servant_n speak_v reason_n and_o though_o he_o be_v not_o the_o wise_a yet_o he_o be_v the_o love_a servant_n that_o will_v venture_v to_o speak_v to_o his_o master_n in_o such_o a_o case_n god_n

thereunto_o and_o if_o your_o majesty_n do_v but_o vouchsafe_v so_o much_o patience_n as_o to_o give_v equal_a hear_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o you_o shall_v receive_v such_o satisfaction_n as_o will_v give_v you_o great_a quiet_a and_o contentment_n and_o disquiet_v none_o of_o your_o subject_n but_o those_o only_a that_o do_v for_o their_o advantage_n misinform_v your_o majesty_n and_o mislead_v your_o people_n and_o if_o your_o majesty_n have_v no_o such_o use_n of_o the_o schism_n as_o king_n henry_n the_o eight_o and_o queen_n elizabeth_n have_v and_o that_o it_o do_v neither_o increase_n your_o authority_n nor_o your_o wealth_n nor_o your_o honour_n but_o rather_o hinder_v they_o all_o and_o deprive_v you_o of_o that_o blessing_n which_o otherwise_o you_o may_v expect_v from_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n from_o your_o catholic_a neighbour_n prince_n and_o subject_n and_o from_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n in_o who_o communion_n be_v the_o great_a comfort_n of_o every_o christian_a both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n than_o whatsoever_o some_o great_a statesman_n may_v say_v to_o the_o contrary_a i_o do_v very_o believe_v they_o do_v but_o speak_v for_o themselves_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o true_a reason_n that_o may_v concern_v your_o majesty_n to_o hinder_v you_o from_o admit_v a_o toleration_n of_o catholic_n and_o catholic_a religion_n that_o those_o who_o can_v command_v their_o understanding_n to_o think_v otherwise_o may_v find_v the_o comfort_n they_o do_v with_o so_o great_a zeal_n pursue_v in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n among_o who_o i_o confess_v myself_o to_o be_v one_o that_o will_v think_v myself_o the_o happy_a man_n in_o the_o world_n if_o i_o may_v understand_v that_o your_o majesty_n be_v content_a that_o i_o shall_v be_v so_o 38_o but_o although_o your_o majesty_n sit_v at_o the_o stern_a and_o command_v all_o yet_o you_o be_v carry_v in_o the_o same_o ship_n and_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o wield_v so_o great_a a_o vessel_n against_o wind_n and_o tide_n and_o therefore_o although_o it_o do_v not_o concern_v your_o majesty_n in_o your_o own_o estate_n yet_o if_o your_o lord_n and_o your_o commons_o and_o your_o clergy_n do_v reap_v any_o great_a benefit_n by_o the_o schism_n it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a for_o your_o majesty_n to_o effect_v unity_n but_o if_o upon_o due_a examination_n there_o be_v no_o such_o matter_n than_o it_o be_v but_o the_o cry_n of_o the_o passenger_n who_o for_o want_v of_o experience_n be_v afraid_a where_o there_o be_v no_o danger_n and_o that_o can_v be_v no_o hindrance_n to_o any_o course_n your_o majesty_n shall_v think_v to_o be_v best_a for_o the_o attain_n of_o the_o haven_n 39_o for_o my_o own_o part_n for_o the_o discharge_n of_o my_o duty_n and_o conscience_n i_o have_v consider_v of_o all_o their_o state_n and_o can_v resolve_v myself_o that_o i_o have_v not_o prejudice_v the_o state_n of_o any_o good_a subject_n of_o you_o but_o my_o own_o in_o come_v to_o the_o catholic_a church_n and_o first_o for_o your_o lord_n and_o noble_n it_o be_v true_a that_o many_o of_o their_o ancestor_n be_v allow_v a_o very_a good_a share_n in_o the_o division_n of_o the_o church_n when_o the_o schism_n begin_v and_o therefore_o it_o concern_v they_o in_o reason_n of_o their_o state_n to_o maintain_v the_o doctrine_n of_o division_n