i_o be_v loath_a to_o do_v rather_o i_o labour_v mighty_o to_o defend_v it_o both_o against_o the_o puritan_n and_o against_o the_o catholic_n but_o the_o best_a argument_n i_o can_v use_v against_o the_o puritan_n from_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n and_o of_o the_o ancient_a doctor_n interpret_n scripture_n against_o they_o when_o they_o can_v not_o answer_v they_o they_o will_v reject_v they_o for_o popish_a and_o fly_v to_o their_o own_o arrogant_a spirit_n by_o which_o forsooth_o they_o must_v control_v other_o this_o i_o find_v on_o the_o one_o side_n most_o absurd_a and_o to_o breed_v a_o anarchy_n of_o confusion_n and_o yet_o when_o i_o come_v to_o answer_v the_o catholic_n argument_n on_o the_o other_o side_n against_o protestant_n urge_v the_o like_a authority_n and_o uniformity_n of_o the_o church_n i_o perceive_v the_o most_o protestant_n do_v frame_v evasion_n in_o effect_n like_o those_o of_o the_o puritan_n incline_v to_o their_o private_a spirit_n and_o other_o uncertainty_n next_o therefore_o i_o apply_v myself_o to_o follow_v their_o opinion_n who_o will_v make_v the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n still_o to_o be_v all_o one_o in_o essental_a point_n and_o the_o difference_n to_o be_v accidential_a confess_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n though_o sick_a or_o corrupt_v and_o the_o protestant_n to_o be_v derive_v from_o it_o and_o reform_v and_o to_o this_o end_n i_o labour_v much_o to_o reconcile_v most_o of_o our_o particular_a controversy_n but_o in_o truth_n i_o find_v such_o contrariety_n not_o only_o between_o catholic_n and_o protestant_n but_o even_o among_o protestant_n themselves_o that_o i_o can_v never_o settle_v myself_o full_o in_o this_o opinion_n of_o

but_o not_o effect_v whereabout_o i_o remember_v the_o controversy_n you_o have_v with_o one_o there_o be_v but_o one_o bishop_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a there_o be_v such_o a_o matter_n and_o although_o i_o know_v and_o have_v see_v the_o record_n themselves_o that_o afterward_o there_o be_v a_o consecration_n of_o dr._n parker_n at_o lambeth_n and_o three_o bishop_n name_v viz._n miles_n coverdal_n of_o exeter_n one_o hodgeskin_n suffragan_n of_o bedford_n and_o another_o who_o name_n i_o have_v forget_v yet_o it_o be_v very_o doubtful_a that_o coverdal_n be_v make_v bishop_n of_o exeter_n in_o

right_a intention_n for_o neither_o do_v the_o orderer_n nor_o the_o order_v give_v nor_o receive_v the_o order_n as_o a_o sacrament_n nor_o with_o any_o intention_n of_o sacrifice_v also_o they_o want_v the_o matter_n and_o form_n with_o which_o according_a to_o the_o council_n and_o canon_n of_o the_o church_n holy_a order_n shall_v be_v give_v namely_o for_o the_o matter_n priesthood_n be_v give_v by_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o patena_fw-la with_o bread_n and_o of_o the_o chalice_n with_o wine_n deaconship_n by_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o book_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o subdeaconship_n by_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o patena_fw-la alone_o and_o of_o the_o chalice_n empty_a and_o in_o the_o substantial_a form_n of_o priesthood_n you_o do_v fail_v most_o of_o all_o

undoubted_a canonical_a bishop_n want_v right_a intention_n want_v matter_n and_o due_a form_n and_o derive_v even_o that_o you_o seem_v to_o have_v from_o a_o woman_n the_o head_n of_o your_o
