remain_v to_o say_v that_o tithe_n in_o this_o place_n do_v together_o with_o the_o say_a proportion_n consignifie_v the_o use_n of_o it_o viz._n the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o clergy_n as_o also_o the_o matter_n or_o substance_n out_o of_o which_o this_o maintenance_n be_v cut_v viz._n the_o immediate_a fruit_n of_o the_o land_n and_o water_n or_o the_o proceed_v of_o man_n labour_n art_n and_o

the_o matter_n of_o tithe_n be_v the_o immediate_a fruitsof_n the_o earth_n viz._n of_o grain_n as_o soon_o as_o it_o be_v ready_a to_o be_v remove_v from_o the_o ground_n that_o bear_v it_o and_o

moreover_o in_o great_a city_n tithe_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o composition_n in_o money_n for_o the_o labour_n and_o profit_n of_o the_o artisan_n who_o work_v upon_o the_o material_n which_o have_v pay_v tithe_n before_o 6._o tithe_n therefore_o increase_v within_o any_o territory_n as_o the_o labour_n of_o that_o country_n increase_v and_o labour_n do_v or_o aught_o to_o increase_v as_o the_o people_n do_v now_o within_o four_o hundred_o year_n the_o people_n of_o england_n be_v about_o quadruple_v as_o double_v every_o two_o hundred_o year_n and_o the_o proportion_n of_o the_o rent_n of_o

wherefore_o the_o tithe_n now_o shall_v be_v twelve_o time_n as_o good_a as_o they_o be_v four_o hundred_o year_n ago_o which_o the_o rate_n of_o benefice_n in_o the_o king_n book_n do-pretty_a well_o show_v by_o compare_v of_o time_n something_o of_o this_o shall_v be_v abate_v because_o the_o proportion_n between_o the_o proceed_v of_o land_n and_o labour_n do_v vary_v as_o the_o hand_n of_o labourer_n vary_v wherefore_o we_o shall_v rather_o say_v that_o the_o tithe_n be_v but_o six_o time_n as_o good_a now_o as_o four_o hundred_o year_n ago_o that_o be_v that_o the_o tithe_n now_o will_v pay_v six_o time_n as_o many_o labourer_n or_o feed_v six_o time_n as_o many_o mouth_n as_o the_o tithe_n four_o hundred_o year_n ago_o will_v have_v do_v 8._o now_o if_o there_o be_v not_o
