a_o thousand_o will_v be_v unname_v when_o you_o have_v do_v your_o best_a at_o it_o but_o the_o rule_n must_v not_o name_v every_o error_n against_o it_o the_o contrariety_n will_v be_v discernible_a it_o be_v enough_o that_o man_n profess_v a_o perfect_a rule_n and_o renounce_v all_o contrary_a and_o be_v responsible_a to_o the_o church_n and_o their_o ruler_n when_o they_o corrupt_a religion_n

church_n must_v not_o make_v new_a law_n and_o test_n to_o make_v man_n confess_v it_o but_o punish_v it_o when_o it_o be_v vent_v l._n but_o shall_v minister_n make_v no_o profession_n but_o what_o

settle_a lecturer_n have_v the_o temple_n and_o tithe_n therefore_o i_o suppose_v that_o the_o bishop_n and_o patron_n will_v have_v their_o vote_n and_o i_o suppose_v you_o know_v that_o it_o be_v vain_a to_o motion_n to_o patron_n to_o resign_v this_o power_n be_v it_o worse_o than_o it_o be_v else_o advowsons_n will_v not_o be_v sell_v at_o such_o rate_n as_o they_o be_v by_o many_o patron_n and_o my_o silence_n where_o speak_a will_v do_v no_o good_a be_v no_o sign_n of_o my_o approbation_n l._n but_o do_v you_o think_v that_o the_o communicant_n shall_v have_v a_o negative_a vote_n in_o

man_n that_o be_v profess_o for_o god_n law_n and_o church-canon_n and_o custom_n shall_v not_o obstinate_o oppose_v they_o all_o yea_o the_o high_a episcopal_a man_n be_v in_o this_o against_o they_o mr._n thorndike_n say_v that_o till_o the_o clergy_n and_o people_n again_o choose_v their_o own_o bishop_n there_o need_v no_o other_o reason_n be_v give_v of_o the_o contempt_n of_o episcopacy_n yea_o i_o have_v prove_v past_o denial_n oft_o that_o no_o non-consenter_n can_v be_v a_o member_n of_o any_o pastoral_n church_n nor_o any_o man_n be_v a_o man_n pastor_n that_o do_v not_o consent_n it_o be_v reason_n then_o to_o speak_v for_o the_o flock_n consent_v vote_n l._n but_o they_o may_v be_v force_v to_o consent_v m._n i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o reason_n against_o that_o anon_o l._n do_v you_o think_v the_o ignorant_a vulgar_a be_v fit_a to_o choose_v themselves_o a_o pastor_n the_o most_o be_v usual_o the_o worst_a m._n if_o the_o churchman_n will_v make_v the_o uncapable_a rabble_n communicant_n and_o then_o deny_v they_o church-privilege_n because_o they_o be_v uncapable_a they_o condemn_v themselves_o for_o take_v yea_o force_n in_o such_o uncapable_a man_n even_o as_o the_o bishop_n that_o ordain_v minister_n that_o can_v preach_v and_o then_o by_o their_o canon_n forbid_v they_o to_o preach_v 2._o and_o yet_o i_o will_v say_v that_o never_o know_v any_o place_n in_o city_n or_o country_n that_o have_v oft_o have_v better_a pastor_n for_o learning_n and_o all_o worth_n than_o where_o the_o communicant_n be_v the_o chooser_n yea_o even_o the_o ignorant_a usual_o have_v a_o gust_n that_o discern_v and_o value_v good_a and_o able_a man_n 3._o and_o yet_o i_o speak_v not_o so_o high_a as_o for_o their_o power_n of_o first_o choice_n but_o only_o of_o consent_n nor_o yet_o to_o choose_v who_o shall_v be_v a_o minister_n but_o who_o shall_v be_v their_o pastor_n the_o bishop_n ask_v not_o their_o consent_n at_o ordination_n l._n but_o you_o know_v that_o if_o there_o must_v three_o consent_n go_v to_o it_o the_o ordainer_n the_o patron_n and_o the_o communicant_n they_o may_v never_o agree_v and_o frustrate_v all_o m._n humane_a faultiness_n put_v inconvenience_n into_o all_o action_n but_o we_o must_v not_o cure_v it_o with_o a_o worse_o if_o you_o will_v take_v no_o physic_n till_o three_o physician_n agree_v it_o be_v a_o less_o mischief_n than_o to_o give_v any_o man_n that_o can_v buy_v that_o power_n a_o right_a to_o impose_v what_o ignorant_a fellow_n or_o enemy_n he_o will_v to_o be_v your_o sole_a physician_n three_o lock_n and_o key_n in_o three_o hand_n to_o so_o great_a a_o trust_n may_v be_v better_o than_o one_o in_o a_o untrusty_a hand_n shall_v every_o papist_n or_o atheist_n choose_v i_o a_o physician_n as_o fit_a than_o i_o 2._o but_o if_o they_o shall_v never_o agree_v it_o be_v but_o every_o one_o stop_v at_o his_o own_o part_n the_o ordainer_n have_v do_v their_o part_n and_o the_o patron_n have_v choose_v a_o teacher_n for_o auditor_n and_o a_o pastor_n for_o such_o as_o will_v accept_v he_o and_o the_o people_n that_o trust_v he_o not_o may_v go_v to_o one_o that_o they_o can_v trust_v and_o this_o be_v better_a than_o worse_o l._n but_o the_o patron_n will_v prevail_v against_o they_o as_o long_o as_o he_o must_v nominate_v though_o the_o bishop_n and_o people_n have_v a_o negative_a vote_n for_o if_o they_o refuse_v one_o he_o will_v still_o name_v another_o of_o his_o own_o complexion_n m._n uncurable_a evil_n i_o can_v help_v i_o can_v but_o wish_v that_o no_o patron_n have_v ever_o build_v church_n or_o give_v glebe_n at_o so_o dear_a a_o rate_n as_o thereby_o to_o buy_v from_o the_o church_n its_o privilege_n l._n but_o can_v you_o think_v that_o the_o bishop_n will_v ever_o abate_v re-ordination_a of_o thsoe_n ordain_v by_o presbyter_n m._n i_o think_v not_o and_o therefore_o i_o have_v no_o hope_n of_o concord_n by_o their_o concession_n but_o i_o know_v that_o former_a bishop_n will_v have_v do_v it_o and_o the_o church_n of_o england_n still_o own_v such_o since_o the_o reformation_n and_o god_n may_v send_v england_n such_o again_o and_o for_o such_o a_o age_n i_o write_v and_o not_o for_o this_o with_o any_o great_a hope_n and_o if_o you_o will_v not_o have_v the_o land_n confound_v with_o doubt_n whether_o they_o be_v

you_o know_v it_o be_v hopeless_a to_o move_v for_o that_o 2._o and_o it_o be_v meet_a that_o ordination_n shall_v be_v well_o regulate_v 3._o and_o when_o all_o the_o unjust_a imposition_n be_v

that_o i_o doubt_v the_o bishop_n will_v never_o abate●_n their_o ceremony_n or_o any_o part_n of_o their_o liturgy_n so_o far_o to_o endure_v any_o to_o disuse_n it_o though_o they_o meddle_v not_o
