accustom_a fatherly_a care_n of_o the_o good_a and_o preservation_n of_o this_o kingdom_n will_v be_v please_v to_o resolve_v upon_o some_o such_o course_n as_o without_o force_n of_o arm_n or_o show_v of_o his_o princely_a power_n the_o estate_n of_o this_o kingdom_n may_v be_v settle_v as_o may_v be_v see_v at_o great_a length_n in_o the_o letter_n itself_o we_o be_v challenge_v here_o also_o as_o usurper_n of_o regal_a power_n first_o because_o we_o have_v take_v upon_o we_o to_o command_v the_o print_n and_o forebidden_a and_o dismiss_v the_o printer_n who_o his_o majesty_n establish_v this_o be_v the_o old_a complaint_n of_o the_o popish_a prelate_n against_o our_o reformer_n in_o the_o year_n 1559._o and_o very_o untrue_o by_o their_o successor_n renew_v against_o we_o for_o we_o have_v neither_o dismiss_v nor_o forbid_v the_o printer_n who_o still_o have_v his_o liberty_n and_o residence_n in_o edinburgh_n nor_o do_v the_o act_n of_o the_o general_a assembly_n which_o we_o take_v to_o be_v here_o mean_v contain_v any_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v construe_v to_o be_v the_o usurpation_n of_o regal_a power_n or_o the_o small_a diminution_n of_o the_o privilege_n royal_a about_o print_v it_o only_o forbid_v under_o the_o pain_n of_o kirk_n censure_n to_o print_v any_o piece_n that_o concern_v the_o kirk_n without_o warrant_n of_o the_o kirk_n a_o power_n belong_v to_o the_o kirk_n in_o all_o kingdom_n and_o ordinary_o use_v in_o this_o kirk_n not_o only_o in_o the_o time_n of_o popery_n but_o since_o the_o reformation_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o diverse_a act_n of_o assembly_n censure_v abuse_n of_o print_v appoint_v some_o treatise_n to_o be_v print_v and_o name_v some_o to_o revise_v what_o be_v to_o be_v put_v to_o the_o press_n neither_o must_v we_o think_v that_o the_o national_a kirk_n be_v short_a in_o her_o liberty_n of_o this_o sort_n than_o our_o university_n be_v who_o without_o restraint_n use_v their_o own_o

god_n have_v grant_v she_o for_o her_o own_o peace_n and_o the_o good_a of_o religion_n second_o because_o we_o have_v convene_v the_o subject_n raise_v army_n block_v up_o and_o besiege_v his_o majesty_n castle_n etc._n etc._n so_o many_o of_o these_o heavy_a challenge_n as_o have_v any_o show_n of_o truth_n be_v so_o full_o and_o plain_o answer_v in_o our_o last_o protestation_n decemb._n

the_o true_a honest_a and_o loyal_a expression_n of_o our_o heart_n be_v take_v to_o be_v false_a base_a and_o fawn_a passage_n we_o be_v particular_o challenge_v of_o two_o scandalous_a and_o most_o notorious_a untruth_n first_o that_o the_o army_n now_o raise_v be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o papist_n so_o indeed_o be_v we_o inform_v and_o therefore_o speak_v with_o this_o caution_n as_o we_o be_v

and_o of_o meddle_v with_o our_o religion_n this_o we_o offer_v to_o verify_v both_o by_o write_v and_o by_o the_o deposition_n of_o prime_a statesman_n and_o counsellor_n against_o some_o kirk-man_n there_o namely_o against_o canterbury_n himself_o that_o he_o do_v negotiate_v with_o rome_n about_o the_o frame_n of_o our_o service_n book_n and_o canon_n that_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n he_o alter_v and_o interlyne_v diverse_a passage_n thereof_o tend_v to_o conformity_n with_o rome_n a_o plot_n so_o perilous_a that_o have_v not_o the_o lord_n disappoint_v it_o first_o scotland_n and_o then_o england_n by_o he_o and_o such_o as_o cooperate_v with_o he_o have_v become_v in_o their_o religion_n romish_n his_o reprint_v conference_n with_o m_o r._n fisher_n will_v not_o serve_v to_o

that_o love_v the_o liberty_n of_o the_o kingdom_n to_o supplicate_v his_o majesty_n for_o call_v a_o parliament_n there_o that_o this_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n which_o have_v be_v in_o work_v this_o time_n past_a may_v be_v discover_v and_o the_o prime_a agent_n therein_o according_a to_o their_o demerit_n may_v be_v try_v and_o punish_v and_o that_o this_o craft_n and_o treachery_n in_o

and_o disappoint_v that_o god_n may_v have_v his_o own_o glory_n the_o king_n his_o honour_n and_o his_o subject_n may_v be_v in_o safety_n from_o foreign_a tyraine_n over_o their_o body_n and_o

which_o evidence_v that_o not_o only_o the_o law_n but_o the_o judge_n be_v for_o we_o and_o that_o from_o conscience_n of_o their_o duty_n to_o god_n the_o king_n and_o country_n and_o not_o from_o
