of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o the_o common_a article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n in_o their_o creed_n be_v never_o call_v in_o question_n but_o it_o be_v not_o my_o present_a purpose_n to_o consider_v the_o sentiment_n of_o our_o reformer_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o church_n as_o it_o be_v a_o sect_n but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o society_n neither_o shall_v i_o be_v curious_a to_o

look_v on_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o a_o church_n so_o well_o constitute_v that_o her_o communion_n be_v a_o lawful_a communion_n for_o this_o we_o have_v two_o as_o good_a evidence_n as_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n be_v capable_a of_o viz._n the_o constant_a and_o uniform_a practice_n of_o our_o reformer_n join_v in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n when_o they_o have_v occasion_n as_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v with_o the_o church_n of_o scotland_n and_o their_o open_a profession_n in_o their_o public_a deed_n that_o they_o think_v it_o lawful_a 1._o i_o say_v it_o be_v the_o constant_a practice_n of_o our_o reformer_n to_o join_v in_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n when_o they_o have_v occasion_n as_o
