A82002	A sober and temperate discourse, concerning the interest of words in prayer, the just antiquity and pedigree of liturgies, or forms of prayer in churches : with a view of the state of the church, when they were first composed, or imposed. Together with a discovery of the weakness of the grounds upon which they were first brought in, or upon which Bishop Gawden hath lately discoursed, the necessity of a liturgie, or the inconveniency of altering the English liturgie, the utility of church musick, and the lawfulness of ceremonies : in which are mixed reasons justifying those godly ministers, who forbear the use of the Common-prayer, against the late out-cryes of the said bishop. / By H.D. M.A.	H. D. (Henry Dawbeny); Collinges, John, 1623-1690, attributed name.	1661 (1661)	Wing D449; Thomason E1086_14; ESTC R208152	100,305	119

we_o need_v not_o have_v trouble_v ourselves_o with_o a_o answer_n he_o not_o do_v this_o we_o must_v examine_v they_o all_o suppose_v that_o the_o dr._n take_v all_o these_o for_o conclusive_a argument_n in_o the_o case_n able_a to_o command_v reasonable_a and_o religious_a soul_n to_o this_o conformity_n iii_o for_o the_o pretend_a antiquity_n of_o liturgy_n his_o lordship_n may_v gather_v from_o what_o be_v already_o say_v that_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v any_o such_o thing_n nor_o have_v he_o speak_v one_o word_n to_o prove_v it_o we_o live_v not_o in_o pythagoras_n his_o school_n have_v not_o learned_a to_o submit_v to_o a_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d we_o desire_v he_o to_o show_v we_o any_o authority_n for_o a_o liturgy_n within_o the_o first_o three_o century_n iv_o as_o to_o what_o he_o say_v p._n 2._o that_o his_o most_o sacred_a majesty_n in_o his_o gracious_a declaration_n have_v not_o dispense_v with_o the_o legal_a moral_a obediential_a obligation_n we_o

be_v it_o the_o dr._n have_v two_o thing_n to_o do_v 1._o to_o prove_v that_o the_o common-prayer-book_n vulgar_o to_o be_v have_v be_v establish_v by_o any_o law_n of_o england_n we_o hear_v it_o be_v open_o deny_v in_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o in_o the_o last_o parliament_n and_o we_o can_v find_v any_o law_n to_o that_o purpose_n the_o law_n 1_o ed._n 5_o &_o 6._o ed._n 6._o &_o 1_o

declaration_n as_o it_o can_v make_v a_o oblige_a law_n so_o it_o can_v dissolve_v the_o obligation_n of_o it_o but_o where_o be_v the_o law_n 2._o if_o it_o can_v be_v find_v how_o far_o do_v it_o

oblige_v our_o conscience_n and_o be_v to_o learn_v that_o any_o example_n oblige_v we_o but_o those_o of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o therefore_o for_o what_o he_o tell_v we_o p._n 3._o of_o some_o minister_n that_o have_v all_o this_o time_n use_v the_o liturgy_n other_o that_o late_o have_v reassume_v the_o use_n of_o it_o it_o signify_v nothing_o to_o we_o who_o live_v by_o the_o

sin_n in_o it_o vi_o he_o urge_v it_o upon_o we_o next_o from_o a_o ingenuous_a argument_n viz._n gratitude_n to_o his_o majesty_n for_o his_o indulgence_n to_o which_o we_o answer_v that_o we_o with_o all_o humility_n acknowledge_v his_o most_o excellent_a majesty_n gracious_a indulgence_n in_o it_o and_o in_o point_n of_o gratitude_n be_v willing_a to_o serve_v his_o majesty_n with_o all_o that_o be_v dear_a unto_o we_o our_o soul_n only_o except_v which_o we_o know_v he_o desire_v not_o in_o token_n of_o thankfulness_n to_o his_o majesty_n we_o be_v ready_a to_o part_v with_o any_o part_n of_o our_o livelyhood_n and_o shall_v in_o that_o vie_n with_o those_o who_o pretend_v most_o to_o his_o majesty_n service_n though_o many_o of_o we_o in_o several_a place_n have_v no_o

prosecute_v open_o tell_v the_o people_n that_o the_o king_n declaration_n be_v no_o law_n though_o they_o also_o know_v that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n for_o the_o common-prayer_n yet_o we_o have_v a_o experiment_n of_o his_o gracious_a majesty_n good_a will_n to_o we_o his_o poor_a subject_n and_o shall_v be_v willing_a by_o any_o way_n which_o our_o conscience_n tell_v we_o will_v not_o be_v sin_n to_o we_o to_o let_v his_o majesty_n know_v our_o gratitude_n but_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o his_o majesty_n be_v more_o charitable_a to_o his_o people_n soul_n then_o to_o desire_v that_o to_o express_v their_o thankfulness_n to_o he_o they_o shall_v commit_v the_o least_o sin_n against_o god_n and_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o excuse_v we_o from_o the_o bishop_n rash_a charge_v we_o with_o

p._n 23.31_o to_o dazzle_v people_n eye_n at_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o liturgy_n they_o be_v of_o no_o use_n at_o all_o for_o beside_o that_o if_o he_o will_v have_v make_v his_o word_n good_a he_o must_v have_v prove_v 1._o that_o the_o common-prayer_n have_v in_o it_o a_o perfect_a confession_n of_o such_o sin_n as_o all_o be_v guilty_a of_o original_a actual_a
