the_o church_n of_o rome_n may_v be_v decide_v by_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n for_o the_o first_o five_o hundred_o year_n after_o christ_n for_o that_o have_v be_v my_o design_n in_o all_o my_o write_n 9_o if_o i_o have_v not_o believe_v upon_o sufficient_a evidence_n that_o the_o succession_n of_o bishop_n in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n have_v be_v legal_o derive_v from_o the_o apostle_n i_o have_v never_o enter_v into_o that_o high_a call_n much_o less_o continue_v in_o it_o thus_o long_o and_o therefore_o i_o must_v here_o express_o vindicate_v myself_o from_o a_o most_o notorious_a untruth_n which_o be_v cast_v upon_o i_o by_o a_o late_a romish_a writer_n that_o i_o shall_v public_o in_o the_o house_n of_o peer_n the_o beginning_n of_o the_o last_o parliament_n assent_n to_o that_o abominable_a fiction_n which_o some_o romanist_n have_v devise_v concern_v the_o consecrate_v matthew_n parker_n at_o the_o nagshead_n tavern_n to_o be_v archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n for_o i_o do_v here_o solemn_o profess_v i_o have_v always_o believe_v that_o fable_n to_o proceed_v from_o the_o father_n of_o lie_n as_o the_o public_a record_n still_o extant_a do_v evident_o testify_v nor_o do_v i_o remember_v that_o ever_o i_o hear_v it_o mention_v in_o that_o or_o any_o other_o parliament_n that_o ever_o i_o sit_v in_o 10._o as_o for_o our_o brethren_n the_o protestant_n of_o foreign_a reform_a church_n the_o most_o learned_a and_o judicious_a of_o themselves_o have_v bewail_v their_o misery_n for_o want_v of_o bishop_n and_o therefore_o god_n forbid_v i_o shall_v be_v so_o uncharitable_a as_o to_o censure_v they_o for_o no-churche_n for_o that_o which_o be_v their_o infelicity_n not_o their_o fault_n but_o as_o for_o our_o perverse_a protestant_n at_o home_n i_o can_v say_v the_o same_o of_o they_o see_v they_o impious_o reject_v that_o which_o the_o other_o pious_o desire_n and_o therefore_o i_o can_v flatter_v those_o in_o this_o church_n who_o have_v receive_v their_o ordination_n only_o from_o mere_a presbyter_n euagr._fw-la so_o far_o as_o to_o think_v they_o lawful_o ordain_v s._n hierom_n himself_o reserve_v to_o the_o bishop_n the_o power_n of_o ordination_n 11._o see_v therefore_o i_o have_v be_v as_o i_o hear_v so_o far_o misunderstand_v by_o some_o among_o we_o as_o to_o be_v think_v to_o approve_v of_o their_o ordination_n by_o mere_a presbyter_n because_o i_o once_o say_v it_o may_v be_v vallid_a in_o case_n of_o necessity_n i_o do_v here_o profess_v my_o meaning_n to_o be_v that_o i_o never_o think_v there_o be_v any_o such_o necessity_n in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o to_o warrant_v it_o where_o bless_a be_v god_n for_o it_o there_o be_v so_o many_o bishop_n still_o survive_v and_o therefore_o i_o desire_n they_o not_o to_o mistake_v my_o meaning_n in_o that_o say_n 12._o wheresoever_o there_o be_v a_o form_a church_n there_o must_v of_o necssity_n be_v some_o set_a form_n of_o god_n worship_n otherwise_o it_o will_v quick_o fall_v in_o piece_n as_o woeful_a experience_n have_v teach_v we_o and_o of_o all_o form_n of_o god_n worship_n in_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o christ_n none_o in_o my_o judgement_n do_v ever_o exceed_v the_o leiturgy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n both_o for_o decency_n edification_n and_o devotion_n in_o all_o the_o several_a office_n of_o it_o if_o the_o assembler_n themselves_o that_o first_o lay_v it_o aside_o can_v have_v find_v any_o fault_n in_o it_o their_o modesty_n be_v not_o so_o great_a if_o we_o may_v judge_v of_o it_o by_o their_o other_o action_n as_o to_o have_v conceal_v they_o from_o the_o world_n 13._o have_v thus_o far_o prevent_v the_o uncharitableness_n of_o other_o against_o myself_o i_o do_v here_o from_o my_o heart_n protest_v my_o unfeigned_a charity_n to_o all_o the_o world_n and_o more_o particular_o both_o towards_o those_o papist_n and_o perverse_a protestant_n who_o i_o have_v so_o much_o endeavour_v to_o undeceive_v both_o by_o my_o sermon_n conference_n and_o write_n it_o be_v only_o their_o error_n whereat_o i_o be_v offend_v i_o have_v always_o love_v and_o pity_v

they_o must_v not_o supersede_n my_o more_o particular_a love_n and_o obligation_n which_o i_o have_v to_o those_o true_o humble_a and_o meek_a soul_n in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o more_o especial_o in_o my_o own_o diocese_n of_o duresme_fw-fr who_o still_o stand_v firm_a upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o a_o sound_a faith_n and_o continue_v obedient_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n
