to_o the_o roman_a emperor_n which_o speak_v latin_a as_o his_o mother_n tongue_n and_o therefore_o all_o endeavour_v to_o speak_v as_o the_o emperor_n speak_v although_o it_o be_v but_o break_v

themselves_o to_o speak_v english_a because_o they_o be_v subject_n to_o the_o king_n of_o england_n but_o now_o the_o west_n part_n of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v common_o call_v the_o latin_a church_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o man_n that_o speak_v latin_a as_o his_o proper_a language_n and_o the_o latin_a tongue_n have_v cease_v to_o be_v familiar_a among_o the_o people_n wherefore_o then_o shall_v not_o their_o service_n be_v now_o in_o the_o tongue_n which_o they_o understand_v as_o in_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v in_o the_o latin_a which_o they_o then_o understand_v godly_a discretion_n will_v think_v it_o fit_v now_o we_o have_v the_o benefit_n of_o print_v which_o in_o the_o old_a time_n we_o have_v not_o and_o we_o have_v such_o mean_n to_o advance_v religion_n as_o our_o forefather_n have_v not_o that_o every_o people_n shall_v have_v their_o liturgy_n not_o only_o in_o that_o tongue_n which_o they_o do_v understand_v as_o than_o it_o be_v but_o also_o in_o that_o tongue_n which_o they_o do_v natural_o speak_v and_o best_o understand_v as_o now_o all_o reform_a church_n almost_o have_v and_o this_o consideration_n move_v the_o reverend_a father_n doctor_n morgan_n now_o bishop_n of_o saint_n asaph_n and_o doctor_n goodman_n the_o late_a dean_n of_o westminster_n to_o take_v pain_n for_o the_o translate_n and_o publish_n of_o the_o bible_n in_o the_o welsh_a tongue_n by_o which_o their_o travail_n and_o godly_a endeavour_n they_o have_v advance_v the_o gospel_n in_o their_o own_o country_n and_o his_o highness_n shall_v true_o perform_v the_o office_n of_o a_o king_n if_o he_o take_v order_n that_o all_o man_n woman_n and_o child_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o speak_v english_a or_o else_o that_o they_o may_v have_v the_o liturgy_n translate_v and_o print_v in_o the_o irish_a tongue_n it_o have_v be_v object_v in_o the_o defence_n of_o latin_a service_n that_o it_o be_v profitable_a for_o they_o which_o understand_v it_o not_o because_o say_v they_o public_a prayer_n be_v not_o make_v to_o the_o people_n but_o to_o god_n which_o understand_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o people_n which_o understand_v not_o even_o as_o if_o a_o advocate_n shall_v plead_v before_o a_o judge_n which_o understand_v for_o his_o client_n which_o be_v not_o able_a to_o understand_v the_o state_n of_o his_o own_o cause_n and_o business_n and_o yet_o be_v as_o effectual_o handle_v by_o the_o advocate_n as_o if_o the_o client_n do_v understand_v i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v enough_o if_o the_o advocate_n understand_v which_o plead_v because_o the_o advocate_n plead_v alone_o but_o if_o the_o client_n shall_v join_v in_o plea_n with_o the_o advocate_n it_o be_v necessary_a also_o that_o the_o client_n shall_v understand_v because_o without_o understanding_n he_o can_v not_o plead_v and_o speak_v for_o himself_o but_o our_o parish_n church_n be_v ordain_v to_o this_o end_n that_o not_o only_o learned_a man_n shall_v resort_v thither_o as_o in_o school_n and_o college_n which_o do_v understand_v latin_a but_o all_o ignorant_a people_n for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o sabaoth_n and_o exercise_v of_o their_o religion_n that_o not_o only_o the_o minister_n there_o shall_v pray_v for_o they_o as_o the_o advocate_n alone_o speak_v for_o his_o client_n but_o they_o also_o shall_v pray_v for_o their_o own_o self_n and_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o court_n of_o earthly_a judge_n and_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n the_o people_n come_v not_o to_o the_o church_n only_o to_o be_v pray_v for_o by_o the_o minister_n for_o so_o they_o may_v stay_v at_o home_n in_o their_o own_o house_n and_o be_v pray_v for_o in_o the_o church_n but_o they_o come_v to_o pray_v themselves_o both_o for_o other_o and_o for_o themselves_o to_o join_v with_o the_o minister_n in_o prayer_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v teach_v they_o say_v now_o the_o god_n of_o patience_n and_o consolation_n grant_v that_o 15_o rom._n 15_o you_o may_v be_v like_o mind_a one_o to_o another_o according_a to_o christ_n jesus_n that_o you_o with_o one_o mind_n and_o one_o mouth_n may_v praise_v god_n the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o this_o they_o can_v do_v unless_o they_o understand_v he_o that_o pray_v and_o understand_v not_o his_o own_o word_n may_v think_v he_o pray_v when_o he_o swear_v and_o when_o he_o pray_v he_o know_v not_o that_o he_o pray_v as_o the_o high_a priest_n prophesy_v but_o know_v not_o that_o he_o do_v prophesy_v as_o the_o parrot_n which_o laugh_v know_v not_o that_o he_o laugh_v and_o the_o thrush_n 11._o john_n 11._o and_o blackbird_n sing_v but_o know_v not_o that_o they_o do_v sing_v but_o because_o bellarmine_n have_v compare_v pray_v unto_o plead_v what_o kind_n of_o plea_n shall_v that_o be_v which_o neither_o client_n nor_o advocate_n do_v understand_v it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o in_o queen_n mary_n day_n in_o many_o of_o our_o church_n the_o service_n be_v read_v but_o not_o understand_v n●●ther_o of_o the_o people_n nor_o yet_o the_o priest_n and_o so_o it_o be_v now_o in_o some_o country_n where_o sir_n john_n lack_n latin_n have_v the_o charge_n of_o soul_n and_o understand_v not_o the_o mass_n which_o he_o read_v bellarmine_n allege_v out_o of_o ezra_n that_o he_o read_v the_o law_n before_o 8_o 2._o ezr._n 8_o the_o people_n and_o pray_v in_o a_o language_n which_o they_o understand_v not_o and_o yet_o that_o the_o people_n do_v answer_v amen_o he_o do_v read_v say_v he_o in_o a_o strange_a language_n that_o be_v in_o
