call_v dalmatica_fw-la and_o so_o stand_v in_o linen_n chrysostome_n make_v mention_n of_o 60._o the_o white_a vesture_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n moreover_o the_o ancient_a writer_n

have_v it_o yet_o notwithstanding_o for_o the_o respect_n of_o the_o papistical_a invention_n in_o they_o i_o can_v not_o be_v persuade_v so_o much_o impiety_n to_o be_v therein_o that_o whatsoever_o it_o touch_v it_o do_v by_o and_o by_o so_o infect_a and_o corrupt_a that_o it_o can_v be_v lawful_a for_o good_a and_o godly_a man_n to_o use_v it_o godly_a i_o suppose_v you_o understande_v what_o

but_o man_n invention_n that_o we_o communicate_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n rather_o in_o the_o morning_n then_o when_o we_o have_v dine_v it_o be_v also_o devyse_v by_o man_n that_o the_o value_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v to_o be_v divide_v in_o the_o primative_a church_n be_v lay_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o apostle_n i_o grant_v with_o you_o that_o these_o choyse_n of_o apparel_n do_v not_o of_o itself_o edify_v and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o other_o man_n will_v judge_v it_o expedient_a that_o they_o be_v tolerate_v for_o a_o time_n as_o though_o peradventure_o by_o that_o mean_n these_o contention_n will_v be_v avoid_v by_o which_o it_o be_v in_o hazard_n lest_o great_a benefit_n and_o more_o ample_a commodity_n be_v hynder_v and_o as_o we_o see_v it_o fall_v out_o lest_o man_n mind_n be_v withdraw_v from_o the_o gospel_n i_o will_v not_o here_o say_v that_o they_o which_o stand_v to_o the_o defence_n of_o this_o matter_n may_v pretend_v some_o honest_a and_o just_a signification_n of_o the_o apparel_n and_o that_o not_o dissent_v from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v this_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n as_o the_o prophet_n malachy_n witness_v be_v angel_n and_o god_n messenger_n but_o angel_n for_o the_o most_o part_n appear_v be_v clothe_v in_o white_a garment_n i_o pray_v you_o how_o shall_v we_o debar_v the_o church_n of_o this_o liberty_n that_o it_o can_v not_o signify_v some_o good_a thing_n in_o set_v forth_o their_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n especial_o be_v so_o do_v that_o no_o manner_n of_o god_n honour_n be_v attribute_v unto_o

peradventure_o every_o man_n will_v not_o grant_v it_o first_o the_o adversary_n may_v answer_v that_o this_o shall_v not_o follow_v if_o such_o apparel_n be_v appoint_v that_o have_v no_o
