have_v present_v any_o man_n who_o they_o never_o know_v and_o the_o order_n of_o this_o church_n be_v agreeable_a herein_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o ancient_a and_o best_a canon_n that_o no_o man_n shall_v be_v make_v a_o minister_n sine_fw-la titulo_fw-la therefore_o have_v none_o i_o can_v not_o by_o the_o order_n of_o this_o church_n have_v enter_v into_o the_o ministry_n before_o i_o have_v a_o charge_n to_o tend_v upon_o when_o i_o be_v at_o antwerp_n and_o to_o take_v a_o place_n of_o ministry_n among_o the_o people_n of_o that_o nation_n i_o see_v no_o cause_n

law_n receive_v only_o a_o benevolence_n and_o voluntary_a contribution_n and_o the_o ministry_n i_o deal_v with_o be_v preach_v only_o which_o every_o deacon_n here_o may_v do_v be_v license_v and_o certain_a that_o be_v neither_o minister_n not_o deacon_n thus_o i_o answer_v the_o former_a of_o these_o two_o point_n whereof_o if_o there_o be_v yet_o any_o doubt_n i_o humble_o desire_v for_o a_o final_a end_n thereof_o that_o some_o competent_a judge_n in_o law_n may_v determine_v of_o it_o whereunto_o i_o refer_v and_o submit_v myself_o with_o all_o reverence_n and_o duty_n the_o second_o be_v that_o i_o preach_v without_o licence_n whereunto_o this_o be_v my_o answer_n i_o have_v not_o presume_v upon_o the_o call_v i_o have_v to_o the_o ministry_n abroad_o to_o preach_v or_o deal_v with_o any_o part_n of_o the_o ministry_n within_o this_o church_n without_o the_o consent_n and_o allowance_n of_o such_o as_o be_v to_o allow_v i_o unto_o it_o my_o allowance_n be_v from_o the_o bishop_n of_o london_n testify_v by_o his_o two_o several_a letter_n to_o the_o inner_a temple_n who_o without_o such_o testimony_n will_v by_o no_o mean_n rest_v satify_v in_o it_o which_o letter_n be_v by_o i_o produce_v i_o refer_v it_o to_o your_o honour_n wisdom_n whether_o i_o have_v take_v upon_o i_o to_o preach_v without_o be_v allow_v as_o they_o charge_v according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o realm_n thus_o have_v answer_v the_o second_o point_n also_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o objection_n of_o deal_v without_o call_v or_o licence_n the_o other_o reason_n they_o allege_v be_v concern_v a_o late_a action_n wherein_o i_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o mr._n hooker_n master_n of_o the_o temple_n in_o the_o handle_n of_o which_o cause_n they_o charge_v i_o with_o a_o indiscretion_n

i_o will_v do_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v and_o according_a to_o the_o truth_n god_n be_v my_o witness_n as_o near_o as_o my_o best_a memory_n and_o note_n of_o remembrance_n may_v serve_v i_o thereunto_o after_o that_o i_o have_v take_v away_o that_o which_o seem_v to_o have_v move_v they_o to_o think_v i_o not_o charitable_o mind_v to_o mr._n hooker_n which_o be_v because_o he_o be_v
