the_o gospel_n it_o may_v not_o therefore_o be_v allow_v whereunto_o i_o answer_v answer_n that_o be_v not_o ceremonial_a it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o any_o christian_n being_n clear_a &_o free_a from_o the_o manichee_n opinion_n that_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v approve_v it_o again_o grant_v that_o it_o have_v no_o commandment_n in_o either_o the_o old_a or_o new_a testament_n be_v it_o therefore_o without_o all_o advice_n and_o consideration_n to_o be_v reject_v very_o many_o thing_n have_v be_v very_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n which_o have_v have_v no_o express_a commandment_n in_o the_o scripture_n as_o the_o gold_n incense_n &_o mirre_v which_o the_o three_o wiseman_n offer_v unto_o christ_n the_o precious_a box_n of_o spiknard_n wherewith_o marie_n magdalen_n anoint_v his_o bless_a foot_n the_o costly_a oder_n 19_o wherew_v t_o nicodemus_n do_v embalm_v his_o glorious_a body_n the_o bow_n of_o tree_n &_o garment_n which_o the_o people_n break_v down_o 11._o &_o spread_v in_o the_o way_n as_o he_o go_v to_o jerusalem_n &_o infinite_a other_o more_o which_o be_v do_v without_o any_o warrant_n of_o holy_a scripture_n wherefore_o as_o in_o the_o build_n of_o the_o temple_n the_o service_n of_o they_o which_o bring_v lime_n and_o mortar_n and_o other_o base_a thing_n and_o as_o in_o the_o beautify_v of_o christ_n body_n these_o thing_n of_o small_a price_n and_o value_n be_v acceptable_a unto_o the_o lord_n so_o no_o doubt_n but_o the_o song_n of_o the_o faithful_a may_v be_v as_o a_o sweet_a odor_n of_o incense_n unto_o he_o and_o most_o grateful_a in_o his_o sight_n three_o objection_n this_o use_n of_o sing_v be_v a_o ceremonial_a thing_n and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o yet_o this_o be_v a_o sufficient_a cause_n why_o it_o shall_v be_v exclude_v out_o of_o the_o church_n i_o answer_v that_o music_n be_v no_o ceremony_n answer_n for_o every_o ceremony_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n be_v a_o type_n and_o figure_n of_o somewhat_o the_o substance_n whereof_o come_v in_o place_n the_o ceremony_n be_v abolish_v now_o because_o we_o find_v nothing_o in_o the_o gospel_n which_o answer_v to_o music_n in_o a_o certain_a agreement_n of_o similitude_n as_o unto_o his_o type_n and_o figure_n we_o may_v therefore_o safe_o pronounce_v that_o music_n be_v neither_o ceremonial_a in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n nor_o to_o be_v abolish_v out_o of_o the_o church_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n many_o other_o reason_n of_o small_a moment_n may_v be_v bring_v against_o we_o but_o see_v so_o little_a force_n in_o the_o strong_a i_o think_v it_o a_o unnecessary_a point_n to_o trouble_v my_o paper_n and_o the_o reader_n with_o the_o weak_a and_o sure_o i_o do_v not_o mislike_v the_o good_a counsel_n &_o indevor_n of_o any_o well_o dispose_v man_n that_o be_v earnest_a in_o correct_v abuse_n and_o in_o separate_v that_o which_o be_v good_a from_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o desperate_a remedy_n for_o some_o few_o abuse_n and_o inconvenience_n which_o may_v be_v better_o amend_v to_o root_v out_o all_o music_n from_o the_o church_n max._n much_o like_o the_o counsel_n of_o fabritius_n and_o other_o senator_n of_o rome_n which_o by_o abolish_n gold_n &_o silver_n or_o at_o leastwise_o the_o use_n thereof_o think_v to_o take_v away_o covetousness_n and_o ambition_n lycur_n or_o the_o devise_n of_o lycurgus_n among_o the_o lacedaemonian_n who_o for_o hatred_n of_o drunkenness_n cause_v all_o the_o vine_n in_o the_o country_n to_o be_v dig_v up_o by_o the_o root_n now_o as_o these_o man_n be_v otherwise_o wise_a and_o politic_a as_o diverse_a other_o their_o action_n testify_v take_v not_o herein_o a_o right_a course_n of_o reform_v those_o fault_n which_o be_v amiss_o because_o they_o may_v better_o have_v take_v order_n against_o covetousness_n and_o drunkenness_n by_o permit_v a_o lawful_a and_o decent_a use_n of_o money_n and_o wine_n than_o by_o quite_o abolish_n of_o they_o even_o so_o those_o which_o reprehend_v certain_a thing_n in_o church_n music_n may_v better_o reform_v they_o in_o permit_v a_o moderate_a use_n than_o in_o pluck_v it_o uppe_o by_o the_o root_n for_o as_o a_o man_n may_v be_v covetous_a without_o money_n and_o drunken_a without_o wine_n so_o a_o frail_a and_o weak_a mind_n will_v find_v other_o