his_o time_n that_o bloody_a persecution_n have_v destroy_v the_o life_n of_o several_a of_o those_o godly_a and_o learned_a instrument_n of_o reformation_n under_o the_o former_a reign_n who_o in_o that_o great_a and_o good_a work_n propose_v unto_o themselves_o no_o humane_a by-ends_a but_o only_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n according_a to_o his_o word_n and_o though_o in_o the_o beginning_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n day_n there_o be_v several_a worthy_a instrument_n yet_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v act_v by_o be_v somewhat_o alter_v if_o not_o in_o the_o whole_a yet_o in_o part_n as_o it_o will_v appear_v if_o we_o compare_v the_o article_n as_o they_o be_v set_v forth_o in_o king_n edward_n day_n in_o the_o year_n 1552_o with_o the_o edition_n which_o the_o convocation_n under_o queen_n elizabeth_n in_o 1571_o have_v leave_v we_o there_o be_v some_o considerable_a alteration_n in_o the_o article_n as_o also_o in_o the_o common-prayer-book_n what_o they_o be_v for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o shall_v not_o set_v down_o yet_o i_o shall_v say_v they_o be_v about_o the_o article_n of_o grace_n of_o justification_n of_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o of_o tradition_n the_o expression_n leave_v out_o of_o they_o have_v prove_v some_o detriment_n to_o the_o truth_n for_o they_o be_v strong_a against_o some_o error_n that_o appear_v since_o and_o to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n therein_o contain_v but_o this_o in_o general_n may_v be_v observe_v about_o the_o prayer-book_n how_o the_o common-prayer_n be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o breviary_n the_o administration_n of_o sacrament_n burial_n marriage_n visitation_n of_o the_o sick_a out_o of_o the_o ritual_a the_o consecration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n collect_v gospel_n and_o epistle_n out_o of_o the_o missal_n and_o for_o the_o book_n of_o ordination_n of_o archbishop_n

in_o canterbury_n and_o london_n service_n solemn_o sing_v and_o say_v with_o all_o its_o pomp_n which_o order_n the_o popish_a intelligencer_n see_v and_o admire_v they_o wonder_v their_o master_n will_v be_v so_o unadvised_a as_o to_o interdict_v a_o prince_n or_o state_n who_o service_n and_o ceremony_n do_v so_o well_o agree_v with_o his_o own_o so_o return_v to_o the_o pope_n they_o show_v

present_o call_v in_o the_o prayer-book_n be_v the_o bead_n of_o our_o high_a church-people_n for_o as_o papist_n think_v all_o be_v well_o with_o they_o if_o they_o do_v but_o tell_v their_o bead_n so_o many_o time_n a_o day_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o they_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o their_o great_a work_n when_o they_o go_v to_o their_o church_n where_o they_o mutter_v so_o many_o pater_fw-la noster_n or_o so_o many_o time_n the_o lord_n prayer_n and_o avemarias_n or_o the_o angel_n salutation_n to_o the_o virgin_n so_o we_o have_v among_o we_o those_o who_o think_v to_o have_v perform_v the_o whole_a christian_a duty_n if_o they_o do_v but_o go_v to_o the_o service_n as_o they_o call_v it_o and_o hear_v the_o prayer-book_n read_v out_o of_o the_o common-prayer-book_n in_o that_o part_n of_o the_o litany_n where_o it_o be_v say_v from_o sedition_n and_o privy_a conspiracy_n the_o follow_a word_n be_v leave_v out_o from_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n and_o from_o his_o detestable_a enormity_n i_o think_v after_o the_o bloody_a tragedy_n act_v under_o queen_n mary_n we_o have_v no_o more_o reason_n to_o leave_v out_o that_o important_a truth_n than_o they_o have_v before_o to_o have_v it_o in_o but_o to_o speak_v something_o more_o in_o general_a upon_o this_o subject_a though_o within_o as_o narrow_a a_o compass_n as_o i_o can_v because_o by_o other_o much_o have_v be_v say_v to_o the_o purpose_n we_o declare_v we_o be_v not_o against_o liturgy_n other_o reform_a church_n have_v they_o and_o we_o own_o they_o be_v help_v upon_o occasion_n wherefore_o we_o be_v wrong_v when_o traduce_v for_o enemy_n to_o liturgy_n we_o love_v they_o full_a comprehensive_a and_o to_o the_o purpose_n but_o not_o clog_v with_o superfluous_a repetition_n it_o be_v good_a to_o have_v a_o form_n for_o administration_n of_o baptism_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o blessing_n of_o marriage_n but_o they_o must_v not_o be_v too_o long_a nor_o too_o many_o
