by_o the_o canon_n law_n consist_v of_o archbishop_n diocesan_n bishop_n with_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o that_o erew_n for_o this_o be_v indeed_o both_o your_o church_n and_o ministry_n which_o do_v appear_v by_o your_o own_o ground_n because_o you_o affirm_v that_o in_o this_o part_n lie_v all_o the_o power_n but_o by_o your_o own_o ground_n the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o land_n i_o mean_v of_o the_o laity_n as_o you_o call_v they_o have_v no_o power_n at_o all_o to_o reform_v any_o abuse_n therefore_o this_o clergy_n must_v needs_o be_v your_o church_n and_o thus_o you_o make_v yourselves_o the_o head_n and_o body_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o land_n the_o ●ayle_n to_o follow_v after_o you_o now_o if_o you_o can_v prove_v this_o to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n which_o have_v neither_o ground_n nor_o foot_v in_o christ_n testament_n you_o will_v work_v wonder_n but_o indeed_o such_o wonder_n have_v be_v wrought_v by_o you_o for_o all_o the_o world_n have_v wonder_v and_o run_v after_o the_o beast_n say_v who_o be_v like_o unto_o he_o and_o who_o be_v able_a to_o make_v war_n with_o he_o as_o you_o may_v plain_o see_v in_o the_o 13._o of_o the_o reveation_n 13._o therefore_o they_o that_o do_v justify_v such_o a_o church_n be_v such_o as_o have_v be_v deceive_v by_o her_o false_a miracle_n even_o by_o the_o fire_n which_o she_o have_v make_v to_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n i_o pray_v you_o do_v not_o fire_v come_v down_o from_o heaven_n in_o queen_n mary_n time_n and_o devour_v the_o saint_n in_o smithfield_n if_o you_o understand_v heaven_n in_o that_o place_n as_o i_o understand_v it_o to_o be_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o magistrate_n you_o must_v grant_v the_o same_o for_o they_o be_v call_v god_n and_o the_o child_n of_o the_o most_o high_a for_o your_o forefather_n do_v as_o pila●_n do_v wash_v their_o hand_n from_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o of_o the_o innocent_a and_o turn_v they_o over_o for_o their_o sentence_n of_o condemnation_n to_o the_o secular_a power_n which_o you_o make_v your_o horn_n and_o your_o head_n push_v they_o forward_o to_o execute_v your_o bloody_a cruelty_n and_o thus_o you_o may_v see_v that_o fire_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n in_o the_o sight_n or_o apprehension_n of_o man_n for_o most_o that_o behold_v it_o think_v it_o be_v just_a because_o it_o be_v the_o sentence_n of_o the_o magistrate_n and_o by_o this_o all_o man_n may_v see_v that_o you_o of_o the_o clergy_n be_v the_o derive_v church_n of_o england_n and_o that_o this_o clergy_n come_v from_o rome_n and_o that_o therefore_o your_o church_n be_v derive_v from_o rome_n now_o if_o you_o will_v know_v whence_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v derive_v i_o conceive_v that_o her_o power_n be_v derive_v from_o the_o beast_n with_o seven_o head_n which_o rise_v up_o out_o of_o the_o sea_n as_o you_o may_v read_v of_o in_o the_o thirteen_o of_o the_o revelation_n for_o there_o both_o those_o beast_n be_v mention_v

have_v prove_v unto_o you_o already_o what_o it_o be_v as_o you_o may_v also_o read_v in_o the_o 15._o verse_n of_o that_o chapter_n it_o be_v that_o to_o who_o the_o beast_n give_v a_o spirit_n and_o also_o he_o give_v it_o power_n that_o it_o shall_v speak_v and_o cause_n as_o many_o as_o will_v not_o worship_v the_o image_n of_o the_o beast_n to_o be_v kill_v and_o have_v not_o this_o image_n cause_v abundance_n to_o be_v kill_v in_o england_n and_o have_v not_o he_o cause_v all_o to_o receive_v his_o mark_n or_o his_o name_n or_o the_o number_n of_o his_o name_n and_o they_o that_o have_v it_o not_o may_v neither_o buy_v nor_o sell_v as_o it_o be_v apparent_a by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n itself_o and_o woeful_a experience_n and_o be_v not_o this_o image_n the_o church_n that_o now_o you_o ●leade_v for_o which_o consist_v of_o all_o the_o priest_n of_o england_n if_o it_o be_v not_o i_o be_v pray_v you_o tell_v i_o what_o it_o be_v but_o if_o this_o be_v it_o as_o it_o appear_v it_o be_v than_o these_o be_v your_o minister_n also_o and_o than_o it_o have_v be_v prove_v plain_o whence_o this_o your_o church_n and_o ministry_n come_v and_o that_o any_o of_o understanding_n shall_v grant_v this_o church_n and_o ministry_n to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n and_o ministry_n will_v bewray_v great_a ignorance_n in_o they_o further_o you_o add_v that_o they_o acknowledge_v the_o ordinance_n to_o be_v true_a in_o this_o i_o do_v believe_v you_o upon_o your_o bare_a word_n for_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n if_o you_o mean_v god_n ordinance_n which_o you_o have_v among_o you_o as_o first_o you_o have_v the_o scripture_n but_o you_o wring_v it_o and_o wrest_v it_o according_a to_o your_o own_o device_n and_o make_v of_o it_o a_o nose_n of_o wax_n and_o a_o leaden_a rule_n to_o lean_v which_o way_n your_o mind_n lead_v you_o and_o though_o you_o ought_v to_o take_v that_o reed_n or_o rod_n in_o your_o hand_n at_o all_o time_n if_o you_o be_v god_n messenger_n to_o measure_v both_o the_o temple_n and_o the_o altar_n and_o the_o worshipper_n rev._n 11._o 2_o yet_o you_o have_v not_o learn_v that_o skill_n for_o your_o church_n and_o ministry_n hold_v no_o correspondency_n with_o that_o measure_v line_n but_o contrariwise_o you_o have_v take_v that_o golden_a cup_n and_o fill_v it_o full_a of_o abomination_n ●ay_v you_o have_v hack_v it_o and_o mangle_v it_o to_o piece_n and_o make_v it_o into_o little_a lesson_n which_o you_o call_v your_o epistle_n and_o gospel_n and_o they_o be_v dedicate_v to_o your_o saint_n upon_o your_o saints-daye_n and_o thus_o you_o may_v see_v though_o you_o have_v the_o scripture_n which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o take_v upon_o you_o to_o unfold_v the_o mystery_n thereof_o yet_o in_o stead_n of_o that_o you_o darken_v the_o truth_n by_o false_a gloss_n second_o you_o have_v the_o sacrament_n even_o baptism_n and_o break_v of_o bread_n but_o you_o pervert_v they_o both_o to_o your_o own_o destruction_n nevertheless_o they_o still_o remain_v god_n ordinance_n even_o as_o the_o golden_a vessel_n be_v god_n vessel_n when_o they_o be_v in_o babel_n though_o bels●azar_n make_v

may_v be_v sanctify_v to_o the_o use_n of_o they_o among_o you_o which_o be_v god_n people_n according_a to_o the_o election_n of_o grace_n and_o though_o you_o have_v some_o of_o god_n ordinance_n
