thing_n be_v dear_a and_o nothing_o to_o be_v have_v but_o by_o the_o penny_n 6._o and_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o citizen_n do_v live_v in_o all_o affluence_n and_o abundance_n of_o wealth_n and_o riches_n which_o come_v in_o by_o far_o less_o pain_n than_o the_o country_n man_n do_v take_v who_o gain_n be_v notwithstanding_o far_o inferior_a and_o his_o tithe_n and_o maintenance_n pay_v to_o his_o minister_n far_o superior_a the_o rich_a citizen_n in_o london_n hardly_o pay_v so_o much_o as_o a_o country_n man_n that_o have_v but_o twenty_o or_o ten_o pound_n land_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la in_o his_o occupation_n 7._o and_o that_o the_o snare_n may_v be_v take_v from_o off_o their_o conscience_n which_o will_v lie_v upon_o they_o while_o the_o decree_n be_v in_o force_n and_o so_o

they_o live_v and_o to_o afford_v they_o something_o to_o leave_v to_o their_o wife_n and_o child_n when_o they_o shall_v die_v that_o they_o may_v not_o go_v on_o beg_v when_o their_o husband_n and_o

beyond_o any_o minister_n in_o the_o kingdom_n in_o these_o respect_n it_o may_v be_v wish_v there_o be_v a_o new_a decree_n make_v for_o their_o maintenance_n wherein_o these_o thing_n may_v seem_v convenient_a to_o the_o desire_a purpose_n 1._o that_o all_o house_n within_o the_o wall_n may_v pay_v 2_o s_o in_o the_o pound_n rent_n abate_v the_o odd_a 9.d_o 2._o that_o the_o house_n be_v not_o

fine_a be_v not_o certain_o know_v that_o the_o tenant_n may_v be_v put_v to_o his_o oath_n or_o the_o house_n be_v value_v by_o six_o parishioner_n of_o honest_a note_n three_o choose_v by_o the_o

