and_o so_o will_v you_o to_o for_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o you_o yourself_o think_v the_o church_n better_o than_o the_o alehouse_n and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o be_v as_o needful_a for_o the_o soul_n as_o ale_n for_o the_o body_n and_o if_o they_o offer_v not_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n but_o give_v diligent_a ear_n and_o lay_v up_o that_o in_o memory_n which_o they_o hear_v shall_v afterward_o upon_o occasion_n speak_v of_o the_o same_o i_o hope_v that_o you_o for_o your_o part_n will_v not_o term_v they_o pratler_n nor_o hate_v they_o for_o it_o but_o rather_o commend_v they_o and_o love_v they_o prefer_v they_o before_o other_o that_o have_v that_o care_n to_o know_v god_n nor_o desire_v to_o hear_v his_o word_n alas_o i_o be_o sorry_a to_o hear_v you_o say_v that_o you_o care_v for_o none_o that_o follow_v and_o favour_n your_o minister_n you_o shall_v all_o favour_v he_o and_o follow_v his_o doctrine_n yea_o and_o he_o also_o wherein_o he_o follow_v christ_n you_o shall_v be_v his_o fellow-helper_n and_o gather_v with_o he_o and_o not_o scatter_v abroad_o nor_o hinder_v the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o hand_n you_o rich_a man_n shall_v countenance_v he_o all_o that_o you_o can_v that_o thereby_o all_o sort_n and_o even_o the_o worst_a people_n may_v be_v move_v to_o reverence_v he_o which_o in_o the_o contempt_n of_o he_o contemn_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o god_n himself_o who_o messenger_n he_o be_v they_o shall_v cover_v his_o fault_n and_o infirmity_n that_o by_o such_o thing_n the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v not_o evil_o speak_v of_o among_o they_o that_o seek_v such_o occasion_n they_o shall_v help_v and_o relieve_v his_o want_n as_o all_o true_a christian_n ever_o have_v do_v that_o poverty_n hinder_v not_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n and_o so_o your_o soul_n be_v starve_v and_o famish_v to_o death_n through_o the_o pine_a of_o his_o body_n you_o will_v meet_v your_o ox_n and_o keep_v your_o horse_n well_o that_o they_o may_v be_v strong_a to_o labour_v else_o your_o business_n will_v lie_v undo_v ought_v you_o not_o then_o much_o more_o to_o maintain_v your_o minister_n that_o your_o soul_n may_v be_v fill_v and_o satisfy_v with_o good_a will_v you_o withdraw_v meat_n from_o your_o beast_n that_o they_o may_v not_o work_v and_o yet_o will_v have_v your_o work_n do_v sure_o you_o will_v think_v he_o hardly_o well_o in_o his_o wit_n that_o will_v do_v so_o even_o so_o will_v you_o sacrilegious_o withdraw_v your_o minister_n maintenance_n that_o he_o may_v not_o preach_v and_o yet_o will_v be_v save_v this_o be_v spiritual_a madness_n and_o dead_a drunkenness_n alas_o for_o you_o i_o pity_v your_o case_n i_o perceive_v how_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n satan_n and_o mammon_n have_v blind_v the_o eye_n of_o some_o of_o your_o rich_a man_n and_o have_v prevail_v so_o much_o with_o they_o as_o he_o have_v bring_v they_o to_o be_v rank_n pharisees_n as_o ill_a and_o worse_o than_o they_o that_o persecute_v christ_n some_o few_o of_o they_o it_o shall_v seem_v be_v fat_a at_o the_o heart_n and_o full_a in_o the_o purse_n be_v prick_v with_o pride_n and_o vainglory_n whereby_o they_o seek_v to_o over_o power_n all_o the_o mean_a sort_n to_o prey_v upon_o they_o at_o their_o command_n both_o to_o say_v and_o do_v not_o what_o truth_n and_o right_n be_v but_o what_o they_o will_v have_v if_o any_o submit_v themselves_o and_o yield_v to_o they_o in_o all_o thing_n magnify_v and_o praise_v they_o he_o they_o will_v countenance_v and_o favour_n and_o chief_o give_v he_o fair_a word_n but_o all_o account_n in_o the_o end_n be_v cast_v he_o shall_v find_v himself_o nothing_o help_v or_o better_v by_o they_o unless_o it_o be_v of_o other_o man_n cost_n but_o if_o any_o dislike_v their_o do_n and_o across_o they_o sometime_o yea_o when_o he_o can_v do_v no_o other_o unless_o he_o will_v burden_n his_o conscience_n he_o they_o will_v be_v revenge_v of_o disgrace_v he_o and_o watch_v opportunity_n to_o thwart_v he_o and_o as_o i_o may_v say_v to_o worry_v he_o if_o they_o can_v and_o by_o those_o mean_n have_v they_o bring_v and_o seek_v to_o bring_v all_o man_n into_o their_o subjection_n whereout_o they_o suck_v no_o small_a advantage_n now_o these_o man_n can_v abide_v your_o minister_n for_o his_o plain_a deal_n with_o they_o yea_o like_a envious_a rival_n they_o can_v abide_v that_o any_o respect_n or_o reverence_n shall_v be_v have_v or_o give_v to_o he_o for_o they_o think_v it_o great_a disgrace_n to_o they_o that_o any_o man_n shall_v be_v prefer_v before_o they_o in_o any_o thing_n in_o your_o parish_n yea_o they_o make_v account_n of_o your_o minister_n but_o as_o of_o a_o bodily_a servant_n for_o outward_a church_n duty_n according_a to_o law_n and_o that_o therefore_o they_o pay_v his_o tithe_n as_o his_o wage_n they_o will_v not_o have_v he_o to_o meddle_v or_o make_v with_o townes-matter_n which_o be_v sway_v
