first_o you_o allege_v that_o to_o say_v that_o the_o priest_n be_v bind_v to_o offer_v up_o the_o daily_a sacrifice_n be_v the_o root_n of_o all_o the_o abuse_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n 28._o that_o have_v ben_fw-mi bring_v in_o to_o the_o church_n of_o christ._n etc._n etc._n do_v you_o think_v then_o reply_n that_o if_o priest_n be_v not_o bind_v unto_o it_o all_o abuse_n which_o have_v spring_v up_o as_o you_o say_v will_v straightway_o decay_n and_o wither_v the_o root_n of_o they_o be_v take_v away_o but_o who_o shall_v then_o stand_v at_o the_o altar_n and_o intend_v upon_o the_o mystery_n for_o duty_n sake_n and_o when_o the_o parisshener_n shall_v make_v courtesy_n and_o say_v one_o to_o the_o other_o go_v you_o and_z nay_o go_v you_o and_z by_o my_o troth_n i_o be_o not_o ready_a and_o by_o my_o troth_n then_o let_v all_o stand_n will_v you_o permit_v such_o disorder_n to_o continue_v when_o the_o root_n of_o abuse_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o by_o you_o or_o will_v you_o appoint_v some_o one_o or_o other_o which_o shall_v be_v bind_v to_o serve_v in_o the_o office_n who_o yet_o if_o you_o will_v apoynt_v to_o be_v a_o reader_n only_o and_o to_o have_v no_o further_o authority_n thento_fw-mi open_v the_o book_n and_o tell_v what_o be_v write_v in_o it_o then_o shall_v you_o disgrace_v very_o much_o the_o priesthode_n and_o order_n of_o the_o newlaw_n which_o by_o all_o common_a reason_n shall_v be_v more_o worthy_a than_o any_o ptiesthode_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n now_o if_o you_o be_v venturous_a to_o take_v the_o rule_n of_o christian_a soul_n in_o to_o your_o own_o hand_n be_v enforce_v to_o keep_v officies_n and_o dignity_n among_o you_o for_o the_o better_a commendation_n of_o your_o gospel_n think_v you_o that_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n and_o a_o god_n himself_o jesus_n christ_n will_v gather_v a_o multitude_n of_o nation_n together_o in_o to_o one_o faith_n one_o hope_n and_o one_o absolute_a form_n of_o serve_v and_o honour_v god_n and_o provide_v no_o officer_n concern_v that_o effect_n over_o they_o or_o when_o he_o have_v appoint_v most_o perfect_a and_o excellent_a office_n to_o be_v take_v and_o execute_v of_o man_n for_o the_o wealth_n of_o his_o well-beloved_a will_v he_o leave_v they_o to_o their_o pleasure_n whether_o they_o do_v follow_v their_o office_n or_o no_o and_o let_v they_o stand_v unbound_v and_o uncharged_a it_o seem_v then_o that_o as_o by_o his_o divine_a providence_n he_o as_o man_n begin_v a_o priesthode_n to_o serve_v for_o his_o church_n in_o matter_n appertein_v unto_o god_n so_o by_o as_o necessary_a consequence_n he_o charge_v his_o levetenante_n and_o underofficer_n in_o that_o kind_n to_o execute_v his_o will_n and_o do_v their_o duty_n wherefore_o that_o priest_n shall_v be_v bind_v to_o daily_a offering_n concern_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o priesthode_n and_o not_o every_o particular_a person_n it_o be_v so_o far_o of_o to_o be_v the_o root_n of_o abuse_n that_o except_o such_o a_o duty_n be_v follow_v we_o shall_v by_o this_o time_n have_v have_v no_o supper_n of_o our_o lord_n at_o all_o i_o warrant_v you_o iniquity_n will_v so_o much_o have_v prevail_v when_o the_o daily_a sacrifice_n shall_v have_v cease_v and_o no_o man_n his_o law_n can_v have_v continue_v it_o if_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n it_o have_v benfound_v unrequire_v and_o further_o i_o say_v that_o the_o church_n have_v bring_v in_o or_o allow_v no_o abuse_n in_o the_o ministration_n of_o any_o sacrament_n but_o you_o go_v forward_o and_o lie_v this_o be_v 29._o
