something_o by_o way_n of_o query_n to_o the_o bishop_n court_n which_o we_o the_o people_n of_o god_n call_v quaker_n never_o yet_o receive_v a_o answer_n to_o chancellor_n why_o do_v you_o not_o come_v to_o church_n give_v a_o reason_n why_o you_o will_v not_o come_v i_o demand_v of_o thou_o the_o king_n patten_n with_o his_o seal_n and_o his_o hand_n and_o his_o arm_n for_o keep_v thy_o court_n before_o i_o speak_v to_o thou_o any_o more_o for_o many_o keep_v court_n and_o show_v not_o their_o authority_n and_o by_o that_o i_o may_v be_v bring_v into_o bondage_n so_o i_o will_v see_v thy_o patten_n with_o the_o king_n seal_n and_o hand_n and_o arm_n and_o second_o i_o will_v know_v the_o reason_n of_o thou_o why_o thou_o and_o you_o forsake_v we_o near_o about_o twenty_o year_n ago_o and_o leave_v your_o church_n that_o by_o this_o time_n i_o may_v have_v be_v turn_v heathen_a a_o turk_n or_o a_o jew_n and_o my_o soul_n may_v have_v be_v lose_v for_o thou_o and_o you_o for_o who_o have_v watch_v over_o i_o and_o be_v my_o keeper_n about_o these_o twenty_o year_n but_o you_o have_v leave_v i_o i_o have_v neither_o sermon_n nor_o exhortation_n nor_o epistle_n nor_o colect_n nor_o gospel_n nor_o evensong_n nor_o homily_n nor_o mattin_n from_o you_o though_o the_o lord_n god_n have_v be_v my_o watcher_n over_o i_o and_o my_o overseer_n who_o be_v now_o my_o teacher_n and_o do_v you_o think_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o require_v his_o fock_n at_o your_o hand_n which_o you_o leave_v almost_o twenty_o year_n to_o the_o wolf_n and_o dog_n to_o tear_v our_o fleece_n and_o flesh_n and_o to_o destroy_v the_o sheep_n and_o then_o will_v he_o require_v the_o fleece_n if_o he_o require_v the_o sheep_n and_o his_o flock_n which_o you_o have_v leave_v to_o wolf_n and_o dog_n to_o tear_v the_o fleece_n off_o the_o back_n of_o they_o for_o how_o have_v anabaptist_n and_o independent_n and_o presbyterian_o tear_v the_o flesh_n off_o the_o back_n of_o the_o sheep_n and_o prison_v the_o sheep_n to_o death_n and_o you_o in_o the_o time_n of_o persecution_n neither_o send_v epistle_n nor_o colect_n nor_o exhortation_n nor_o gospel_n nor_o evensong_n nor_o homily_n nor_o mattin_n to_o the_o sheep_n nor_o matter_v not_o they_o nor_o care_v for_o they_o for_o if_o a_o man_n hire_v a_o man_n to_o keep_v a_o flock_n of_o sheep_n and_o have_v so_o many_o deliver_v into_o his_o hand_n and_o the_o hireling_n shepherd_n have_v so_o much_o a_o year_n will_v not_o the_o master_n or_o the_o lord_n require_v both_o sheep_n and_o fleece_n of_o the_o hireling_n shepherd_n if_o he_o see_v a_o dog_n or_o a_o wolf_n which_o may_v be_v call_v the_o usurp_a power_n come_v to_o worry_v the_o sheep_n and_o he_o fly_v away_o in_o the_o time_n of_o persecution_n be_v not_o this_o a_o hireling_n that_o fly_v because_o he_o be_v a_o hireling_n and_o do_v not_o care_n for_o the_o sheep_n and_o worse_o than_o david_n who_o defend_v his_o sheep_n from_o the_o bear_n and_o the_o lion_n and_o so_o if_o the_o shepherd_n suffer_v any_o of_o the_o sheep_n to_o be_v worry_v or_o feece_n to_o be_v tear_v off_o will_v not_o the_o master_n or_o lord_n require_v both_o his_o fleece_n and_o sheep_n of_o the_o shepherd_n so_o read_v jacob_n to_o laban_n for_o do_v not_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o will_v require_v both_o the_o fleece_n and_o flock_n so_o consider_v and_o judge_v yourselves_o in_o this_o case_n and_o do_v not_o ask_v i_o a_o reason_n why_o i_o do_v not_o come_v to_o the_o church_n but_o answer_v i_o this_o why_o you_o leave_v i_o as_o a_o sheep_n to_o all_o the_o wolf_n for_o we_o have_v the_o king_n speech_n and_o declaration_n and_o promise_n and_o word_n of_o a_o king_n for_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n that_o none_o shall_v call_v we_o in_o question_n if_o we_o live_v peaceable_o under_o his_o government_n therefore_o what_o have_v you_o to_o do_v to_o call_v we_o in_o question_n contrary_a to_o the_o king_n speech_n and_o declaration_n and_o word_n of_o a_o king_n we_o be_v peaceable_a as_o you_o may_v read_v his_o late_a declaration_n and_o there_o be_v a_o act_n that_o four_o may_v meet_v so_o i_o may_v meet_v with_o my_o own_o family_n by_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o so_o if_o you_o will_v give_v i_o a_o reason_n why_o you_o for_o sook_v we_o and_o prove_v all_o your_o practice_n worship_n and_o religion_n by_o
