i_o be_v certain_a contain_v in_o divers_a canon_n and_o article_n of_o the_o church_n the_o independent_n be_v another_o thing_n or_o to_o use_v your_o own_o word_n will_n may_v for_o aught_o i_o

your_o single_a presbyter_n if_o such_o have_v no_o limit_n he_o may_v lead_v his_o flock_n as_o he_o please_v all_o depend_v on_o the_o breath_n of_o one_o mouth_n w._n there_o you_o be_v out_o

have_v be_v too_o long_o clog_v j._n that_o be_v fine_a will_n do_v the_o dissenter_n indeed_o then_o preach_v and_o rule_v by_o inspire_a method_n you_o know_v ibid._n know_v ibid._n protestant_n hold_v no_o church_n or_o council_n infallible_a but_o if_o these_o be_v guide_v by_o immediate_a inspiration_n it_o can_v be_v nothing_o less_o which_o the_o church_n of_o england_n never_o pretend_v to_o all_o that_o she_o aim_v at_o amount_v to_o no_o more_o than_o to_o hold_v the_o same_o scripture_n with_o all_o sound_a christian_n for_o her_o rule_n out_o of_o which_o she_o have_v draw_v her_o doctrine_n not_o only_o of_o faith_n but_o also_o of_o worship_n and_o of_o discipline_n contain_v in_o she_o 39_o article_n w._n well_o but_o they_o hold_v no_o other_o rule_n but_o the_o

which_o be_v all_o the_o deduction_n of_o man_n as_o well_o as_o we_o how_o then_o can_v they_o have_v high_a pretension_n than_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o since_o their_o praying_n and_o preach_n be_v as_o much_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n as_o those_o of_o the_o church_n why_o shall_v not_o they_o be_v account_v humane_a as_o well_o as_o she_o and_o i_o be_o afraid_a they_o general_o discover_v more_o of_o humane_a imperfection_n in_o they_o for_o want_v of_o learning_n and_o good_a sense_n and_o i_o can_v tell_v how_o these_o man_n shall_v be_v wise_a than_o our_o reformer_n and_o the_o whole_a church_n since_o but_o as_o for_o their_o honesty_n and_o sincerity_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o it_o may_v well_o be_v call_v into_o question_n w._n now_o you_o say_v something_o to_o the_o purpose_n jack_n j._n well_o will_n i_o make_v bold_a to_o add_v more_o viz._n that_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n be_v of_o very_o ancient_a use_n and_o authority_n upon_o which_o account_n they_o can_v but_o be_v account_v far_o safe_a and_o better_o ground_v and_o as_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o episcopacy_n may_v evident_o be_v prove_v to_o have_v a_o divine_a and_o apostolic_a stamp_n upon_o it_o so_o all_o our_o controversy_n will_v soon_o end_v by_o a_o universal_a consent_n to_o that_o doctrine_n beside_o will_n it_o be_v certain_a our_o church_n be_v never_o ashamed_a of_o her_o principle_n have_v fix_v they_o in_o print_n and_o you_o know_v friend_n litera_fw-la scripta_fw-la manet_fw-la as_o a_o sure_a and_o last_a

i_o tell_v thou_o man_z if_o we_o take_v jerusalem_n for_o a_o fix_a meridian_n you_o will_v find_v they_o both_o far_o remove_v from_o that_o holy_a city_n w._n what_o do_v you_o reckon_v then_o
