notion_n of_o a_o servant_n or_o 2._o because_o it_o be_v in_o the_o patron_n be_v power_n to_o oblige_v the_o priest_n with_o church-preferment_n it_o will_v be_v therefore_o the_o design_n of_o these_o paper_n to_o show_v 1._o that_o a_o priest_n or_o chaplain_n in_o a_o family_n be_v no_o servant_n 2._o that_o whatever_o fair_a expectation_n the_o patron_n may_v have_v give_v the_o priest_n of_o future_a advantage_n those_o be_v no_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o justify_v a_o imperious_a deportment_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n or_o a_o servile_a submission_n on_o the_o other_o 1._o i_o shall_v prove_v that_o a_o priest_n or_o chaplain_n in_o a_o family_n be_v no_o servant_n the_o contrary_a of_o which_o i_o believe_v he_o be_v often_o think_v to_o be_v though_o it_o be_v not_o always_o speak_v out_o now_o in_o order_n to_o the_o remove_v this_o mistake_n i_o shall_v in_o the_o first_o place_n answer_v those_o objection_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v give_v the_o most_o probable_a occasion_n of_o its_o rise_n second_o i_o shall_v give_v a_o short_a description_n of_o the_o office_n of_o a_o chaplain_n and_o show_v how_o much_o it_o differ_v from_o that_o of_o a_o servant_n i._o i_o shall_v answer_v those_o objection_n which_o have_v give_v the_o most_o probable_a occasion_n to_o this_o mistake_n among_o which_o we_o may_v reckon_v the_o priest_n be_v entertain_v with_o diet._n but_o that_o eat_v at_o another_o table_n do_v not_o make_v a_o man_n a_o servant_n be_v plain_a for_o if_o it_o do_v than_o every_o one_o that_o visit_v his_o friend_n if_o he_o happen_v to_o eat_v or_o drink_v without_o pay_v for_o it_o must_v immediate_o forfeit_v his_o liberty_n if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o eat_v now_o and_o then_o upon_o a_o visit_n which_o bring_v a_o man_n into_o the_o condition_n of_o a_o servant_n but_o do_v it_o constant_o and_o with_o the_o same_o person_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o eat_v by_o the_o year_n make_v a_o man_n a_o servant_n for_o a_o year_n than_o eat_v by_o the_o day_n must_v make_v he_o a_o servant_n for_o that_o day_n the_o only_a difference_n in_o this_o case_n be_v that_o the_o one_o who_o eat_v but_o a_o meal_n or_o two_o come_v into_o his_o liberty_n soon_o than_o the_o other_o but_o possible_o it_o be_v the_o priest_n contract_v for_o diet_n which_o make_v he_o mistake_v for_o a_o servant_n to_o he_o that_o afford_v it_o and_o here_o it_o be_v suppose_v to_o come_v under_o the_o notion_n of_o wage_n because_o the_o priest_n be_v to_o do_v something_o for_o it_o now_o because_o a_o consideration_n of_o this_o nature_n whether_o it_o be_v receive_v in_o money_n or_o diet_n or_o both_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n i_o shall_v prove_v that_o a_o man_n receive_v money_n in_o consideration_n of_o bestow_v his_o time_n and_o pain_n upon_o another_o do_v not_o make_v he_o a_o servant_n to_o he_o that_o return_v he_o a_o recompense_n for_o his_o trouble_n for_o example_n lawyer_n and_o physician_n have_v their_o fee_n or_o their_o wage_n if_o you_o please_v and_o yet_o i_o suppose_v none_o will_v say_v that_o they_o be_v servant_n to_o all_o the_o client_n and_o patient_n that_o employ_v they_o and_o if_o not_o to_o all_o then_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n not_o to_o any_o the_o judge_n have_v a_o fee_n for_o every_o cause_n which_o be_v try_v at_o the_o nisi_fw-la prius_fw-la bar_n and_o a_o justice_n of_o peace_n have_v money_n allow_v he_o for_o make_v a_o warrant_n which_o both_o of_o they_o may_v receive_v without_o forfeit_v their_o authority_n the_o house_n of_o commons_o likewise_o have_v pension_n from_o their_o elector_n during_o the_o session_n of_o parliament_n i_o confess_v it_o be_v not_o usual_o pay_v now_o but_o if_o they_o do_v receive_v it_o as_o former_o they_o have_v do_v i_o hope_v no_o one_o will_v say_v a_o knight_n of_o a_o shire_n be_v servant_n to_o a_o man_n of_o forty_o shilling_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la because_o he_o contribute_v something_o towards_o his_o maintenance_n in_o all_o these_o case_n a_o man_n be_v engage_v in_o the_o business_n of_o other_o and_o receive_v a_o consideration_n for_o his_o employment_n and_o yet_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o be_v account_v a_o servant_n for_o his_o pain_n if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o in_o most_o of_o these_o instance_n the_o salary_n be_v assign_v by_o law_n and_o consequent_o that_o there_o be_v no_o contract_n between_o he_o that_o receive_v and_o he_o that_o give_v the_o consideration_n i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v a_o virtual_a though_o not_o a_o express_a contract_n because_o the_o people_n have_v agree_v to_o consent_v to_o whatever_o their_o representative_n shall_v determine_v 2_o lie_v as_o to_o the_o case_n of_o the_o lawyer_n though_o their_o fee_n be_v state_v by_o law_n yet_o every_o one_o choose_v who_o he_o will_v make_v use_n of_o so_o that_o the_o voluntary_a retain_v any_o one_o be_v no_o less_o than_o a_o plain_a contract_n and_o the_o give_v he_o so_o much_o money_n upon_o condition_n that_o he_o will_v plead_v for_o he_o 3_o lie_v it_o be_v not_o the_o contract_n for_o money_n in_o lieu_n of_o some_o other_o exchange_n which_o make_v a_o man_n a_o servant_n for_o then_o every_o one_o that_o sell_v for_o money_n will_v be_v a_o servant_n to_o the_o buyer_n and_o consequent_o a_o pedlar_n may_v make_v himself_o a_o master_n of_o the_o best_a merchant_n in_o london_n if_o he_o shall_v happen_v to_o be_v so_o ambitious_a as_o to_o be_v his_o customer_n and_o which_o be_v most_o to_o be_v lament_v if_o a_o man_n can_v not_o by_o way_n of_o contract_n receive_v money_n with_o one_o hand_n without_o part_v with_o his_o liberty_n with_o the_o other_o than_o the_o landlord_n must_v be_v a_o servant_n to_o the_o tenant_n for_o the_o bare_a contract_n for_o rent_n though_o he_o never_o receive_v a_o penny_n be_v enough_o to_o bring_v he_o under_o so_o that_o according_a to_o this_o opinion_n a_o man_n can_v let_v his_o farm_n without_o demise_v and_o grant_v away_o himself_o but_o further_a that_o the_o entertain_v the_o clergy_n with_o diet_n and_o salary_n be_v no_o argument_n of_o their_o subjection_n will_v appear_v if_o we_o consider_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o contribute_v towards_o the_o support_n of_o our_o parent_n if_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o it_o and_o
