a_o reasonable_a motion_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o such_o of_o the_o clergy_n as_o be_v now_o question_v in_o parliament_n for_o their_o place_n together_o with_o the_o conference_n betwixt_o the_o two_o great_a associate_n william_n arch_a bishop_n of_o canterbury_n and_o thomas_n late_a earl_n of_o strafford_n print_v in_o the_o unfortunate_a year_n to_o priest_n 1641._o vouchsafe_v great_a lord_n with_o patience_n for_o to_o hear_v our_o just_a request_n which_o we_o present_v you_o here_o it_o be_v say_v abroad_o that_o you_o the_o church_n will_v free_v of_o sundry_a fault_n which_o in_o the_o same_o there_o be_v but_o that_o it_o be_v fear_v and_o you_o perhaps_o conceive_v a_o change_n of_o thing_n we_o priest_n will_v not_o receive_v but_o will_v stand_v out_o for_o thing_n we_o former_a have_v and_o do_v they_o still_o though_o you_o shall_v think_v they_o bad_a but_o we_o do_v hope_n by_o this_o to_o make_v it_o clear_a that_o no_o such_o thing_n of_o we_o you_o need_v to_o fear_v for_o we_o like_o scot_n will_v not_o such_o thing_n put_v by_o as_o be_v impose_v by_o sovereign_a majesty_n nor_o be_v we_o like_o the_o puritanish_a sect_n who_o will_v do_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o word_n direct_v we_o never_o yet_o have_v show_v ourselves_o so_o ill_o but_o what_o the_o state_n enjoin_v we_o do_v it_o still_o and_o that_o your_o honour_n may_v be_v sure_a of_o this_o we_o can_v produce_v the_o age_n past_a for_o we_o you_o know_v king_n edward_n do_v the_o mass_n put_v down_o and_o set_v the_o service_n book_n up_o in_o the_o room_n we_o then_o the_o clergy_n of_o the_o land_n throughout_o forsake_v the_o old_a and_o take_v the_o new_a up_o when_o he_o be_v dead_a and_o mary_n have_v the_o crown_n then_o up_o go_v mass_n and_o service_n it_o come_v down_o yet_o we_o sir_n priest_n as_o man_n of_o quiet_a spirit_n obey_v the_o prince_n and_o turn_v unto_o our_o vomit_n some_o few_o year_n after_o mary_n be_v dead_a the_o crown_n be_v set_v upon_o her_o sister_n head_n now_o she_o again_o put_v down_o the_o idol_n mass_n and_o have_v the_o service_n as_o before_o it_o be_v to_o this_o our_o father_n priest_n do_v then_o submit_v though_o most_o perhaps_o do_v mind_n it_o be_v not_o fit_a yet_o what_o the_o state_n do_v think_v for_o to_o be_v best_a they_o question_v not_o but_o do_v it_o and_o therein_o rest_n what_o they_o have_v do_v we_o mean_v the_o like_a to_o do_v conform_v ourselves_o to_o thing_n confirm_v by_o you_o if_o you_o put_v down_o our_o bishop_n from_o their_o chair_n their_o liturgy_n and_o court_n and_o other_o gear_n what_o next_o by_o you_o shall_v be_v enact_v then_o shall_v be_v observe_v by_o we_o the_o clergy_n man_n but_o if_o you_o please_v to_o have_v they_o yet_o stand_v still_o we_o be_v content_a and_o yield_v to_o they_o we_o will_v for_o government_n and_o worship_n what_o care_v we_o or_o rite_n and_o order_n what_o in_o church_n there_o be_v our_o care_n be_v only_o for_o to_o keep_v from_o want_n for_o conscience_n here_o we_o leave_v to_o puritan_n and_o this_o we_o judge_v to_o be_v no_o wise_a man_n case_n to_o deem_v his_o conscience_n better_o than_o his_o place_n the_o canon_n late_o which_o be_v on_o we_o impose_v by_o you_o be_v think_v not_o fit_a for_o to_o be_v use_v yet_o we_o sir_n priest_n do_v stand_v so_o much_o in_o awe_n as_o that_o we_o mean_v to_o yield_v unto_o their_o law_n and_o ere_o that_o we_o will_v leave_v our_o gainful_a trade_n we_o will_v stoop_v to_o all_o what_o ere_o by_o man_n be_v make_v therefore_o brave_a lord_n as_o you_o in_o court_n now_o sit_v so_o let_v religion_n be_v as_o you_o think_v fit_a we_o take_v no_o thought_n this_o way_n about_o god_n will_n but_o how_o to_o keep_v our_o benefice_n still_o and_o

all_o that_o still_o we_o may_v enjoy_v our_o belly_n cheer_n and_o idle_o live_v without_o all_o work_n or_o care_n and_o if_o your_o honour_n will_v but_o grant_v we_o this_o we_o be_v content_a
