and_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o book_n of_o nehemiah_n ch._n 13._o v._n 25._o that_o nehemiah_n do_v not_o only_o curse_v the_o jew_n with_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n that_o be_v wish_v they_o some_o

this_o world_n good_n make_v very_o light_a of_o pay_v a_o competent_a sum_n of_o money_n for_o his_o offence_n but_o if_o as_o god_n command_v they_o may_v be_v otherwise_o afflict_v viz._n on_o

who_o they_o have_v their_o ordination_n they_o can_v be_v the_o lawful_a preacher_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v the_o ordainer_n of_o the_o preacher_n of_o

first_o you_o can_v prove_v that_o if_o in_o case_n they_o have_v their_o ordination_n from_o the_o pope_n the_o pope_n at_o first_o be_v absolute_o a_o idolater_n but_o that_o he_o then_o hold_v

prayer_n sanctify_v with_o his_o own_o lip_n and_o true_o this_o almost_o affright_v i_o and_o i_o wonder_v what_o beast_n among_o those_o in_o the_o apocalypse_n mention_v this_o be_v that_o send_v forth_o such_o a_o smoke_a sulphurous_a favour_n at_o length_n i_o think_v i_o have_v espy_v two_o kind_n of_o creature_n and_o the_o one_o i_o thought_n be_v a_o subtle_a jesuit_n in_o a_o honest_a man_n habit_n who_o see_v a_o honest_a man_n willing_a and_o forward_a to_o run_v away_o from_o rome_n and_o that_o they_o have_v but_o a_o weak_a judgement_n and_o therefore_o may_v run_v too_o far_o he_o therefore_o flutter_v with_o the_o invent_a wing_n of_o either_o dedalus_n or_o the_o wing_n of_o his_o son_n i●arus_n beat_v the_o wind_n so_o close_o to_o their_o back_n as_o they_o run_v that_o they_o be_v too_o far_o go_v of_o a_o sudden_a and_o be_v almost_o in_o the_o red_a sea_n before_o they_o be_v aware_a of_o it_o and_o be_v like_a to_o have_v be_v drown_v in_o their_o own_o

have_v some_o goodness_n in_o he_o indeed_o but_o yet_o he_o have_v some_o malignity_n and_o peevishness_n in_o he_o against_o those_o that_o have_v abuse_v the_o form_n of_o prayer_n before_o for_o there_o be_v some_o malignity_n in_o some_o of_o those_o that_o be_v in_o the_o most_o right_a way_n and_o so_o he_o help_v forward_o this_o distemper_n i_o see_v thus_o where_o the_o distemper_n lie_v do_v resolve_v to_o walk_v in_o the_o middle_a way_n of_o truth_n that_o so_o i_o may_v guide_v the_o simple_a and_o settle_v he_o in_o the_o truth_n and_o send_v the_o croak_a frog_n to_o his_o home_n at_o rome_n and_o thus_o i_o begin_v to_o argue_v first_o that_o a_o form_n of_o prayer_n of_o itself_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o be_v good_a second_o that_o a_o man_n may_v

for_o than_o you_o will_v condemn_v our_o saviour_n for_o he_o use_v a_o form_n two_o or_o three_o time_n together_o a_o little_a before_o his_o death_n and_o the_o psalm_n of_o david_n be_v pen_v
