A07039	Hay any worke for Cooper: or a briefe pistle directed by waye of an hublication to the reverende byshopps counselling them, if they will needs be barrelled vp, for feare of smelling in the nostrels of her Maiestie [and] the state, that they would vse the aduise of reuerend Martin, for the prouiding of their cooper. Because the reuerend T.C. (by which misticall letters, is vnderstood, eyther the bounsing parson of Eastmeane, or Tom Coakes his chaplaine) to bee an vnskilfull and a beceytfull [sic] tubtrimmer. Wherein worthy Martin quits himselfe like a man I warrant you, in the modest defence of his selfe and his learned pistles, and makes the coopers hoopes to flye off, and the Bishops tubs to leake out of all crye.

magistrate_n have_v neither_o the_o skill_n nor_o the_o commission_n to_o make_v the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n because_o he_o can_v tell_v to_o what_o use_n the_o member_n of_o his_o make_n may_v serve_v in_o the_o church_n do_v you_o think_v t.c._n that_o the_o maiestrat_n may_v make_v a_o eye_n for_o the_o visible_a body_n of_o the_o church_n for_o you_o must_v understand_v that_o we_o all_o this_o while_o speak_v of_o the_o visible_a body_n can_v he_o make_v a_o foot_n or_o a_o hand_n for_o that_o body_n i_o pray_v you_o in_o what_o place_n of_o the_o body_n will_v you_o have_v they_o place_v if_o our_o saviour_n christ_n have_v leave_v behind_o he_o a_o perfect_a body_n sure_o he_o have_v leave_v therein_o no_o place_n or_o no_o use_v for_o member_n of_o the_o magistrate_n make_v &_o invention_n if_o a_o unperfect_a and_o maim_a body_n i_o be_o well_o assure_v that_o the_o magistrate_n be_v not_o able_a to_o perfect_v that_o which_o he_o leave_v unfinished_a but_o i_o hope_v t.c._n that_o thou_o will_v not_o be_v so_o mad_a and_z wicked_a as_o to_o say_v that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n left_z behind_o he_o here_o on_o earth_n a_o unperfect_a and_o maim_a body_n if_o not_o then_z where_o shall_v these_o office_n namely_o these_o member_n invent_v by_o the_o magistrate_n be_v place_v therein_o will_v you_o have_v the_o natural_a eye_n put_v out_o as_o your_o brethren_n the_o bishop_n have_v do_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n ever_o since_o john_n of_o canterbury_n urge_v his_o wretched_a subscription_n and_o unnatural_a squint_a gogled_a eye_n put_v in_o their_o steed_n when_o the_o body_n can_v see_v with_o any_o eye_n but_z with_o the_o natural_a eye_n thereof_o displace_v they_o howsoever_o you_o may_v seem_v to_o help_v the_o matter_n by_o put_v other_o in_o their_o steed_n yet_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v still_o blind_a and_o maim_a what_o say_v you_o t.c._n may_v the_o magistrate_n cut_v of_o the_o true_a and_o natural_a leg_n and_o hand_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christe_o under_o a_o pretence_n to_o put_v wooden_a in_o their_o steed_n i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o say_v that_o he_o may_v how_o then_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v t.c._n that_o you_o hold_v john_n of_o canterbury_n his_o office_n and_o john_n mar-elms_a to_o be_v true_a and_o natural_a member_n of_o the_o body_n that_z be_v true_a officer_n of_o the_o church_n and_o yet_o hold_v it_o lawful_a for_o her_o majesty_n to_o displace_v they_o out_o of_o the_o church_n icannot_a tell_v brother_n what_o you_o hold_v in_o this_o point_n i_o think_v i_o have_v disturb_v your_o sense_n do_v you_o think_v that_o the_o maiestrat_n may_v displace_v the_o true_a member_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o place_n wooden_a in_o their_o steed_n why_o this_o be_v to_o hold_v it_o lawful_a for_o the_o magistrate_n to_o massacre_v the_o body_n do_v you_o think_v he_o may_v not_o then_o may_v not_o her_o majesty_n displace_v john_n of_o canterbury_n office_n out_o of_o our_o church_n if_o she_o may_v not_o displace_v his_o office_n then_o either_o he_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o office_n be_v a_o lawful_a pope_n above_o all_o civil_a magistrate_n or_o else_o the_o church_n government_n be_v so_o prescribe_v in_o the_o word_n as_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o the_o magestrate_n to_o alter_v the_o same_o but_o john_n of_o canterbury_n as_o the_o puritan_n themselves_o confess_v be_v no_o pope_n pope_n puritan_n confess_v john_n cant._n to_o be_v no_o pope_n then_o either_o the_o church_n government_n be_v so_o prescribe_v in_o the_o word_n as_o it_o may_v not_o be_v alter_v or_o else_o the_o magestrat_n may_v abolish_v a_o lawful_a church_n government_n and_o place_v another_o in_o stead_n thereof_o if_o the_o church_n government_n be_v so_o prescribe_v in_o the_o word_n as_o it_o can_v be_v alter_v then_o either_o our_o government_n be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v therein_o prescribe_v or_o our_o church_n government_n be_v a_o false_a churchgoverment_n if_o we_o be_v the_o same_o which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o word_n then_o paul_n and_o peter_n be_v either_o no_o true_a church_n governor_n or_o else_o paul_n and_o peter_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o church_n governor_n in_o their_o time_n be_v lord_n for_o all_o our_o church_n governor_n be_v lord_n but_o paul_n and_o peter_n etc._n etc._n be_v no_o lord_n and_z yet_o true_a church_n governor_n therefore_o our_o church_n government_n be_v not_o that_o which_o be_v prescribe_v in_o the_o word_n and_o therefore_o a_o false_a and_o unlawful_a church_n government_n if_o you_o think_v that_o the_o magistrate_n may_v displace_v the_o lawful_a office_n of_o the_o body_n then_o as_o i_o say_v before_o you_o hold_v it_o lawful_a for_o the_o magistrate_n to_o maim_v or_o deform_v the_o body_n because_o whatsoever_o he_o pull_v in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o true_a and_o right_a member_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o deformity_n and_o what_o

the_o member_n of_o his_o body_n to_o wit_n the_o officer_n of_o his_o church_n he_o may_v lawful_o do_v it_o so_z can_v man_n and_o therefore_o the_o sot_n of_o which_o number_n you_o t.c._n and_o

which_o can_v best_o tell_v what_o member_n be_v fit_v for_o his_o church_n do_v abolishe_v they_o if_o unlawful_o then_o those_o calling_n may_v be_v lawful_o call_v back_o again_o into_o the_o