but_o i_o think_v there_o be_v very_o few_o in_o england_n either_o lord_n or_o other_o now_o possess_v of_o abbey_n land_n which_o have_v not_o pay_v well_o for_o they_o and_o may_v not_o aswell_o possess_v they_o in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n as_o in_o the_o schism_n and_o there_o be_v a_o declaration_n make_v by_o the_o pope_n to_o that_o purpose_n in_o queen_n mary_n day_n so_o that_o there_o be_v now_o no_o need_n at_o all_o to_o preach_v against_o the_o merit_n of_o good_a work_n nor_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrament_n nor_o the_o invocation_n of_o saint_n nor_o the_o rest_n of_o popery_n that_o build_v church_n unless_o it_o be_v to_o help_v the_o hugonot_n of_o france_n to_o pull_v they_o down_o 40_o but_o perhaps_o the_o commons_o of_o england_n do_v gain_v so_o much_o by_o the_o schism_n as_o they_o can_v abide_v to_o hear_v of_o unity_n indeed_o when_o the_o puritan_n preacher_n have_v call_v his_o flock_n about_o he_o and_o describe_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v so_o ignorant_a so_o idolatrous_a and_o so_o wicked_a as_o he_o have_v make_v himself_o believe_v she_o be_v then_o be_v he_o wont_n to_o congratulat_v his_o poor_a deceive_v audience_n that_o they_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o such_o good_a man_n as_o himself_o be_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o darkness_n and_o idolatry_n and_o wickedness_n of_o popery_n and_o there_o be_v no_o man_n dare_v say_v a_o word_n or_o once_o mutter_v to_o the_o contrary_n but_o the_o people_n have_v hear_v these_o lie_v so_o long_o as_o most_o of_o they_o begin_v to_o be_v weary_a and_o the_o wise_a of_o they_o can_v but_o wonder_n how_o these_o puritan_n preacher_n shall_v become_v more_o learned_a and_o more_o honest_a than_o all_o the_o rest_n that_o live_v in_o ancient_a time_n or_o that_o live_v still_o in_o catholic_a country_n or_o then_o those_o in_o england_n who_o th●se_a man_n be_v wont_a to_o condemn_v for_o papist_n nevertheless_o i_o confess_v there_o be_v many_o honest_a man_n and_o woman_n among_o they_o that_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o prejudice_n &_o pretext_n of_o scripture_n do_v follow_v these_o preacher_n more_o of_o zeal_n and_o devotion_n to_o the_o truth_n as_o myself_o do_v until_o i_o know_v it_o be_v but_o counterfeit_n and_o these_o good_a people_n if_o they_o may_v be_v so_o happy_a as_o to_o hear_v catholic_n answer_v for_o themselves_o and_o tell_v they_o the_o truth_n will_v be_v the_o most_o devout_a catholic_n of_o all_o other_o but_o the_o most_o of_o the_o people_n be_v never_o lead_v by_o sermon_n if_o they_o be_v the_o catholic_a church_n be_v both_o able_a and_o willing_a to_o supply_v they_o far_o better_a than_o the_o schism_n but_o it_o be_v a_o opinion_n of_o wealth_n and_o liberty_n which_o make_v they_o break_v at_o the_o first_o and_o if_o they_o do_v due_o consider_v of_o it_o they_o be_v never_o the_o better_a for_o either_o of_o both_o but_o much_o the_o worse_o 41_o for_o wealth_n the_o puritan_n unthrift_n that_o look_v for_o the_o overthrow_n of_o bishop_n and_o church_n cathedral_n hope_v to_o have_v his_o share_n in_o they_o if_o rhey_n will_v fall_v once_o and_o therefore_o he_o can_v choose_v but_o desire_v to_o increase_v the_o schism_n that_o he_o may_v gain_v by_o it_o but_o the_o honest_a protestant_n that_o can_v endure_v the_o state_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o it_o be_v can_v be_v content_a it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v for_o he_o shall_v receive_v more_o benefit_n by_o it_o every_o way_n the_o poor_a gentleman_n and_o yeoman_n that_o be_v burden_a with_o
