not_o be_v husbandman_n craft_n man_n etc_n etc_n &_o yet_o may_v have_v civil_a office_n i_o think_v far_o otherwise_o that_o although_o neither_o be_v lawful_a yet_o the_o one_o be_v more_o

where_o the_o ecclesiastical_a office_n be_v immediate_o and_o only_o bend_v to_o procure_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n and_o in_o that_o signification_n of_o

whereas_o m._n doctor_n say_v that_o the_o office_n of_o a_o commissyoner_n be_v ecclesiastical_a because_o it_o handle_v ecclesiastical_a cause_n i_o marvel_v that_o he_o be_v so_o ignorant_a that_o

of_o every_o such_o cause_n according_a as_o the_o word_n of_o god_n define_v of_o it_o which_o be_v a_o thing_n common_a as_o well_o unto_o the_o magistrate_n as_o unto_o the_o minister_n and_o wherein_o the_o minister_n because_o he_o ought_v to_o be_v most_o ready_a aught_o if_o need_v be_v consult_v with_o a_o other_o of_o master_n doctor_n reason_n be_v that_z as_o king_n do_v serve_v

as_o to_o make_v they_o and_o as_o if_o the_o magistrate_n be_v not_o therefore_o call_v a_o speak_a law_n because_o by_o execute_v they_o he_o do_v cause_n the_o law_n after_o a_o fashion_n to_o

with_o we_o the_o people_n be_v at_o make_v of_o the_o law_n which_o may_v not_o meddle_v with_o the_o execution_n of_o they_o and_o if_o m._n doctor_n say_v that_o he_o mean_v not_o hereby_o to_o

no_o similitude_n as_o for_o elie_n and_o samuel_n they_o be_v extraordinary_a example_n which_o may_v thereby_o appear_v for_o that_o both_o these_o office_n first_o meet_v in_o melchisedech_n &_o afterward_o in_o moses_n be_v by_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n sever_v when_o as_o the_o lord_n take_v from_o moses_n be_v so_o wise_a &_o godly_a a_o man_n the_o priesthood_n &_o give_v it_o to_o aaron_n and_o to_o his_o successor_n and_o so_o for_o so_o much_o as_o when_o the_o lord_n will_v polish_a his_o church_n &_o make_v it_o famous_a &_o renown_a in_o the_o world_n he_o give_v this_o order_n it_o appear_v that_o he_o will_v have_v this_o to_o be_v a_o perpetual_a rule_n unto_o his_o church_n and_o by_o so_o much_o it_o be_v the_o clear_a for_o that_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o tarry_v until_o moses_n death_n but_o take_v the_o priesthood_n away_o from_o moses_n which_o be_v a_o man_n as_o able_a to_o execute_v both_o as_z either_o elie_n or_o samuel_n and_o this_o may_v be_v also_o easy_o see_v for_o that_o in_o a_o manner_n always_o where_o there_o be_v any_o good_a and_o stay_a estate_n of_o the_o church_n these_o office_n be_v minister_v by_o several_a person_n and_o then_o meet_v &_o be_v mingle_v when_o the_o estate_n be_v very_o ruinous_a and_o miserable_a and_o if_o this_o be_v a_o good_a reason_n to_o prove_v that_o minister_n may_v exercise_v civil_a office_n it_o be_v as_o good_a a_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o prince_n may_v preach_v and_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n for_o if_o the_o minister_n may_v exercise_v civil_a office_n because_o elie_n and_o samuel_n be_v minister_n do_v so_o the_o prince_n and_o judge_n may_v preach_v the_o word_n and_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n because_o elie_n and_o samuel_n be_v prince_n and_o judge_n do_v so_o and_o so_o we_o see_v how_o m._n doctor_n go_v about_o to_o defend_v one_o confusion_n bring_v in_o a_o other_o as_o for_o elias_n kill_v the_o false_a prophet_n and_o our_o saviour_n christ_n whip_n out_o of_o the_o temple_n it_o be_v strange_a that_o master_n doctor_n will_v allege_v they_o as_z thing_n to_o be_v follow_v when_o he_o may_v as_o well_o teach_v that_o we_o may_v call_v for_o fire_n from_o heaven_n as_o elias_n do_v and_o be_v demand_v answer_v nothing_o as_z our_o saviour_n do_v as_o to_o follow_v these_o action_n which_o be_v most_o singular_a and_o

fisher_n and_o terrible_n maker_n because_o 3._o peter_n and_o paul_n be_v minister_n do_v fish_n and_o make_v tent_n and_o true_o these_o be_v not_o so_o extraordinary_a and_o from_o the_o general_a
