which_o can_v stand_v unless_o we_o suppose_v the_o canon_n of_o the_o church_n be_v not_o observe_v because_o it_o be_v not_o record_v how_o they_o be_v observe_v whereas_o all_o reason_n require_v

be_v mere_a nullity_n as_o presume_v to_o be_v do_v by_o they_o that_o never_o receive_v authority_n from_o the_o church_n to_o ordain_v do_v further_o induce_v irregularity_n by_o the_o canon_n of_o

be_v hard_a to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o civil_a trust_n then_o be_v schism_n hard_a to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o trust_v in_o the_o church_n nevertheless_o because_o unity_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o discipline_n and_o because_o experience_n show_v that_o when_o man_n be_v take_v off_o from_o a_o engagement_n in_o division_n they_o prove_v the_o more_o trusty_a the_o more_o weary_a they_o be_v of_o their_o engagement_n it_o have_v be_v often_o practise_v by_o the_o church_n to_o receive_v not_o only_o schismatic_n but_o even_o heretic_n also_o that_o be_v such_o as_o have_v receive_v order_n of_o those_o that_o part_v from_o the_o church_n upon_o a_o error_n in_o faith_n in_o their_o respective_a order_n but_o always_o upon_o condition_n of_o renounce_v the_o cause_n of_o their_o division_n whereupon_o they_o be_v to_o receive_v the_o blessing_n of_o the_o church_n by_o prayer_n with_o imposition_n of_o hand_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o neither_o be_v baptism_n in_o schism_n effectual_a to_o salvation_n nor_o ordination_n in_o schism_n effectual_a to_o grace_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o any_o office_n in_o schism_n but_o be_v renounce_v there_o remain_v no_o

therefore_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o who_o be_v ordain_v by_o presbyter_n can_v be_v receive_v in_o their_o respective_a order_n be_v peremptory_a because_o the_o schism_n consist_v in_o ordain_v against_o authority_n can_v be_v renounce_v unless_o the_o ordination_n be_v void_v for_o so_o long_o as_o the_o ministry_n may_v be_v usurp_v upon_o such_o ordination_n so_o long_o be_v the_o schism_n on_o foot_n i_o do_v very_o well_o know_v that_o the_o ordination_n of_o arian_n be_v allow_v by_o s._n athanasius_n in_o a_o synod_n at_o alexandria_n who_o have_v make_v the_o ordination_n of_o ischyras_n by_o coluthus_n void_a and_o i_o remember_v the_o high_a acclamation_n which_o s._n hierom_n applaud_v his_o act_n with_o that_o thereby_o the_o world_n be_v snatch_v out_o of_o

church_n of_o receive_v the_o donatist_n in_o their_o order_n notwithstanding_o the_o complaint_n of_o the_o african_a bishop_n that_o without_o they_o they_o have_v not_o clergy_n enough_o to_o

that_o be_v indeed_o something_o like_o that_o which_o have_v be_v demand_v that_o weakness_n shall_v entitle_v to_o the_o clergy_n which_o orderly_o suppose_v strength_n but_o do_v he_o enjoin_v far_o that_o they_o shall_v minister_v without_o order_n that_o continue_v layman_n they_o shall_v commit_v the_o sacrilege_n of_o usurp_a to_o celebrate_v the_o eucharist_n that_o if_o their_o

of_o the_o kingdom_n i_o will_v fain_o have_v any_o of_o they_o that_o will_v wear_v the_o face_n and_o the_o conscience_n of_o a_o good_a christian_a and_o a_o good_a english_a man_n both_o give_v

for_o my_o part_n who_o be_o no_o man_n foe_n but_o my_o own_o in_o publish_v my_o opinion_n thus_o free_o upon_o this_o exigent_n i_o think_v i_o do_v good_a service_n to_o they_o with_o my_o

which_o be_v already_o adopt_a may_v be_v limit_v within_o those_o bound_n with_o the_o roman_a law_n and_o by_o consequence_n the_o primitive_a canon_n of_o the_o church_n which_o the_o roman_a law_n

the_o land_n and_o into_o authority_n in_o our_o court_n of_o equity_n and_o of_o reconcile_n thereby_o the_o cross-interest_n of_o the_o profession_n upon_o competence_n of_o jurisdiction_n but_o though_o i_o must_v needs_o have_v that_o opinion_n myself_o which_o i_o can_v see_v nothing_o against_o see_v much_o for_o it_o yet_o i_o will_v trouble_v no_o man_n with_o a_o opinion_n which_o neither_o my_o profession_n oblige_v i_o nor_o my_o skill_n inable_v i_o to_o make_v out_o it_o shall_v be_v enough_o for_o i_o to_o observe_v that_o they_o shall_v deserve_v to_o be_v count_v