conceal_v and_o less_o pay_v than_o be_v true_o due_a whensoever_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o light_v the_o arrear_n may_v be_v recoverable_a on_o the_o landlord_n or_o tenant_n or_o either_o of_o they_o their_o rate_n may_v be_v demonstrate_v all_o thing_n consider_v to_o produce_v a_o maintenance_n that_o shall_v not_o exceed_v but_o come_v short_a of_o the_o minister_n maintenance_n pay_v they_o at_o the_o make_n of_o the_o decree_n and_o the_o city_n themselves_o have_v advance_v their_o own_o parsonage_n of_o christ-church_n in_o the_o increase_n of_o tithe_n above_o that_o be_v ancient_o pay_v far_o above_o that_o other_o minister_n have_v do_v in_o the_o city_n and_o it_o will_v be_v so_o easy_a a_o way_n to_o any_o citizen_n as_o may_v be_v if_o he_o pay_v any_o thing_n considerable_a to_o his_o minister_n which_o very_o few_o of_o the_o rich_a sort_n do_v pay_v who_o pay_v not_o so_o much_o for_o the_o ministry_n as_o for_o many_o idle_a vanity_n and_o it_o will_v be_v far_o below_o the_o tithe_n in_o the_o country_n where_o a_o farmer_n pay_v four_o time_n the_o value_n of_o any_o citizen_n in_o london_n if_o not_o many_o time_n four_o time_n and_o it_o be_v suppose_v if_o in_o the_o country_n they_o may_v have_v their_o tithe_n for_o 2._o s._n in_o the_o pound_n rent_n one_o thing_n with_o another_o they_o will_v think_v it_o very_o reasonable_a where_o a_o man_n of_o 100_o pound_n rend_v a_o year_n shall_v scarce_o get_v 100_o l._n in_o a_o lease_n of_o 21._o year_n with_o great_a labour_n and_o hard_a fare_n whereas_o here_o there_o be_v less_o labour_n and_o far_o more_o riches_n get_v and_o many_o a_o needless_a vanity_n that_o may_v be_v spare_v enjoy_v at_o a_o far_o great_a rate_n without_o any_o grudge_n at_o it_o 2._o that_o because_o there_o be_v in_o london_n some_o alley_n and_o house_n that_o have_v be_v give_v to_o several_a parish_n for_o their_o poor_a that_o such_o house_n may_v pay_v no_o more_o tithe_n than_o have_v heretofore_o be_v accustom_v when_o they_o be_v let_v for_o rent_n to_o tenant_n 3_o that_o one_o certain_a table_n of_o duty_n for_o marriage_n burial_n etc._n etc._n may_v be_v make_v all_o over_o the_o city_n and_o hang_v up_o in_o every_o church_n vestry_n in_o london_n and_o the_o certain_a day_n and_o time_n of_o the_o day_n appoint_v for_o the_o performance_n of_o all_o those_o office_n that_o so_o the_o minister_n may_v not_o be_v compel_v to_o attend_v at_o all_o time_n when_o every_o particular_a person_n shall_v think_v fit_a or_o as_o their_o particular_a occasion_n shall_v call_v for_o he_o withou●_z his_o good_a will_n and_o the_o far_a enlargement_n of_o his_o recompense_n it_o be_v a_o great_a hindrance_n to_o his_o study_n and_o other_o employment_n and_o a_o druggery_n very_o unworthy_a to_o be_v impose_v on_o a_o minister_n 4._o the_o minister_n thus_o provide_v for_o if_o the_o parish_n shall_v in_o any_o place_n over_o and_o above_o the_o pain_n he_o be_v able_a to_o take_v or_o desire_v for_o their_o contentment_n to_o have_v a_o lecturer_n that_o they_o suppose_v may_v be_v more_o profitable_a in_o his_o preach_n than_o their_o pastor_n the_o next_o care_n must_v be_v that_o god_n may_v be_v glorify_v and_o man_n build_v up_o to_o heaven_n hereby_o and_o not_o mislead_v by_o unsound_a teacher_n which_o many_o people_n much_o dote_v after_o neither_o that_o the_o man_n that_o be_v choose_v on_o pretence_n to_o further_v the_o peace_n of_o our_o conscience_n be_v a_o occasion_n of_o disquiet_n and_o discontent_n by_o division_n and_o faction_n occasion_v by_o he_o among_o we_o to_o this_o end_n three_o thing_n will_v be_v provide_v for_o the_o first_o concern_v the_o maintenance_n the_o second_o concern_v the_o man_n the_o three_o the_o election_n of_o the_o lecturer_n 1._o first_o the_o maintenance_n of_o a_o lecturer_n will_v be_v make_v certain_a and_o lay_v upon_o every_o house_n to_o be_v pay_v constant_o to_o the_o lecturer_n whosoever_o he_o be_v that_o be_v choose_v and_o not_o be_v pay_v at_o pleasure_n or_o call_v back_o when_o people_n will_v this_o provision_n be_v requisite_a 1._o because_o when_o any_o lecturer_n be_v bring_v into_o a_o parish_n usual_o two_o or_o three_o or_o five_o or_o more_o stand_v for_o the_o lecture_n and_o every_o one_o have_v some_o interest_n in_o the_o parish_n more_o or_o less_o now_o when_o the_o choice_n be_v make_v these_o who_o friend_n fail_v of_o the_o expect_a lecture_n will_v pay_v nothing_o to_o the_o man_n that_o be_v choose_v although_o choose_v by_o the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o parish_n this_o be_v evident_a in_o daily_a experience_n this_o year_n in_o london_n 2._o it_o be_v fit_a that_o so_o the_o minister_n that_o be_v the_o lecturer_n may_v preach_v the_o word_n faithful_o and_o without_o flattery_n which_o a_o dependent_a maintenance_n be_v seldom_o so_o happy_a as_o to_o be_v accompany_v withal_o 3._o thus_o shall_v peace_n and_o brotherly_a love_n be_v maintain_v betwixt_o the_o pastor_n and_o the_o lecturer_n and_o both_o of_o they_o go_v hand_n in_o hand_n and_o heart_n in_o heart_n about_o the_o work_n of_o their_o ministry_n and_o both_o of_o they_o live_v in_o peace_n with_o the_o people_n and_o free_a from_o those_o carnal_a division_n and_o side_n which_o usual_o accompany_v a_o arbitrary_a and_o benevolent_a maintenance_n ii_o for_o the_o man_n that_o the_o people_n may_v not_o bring_v in_o a_o man_n between_o who_o and_o the_o minister_n there_o be_v no_o suitableness_n in_o opinion_n or_o affection_n which_o be_v now_o a_o disease_n of_o many_o people_n who_o can_v be_v please_v with_o no_o man_n but_o incline_v to_o brownism_n or_o otherwise_o factious_a and_o give_v to_o innovation_n and_o therefo●e_n it_o may_v be_v wish_v that_o no_o particular_a man_n be_v bring_v in_o against_o who_o the_o minister_n have_v good_a exception_n and_o for_o that_o purpose_n if_o he_o and_o his_o people_n agree_v not_o together_o about_o the_o choice_n for_o
