the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n instruction_n to_o the_o clergy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n license_v and_o enter_v according_a to_o order_n i._o that_o the_o clergy_n often_o read_v over_o the_o form_n of_o their_o ordination_n and_o serious_o consider_v what_o solemn_a vow_n and_o profession_n they_o make_v therein_o to_o god_n and_o his_o church_n together_o with_o the_o several_a oath_n and_o subscription_n they_o have_v take_v and_o make_v upon_o divers_a occasion_n ii_o that_o in_o compliance_n with_o those_o and_o other_o obligation_n they_o be_v active_a and_o zealous_a in_o all_o the_o part_n and_o instance_n of_o their_o duty_n and_o especial_o strict_a and_o exact_a in_o all_o holy_a conversation_n that_o so_o they_o may_v become_v example_n to_o the_o flock_n iii_o to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v be_v constant_o resident_n upon_o their_o cure_n in_o their_o incumbent_a house_n and_o keep_v sober_a hospitality_n there_o according_a to_o their_o ability_n iv._o that_o they_o diligent_o catechise_v the_o child_n and_o youth_n of_o their_o parish_n as_o the_o rubric_n of_o the_o common-prayer-book_n and_o the_o 59th_o canon_n enjoin_v and_o so_o prepare_v they_o to_o be_v bring_v in_o due_a time_n to_o confirmation_n when_o there_o shall_v be_v opportunity_n and_o that_o they_o also_o at_o the_o same_o time_n expound_v the_o ground_n of_o religion_n and_o the_o common_a christianity_n in_o the_o method_n of_o the_o catechism_n for_o the_o instruction_n and_o benefit_n of_o the_o whole_a parish_n teach_v they_o what_o they_o be_v to_o believe_v and_o what_o to_o do_v and_o what_o to_o pray_v for_o and_o particular_o often_o and_o earnest_o inculcate_v upon_o the_o importance_n and_o obligation_n of_o their_o baptismal_a vow_n v._o that_o they_o perform_v the_o daily_a office_n public_o with_o all_o decency_n affection_n and_o gravity_n in_o all_o market_n and_o other_o great_a town_n and_o even_o in_o village_n and_o less_o populous_a place_n bring_v people_n to_o public_a prayer_n as_o frequent_o as_o may_v be_v especial_o on_o such_o day_n and_o at_o such_o time_n as_o the_o rubric_n and_o canon_n on_o holiday_n and_o their_o eve_n on_o ember_n and_o rogation_n day_n on_o wednesday_n and_o friday_n in_o each_o week_n and_o especial_o in_o advent_n and_o lent._n vi_o that_o they_o use_v their_o utmost_a endeavour_n both_o in_o their_o sermon_n and_o by_o private_a application_n to_o prevail_v with_o such_o of_o their_o flock_n as_o be_v of_o competent_a age_n to_o receive_v frequent_o the_o holy_a communion_n and_o to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o administer_v it_o in_o the_o great_a town_n once_o in_o every_o month_n and_o even_o in_o the_o lesser_a too_o if_o communicant_n may_v be_v procure_v or_o how_o ever_o as_o often_o as_o they_o may_v and_o that_o they_o take_v all_o due_a care_n both_o by_o preach_v and_o otherwise_o to_o prepare_v all_o for_o the_o worthy_a receive_n of_o it_o vii_o that_o in_o their_o sermon_n they_o teach_v and_o inform_v their_o people_n four_o time_n a_o year_n at_o the_o least_o as_o what_o the_o canon_n require_v that_o all_o usurp_v and_o foreign_a jurisdiction_n be_v for_o most_o just_a cause_n take_v away_o and_o abolish_v in_o this_o realm_n and_o no_o manner_n of_o obedience_n or_o subjection_n due_a to_o the_o same_o or_o to_o any_o that_o pretend_v to_o act_v by_o virtue_n of_o it_o but_o that_o the_o king_n power_n be_v in_o his_o dominion_n high_a under_o god_n they_o upon_o all_o occasion_n persuade_v the_o people_n to_o loyalty_n and_o obedience_n