of_o a_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n compose_v by_o private_a man_n nor_o by_o a_o certain_a number_n of_o man_n and_o after_o public_o confirm_v sure_o this_o will_v make_v any_o man_n think_v my_o

gift_n and_o grace_n which_o christ_n have_v give_v unto_o man_n which_o the_o apostle_n never_o exercise_v nor_o will_v assume_v and_o yet_o they_o may_v much_o better_o have_v do_v it_o and_o the_o

willing_a to_o take_v my_o lord_n be_v mean_v at_o the_o fair_a that_o my_o lord_n can_v digest_v some_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n but_o he_o will_v have_v no_o injunction_n upon_o they_o so_o he_o that_o will_v use_v they_o might_n and_o he_o that_o will_v not_o might_n choose_v and_o this_o in_o short_a time_n will_v bring_v mere_a confusion_n into_o the_o church_n of_o god_n which_o i_o hope_n be_v not_o my_o lord_n intention_n to_o do_v beside_o my_o lord_n can_v but_o know_v that_o this_o injunction_n for_o our_o set_a form_n of_o service_n come_v not_o from_o the_o church_n direction_n and_o constitution_n though_o her_o wisdom_n and_o piety_n frame_v it_o but_o from_o the_o authority_n and_o power_n of_o king_n and_o parliament_n so_o that_o all_o the_o argument_n which_o his_o lordship_n bring_v here_o against_o the_o church_n be_v equal_o if_o not_o more_o set_v against_o the_o king_n and_o the_o parliament_n well_o why_o then_o be_v not_o a_o injunction_n of_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n fit_a why_o my_o lord_n tell_v you_o first_o because_o it_o be_v a_o usurpation_n of_o power_n over_o the_o church_n of_o christ._n it_o be_v indeed_o a_o act_n of_o power_n but_o no_o usurpation_n the_o church_n direct_v and_o the_o sovereign_n enact_v ever_o have_v this_o power_n since_o state_n become_v christian._n and_o shall_v i_o have_v call_v it_o a_o usurpation_n of_o power_n his_o lordship_n i_o fear_v will_v have_v call_v it_o treason_n against_o the_o king_n supremacy_n but_o i_o doubt_v my_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o church_n free_a from_o regal_a power_n have_v aught_o to_o do_v with_o they_o dare_v he_o speak_v out_o second_o because_o it_o be_v a_o usurpation_n of_o power_n over_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n which_o god_n have_v give_v unto_o men._n not_o so_o neither_o for_o whatsoever_o gift_n or_o grace_n god_n have_v give_v unto_o man_n they_o may_v all_o have_v time_n place_n and_o occasion_n enough_o to_o use_v they_o to_o god_n glory_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o themselves_o and_o other_o and_o yet_o in_o the_o public_a service_n of_o god_n submit_v to_o that_o set_a form_n of_o god_n worship_n which_o be_v enjoin_v for_o unity_n and_o decency_n in_o that_o external_n service_n so_o this_o lay_v no_o restraint_n upon_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o pious_a and_o religious_a man_n but_o it_o keep_v off_o bold_a ignorant_a and_o audacious_a man_n from_o foam_v out_o their_o own_o shame_n to_o the_o great_a disorder_n and_o scandal_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ._n as_o we_o may_v see_v at_o this_o day_n now_o that_o injunction_n begin_v to_o be_v but_o a_o little_a loose_v what_o froth_n and_o base_a stuff_n be_v preach_v to_o the_o conscience_n of_o men._n and_o yet_o these_o man_n which_o preach_v thus_o scandalous_o talk_v of_o gift_n and_o grace_n none_o more_o three_o because_o the_o apostle_n never_o exercise_v nor_o will_v assume_v this_o power_n of_o enjoin_v a_o set_a

apostle_n do_v exercise_n and_o assume_v many_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o come_v down_o to_o our_o knowledge_n and_o since_o the_o apostle_n do_v enjoin_v a_o form_n of_o doctrine_n to_o the_o

power_n and_o they_o to_o teach_v and_o learn_v second_o because_o christ_n disciple_n seem_v to_o intimate_v so_o much_o for_o they_o desire_v christ_n to_o teach_v they_o to_o pray_v as_o st._n john_n teach_v his_o disciple_n and_o christ_n 2._o instant_o grant_v their_o request_n teach_v they_o a_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n therefore_o it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a that_o st._n john_n teach_v his_o so_o too_o though_o the_o form_n be_v not_o record_v in_o scripture_n upon_o all_o which_o lay_v together_o it_o be_v probable_a enough_o by_o my_o lord_n leave_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v exercise_n some_o set_a form_n that_o at_o lest_o which_o christ_n teach_v they_o and_o assume_v power_n to_o enjoin_v it_o upon_o their_o follower_n but_o herein_o yet_o the_o apostle_n be_v somewhat_o behold_v to_o this_o lord_n that_o he_o re-allows_a they_o may_v better_o have_v do_v it_o than_o any_o now-adays_a well_o i_o will_v not_o dispute_v what_o they_o may_v better_o have_v do_v sure_o i_o be_o it_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v do_v now_o four_o because_o the_o same_o reason_n may_v then_o have_v be_v allege_v for_o it_o that_o be_v now_o the_o same_o might_n but_o

that_o one_o of_o his_o clergy_n in_o bedfordshire_n a_o learned_a and_o pious_a man_n as_o he_o say_v set_v up_o a_o stone_n upon_o pillar_n of_o brick_n for_o his_o communion-table_n believe_v it_o to_o have_v be_v the_o altar-stone_n far_a and_o because_o this_o appear_v to_o be_v but_o a_o grave-stone_n and_o for_o avoid_v of_o far_a rumour_n in_o that_o country_n among_o the_o preciser_n

without_o the_o knowledge_n and_o approbation_n of_o his_o ordinary_n the_o second_o be_v that_o there_o be_v rise_v some_o difference_n in_o the_o southern_a part_n of_o his_o diocese_n about_o the_o
