to_o be_v compare_v this_o our_o excessive_a multitude_n of_o ceremony_n be_v so_o great_a and_o many_o of_o they_o so_o dark_a that_o they_o do_v more_o confound_v and_o darken_v then_o declare_v

decent_a order_n and_o godly_a disctpline_n and_o such_o as_o be_v apt_a to_o stir_v up_o the_o dull_a mind_n of_o man_n to_o the_o remcmbrauce_n of_o his_o duty_n to_o god_n by_o some_o notable_a &_o special_a signification_n whereby_o he_o nught_v be_v edify_v furthermore_o the_o most_o waightr_n cause_n of_o the_o abolishment_n of_o certain_a ceremony_n be_v that_o they_o be_v so_o far_o abuse_v partly_o by_o the_o superstitious_a blindness_n of_o the_o rude_a and_o unlearned_a and_o partly_o by_o the_o unsatiable_a avarice_n of_o such_o as_o seek_v more_o their_o own_o lucre_n than_o the_o

for_o that_o some_o of_o the_o old_a ceremony_n be_v retain_v still_o if_o they_o consider_v that_o without_o some_o ceremony_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o keep_v any_o order_n or_o quiet_a disipline_n in_o the_o church_n they_o shall_v easy_o perceive_v just_a cause_n to_o reform_v their_o judgment_n and_o if_o they_o think_v much_o that_o nay_o of_o the_o old_a do_v remain_v and_o will_v rather_o have_v all_o devise_v anew_o then_o such_o man_n grant_v some_o ceremony_n convenient_a to_o be_v have_v sure_o where_o the_o old_a may_v be_v well_o use_v there_o they_o can_v reasonable_o reproove_v the_o old_a oncly_a for_o their_o age_n without_o betray_v of_o their_o own_o folly_n for_o in_o such_o a_o case_n they_o ought_v rather_o to_o have_v reverence_n unto_o they_o
