substance_n more_o than_o ceremony_n little_o do_v our_o saviour_n intend_v that_o say_n against_o the_o surplice_n but_o to_o follow_v this_o author_n in_o his_o airy_a race_n what_o if_o the_o body_n that_o be_v the_o substance_n be_v more_o than_o raiment_n that_o be_v than_o the_o ceremony_n yet_o the_o ceremony_n be_v not_o nothing_o and_o if_o he_o take_v away_o all_o the_o raiment_n with_o his_o naked_a truth_n he_o will_v leave_v it_o such_o a_o naked_a church_n without_o either_o ornament_n or_o cover_v that_o it_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o hold_v out_o against_o the_o storm_n with_o which_o he_o thunder_v and_o threaten_v we_o to_o his_o next_o fine_a mock_n at_o our_o ceremony_n as_o if_o they_o be_v novelty_n and_o say_v that_o in_o those_o great_a storm_n when_o the_o whole_a world_n of_o jew_n and_o gentile_n be_v enemy_n to_o the_o church_n there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o our_o ceremony_n to_o preserve_v it_o first_o i_o demand_v be_v it_o reason_v the_o

of_o almost_o every_o mile_n as_o then_o when_o there_o be_v hardly_o one_o in_o twenty_o mile_n now_o when_o the_o sovereign_a power_n of_o the_o world_n spread_v their_o wing_n to_o cover_v and_o protect_v she_o as_o then_o when_o they_o stretch_v out_o their_o arm_n to_o vex_v she_o now_o when_o king_n and_o queen_n her_o nursing-fathers_n and_o nursing-mothers_n bid_v she_o quit_v her_o

great_a a_o enemy_n to_o it_o for_o he_o confess_v he_o be_v so_o because_o such_o dirty_a nasty_a surplice_n as_o most_o of_o they_o wear_v and_o especial_o the_o singer_n in_o cathedral_n where_o they_o shall_v be_v most_o decent_a be_v rather_o a_o intimation_n of_o their_o dirty_a life_n and_o have_v give_v his_o stomach_n such_o a_o surfeit_n of_o they_o as_o he_o have_v almost_o a_o averseness_n to_o all_o this_o be_v a_o strong_a line_n and_o a_o weak_a argument_n such_o another_o weighty_a exception_n to_o the_o surplice_n as_o be_v make_v by_o the_o merry_a country_n parson_n who_o call_v it_o a_o rag_n of_o popery_n and_o when_o he_o be_v cite_v for_o it_o into_o the_o spiritual_a court_n he_o make_v it_o appear_v by_o the_o parish-book_n of_o account_n that_o their_o surplice_n be_v buy_v in_o queen_n mary_n be_v day_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v true_o a_o rag_n of_o popery_n be_v wear_v all_o to_o piece_n but_o if_o the_o parish_n will_v provide_v he_o a_o new_a one_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o put_v it_o on_o the_o next_o sunday_n the_o honest_a man_n be_v dismiss_v with_o his_o jest_n but_o alas_o our_o author_n be_v in_o earnest_n though_o a_o laundress_n may_v answer_v this_o as_o easy_o as_o a_o sempstress_n may_v answer_v the_o other_o argument_n mean_a time_n we_o can_v only_o be_v sorry_a that_o he_o be_v so_o squeamish_a and_o that_o his_o sick_a fancy_n shall_v be_v so_o much_o too_o hard_a for_o his_o judgement_n for_o in_o the_o forego_n sentence_n he_o in_o his_o own_o judgement_n much_o approve_v a_o pure_a white_a robe_n on_o the_o minister_n shoulder_n to_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n what_o purity_n become_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o much_o approve_v it_o yet_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o six_o line_n he_o have_v almost_o a_o averseness_n to_o all_o of_o it_o but_o we_o must_v not_o change_v whatsoever_o be_v ancient_a and_o decent_a in_o our_o church_n as_o often_o as_o any_o one_o whoever_o he_o be_v please_v to_o change_v his_o note_n and_o to_o acquaint_v we_o in_o the_o same_o breath_n with_o his_o admirable_a sympathy_n and_o antipathy_n to_o the_o same_o thing_n his_o lay_v this_o ugly_a charge_n to_o most_o of_o we_o that_o we_o wear_v such_o dirty_a nasty_a surplice_n be_v to_o fling_v dirt_n enough_o that_o some_o may_v stick_v as_o for_o the_o singing-man_n in_o cathedral_n if_o they_o be_v so_o much_o to_o blame_v as_o he_o suppose_v they_o be_v either_o for_o their_o dirty_a surplice_n or_o as_o he_o intimate_v for_o their_o dirty_a life_n yet_o order_n may_v be_v easy_o take_v that_o neither_o of_o these_o to_o follow_v his_o noble_a metaphor_n shall_v escape_v a_o scour_a without_o take_v quite_o away_o either_o the_o surplice_n or_o the_o singing-man_n out_o of_o our_o cathedral_n but_o if_o he_o follow_v the_o grain_n of_o this_o old_a threadbare_a fallacy_n from_o the_o abuse_n against_o the_o use_n of_o any_o thing_n whither_o will_v it_o carry_v he_o the_o surplice_n in_o cathedral_n be_v common_o foul_a therefore_o let_v they_o be_v take_v away_o for_o ever_o so_o the_o cathedral_n themselves_o sometime_o be_v none_o of_o the_o clean_a therefore_o instead_o of_o sweep_v they_o let_v they_o be_v pull_v down_o and_o take_v away_o too_o his_o next_o effort_n be_v against_o bow_v towards_o the_o altar_n which_o in_o his_o own_o judgement_n he_o allow_v and_o practice_n in_o some_o measure_n then_o i_o hope_v the_o thing_n itself_o be_v not_o unlawful_a no_o but_o true_o many_o of_o our_o church_n man_n give_v great_a suspicion_n to_o the_o people_n that_o they_o also_o believe_v as_o the_o papist_n christ_n corporal_o present_v there_o if_o we_o give_v this_o great_a suspicion_n we_o give_v great_a scandal_n which_o be_v a_o great_a

say_v he_o the_o minister_n or_o the_o reader_n do_v not_o only_a how_o once_o at_o his_o enter_v into_o the_o church_n but_o bow_v again_o as_o he_o have_v occasion_n to_o pass_v and_o repass_v by_o the_o altar_n surely_n say_v he_o speak_v the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o vulgar_a in_o reverence_n to_o the_o king_n of_o king_n he_o suppose_v there_o sit_v what!_o even_o at_o those_o time_n when_o
