learning_n have_v hear_v of_o such_o man_n as_o king_n pippin_n and_o his_o son_n charles_n the_o great_a and_o that_o they_o lay_v aside_o the_o french_a service_n and_o establish_v the_o roman_a in_o its_o place_n and_o that_o by_o such_o law_n as_o pass_v in_o those_o time_n and_o charles_n in_o his_o constitution_n de_fw-fr emendatione_fw-la librorum_fw-la ecclesiasticorum_fw-la express_o

grain_n of_o the_o church_n which_o can_v not_o part_v with_o its_o old_a office_n without_o tear_n therefore_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n that_o there_o be_v thing_n in_o their_o nature_n alterable_a i_o will_v desire_v this_o gentleman_n to_o alter_v these_o passage_n if_o he_o think_v fit_a in_o the_o next_o edition_n of_o his_o letter_n now_o that_o you_o may_v not_o think_v that_o we_o shake_v hand_n here_o at_o set_v out_o in_o order_n to_o part_v present_o i_o do_v willing_o agree_v with_o the_o same_o author_n p._n 1._o ●_o that_o nothing_o be_v more_o dangerous_a to_o religion_n than_o frequent_o to_o make_v alteration_n in_o thing_n pertain_v thereto_o nay_o though_o it_o be_v in_o outward_a circumstantial_o only_a that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n may_v be_v justify_v in_o her_o proceed_n hitherto_o that_o she_o have_v not_o be_v forward_o on_o every_o demand_n of_o the_o dissenter_n to_o unhinge_v those_o of_o her_o communion_n from_o she_o long_o receive_v establishment_n but_o have_v to_o the_o utmost_a resist_v all_o alteration_n from_o they_o hope_v by_o less_o dangerous_a method_n to_o cure_v etc._n etc._n when_o i_o meet_v with_o so_o many_o passage_n in_o these_o letter_n reflect_v with_o great_a sharpness_n upon_o our_o service_n and_o present_a constitution_n i_o begin_v to_o be_v afraid_a that_o we_o may_v have_v be_v in_o the_o wrong_n ever_o since_o edward_n the_o 6_o day_n but_o i_o take_v courage_n when_o i_o find_v that_o hitherto_o all_o have_v be_v well_o and_o provide_v we_o yield_v ourselves_o tractable_a upon_o this_o occasion_n all_o our_o past_a proceed_n and_o stifness_n against_o dissenter_n may_v be_v justify_v it_o be_v well_o for_o the_o church_n that_o she_o need_v not_o apprehend_v any_o retrospect_n into_o her_o behaviour_n since_o as_o time_n go_v with_o churchmanship_n it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v no_o common_a favour_n but_o good_a sir_n how_o can_v this_o liberality_n consist_v with_o those_o reflection_n you_o make_v upon_o the_o past_a conduct_n of_o the_o church_n how_o can_v it_o consist_v with_o your_o censure_n of_o that_o unreasonable_a rigour_n whereby_o we_o have_v hitherto_o maintain_v they_o p._n 5._o or_o with_o this_o kind_a expostulation_n have_v we_o not_o already_o lose_v our_o reputation_n with_o the_o people_n of_o the_o land_n by_o insist_v too_o rigorous_o on_o those_o thing_n how_o can_v it_o agree_v with_o the_o frightful_a representation_n you_o be_v please_v to_o give_v of_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o liturgy_n p._n 15._o for_o if_o i_o be_v force_v to_o read_v such_o ridiculous_a thing_n to_o our_o people_n instead_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n if_o by_o read_v the_o old_a translation_n of_o the_o psalm_n we_o impose_v that_o on_o our_o people_n for_o true_a scripture_n which_o in_o so_o great_a a_o number_n of_o place_n quite_o differ_v from_o it_o and_o if_o there_o be_v many_o grievance_n and_o defect_n of_o this_o nature_n which_o he_o can_v tell_v we_o of_o to_o which_o we_o be_v bind_v if_o all_o this_o be_v in_o earnest_n i_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o i_o can_v see_v how_o we_o may_v be_v justify_v for_o the_o time_n past_a for_o be_v these_o ridiculous_a thing_n less_o ridiculous_a or_o these_o read_n psalm_n less_o differ_v from_o true_a scripture_n a_o hundred_o year_n ago_o be_v it_o allowable_a to_o retain_v most_o religious_a and_o gracious_a king_n in_o the_o last_o reign_v and_o be_v it_o now_o grow_v a_o flattery_n not_o to_o be_v warrant_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v now_o such_o grievance_n and_o defect_n be_v they_o of_o another_o nature_n in_o the_o day_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n