desire_n your_o lordship_n to_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o recite_v brief_o all_o the_o innovation_n charge_v upon_o we_o be_v they_o of_o less_o or_o great_a moment_n and_o as_o briestly_a to_o answer_v

a_o change_n of_o religion_n and_o i_o will_v take_v these_o great_a pretend_a innovation_n in_o order_n as_o i_o meet_v with_o they_o first_o i_o begin_v with_o the_o news_n from_o ipswich_n where_o the_o first_o 〈◊〉_d innovation_n be_v that_o the_o last_o year_n fast_o be_v enjoin_v to_o be_v without_o sermon_n in_o london_n the_o suburb_n and_o other_o infect_a place_n contrary_a to_o the_o

religion_n and_o it_o be_v conclude_v for_o no_o sermon_n in_o those_o infect_a place_n upon_o this_o reason_n that_o infect_v person_n or_o family_n know_v in_o their_o own_o parish_n may_v not_o take_v occasion_n upon_o those_o by-day_n to_o run_v to_o other_o church_n where_o they_o be_v not_o know_v as_o many_o use_n to_o do_v to_o hear_v some_o humorons_a man_n preach_v for_o on_o the_o

of_o man_n yet_o no_o sermon_n be_v the_o only_a mean_n to_o humble_a men._n and_o some_o of_o their_o sermon_n be_v fit_a a_o great_a deal_n for_o other_o operation_n namely_o to_o stir_v up_o

second_o if_o there_o be_v any_o innovation_n in_o it_o the_o prelate_n name_v not_o the_o day_n my_o lord_n keeper_n i_o must_v appeal_v to_o your_o lordship_n the_o day_n be_v first_o name_v by_o

be_v leave_v out_o of_o the_o book_n for_o the_o fast_a therefore_o the_o prelate_n intend_v to_o bring_v in_o popery_n a_o excellent_a consequence_n be_v there_o any_o show_n of_o reason_n in_o it_o 4_o the_o four_o innovation_n 3._o be_v that_o there_o be_v one_o very_o useful_a collect_v leave_v out_o and_o a_o clause_n omit_v in_o another_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o as_o before_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o to_o alter_v what_o we_o think_v fit_a and_o second_o since_o that_o collect_v make_v mention_n of_o preach_v and_o the_o act_n of_o state_n forbid_v sermon_n on_o the_o fast-day_n in_o infect_a place_n we_o think_v it_o fit_a in_o pursuance_n of_o that_o order_n to_o leave_v out_o that_o collect._n and_o three_o for_o the_o branch_n in_o the_o other_o which_o be_v

if_o not_o necessary_a my_o first_o reason_n be_v in_o the_o litany_n in_o henry_n viii_o his_o time_n it_o and_o also_o under_o edward_n vi_o 1552._o there_o be_v this_o clause_n from_o the_o

this_o reason_n be_v draw_v from_o scandal_n which_o must_v ever_o be_v avoid_v as_o much_o as_o it_o may_v my_o second_o reason_n be_v that_o the_o learned_a make_v but_o three_o religion_n to_o have_v be_v of_o old_a in_o the_o world_n paganisns_n judaisme_n and_o christianity_n and_o now_o they_o have_v add_v a_o four_o which_o be_v turcism_n and_o be_v a_o absurd_a mixture_n of_o the_o

their_o religion_n and_o rebellion_n to_o be_v all_o one_o and_o that_o be_v against_o the_o ground_n both_o of_o state_n and_o the_o law_n for_o when_o divers_a romish_a priest_n and_o jesait_n
