the_o clergy_n and_o people_n throughout_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o so_o saucy_o to_o reflect_v on_o those_o who_o will_v not_o comply_v with_o the_o proud_a impose_v humour_n and_o pay_v a_o

these_o follow_a remark_n and_o first_o of_o all_o i_o can_v but_o observe_v that_o it_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o good_a manner_n and_o the_o deference_n which_o we_o owe_v to_o antiquity_n and_o the_o author_n of_o the_o old_a version_n of_o the_o psalm_n in_o metre_n which_o have_v be_v universal_o receive_v and_o use_v throughout_o this_o kingdom_n since_o the_o reformation_n and_o which_o by_o the_o vindicator_n own_o confession_n have_v administer_v singular_a instruction_n and_o consolation_n and_o unspeakable_a benefit_n to_o those_o who_o have_v pious_o and_o devout_o use_v it_o to_o cast_v such_o a_o awkard_n and_o disingenuous_a reflection_n on_o the_o author_n of_o it_o who_o have_v be_v the_o happy_a instrument_n of_o celebrate_v the_o praise_n of_o our_o creator_n and_o

which_o have_v a_o harsh_a and_o jar_a sound_n in_o the_o delicate_a and_o musical_a ear_n of_o the_o ingenious_a and_o unsuitable_a to_o the_o mode_n of_o speak_v in_o this_o refine_a this_o polite_a age_n yet_o it_o be_v very_o undecent_a to_o ridicule_n and_o expose_v it_o and_o as_o unpardonable_a a_o rudeness_n as_o for_o a_o convert_a jew_n to_o scoff_n at_o the_o stammer_n of_o moses_n or_o

the_o apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n by_o his_o own_o example_n teach_v his_o new_a proselyte_n to_o pay_v respect_n and_o reverence_n to_o circumcision_n and_o the_o rite_n of_o the_o abolish_v law_n

labour_v to_o promote_v a_o general_a reception_n of_o his_o new_a translation_n and_o evince_v it_o to_o be_v the_o duty_n both_o of_o the_o clergy_n and_o people_n especial_o the_o former_a to_o receive_v and_o use_v it_o in_o all_o church_n and_o chapel_n throughout_o the_o kingdom_n which_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v upon_o a_o strict_a enquiry_n and_o close_a examination_n will_v appear_v to_o the_o impartial_a reader_n to_o be_v very_o vain_a and_o tri_n illogical_a and_o inconclusive_a there_o be_v three_o argument_n which_o he_o advance_v and_o chief_o insist_o upon_o to_o this_o

can_v do_v less_o than_o wish_v a_o good_a success_n to_o this_o royal_a indulgence_n and_o i_o do_v hearty_o recommend_v the_o use_n of_o this_o version_n to_o all_o my_o brethren_n within_o my_o diocese_n so_o that_o here_o the_o vindicator_n argue_v from_o two_o thing_n viz._n the_o royal_a allowance_n and_o the_o bishop_n recommendation_n 1._o he_o argue_v from_o the_o royal_a allowance_n which_o he_o will_v make_v tantamount_n to_o a_o injunction_n at_o least_o a_o recommendation_n whereas_o it_o be_v neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o 1._o not_o a_o injunction_n neither_o express_o nor_o by_o implication_n the_o royal_a allowance_n in_o this_o instance_n be_v of_o the_o same_o force_n and_o validity_n with_o a_o imprimatur_fw-la prefix_v to_o a_o book_n or_o sermon_n

of_o it_o but_o do_v not_o enjoin_v all_o the_o subject_n of_o england_n clergy_n and_o people_n to_o pay_v a_o universal_a respect_n to_o it_o or_o to_o receive_v and_o use_v it_o as_o they_o do_v