provocation_n to_o call_v it_o from_o the_o ditty_n though_o music_n shall_v be_v want_v wherefore_o for_o conclusion_n of_o this_o matter_n as_o i_o easy_o grant_v to_o master_n bullinger_n that_o this_o be_v no_o good_a argument_n the_o east_n church_n use_v sing_v the_o west_n church_n use_v not_o sing_v therefore_o the_o west_n church_n be_v no_o church_n 5._o so_o i_o hope_v master_n bullinger_n and_o any_o other_o good_a man_n whatsoever_o will_v grant_v as_o much_o to_o i_o that_o this_o be_v as_o false_a a_o collection_n the_o west_n church_n use_v not_o sing_v the_o east_n church_n do_v use_v sing_v therefore_o the_o east_n church_n be_v no_o church_n see_v then_o that_o there_o be_v no_o precept_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n whereby_o church-musicke_n be_v either_o command_v or_o forbid_v as_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o as_o those_o church_n which_o use_v it_o not_o can_v be_v compel_v to_o receive_v it_o so_o those_o church_n which_o do_v use_v it_o can_v by_o no_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o be_v condemn_v and_o this_o be_v the_o resolution_n of_o all_o our_o late_a divine_n bucer_n bullinger_n caluin_n and_o the_o rest_n which_o with_o one_o consent_n agree_v that_o it_o be_v a_o indifferent_a thing_n have_v no_o hurt_n but_o rather_o much_o good_a in_o it_o if_o it_o be_v discreet_o and_o sober_o use_v why_o then_o be_v it_o not_o as_o lawful_a for_o i_o to_o incline_v to_o this_o part_n that_o it_o shall_v or_o may_v be_v use_v as_o it_o be_v for_o they_o to_o incline_v to_o the_o contrary_a that_o it_o shall_v not_o or_o may_v not_o in_o any_o wise_a be_v use_v consider_v that_o neither_o my_o sing_n make_v i_o less_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n nor_o their_o not_o sing_v they_o the_o more_o holy_a and_o devoute_a man_n last_o therefore_o it_o remain_v that_o have_v answer_v the_o chief_a argument_n that_o make_v against_o we_o i_o now_o bring_v certain_a reason_n for_o my_o position_n first_o therefore_o music_n be_v rather_o to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o church_n than_o not_o because_o it_o be_v the_o excellent_a invention_n and_o gift_n of_o god_n himself_o ordain_v to_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v their_o cavil_n avail_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o which_o say_v that_o if_o this_o reason_n be_v good_a than_o all_o the_o liberal_a science_n &_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o civil_a law_n and_o all_o good_a and_o honest_a art_n may_v by_o as_o good_a reason_n be_v use_v in_o y_z e_z church_n because_o they_o be_v also_o the_o invention_n &_o good_a gift_n of_o god_n for_o if_o they_o know_v how_o to_o refer_v every_o of_o these_o thing_n to_o their_o neat_a &_o proper_a end_n they_o may_v perceive_v that_o as_o the_o end_n of_o those_o other_o science_n be_v first_o to_o know_v and_o then_o to_o serve_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n so_o the_o vent_n and_o only_a end_n of_o music_n be_v immediate_o the_o set_n forth_o of_o god_n praise_n and_o honour_n a_o second_o reason_n of_o my_o assertion_n be_v because_o music_n with_o the_o concinnity_n of_o her_o sound_n and_o the_o excellency_n of_o harmony_n do_v as_o it_o be_v knit_v &_o join_v we_o unto_o god_n put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o our_o maker_n and_o of_o that_o mutual_a unity_n &_o consent_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v as_o of_o voice_n so_o of_o mind_n in_o god_n church_n and_o congregation_n three_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o reason_n yet_o this_o be_v of_o sufficient_a force_n to_o persuade_v the_o lawful_a use_n of_o music_n in_o that_o as_o a_o pleasant_a bait_n it_o do_v both_o allure_v man_n into_o the_o church_n which_o otherwise_o will_v not_o come_v &_o cause_v they_o which_o be_v there_o to_o continue_v till_o the_o divine_a service_n be_v end_v four_o man_n do_v more_o willing_o hear_v &_o more_o firm_o carry_v away_o with_o they_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o hear_v song_n than_o those_o which_o they_o hear_v bare_o speak_v and_o pronounce_v last_o the_o use_n thereof_o be_v ancient_a and_o of_o great_a continuance_n for_o it_o be_v use_v in_o trajan_n his_o time_n as_o i_o before_o show_v and_o it_o be_v translate_v from_o the_o religious_a of_o the_o heathen_a which_o in_o hymn_n and_o
