and_o rule_n of_o government_n the_o bishop_n exercise_v his_o jurisdiction_n by_o his_o chanceller_n and_o commissary_n official_a etc._n etc._n we_o see_v in_o all_o law_n in_o the_o world_n

give_v themselves_o too_o much_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o world_n and_o become_v grandee_n in_o kingdom_n and_o great_a councillor_n to_o prince_n than_o do_v they_o deleague_n their_o proper_a jurisdiction_n as_o thing_n of_o too_o inferior_a a_o nature_n for_o their_o greatness_n and_o then_o after_o the_o similitude_n and_o imitation_n of_o king_n and_o count_n palatine_n they_o will_v have_v their_o chanceller_n and_o judge_n but_o that_o example_n of_o king_n and_o potentate_n give_v no_o good_a defence_n for_o the_o reason_n why_o king_n administer_v by_o their_o judge_n although_o themselves_o be_v supreme_a judge_n be_v two_o the_o one_o because_o the_o office_n of_o king_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o inheritance_n and_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o all_o law_n that_o office_n of_o inheritance_n be_v rather_o matter_n that_o ground_n in_o interest_n then_o in_o confidence_n for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o may_v fall_v upon_o woman_n upon_o infant_n upon_o lunatic_n and_o idiot_n person_n incapable_a to_o execute_v judicature_n in_o person_n and_o therefore_o such_o office_n by_o all_o law_n might_n ever_o be_v exercise_v and_o administer_v by_o delegation_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o of_o the_o amplitude_n of_o their_o jurisdiction_n which_o be_v a_o great_a as_o either_o their_o birthright_n from_o their_o ancestor_n or_o their_o sword-right_a from_o god_n make_v it_o and_o therefore_o if_o moses_n that_o be_v governer_n over_o no_o great_a people_n and_o those_o collect_v together_o in_o a_o camp_n and_o not_o scatter_v in_o province_n and_o city_n himself_o of_o a_o extraordinary_a spirit_n be_v nevertheless_o not_o able_a to_o suffice_v and_o hold_v out_o in_o person_n to_o judge_v the_o people_n but_o do_v by_o the_o advice_n of_o jethro_n approve_v from_o god_n substitute_n elder_n and_o judge_n how_o much_o more_o other_o king_n and_o princess_n there_o be_v a_o three_o reason_n likewise_o though_o not_o much_o to_o the_o present_a purpose_n and_o that_o be_v that_o king_n either_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n or_o of_o the_o greatness_n of_o their_o own_o patrimony_n be_v usual_o party_n in_o suit_n and_o then_o their_o judge_n stand_v indifferent_a between_o they_o and_o the_o subject_a but_o in_o the_o case_n of_o bishop_n none_o of_o these_o reason_n hold_v for_o first_o their_o office_n be_v elective_a and_o for_o life_n and_o not_o patrimonial_a or_o hereditary_a a_o office_n mere_o of_o confidence_n science_n and_o qualification_n and_o for_o the_o second_o reason_n it_o be_v true_a that_o their_o jurisdiction_n be_v ample_a and_o spacious_a and_o that_o their_o time_n be_v to_o be_v divide_v between_o the_o labour_n as_o well_o in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n as_o in_o government_n and_o jurisdiction_n but_o yet_o i_o do_v not_o see_v suppose_v the_o bishop_n court_n to_o be_v use_v incorrupt_o and_o without_o any_o indirect_a course_n hold_v to_o multiply_v cause_n for_o gain_v of_o fee_n but_o that_o the_o bishop_n may_v very_o well_o for_o cause_n of_o moment_n supply_n his_o judicial_a function_n in_o his_o own_o person_n for_o we_o see_v before_o our_o eye_n that_o one_o chanceller_n of_o england_n dispatch_v the_o suit_n in_o equity_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n which_o be_v not_o so_o much_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o excellency_n of_o that_o rare_a honourable_a person_n which_o now_o hold_v the_o place_n but_o it_o be_v ever_o so_o though_o more_o or_o less_o burdenous_a to_o the_o suitor_n as_o the_o chanceller_n be_v more_o or_o less_o able_a to_o give_v dispatch_n and_o if_o hold_v be_v take_v of_o that_o which_o be_v say_v before_o that_o the_o bishop_n labour_n in_o the_o word_n must_v take_v up_o a_o principal_a part_n of_o his_o time_n so_o i_o may_v say_v again_o that_o matter_n of_o state_n have_v ever_o take_v up_o most_o of_o the_o chanceller_n time_n have_v be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n person_n upon_o who_o the_o king_n of_o this_o realm_n have_v most_o rely_v for_o matter_n of_o council_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o bishop_n who_o circuit_n be_v less_o ample_a and_o the_o cause_n in_o nature_n not_o so_o multiply_v with_o the_o help_n of_o reference_n and_o certificate_n to_o and_o from_o fit_a person_n for_o the_o better_a ripen_n of_o cause_n in_o their_o mean_a proceed_n and_o such_o ordinary_a help_n incident_a to_o jurisdiction_n may_n very_o well_o suffice_v his_o office_n but_o yet_o there_o
be_v another_o help_n for_o the_o cause_n that_o come_v before_o he_o be_v these_o tithe_n legacy_n administration_n and_o other_o testamentary_a cause_n cause_n matrimonial_a accusation_n against_o minister_n tend_v to_o their_o suspension_n deprivation_n or_o degrade_n simony_n incontinency_n heresy_n blasphemy_n breach_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o other_o like_a cause_n of_o scandal_n the_o first_o two_o of_o these_o in_o my_o opinion_n differ_v from_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v tithe_n and_o testament_n for_o those_o be_v matter_n of_o profit_n and_o in_o their_o nature_n temporal_a though_o by_o a_o favour_n and_o connivance_n of_o the_o temporal_a jurisdiction_n they_o have_v be_v allow_v and_o permit_v to_o the_o court_n ecclesiastical_a the_o one_o to_o the_o end_n the_o clergy_n may_v sue_v for_o that_o that_o be_v their_o sustentation_n before_o their_o own_o judge_n and_o the_o other_o in_o a_o kind_n of_o piety_n and_o religion_n which_o be_v think_v incident_a to_o the_o performance_n of_o dead_a man_n wi_n and_o sure_o for_o these_o two_o the_o bishop_n in_o my_o opinion_n may_v with_o less_o danger_n discharge_v himself_o upon_o his_o ordinary_a judge_n and_o i_o think_v likewise_o it_o will_v fall_v out_o that_o those_o suit_n be_v in_o the_o great_a number_n but_o for_o the_o rest_n which_o require_v a_o spiritual_a science_n and_o discretion_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o natureâ—_n or_o of_o the_o scandal_n it_o be_v reason_n in_o my_o opinion_n there_o be_v no_o audience_n give_v but_o by_o the_o bishop_n himself_o he_o be_v also_o

there_o be_v now_o so_o much_o complaint_n and_o cause_n of_o the_o nature_n aforesaid_a be_v only_o draw_v to_o the_o audience_n of_o the_o bishop_n it_o will_v repress_v frivoulous_a and_o prowl_a
