if_o this_o be_v that_o which_o you_o refer_v to_o as_o i_o suppose_v there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v say_v concern_v it_o 1._o that_o those_o various_a difference_n and_o disagreement_n of_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n then_o use_v in_o the_o church_n which_o this_o act_n refer_v to_o be_v not_o all_o from_o the_o protestant_n but_o most_o of_o they_o from_o the_o papist_n themselves_o who_o have_v different_a form_n of_o prayer_n and_o different_a rite_n and_o manner_n of_o worship_n of_o long_a time_n before_o in_o this_o land_n according_a to_o the_o different_a use_n of_o

therefore_o you_o be_v not_o to_o understand_v that_o all_o those_o thing_n be_v the_o innovation_n of_o protestant_n which_o be_v prohibit_v therein_o 2._o that_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o
