the_o minister_n charge_v himself_o by_o a_o solemn_a vow_n to_o teach_v and_o instruct_v the_o people_n commit_v to_o his_o charge_n with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o holy_a scripture_n second_o the_o

which_o two_o branch_n proceed_v two_o other_o question_n first_o whether_o every_o minister_n ought_v not_o to_o exercise_v the_o discipline_n of_o christ_n by_o force_n of_o this_o demand_n and_o

34_o to_o the_o first_o his_o own_o promise_n to_o the_o bishop_n interrogatory_n bind_v he_o as_o well_o to_o minister_v the_o discipline_n as_o the_o doctrine_n and_o sacrament_n to_o the_o second_o if_o you_o answer_v that_o the_o doctrine_n and_o sacrament_n and_o discipline_n of_o christ_n be_v simple_o to_o be_v minister_v as_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v than_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v if_o this_o realm_n have_v receive_v the_o same_o according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o realm_n and_o the_o law_n of_o god_n command_v both_o one_o thing_n and_o so_o by_o both_o law_n the_o doctrine_n and_o sacrament_n and_o discipline_n be_v to_o be_v minister_v as_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v but_o if_o you_o shall_v say_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v minister_v only_o as_o this_o realm_n have_v receive_v the_o same_o though_o not_o according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n then_o these_o word_n of_o the_o article_n follow_v

can_v have_v no_o such_o interpretation_n for_o the_o meaning_n of_o these_o word_n be_v that_o every_o bishop_n shall_v by_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o realm_n have_v his_o office_n commit_v unto_o

and_o in_o like_a case_n i_o conclude_v that_o a_o minister_n bind_v as_o you_o have_v see_v before_o to_o minister_v the_o discipline_n of_o christ_n ought_v so_o to_o minister_v the_o same_o as_o

of_o christ_n unless_o it_o be_v in_o deed_n minister_v as_o the_o lord_n christ_n have_v command_v the_o same_o shall_v be_v minister_v and_o therefore_o as_o no_o bishop_n may_v or_o aught_o to_o correct_v or_o punish_v any_o transgressor_n any_o otherwise_o then_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n so_o no_o minister_n ought_v to_o exercise_v any_o discipline_n than_o such_o as_o the_o lord_n christ_n have_v command_v if_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o our_o discipline_n use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v in_o very_a deed_n the_o very_a same_o discipline_n
her_o highness_n as_o to_o grant_v she_o this_o liberty_n it_o may_v please_v he_o beside_o the_o four_o injunction_n before_o allege_a to_o peruse_v the_o 27._o and_o 53._o injunction_n where_o

be_v all_o deacons_n or_o to_o transpose_v without_o authority_n the_o office_n of_o their_o fellow-seruant_n unto_o themselves_o but_o to_o tie_v the_o read_n of_o homily_n unto_o deacons_n be_v so_o far_o from_o all_o appearance_n or_o colour_n of_o truth_n that_o in_o the_o selfsame_o place_n where_o he_o curtail_v rather_o than_o abridge_v the_o office_n of_o the_o deacon_n the_o book_n set_v down_o that_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o deacons_n office_n to_o read_v holy_a scripture_n and_o homily_n in_o the_o church_n where_o he_o shall_v be_v appoint_v to_o assist_v the_o priest_n
