reason_n to_o complain_v for_o as_o to_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o presbyterian_o for_o reformation_n in_o church_n government_n in_o the_o whole_a first_o there_o be_v much_o self-seeking_a for_o to_o what_o end_n be_v it_o motion_v to_o have_v parish-minister_n raise_v up_o to_o a_o equal_a height_n as_o it_o be_v of_o power_n and_o authority_n with_o the_o bishop_n but_o that_o they_o and_o the_o bishop_n together_o keep_v from_o the_o people_n their_o right_n and_o liberty_n in_o the_o gospel_n may_v equal_o lord_n it_o and_o do_v what_o they_o please_v without_o control_n but_o our_o hope_n be_v that_o the_o parliament_n be_v man_n in_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v wisdom_n and_o understanding_n will_v for_o their_o brethren_n and_o companion_n sake_n yea_o and_o for_o their_o

persecutor_n of_o the_o saint_n as_o the_o prelate_n former_o have_v be_v and_o so_o instead_o of_o one_o lordly_a domineer_a bishop_n in_o a_o diocese_n we_o shall_v then_o have_v one_o in_o every_o parish_n and_o in_o some_o more_o to_o oppress_v and_o suppress_v all_o such_o as_o walk_v up_o to_o their_o light_n more_o close_o and_o conscionable_o in_o all_o god_n way_n and_o what_o we_o speak_v we_o speak_v no_o more_o than_o what_o we_o have_v have_v woeful_a experience_n of_o and_o can_v make_v good_a by_o proof_n but_o in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o their_o mix_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n together_o motion_v for_o a_o discipline_n which_o be_v a_o very_a hotchpotch_n a_o gallimaufry_n compound_v of_o episcopacy_n presbytery_n and_o
