god_n make_v a_o man_n rich_a the_o curse_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o make_v he_o poor_a prov._n 10._o 22._o and_o here_o in_o our_o church_n no_o man_n can_v be_v receive_v into_o the_o ministry_n but_o he_o must_v first_o make_v a_o solemn_a subscription_n that_o he_o acknowledge_v the_o article_n and_o the_o common-prayer_n book_n to_o be_v agreeable_a to_o god_n word_n and_o that_o he_o will_v use_v that_o and_o no_o other_o form_n in_o public_a prayer_n and_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o no_o man_n that_o be_v thus_o solemn_o receive_v into_o the_o ministry_n can_v be_v lawful_o admit_v into_o any_o ecclesiastical_a place_n with_o or_o without_o cure_n of_o soul_n but_o he_o must_v also_o take_v a_o most_o strict_a and_o severe_a oath_n against_o simony_n and_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o we_o to_o know_v how_o many_o have_v break_v this_o oath_n and_o be_v guilty_a of_o perjury_n and_o have_v break_v their_o subscription_n to_o the_o common-prayer_n book_n which_o they_o pretend_v to_o magnify_v and_o admire_v so_o much_o by_o neglect_v to_o catechise_v and_o to_o read_v the_o daily_a prayer_n and_o homily_n and_o have_v break_v their_o

these_o thing_n it_o will_v make_v we_o all_o if_o we_o have_v but_o the_o least_o sense_n of_o their_o miserable_a state_n to_o quake_v and_o tremble_v to_o think_v of_o their_o number_n and_o yet_o all_o these_o man_n have_v all_o their_o blessing_n and_o all_o their_o estate_n thus_o unlawful_o get_v curse_a with_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n and_o they_o can_v not_o possible_o leave_v they_o to_o their_o child_n but_o they_o must_v also_o at_o the_o same_o time_n necessary_o leave_v the_o curse_n of_o god_n along_o with_o they_o and_o how_o then_o can_v such_o child_n while_o they_o keep_v and_o live_v upon_o these_o accurse_a thing_n without_o make_v any_o restitution_n of_o they_o to_o the_o right_a owner_n how_o can_v they_o i_o say_v possible_o thrive_v and_o prosper_v in_o the_o

1._o 3_o and_o if_o a_o minister_n that_o do_v not_o catechise_v and_o preach_v in_o his_o own_o parish-church_n do_v force_v his_o child_n according_a to_o the_o spirit_n to_o go_v from_o parish_n to_o parish_n and_o from_o church_n to_o church_n to_o beg_v a_o little_a spiritual_a food_n for_o their_o soul_n that_o be_v ready_a to_o starve_v for_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n then_o be_v it_o not_o

this_o now_o god_n have_v long_o since_o threaten_v it_o and_o he_o will_v certain_o bring_v it_o to_o pass_v for_o say_v the_o lord_n hos_n 4._o 6_o 7._o my_o people_n be_v destroy_v for_o lack_n
