of_o death_n and_o the_o due_a preparation_n to_o it_o for_o there_o he_o have_v these_o expression_n which_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o divide_v into_o part_n first_o that_o god_n will_v preserve_v the_o supplicant_n ever_o in_o the_o communion_n and_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n second_o bless_v his_o deathbed_n with_o a_o holy_a and_o spiritual_a guide_n which_o be_v a_o priest_n three_o with_o the_o assistance_n and_o guard_n of_o angel_n four_o with_o perception_n of_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n five_o with_o patience_n and_o dereliction_n of_o his_o own_o desire_n six_o with_o a_o

neglect_v those_o mean_n that_o god_n have_v be_v so_o gracious_o please_v to_o empower_v his_o priest_n to_o communicate_v unto_o you_o until_o the_o second_o come_v of_o his_o son_n until_o which_o day_n after_o you_o shall_v depart_v this_o transitory_a world_n the_o great_a god_n of_o heaven_n grant_v that_o your_o soul_n in_o the_o arm_n of_o the_o holy_a jesus_n may_v be_v deposit_v with_o safety_n and_o joy_n there_o to_o expect_v the_o revelation_n of_o that_o day_n and_o then_o to_o partake_v of_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o kingdom_n amen_n and_o since_o i_o be_o go_v thus_o far_o i_o will_v proceed_v a_o little_a further_o to_o give_v you_o a_o few_o particular_n both_o of_o the_o church_n and_o your_o behaviour_n in_o public_a assembly_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v in_o this_o world_n and_o to_o be_v without_o enemy_n for_o it_o be_v the_o lot_n which_o befall_v our_o bless_a saviour_n and_o his_o apostle_n so_o the_o church_n can_v be_v without_o they_o some_o especial_o there_o be_v that_o strike_v at_o the_o very_a root_n of_o all_o and_o say_v that_o upon_o the_o death_n of_o queen_n mary_n none_o of_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n can_v be_v prevail_v with_o to_o consecrate_v the_o bishop_n appoint_v by_o queen_n elizabeth_n but_o that_o she_o appoint_v they_o by_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o so_o the_o succession_n of_o consecration_n of_o bishop_n from_o our_o saviour_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n fail_v which_o can_v not_o be_v continue_v by_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o their_o succession_n fail_v the_o successive_a power_n of_o ordination_n of_o priest_n must_v likewise_o fail_v so_o no_o bishop_n no_o priest_n no_o priest_n no_o church_n but_o certain_o this_o be_v but_o a_o device_n of_o saunders_n and_o some_o other_o for_o matthew_n parker_n who_o be_v archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n be_v the_o first_o bishop_n consecrate_a in_o queen_n elizabeth_n her_o time_n and_o be_v

can_v only_o let_v you_o know_v my_o weak_a judgement_n therein_o and_o the_o observation_n i_o have_v make_v by_o the_o read_n of_o many_o learned_a and_o pious_a author_n that_o the_o frame_n be_v as_o apostolical_a and_o according_a to_o the_o primitive_a institution_n as_o possible_o can_v be_v imagine_v two_o thing_n i_o observe_v out_o of_o dr._n heylin_n speak_v of_o the_o opinion_n of_o

of_o the_o church_n may_v establish_v wherein_o certain_o say_v he_o they_o deal_v more_o advise_o then_o their_o neighbour_n who_o in_o mere_a detestation_n to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n abrogate_a such_o thing_n altogether_o which_o their_o abuse_n have_v defile_v though_o never_o so_o decent_a in_o themselves_o and_o allow_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n and_o certain_o say_v he_o i_o persuade_v myself_o have_v the_o reform_a party_n abroad_o continue_v a_o allowable_a correspondency_n in_o some_o thing_n with_o the_o romish_a church_n as_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v now_o it_o have_v be_v to_o their_o advantage_n far_o great_a and_o less_o stomach_v and_o this_o be_v the_o censure_n of_o monsieur_fw-fr de_fw-fr rhosney_n duke_n of_o sicily_n at_o such_o time_n as_o be_v ambassador_n here_o for_o the_o king_n of_o france_n he_o have_v observe_v the_o majesty_n and_o decency_n of_o our_o church_n service_n in_o cathedral_n i_o have_v also_o hear_v it_o say_v he_o report_v that_o when_o peter_n du_fw-fr moulin_n that_o great_a light_n of_o the_o church_n of_o france_n hear_v how_o indiscreet_o some_o of_o our_o english_a clergy_n have_v silence_v themselves_o because_o the_o cap_n and_o surplice_n be_v command_v he_o reply_v that_o will_v the_o king_n of_o france_n give_v he_o a_o general_a licence_n to_o preach_v in_o paris_n though_o it_o be_v in_o a_o

be_v very_o true_a as_o the_o say_v learned_a dr._n heylin_n very_o worthy_o observe_v that_o the_o jesuit_n and_o the_o puritan_n be_v the_o very_a disturber_n of_o our_o peace_n and_o a_o long_a

of_o queen_n elizabeth_n those_o that_o continue_v member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o yet_o will_v not_o acknowledge_v the_o queen_n supremacy_n yet_o for_o the_o glorious_a order_n sake_n of_o the_o service_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v constant_o repair_v to_o the_o english_a service_n and_o never_o leave_v the_o same_o out_o of_o any_o dislike_n they_o have_v to_o it_o
