once_o more_o make_v a_o step_n over_o the_o sea_n i_o shall_v evidence_n to_o you_o in_o a_o few_o instance_n 1._o for_o first_o you_o will_v have_v some_o indeed_o come_v among_o you_o who_o will_v call_v themselves_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n but_o you_o will_v quick_o find_v a_o vast_a difference_n betwixt_o they_o and_o those_o who_o now_o be_v his_o lawful_a ambassador_n for_o they_o will_v not_o trouble_v themselves_o to_o preach_v up_o the_o gospel_n so_o much_o as_o their_o own_o self_n their_o own_o gain_n advantage_n and_o filthy_a lucre_n and_o though_o it_o be_v the_o misfortune_n and_o a_o sad_a fate_n which_o attend_v the_o present_a minister_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n to_o be_v accuse_v as_o covetous_a person_n or_o hireling_n proud_a or_o imperious_a person_n man_n who_o lord_n it_o over_o their_o brethren_n and_o who_o encroach_v too_o far_o upon_o the_o due_n and_o right_n and_o estate_n of_o the_o laity_n yet_o shall_v the_o scene_n change_n and_o these_o man_n be_v cashier_v you_o will_v find_v that_o what_o you_o accuse_v they_o false_o of_o will_v be_v abundant_o verify_v in_o their_o popish_a successor_n and_o you_o will_v learn_v by_o too_o woeful_a experience_n what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v priestridden_a as_o you_o now_o call_v it_o when_o upon_o every_o petty_a distaste_n upon_o the_o least_o injurious_a usage_n or_o affront_n put_v upon_o they_o you_o shall_v hear_v they_o thunder_v forth_o as_o the_o heathen_n do_v of_o old_a to_o the_o primitive_a christian_n christiani_n ad_fw-la lecnes_fw-la away_o with_o the_o christian_n to_o the_o lion_n so_o they_o to_o you_o haeretici_fw-la ad_fw-la carbones_fw-la away_o with_o these_o heretic_n to_o fire_n and_o faggot_n then_o will_v you_o value_v those_o minister_n who_o you_o now_o despise_v and_o he_o who_o you_o be_v please_v now_o to_o esteem_v the_o most_o contemptible_a man_n among_o we_o will_v then_o be_v think_v worthy_a of_o your_o best_a word_n and_o eulogy_n when_o your_o back_n once_o feel_v but_o the_o smart_n of_o the_o romish_a rod_n and_o every_o parish-priest_n will_v be_v even_o a_o antipope_n to_o command_v you_o at_o his_o beck_n and_o awe_n you_o at_o his_o pleasure_n 2._o but_o second_o as_o the_o ministry_n will_v fail_v so_o will_v all_o true_a religion_n too_o for_o in_o stead_n of_o god_n ordinance_n humane_a invention_n shall_v be_v enforce_v upon_o your_o conscience_n and_o superstition_n and_o idolatry_n shall_v be_v impose_v upon_o you_o under_o the_o specious_a title_n of_o piety_n and_o religion_n you_o shall_v have_v prayer_n indeed_o allow_v you_o but_o they_o shall_v be_v a_o compound_v of_o ave-maries_n and_o of_o prayer_n to_o the_o saint_n and_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a and_o that_o too_o in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n and_o in_o a_o language_n which_o none_o of_o you_o can_v possible_o understand_v and_o by_o consequence_n can_v never_o say_v amen_n at_o your_o devotion_n you_o shall_v have_v the_o psalter_n of_o the_o bless_a virgin_n compile_v by_o the_o seraphical_a doctor_n s._n bonaventure_n present_v to_o you_o as_o more_o useful_a than_o the_o psalm_n of_o holy_a david_n and_o a_o mass-book_n clap_v into_o your_o hand_n but_o your_o bible_n clasp_v up_o and_o take_v away_o from_o you_o and_o you_o prohibit_v the_o read_n of_o the_o scripture_n upon_o the_o penalty_n perhaps_o of_o eternal_a damnation_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o the_o pure_a and_o sincere_a milk_n of_o the_o word_n tender_v you_o by_o some_o sober_a and_o rational_a divine_a you_o shall_v have_v probable_o one_o of_o johannes_n argentus_fw-la his_o prime_a catholic_n disciple_n come_v and_o extol_v in_o the_o pulpit_n the_o excellent_a quality_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_fw-mi milk_n or_o one_o of_o s._n

the_o sacrament_n and_o teach_v that_o the_o bread_n be_v the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n and_o under_o that_o notion_n will_v be_v enforce_v to_o receive_v and_o pay_v it_o homage_n i_o say_v notwithstanding_o after_o it_o be_v consecrate_v by_o the_o priest_n you_o see_v and_o feel_v and_o taste_v and_o smell_v that_o it_o be_v still_o bread_n notwithstanding_o you_o know_v it_o be_v a_o plain_a contradiction_n for_o one_o and_o the_o selfsame_a body_n to_o be_v in_o a_o hundred_o place_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n yet_o this_o you_o must_v believe_v and_o a_o thousand_o