in_o short_a the_o liturgy_n and_o constitution_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v they_o grow_v worse_o and_o more_o intolerable_a now_o than_o when_o these_o gentleman_n think_v fit_a to_o declare_v their_o assent_n and_o consent_v to_o they_o yet_o both_o give_v the_o church_n and_o liturgy_n very_o good_a word_n a_o church_n say_v one_o which_o i_o be_o certain_a of_o in_o respect_n of_o its_o doctrine_n worship_n and_o order_n be_v inferior_a to_o none_o upon_o upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n p._n 1._o as_o to_o the_o liturgy_n of_o our_o church_n say_v the_o other_o i_o free_o acknowledge_v and_o i_o think_v no_o man_n can_v contradict_v i_o herein_o that_o it_o be_v the_o best_a which_o be_v ever_o yet_o use_v in_o any_o christian_a church_n p._n 12._o now_o if_o this_o liturgy_n so_o faulty_a so_o ridiculous_a so_o wicked_a as_o to_o impose_v false_a scripture_n upon_o the_o people_n be_v yet_o the_o best_a of_o any_o and_o if_o this_o church_n with_o all_o the_o fault_n here_o represent_v so_o unwary_a as_o to_o turn_v the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n into_o a_o sacrament_n be_v inferior_a to_o none_o god_n help_v the_o rest_n i_o say_v i_o be_o afraid_a that_o i_o shall_v be_v tempt_v to_o have_v a_o very_a sorry_a opinion_n of_o church_n and_o liturgy_n if_o i_o have_v not_o some_o hope_n that_o our_o author_n may_v be_v mistake_v in_o many_o of_o those_o thing_n they_o expose_v for_o the_o defect_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o i_o must_v confess_v that_o i_o can_v see_v how_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o reconcile_v the_o compliment_n with_o the_o reproach_n weigelius_n indeed_o pretend_v that_o in_o the_o school_n of_o grace_n contradictory_n may_v be_v reconcile_v and_o unite_v by_o the_o mind_n but_o the_o matter_n be_v pass_v my_o skill_n all_o the_o service_n i_o can_v do_v he_o be_v to_o refer_v he_o to_o that_o mystical_a divine_a i_o once_o think_v these_o alteration_n so_o much_o talk_v of_o be_v intend_v by_o way_n of_o condescension_n and_o favour_n but_o when_o i_o find_v these_o advocate_n for_o the_o project_n lick_v up_o the_o venom_n of_o the_o dissenter_n and_o spit_v it_o in_o the_o face_n of_o their_o own_o church_n when_o they_o try_v to_o give_v new_a strength_n to_o old_a weak_a objection_n and_o affect_v new_a quarrel_n and_o cavil_n against_o the_o liturgy_n there_o be_v too_o great_a reason_n to_o be_v jealous_a that_o they_o do_v not_o intend_v to_o mediate_v a_o accommodation_n but_o to_o procure_v a_o conquest_n for_o the_o dissenter_n many_o therefore_o that_o seem_v not_o averse_a to_o make_v some_o concession_n provide_v it_o may_v have_v be_v to_o any_o good_a effect_n be_v extreme_o discourage_v by_o the_o method_n which_o these_o undertaker_n take_v to_o persuade_v they_o for_o if_o this_o new_a pretend_a reformation_n can_v be_v introduce_v but_o upon_o the_o disparagement_n and_o condemnation_n of_o the_o old_a if_o it_o must_v reflect_v blemish_n and_o infamy_n upon_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o precede_a generation_n of_o our_o church_n if_o it_o must_v through_o contempt_n and_o ignominy_n upon_o so_o many_o excellent_a person_n who_o have_v not_o only_o consent_v to_o this_o constitution_n but_o defend_v and_o justify_v it_o against_o the_o frivolous_a exception_n of_o dissenter_n if_o this_o be_v the_o case_n you_o must_v pardon_v i_o if_o i_o have_v not_o now_o that_o inclination_n to_o alteration_n which_o i_o own_v myself_o to_o have_v have_v heretofore_o neither_o will_v i_o be_v think_v so_o punctilious_a as_o to_o prefer_v a_o point_n of_o honour_n to_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n if_o it_o be_v so_o necessary_a to_o make_v these_o change_n if_o it_o will_v unite_v all_o protestant_n and_o create_v a_o universal_a concord_n i_o be_o content_a to_o discharge_v all_o these_o circumstantial_o and_o bid_v they_o stand_v out_o of_o the_o way_n of_o such_o mighty_a blessing_n that_o so_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a person_n positive_o affirm_v to_o a_o friend_n p._n 2._o i_o think_v now_o to_o make_v
