whoever_o please_v and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o remedy_n nor_o as_o much_o as_o any_o way_n of_o clear_v in_o other_o case_n the_o law_n take_v care_n of_o man_n name_n as_o well_o as_o of_o

to_o fecure_v the_o church_n of_o england_n under_o a_o popish_a successor_n though_o he_o shall_v be_v mild_a and_o gentle_a and_o not_o bend_v upon_o the_o enforce_n of_o his_o religion_n one_o chief_a ground_n of_o the_o question_n be_v that_o the_o king_n bestow_v the_o bishopric_n and_o many_o other_o ecclesiastical_a preferment_n and_o it_o can_v well_o as_o you_o reasonable_o offer_v be_v suppose_v but_o that_o he_o will_v in_o that_o case_n bestow_v they_o on_o such_o as_o either_o be_v popish_o affect_v or_o not_o very_o averse_a to_o or_o zealous_a against_o that_o religion_n or_o if_o the_o king_n shall_v do_v otherwise_o and_o bestow_v they_o upon_o the_o most_o worthy_a sincere_a thorough_a protestant_n yet_o the_o people_n will_v entertain_v jealousy_n of_o they_o and_o never_o think_v they_o such_o which_o will_v destroy_v their_o authority_n and_o reverence_n and_o occasion_n the_o dispersion_n of_o the_o people_n yet_o further_o into_o corner_n to_o this_o i_o say_v that_o i_o do_v not_o pretend_v to_o offer_v public_a expedient_n in_o such_o great_a and_o weighty_a matter_n but_o i_o think_v that_o if_o by_o any_o mean_n of_o justice_n and_o safety_n to_o the_o right_n of_o the_o crown_n such_o as_o consent_v in_o that_o case_n will_v be_v canonical_a election_n shall_v during_o such_o time_n be_v grant_v to_o each_o particular_a church_n and_o

as_o they_o think_v fit_a as_o in_o some_o former_a time_n they_o do_v each_o dean_n and_o chapter_n to_o choose_v the_o bishop_n of_o the_o diocese_n and_o their_o own_o member_n that_o this_o may_v be_v reasonable_a security_n and_o if_o the_o bishop_n the_o dean_n and_o chapter_n the_o clergy_n of_o each_o diocese_n or_o distinct_a deanery_n or_o the_o university_n shall_v have_v the_o right_n give_v they_o of_o present_v to_o the_o king_n live_n during_o such_o time_n of_o a_o popish_a successor_n this_o way_n i_o humble_o think_v may_v in_o all_o likelihood_n secure_v we_o against_o those_o danger_n for_o the_o clergy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v of_o all_o man_n most_o concern_v in_o point_n of_o interest_n as_o well_o as_o principle_n and_o profession_n to_o oppose_v popery_n and_o as_o far_o as_o lawful_o they_o may_v all_o advance_n towards_o it_o this_o one_o will_v think_v shall_v need_v no_o proof_n but_o it_o seem_v it_o do_v among_o some_o and_o i_o shall_v clear_v that_o matter_n by_o and_o by_o and_o they_o will_v no_o doubt_v take_v care_n from_o time_n to_o time_n to_o elect_a such_o as_o be_v most_o fast_o to_o our_o protestant_a constitution_n most_o eminent_a in_o their_o life_n and_o learning_n and_o most_o able_a and_o ready_a to_o oppose_v popish_a corruption_n and_o so_o the_o church_n of_o england_n may_v stand_v if_o direct_v and_o profess_a violence_n be_v not_o offer_v to_o it_o to_o this_o purpose_n i_o then_o say_v i_o think_v on_o the_o occasion_n of_o his_o majesty_n gracious_a offer_n for_o protestant_a security_n under_o a_o successor_n of_o the_o other_o religion_n i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o opportunity_n may_v be_v offer_v again_o the_o next_o session_n but_o if_o any_o such_o be_v and_o this_o
