mine_n which_o i_o conceive_v be_v most_o fit_v at_o this_o present_a to_o raise_v against_o the_o aforenamed_a confederate_a projector_n against_o great_a britain_n the_o first_o a_o well_o manage_v commission_n the_o second_o be_v a_o well_o constitute_v and_o order_v church-assemble_o the_o three_o be_v a_o right_a frame_n of_o ecclesiastical_a government_n first_o a_o well_o manage_v commission_n i_o understand_v by_o that_o first_o commissioner_n choose_v by_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o approve_v by_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n which_o shall_v be_v no_o party_n nor_o delinquent_n as_o far_a as_o can_v be_v discern_v these_o choose_v out_o of_o every_o shire_n or_o diocese_n if_o the_o shire_n be_v barren_a of_o able_a and_o sufficient_a man_n then_o to_o appoint_v stranger_n rather_o then_o delinquent_n and_o those_o qualify_v with_o integrity_n wisdom_n and_o resolution_n second_o when_o the_o commissioner_n be_v thus_o choose_v for_o both_o the_o house_n to_o move_v his_o majesty_n for_o sufficient_a authority_n for_o the_o manage_n of_o the_o say_a commission_n that_o the_o commissioner_n may_v be_v enable_v to_o give_v oath_n to_o call_v before_o they_o any_o party_n offend_v or_o other_o for_o witness_n as_o they_o shall_v see_v cause_n and_o to_o have_v as_o large_a power_n to_o punish_v contempt_n non_fw-la aparence_n or_o abuse_v of_o the_o commissioner_n as_o the_o archbishop_n visitor_n be_v wont_a to_o have_v in_o their_o metropolitical_a visitation_n three_o when_o the_o commissioner_n be_v thus_o choose_v and_o arm_v with_o authority_n then_o to_o have_v a_o book_n of_o article_n according_a to_o the_o tenor_n of_o what_o i_o shall_v propound_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o discourse_n and_o the_o say_a commissioner_n to_o have_v power_n to_o admonish_v to_o enjoin_v recantation_n and_o to_o deprive_v minister_n or_o else_o to_o return_v their_o name_n into_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o to_o be_v censure_v there_o and_o haply_o it_o may_v conduce_v well_o to_o the_o work_n to_o have_v a_o register_n allow_v to_o the_o commissioner_n for_o every_o shire_n or_o diocese_n and_o some_o small_a fee_n to_o be_v pay_v to_o the_o say_a commissioner_n towards_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o say_a commissioner_n and_o register_n by_o every_o delinquent_n as_o in_o like_a case_n have_v be_v allow_v in_o bishop_n visitation_n second_o a_o well_n constitute_v assembly_n or_o synod_n i_o mean_v a_o assembly_n of_o godly_a orthodox_n learned_a wise_a and_o well_o temper_v divine_n gather_v by_o the_o singular_a prudence_n and_o providence_n especial_o of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o which_o haply_o may_v be_v do_v most_o opportune_o when_o the_o commission_n
