from_o it_o to_o utter_v they_o and_o to_o read_v they_o upon_o a_o book_n be_v all_o one_o i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n and_o though_o i_o approve_v not_o of_o the_o former_a yet_o be_v the_o

book-praying_a there_o be_v no_o use_n of_o that_o or_o any_o other_o gift_n second_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o because_o the_o lord_n jesus_n may_v impose_v a_o set_a form_n of_o word_n to_o be_v use_v for_o prayer_n that_o therefore_o the_o lord_n bb_v of_o england_n may_v impose_v a_o other_o set_v form_n so_o to_o be_v use_v the_o consequence_n be_v notable_o both_o erroneous_a and_o presumptuous_a so_o bold_a indeed_o be_v they_o and_o so_o high_a do_v they_o advance_v themselves_o in_o their_o ordinance_n and_o imposition_n because_o the_o lord_n have_v separate_v one_o day_n from_o the_o rest_n and_o make_v it_o holy_a therefore_o they_o will_v also_o make_v other_o holy_a day_n because_o christ_n have_v set_v down_o canon_n and_o constitution_n for_o the_o government_n of_o his_o church_n therefore_o they_o also_o will_v have_v their_o canon_n and_o constitution_n because_o he_o have_v appoint_v a_o form_n of_o administer_a the_o sacrament_n therefore_o they_o may_v

have_v pronounce_v once_o for_o all_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o ordinance_n and_o thus_o they_o will_v ●_o set_v their_o threshold_n by_o the_o lord_n threshoulde_n and_o their_o

and_o arch_a bishop_n of_o the_o church_n and_o spiritual_a lord_n over_o god_n heritage_n to_o these_o thing_n i_o will_v add_v a_o few_o reason_n against_o this_o read_v stint_v service_n and_o so_o conclude_v both_o the_o matter_n and_o the_o book_n and_o first_o it_o can_v be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n because_o the_o church_n i._o may_v perfect_o and_o entyre_o worship_n god_n without_o it_o with_o all_o the_o part_n of_o holy_a and_o spiritual_a worship_n as_o do_v the_o apostolic_a church_n for_o many_o year_n before_o any_o such_o leiturgy_n be_v devise_v &_o impose_v and_o as_o do_v many_o church_n now_o and_o as_o appear_v by_o that_o which_o be_v do_v before_o &_o after_o sermon_n where_o no_o such_o stint_n be_v read_v of_o what_o may_v be_v do_v at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o all_o place_n where_o able_a &_o lawful_a minister_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v ii_o as_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o public_a prayer_n of_o the_o church_n be_v a_o principal_a duty_n of_o the_o minister_n for_o which_o a_o special_a gift_n and_o 4_o qualification_n be_v require_v so_o can_v the_o read_n of_o a_o service_n book_n be_v that_o administration_n because_o no_o special_a or_o ministerial_a gift_n be_v require_v for_o it_o iii_o the_o two_o foot_n upon_o which_o the_o dumb_a ministry_n stand_v like_o naebuchad-nezzars_a image_n upon_o the_o foot_n of_o iron_n
