the_o better_a sort_n by_o your_o own_o confession_n do_v come_v to_o we_o the_o worse_a and_o base_a sort_n remain_v still_o with_o you_o and_o this_o much_o for_o answer_v to_o your_o second_o demand_n now_o to_o your_o three_o this_o your_o three_o demand_n be_v of_o another_o kind_n differ_v from_o the_o former_a for_o here_o you_o seem_v to_o leave_v your_o national_a church_n and_o

to_o know_v whether_o those_o reform_a assembly_n whereof_o you_o speak_v be_v worse_o than_o the_o jew_n synagogue_n and_o your_o minister_n worse_o than_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n which_o sit_v in_o moses_n chayer_n who_o christ_n command_v the_o people_n to_o hear_v etc._n etc._n 3_o answ_n your_o demand_n then_o be_v only_o in_o desence_n of_o your_o reform_a assembly_n it_o have_v be_v well_o if_o you_o have_v show_v we_o where_o and_o which_o those_o assembly_n be_v that_o be_v reform_v we_o know_v indeed_o that_o many_o among_o you_o both_o minister_n and_o people_n have_v make_v much_o suit_n to_o parliament_n and_o write_v many_o book_n of_o which_o i_o have_v read_v some_o for_o reformation_n of_o your_o church_n and_o ministry_n but_o still_o to_o the_o best_a of_o our_o discern_a all_o your_o parish_n assembly_n be_v as_o before_o under_o one_o and_o the_o same_o order_n and_o manner_n of_o worship_n ministry_n and_o confusion_n of_o people_n all_o govern_v by_o the_o fame_n spiritual_a law_n &_o spiritual_a lord_n their_o spiritual_a court_n and_o canon_n all_o be_v still_o one_o church_n all_o one_o communion_n and_o fellowship_n so_o that_o your_o demand_n be_v only_o for_o your_o reform_a assembly_n and_o yet_o you_o tell_v we_o not_o which_o nor_o where_o they_o be_v how_o can_v we_o give_v you_o a_o direct_a answer_n to_o your_o demand_n first_o therefore_o tell_v we_o where_o and_o which_o those_o assemble_v be_v that_o be_v reform_v &_o then_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o direct_a answer_n god_n willing_a in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o will_v take_v this_o for_o one_o advantage_n among_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v that_o there_o appear_v a_o check_n in_o your_o conscience_n because_o you_o make_v your_o defence_n or_o demand_v but_o for_o a_o part_n of_o your_o church_n that_o be_v your_o reform_a assembly_n whereby_o you_o intimate_v that_o there_o be_v a_o worse_a sort_n of_o assembly_n that_o be_v unreform_v which_o you_o will_v not_o plead_v for_o where_o as_o if_o your_o church_n or_o church-assembly_n of_o england_n be_v christ_n true_a church_n we_o think_v you_o shall_v have_v labour_v to_o defend_v the_o whole_a be_v not_o every_o one_o of_o christ_n true_a church_n to_o be_v defend_v how_o deceitful_o then_o do_v you_o deal_v with_o your_o church_n that_o seek_v to_o uphould_v your_o reform_a assemble_v
