have_v make_v that_o which_o he_o say_v he_o must_v make_v all_o that_o can_v be_v say_v for_o my_o lord_n herein_o be_v this_o first_o that_o my_o lord_n charge_v the_o church_n of_o england_n with_o

to_o say_v there_o be_v such_o corruption_n in_o the_o liturgy_n when_o he_o do_v neither_o prove_v they_o to_o be_v such_o nor_o so_o much_o as_o name_v they_o what_o they_o be_v sure_o no._n and_o

such_o a_o great_a noise_n as_o if_o nothing_o concern_v popery_n may_v be_v print_v and_o because_o mr._n brown_n in_o sum_v up_o of_o the_o charge_n in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o warm_o insist_v upon_o this_o particular_a i_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o answer_v as_o follow_v that_o what_o move_v my_o chaplain_n to_o expunge_v that_o large_a passage_n against_o image_n i_o know_v not_o nor_o can_v i_o now_o know_v my_o chaplain_n be_v dead_a but_o that_o this_o i_o be_v sure_a of_o that_o elsewhere_o in_o those_o very_a sermon_n there_o be_v as_o plain_v a_o passage_n sermon_n and_o

and_o so_o he_o term_v they_o yea_o and_o that_o the_o 808._o pope_n be_v antichrist_n too_o and_o not_o only_o call_v so_o but_o prove_v by_o divers_a argument_n and_o not_o so_o only_o but_o in_o

the_o business_n of_o leave_v the_o care_n of_o these_o book_n and_o the_o overview_n of_o they_o to_o my_o chaplain_n it_o be_v then_o urge_v that_o the_o commissary_n w._n of_o john_n lord_n
