depart_v from_o that_o have_v here_o entire_o deliver_v it_o to_o the_o use_n of_o the_o church_n there_o be_v a_o cause_n also_o why_o it_o stay_v so_o long_o before_o it_o can_v endure_v to_o be_v press_v and_o you_o must_v know_v that_o too_o it_o be_v not_o my_o idleness_n nor_o my_o unwillingness_n to_o right_v both_o the_o b._n and_o his_o cause_n against_o the_o paper_n that_o be_v

1622._o and_o i_o finish_v this_o relation_n to_o they_o that_o term_n but_o the_o cause_n be_v partly_o i_o own_o backwardness_n to_o deal_v with_o these_o man_n for_o they_o pretend_v only_o for_o

man_n in_o diverse_a age_n and_o part_n of_o the_o church_n shall_v still_o pray_v and_o sometime_o call_v for_o a_o reformation_n if_o the_o church_n have_v not_o warp_a at_o all_o or_o if_o no_o 10._o reformation_n be_v necessary_a and_o partly_o because_o there_o be_v about_o that_o time_n three_o conference_n with_o mr._n fisher_n two_o at_o which_o the_o worthy_a author_n of_o this_o foregoing_a discourse_n be_v present_a this_o be_v the_o three_o and_o therefore_o can_v not_o well_o and_o convenient_o come_v into_o the_o world_n till_o the_o two_o former_a upon_o which_o it_o somewhat_o depend_v have_v show_v themselves_o and_o the_o cause_n why_o it_o can_v yet_o go_v alone_o but_o be_v lead_v into_o public_a by_o this_o former_a work_n be_v because_o before_o those_o nine_o article_n there_o go_v a_o preface_n which_o together_o with_o some_o of_o the_o article_n themselves_o be_v the_o main_n and_o substance_n of_o all_o that_o pass_v in_o the_o two_o former_a
