priest_n aaron_n ceremony_n be_v utter_o abrogate_a and_o therefore_o they_o can_v ●e_v call_v again_o of_o those_o that_o mean_v well_o use_v godly_a the_o second_o foundation_n of_o your_o reason_n be_v that_o these_o diversity_n of_o vesture_n be_v invent_v of_o antichrist_n therefore_o we_o ought_v not_o only_o to_o forsake_v the_o pope_n but_o all_o his_o invention_n beside_o this_o you_o

i_o will_v first_o entreat_v of_o they_o afterward_o i_o will_v add_v whatsoever_o it_o be_v if_o i_o can_v call_v to_o my_o remembrance_n any_o other_o thing_n bring_v in_o of_o you_o to_o confirm_v your_o opinion_n in_o moses_n law_n or_o priesthood_n after_o aaron_n order_n there_o be_v sacrament_n with_o the_o which_o it_o please_v god_n to_o confirm_v as_o i_o may_v say_v by_o put_v his_o

bread_n wine_n and_o water_n therefore_o we_o need_v not_o call_v again_o sign_n for_o this_o purpose_n use_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n there_o be_v also_o in_o that_o law_n other_o sign_n and_o

i_o judge_v may_v be_v restore_v and_o retain_v as_o thing_n agree_v to_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n &_o induce_v to_o some_o profitable_a use_n who_o do_v not_o see_v that_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o intent_n they_o that_o believe_v may_v live_v more_o peaceable_o and_o quiet_o do_v command_v the_o gentile_n to_o abstain_v from_o blood_n and_o strangle_v and_o yet_o these_o thing_n without_o

with_o this_o one_o inconvenience_n although_o i_o wish_v by_o all_o mean_n that_o no_o superfluous_a thing_n shall_v be_v force_v upon_o they_o but_o let_v we_o consider_v your_o other_o argument_n that_o be_v to_o say_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o use_v these_o kind_n of_o vesture_n because_o they_o be_v invent_v of_o the_o pope_n tyranny_n in_o this_o point_n i_o do_v not_o well_o perceive_v

i_o say_v they_o do_v nothing_o stick_v or_o fear_v to_o use_v they_o when_o it_o seem_v to_o they_o convenient_a imitate_v paul_n the_o apostle_n who_o stock_n nothing_o at_o all_o to_o rehearse_v

it_o be_v evident_a at_o saint_n paul_n time_n by_o the_o most_o clear_a scripture_n of_o god_n that_o the_o use_n of_o day_n meat_n and_o all_o other_o extern_a thing_n be_v make_v free_a &_o it_o

therefore_o to_o be_v contemn_v or_o to_o be_v call_v into_o question_n for_o her_o judgement_n sake_n that_o church_n very_o will_v keep_v in_o these_o thing_n a_o mean_a agreeable_a to_o the_o

pure_a and_o holy_a church_n because_o they_o have_v no_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n nor_o no_o example_n of_o it_o i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o you_o can_v grant_v to_o any_o church_n that_o it_o may_v celebrate_v the_o lord_n supper_n in_o the_o morning_n and_o in_o a_o open_a church_n especial_o consecrate_v to_o the_o lord_n that_o the_o sacrament_n may_v be_v distribute_v to_o man_n

and_o sit_v at_o the_o table_n but_o it_o will_v be_v object_v that_o in_o england_n many_o use_n vesture_n with_o manifest_a superstition_n and_o that_o they_o do_v norishe_v &_o confirm_v in_o the_o
