landlord_n and_o the_o carefulness_n of_o tenant_n be_v almost_o measure_v to_o a_o acre_n but_o if_o such_o a_o place_n be_v discover_v i_o must_v allow_v that_o the_o preacher_n there_o be_v the_o first_o planter_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o in_o all_o other_o place_n of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v but_o the_o continuer_v thereof_o i_o hope_v christ_n have_v reap_v much_o goodness_n long_o ago_o where_o these_o now_o new_a pretend_v to_o plant_v it_o and_o if_o england_n have_v not_o have_v a_o true_a church_n hitherto_o i_o fear_v it_o will_v not_o have_v a_o true_a church_n hereafter_o the_o second_o thing_n i_o commend_v unto_o you_o be_v this_o that_o a_o perfect_a reformation_n of_o any_o church_n in_o this_o world_n may_v be_v desire_v but_o not_o hope_v for_o let_v zenophons_n

basil_n hold_v they_o do_v before_o the_o fall_n of_o adam_n these_o fancy_n be_v please_v and_o plausible_a but_o the_o performance_n thereof_o unfeisable_a and_o so_o be_v the_o perfect_a reformation_n of_o a_o church_n in_o this_o world_n difficult_a to_o be_v describe_v and_o impossible_a to_o be_v practise_v for_o beside_o that_o satan_n will_v do_v his_o best_a or_o rather_o his_o worst_a to_o undo_v it_o man_n in_o this_o life_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o such_o perfection_n look_v not_o to_o find_v that_o in_o man_n out_o of_o paradise_n which_o be_v not_o find_v in_o man_n in_o paradise_n continuance_n in_o a_o holy_a estate_n martin_n luther_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v he_o never_o know_v good_a order_n in_o the_o church_n last_o above_o fifteen_o year_n in_o the_o

will_v not_o stand_v still_o but_o it_o must_v decline_v i_o speak_v not_o this_o to_o dishearten_v man_n from_o endeavour_v a_o perfect_a reformation_n but_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o be_v

the_o opinion_n be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v true_a sure_o i_o be_o that_o this_o light_n must_v not_o cross_v the_o scripture_n but_o clear_a the_o scripture_n so_o that_o if_o it_o affirm_v any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o god_n write_a word_n or_o enforce_v any_o thing_n as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n not_o express_v in_o god_n word_n i_o dare_v bold_o say_v that_o such_o a_o light_n be_v kindle_v from_o hell_n as_o for_o the_o opinion_n of_o christ_n corporal_a visible_a kingdom_n to_o come_v within_o few_o year_n i_o will_v neither_o peremptory_o reject_v it_o not_o dare_v absolute_o

with_o these_o few_o last_o year_n i_o be_o afraid_a rather_o on_o the_o contrary_a of_o a_o general_a defection_n see_v the_o word_n be_v so_o slight_v and_o the_o guest_n begin_v to_o play_v with_o
