make_v good_a these_o two_o point_n as_o i_o conceive_v both_o full_a and_o proper_a for_o the_o occasion_n first_o that_o episcopacy_n be_v a_o lawful_a most_o ancient_a holy_a and_o divine_a institution_n i_o mean_v that_o which_o be_v join_v with_o imparity_n and_o superiority_n of_o jurisdiction_n and_o therefore_o where_o it_o have_v through_o god_n providence_n obtain_v can_v by_o any_o humane_a power_n be_v abdicate_v without_o a_o manifest_a violation_n of_o god_n ordinance_n second_o that_o the_o presbiterian_a government_n how_o ever_o vindicate_v under_o the_o glorious_a name_n of_o christ_n kingdom_n and_o ordinance_n have_v no_o true_a foot_n either_o in_o scripture_n or_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n in_o all_o age_n from_o christ_n time_n till_o the_o present_a and_o that_o howsoever_o it_o may_v be_v of_o use_n in_o some_o such_o city_n or_o territory_n as_o wherein_o episcopal_a government_n through_o iniquity_n of_o time_n can_v be_v have_v yet_o to_o obtrude_v it_o upon_o a_o church_n otherwise_o settle_v under_o a_o acknowledge_a monarchy_n be_v utter_o uncongruous_a and_o unjustifiable_a before_o the_o proof_n of_o which_o two_o head_n i_o purpose_v to_o lay_v down_o certain_a clear_a and_o undeniable_a postulata_fw-la some_o 15._o or_o 16_o in_o number_n as_o the_o ground_n of_o my_o follow_a ark_n such_o as_o these_o 1._o that_o government_n which_o be_v of_o apostolical_a institution_n can_v be_v deny_v to_o be_v of_o divine_a institution_n 2._o not_o only_o that_o government_n which_o be_v direct_o command_v and_o enact_v but_o also_o that_o which_o be_v practise_v and_o recommend_v by_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o church_n must_v just_o pass_v for_o a_o apostolical_a institution_n 3._o that_o which_o the_o apostle_n by_o divine_a inspiration_n institute_v be_v not_o for_o the_o present_a time_n but_o for_o continuance_n 4._o the_o universal_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n immediate_o succeed_v the_o apostle_n be_v the_o best_a and_o sure_a commentary_n upon_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n or_o of_o their_o expression_n 5._o we_o may_v not_o entertain_v so_o irreverent_a a_o opinion_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o father_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n that_o they_o who_o be_v the_o immediate_a successor_n of_o the_o apostle_n will_v or_o dare_v set_v up_o a_o government_n either_o faulty_a or_o of_o their_o own_o head_n 6._o if_o they_o will_v have_v be_v so_o presumptuous_a yet_o they_o can_v not_o have_v diffuse_v one_o uniform_a order_n of_o government_n through_o the_o whole_a world_n in_o so_o short_a a_o space_n 7._o the_o ancient_a history_n of_o the_o church_n and_o write_n of_o the_o elder_a father_n be_v rather_o to_o be_v believe_v in_o the_o report_n of_o the_o primitive_a of_o the_o church_n government_n than_o those_o of_o this_o last_o age._n 8._o those_o who_o the_o ancient_a church_n of_o god_n and_o the_o holy_a and_o orthodox_n father_n condemn_v for_o error_n or_o heresy_n be_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v follow_v as_o author_n of_o our_o opinion_n or_o practice_n for_o church_n government_n 9_o the_o accession_n of_o honourable_a title_n or_o privilege_n make_v no_o difference_n in_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o call_v 10._o those_o scripture_n wherein_o any_o new_a form_n of_o government_n be_v ground_v have_v need_n to_o be_v very_o

upon_o these_o ground_n lay_v i_o shall_v come_v to_o subsume_v and_o shall_v both_o convince_v the_o faction_n in_o aberration_n from_o they_o and_o full_o prove_v the_o two_o point_n intend_v after_o which_o with_o some_o observation_n and_o query_n i_o shall_v shut_v up_o in_o a_o vehement_a exhortation_n both_o to_o they_o and_o to_o our_o own_o if_o it_o may_v be_v for_o the_o reduce_n of_o the_o one_o if_o not_o
through_o side_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n they_o do_v but_o give_v deadly_a and_o mortal_a wound_n to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n who_o affirm_v that_o papist_n be_v damn_v four_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n to_o christian_a religion_n for_o we_o be_v to_o preach_v the_o mean_n how_o man_n may_v attain_v salvation_n and_o to_o pteach_v christ_n as_o a_o saviour_n we_o must_v not_o rash_o intrude_v upon_o his_o judicial_a power_n on_o every_o slight_a occasion_n to_o point_v out_o those_o that_o be_v damn_v as_o if_o we_o will_v shorten_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o monopolise_v they_o whole_o to_o ourselves_o there_o be_v no_o militant_a church_n without_o blemish_n and_o imperfection_n but_o as_o long_o as_o the_o foundation_n be_v sound_a that_o we_o bebeive_v in_o

contain_v in_o the_o bound_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n thus_o the_o greek_a church_n and_o the_o latin_a church_n may_v be_v save_v both_o though_o they_o have_v difference_n between_o themselves_o and_o thus_o the_o christian_n that_o live_v in_o those_o part_n of_o the_o world_n which_o have_v be_v late_o discover_v and_o therefore_o do_v never_o partake_v with_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n yet_o no_o doubt_n but_o those_o may_v be_v save_v five_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o proper_a to_o christian_n as_o love_v and_o charity_n and_o a_o man_n may_v be_v damn_v as_o well_o for_o want_v of_o charity_n as_o for_o want_v of_o faith_n and_o there_o can_v be_v possible_a a_o great_a want_n of_o charity_n then_o to_o exclude_v man_n from_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o they_o who_o be_v apt_a in_o their_o own_o ungodly_a malice_n to_o damn_v other_o certain_o themselves_o be_v damn_v let_v it_o suffice_v that_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v ask_v god_n forgiveness_n of_o his_o sin_n as_o no_o doubt_n every_o man_n do_v for_o it_o be_v one_o part_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n and_o these_o sin_n do_v imply_v not_o only_o the_o transgression_n of_o our_o life_n but_o likewise_o the_o erour_n of_o our_o faith_n so_o that_o ask_v god_n forgiveness_n no_o doubt_n but_o god_n be_v merciful_a and_o here_o i_o must_v likewise_o express_v my_o great_a sorrow_n and_o grief_n that_o i_o have_v so_o much_o offend_v aghasted_n the_o memory_n of_o our_o forefather_n and_o progenitor_n such_o as_o build_v our_o church_n and_o be_v the_o mean_n under_o

nothing_o but_o only_a to_o damn_v they_o no_o god_n forbid_v and_o therefore_o in_o all_o humility_n and_o obedience_n i_o do_v here_o acknowledge_v my_o great_a fault_n and_o do_v ask_v forgiveness_n of_o god_n of_o the_o church_n and_o of_o our_o reverend_a diocesan_n and_o i_o desire_v you_o all_o to_o testify_v this_o my_o sorrow_n and_o unfeigned_a repentance_n note_n by_o all_o