to_o his_o majesty_n in_o all_o thing_n lawful_a and_o to_o patient_a submission_n in_o the_o rest_n promote_a as_o far_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v the_o public_a peace_n and_o quiet_a of_o the_o world._n viii_o that_o they_o maintain_v fair_a correspondence_n full_a of_o the_o kind_a respect_n of_o all_o sort_n with_o the_o gentry_n and_o person_n of_o quality_n in_o their_o neighbourhood_n as_o be_v deep_o sensible_a what_o reasonable_a assistance_n and_o countenance_n this_o poor_a church_n have_v receive_v from_o they_o in_o her_o necessity_n ix_o that_o they_o often_o exhort_v all_o those_o of_o our_o communion_n to_o continue_v steadfast_a to_o the_o end_n in_o their_o most_o holy_a faith_n and_o constant_a to_o their_o profession_n and_o to_o that_o end_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o all_o seducer_n and_o especial_o of_o popish_a emissary_n who_o be_v now_o in_o great_a number_n go_v forth_o among_o they_o and_o more_o busy_a and_o active_a than_o ever_o and_o that_o they_o take_v all_o occasion_n to_o convince_v our_o own_o flock_n that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o they_o to_o be_v member_n of_o a_o excellent_a church_n right_o and_o due_o reform_v both_o in_o faith_n and_o worship_n unless_o they_o do_v also_o reform_v and_o amend_v their_o own_o life_n and_o so_o order_v their_o conversation_n in_o all_o thing_n as_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ._n x._o and_o for_o asmuch_o as_o those_o romish_a emissary_n like_o the_o old_a serpent_n insidiantur_fw-la calcaneo_fw-la be_v wont_a to_o be_v most_o busy_a and_o troublesome_a to_o our_o people_n at_o the_o end_n of_o their_o life_n labour_v to_o unsettle_v and_o perplex_v they_o in_o time_n of_o sickness_n and_o at_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n that_o therefore_o all_o who_o have_v the_o cure_n of_o soul_n be_v more_o especial_o vigilant_a over_o they_o at_o that_o dangerous_a season_n that_o they_o stay_v not_o till_o they_o be_v send_v for_o but_o inquire_v out_o the_o sick_a in_o their_o respective_a parish_n and_o visit_v they_o frequent_o that_o they_o examine_v they_o particular_o concern_v the_o state_n of_o their_o

for_o they_o and_o by_o all_o the_o method_n which_o our_o church_n prescribe_v prepare_v they_o for_o the_o due_a and_o worthy_a receive_n of_o the_o holy_a eucharist_n the_o pledge_n of_o their_o happy_a resurrection_n thus_o with_o their_o utmost_a diligence_n watch_v over_o every_o sheep_n within_o their_o fold_n especial_o in_o that_o critical_a moment_n lest_o those_o evening_n wolf_n devour_v they_o xi_o that_o they_o also_o walk_v in_o wisdom_n towards_o those_o that_o be_v not_o of_o our_o communion_n and_o if_o there_o be_v in_o their_o parish_n any_o such_o that_o they_o neglect_v not_o frequent_o to_o confer_v with_o they_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n seek_v by_o all_o good_a way_n and_o mean_n to_o gain_v and_o win_v they_o over_o to_o our_o communion_n

a_o full_a compliance_n with_o our_o church_n or_o at_o least_o that_o whereto_o we_o have_v already_o attain_v we_o may_v all_o walk_v by_o the_o same_o rule_n and_o mind_n the_o same_o thing_n and_o in_o order_n hereunto_o that_o they_o take_v all_o opportunity_n of_o assure_v and_o convince_a they_o that_o the_o bishop_n of_o this_o church_n be_v real_o and_o sincere_o irreconcilable_a enemy_n to_o the_o error_n superstition_n idolatry_n and_o tyranny_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o that_o the_o very_a unkind_a jealousy_n which_o some_o have_v have_v of_o we_o to_o the_o contrary_a
