to_o make_v a_o goodly_a outward_a show_n etc._n etc._n which_o it_o right_o account_n a_o mock_v and_o blaspheme_v of_o god_n holy_a ordinance_n it_o come_v at_o length_n to_o blame_v those_o who_o

either_o pious_a benefactor_n or_o people_n ability_n do_v reach_v to_o maintain_v they_o and_o this_o continue_a so_o throughout_o her_o long_a and_o happy_a reign_n and_o afterward_o in_o the_o

house_n ii_o it_o be_v also_o to_o be_v consider_v that_o if_o we_o allow_v this_o reason_v of_o the_o answerer_n from_o the_o homily_n against_o the_o use_n of_o organ_n by_o the_o same_o we_o must_v argue_v against_o sing_v too_o for_o that_o be_v express_o mention_v with_o it_o since_o we_o can_v hear_v the_o like_o pipe_v sing_v chant_v and_o play_v upon_o the_o organ_n that_o we_o can_v before_o where_o the_o superstitious_a and_o corrupt_a use_n of_o either_o sing_v or_o play_v upon_o the_o organ_n be_v only_o adjudge_v by_o the_o church_n to_o be_v take_v away_o and_o not_o the_o use_n of_o either_o or_o both_o of_o they_o to_o be_v abolish_v and_o indeed_o i_o think_v not_o only_o from_o thence_o but_o well_o nigh_o as_o much_o may_v be_v object_v on_o other_o account_n against_o vocal_a as_o against_o instrumental-musick_n in_o the_o church_n since_o both_o be_v equal_o capable_a of_o abuse_n but_o yet_o both_o of_o they_o may_v be_v of_o excellent_a use_n if_o grave_a discreet_a and_o regular_a and_o of_o singular_a advantage_n for_o the_o promote_a the_o praise_n of_o god_n and_o the_o edification_n of_o his_o people_n when_o skilful_o join_v together_o and_o then_o iii_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o this_o matter_n with_o what_o i_o have_v say_v above_o as_o will_v appear_v by_o consult_v the_o

retain_v and_o in_o our_o church_n comely_a practise_v among_o which_o thing_n our_o church_n do_v reckon_v the_o use_n of_o the_o organ_n wherewith_o god_n be_v honour_v and_o his_o people_n edify_v and_o for_o those_o reason_n be_v it_o decent_o retain_v and_o in_o our_o church_n comely_a practise_v both_o at_o the_o reformation_n and_o in_o queen_n elizabeth_n time_n when_o it_o flourish_v as_o much_o as_o ever_o and_o ever_o since_o when_o it_o do_v it_o be_v very_o strange_a now_o that_o the_o church_n practice_n which_o be_v so_o clear_a in_o this_o matter_n shall_v be_v so_o strange_o

far_o that_o it_o can_v be_v the_o profess_a judgement_n of_o our_o church_n to_o condemn_v the_o use_n of_o organ_n in_o it_o as_o the_o answerer_n positive_o aver_v it_o be_v from_o the_o homily_n although_o the_o obsolete_a expression_n of_o its_o be_v deliver_v from_o superstition_n and_o abuse_n in_o the_o place_n of_o prayer_n seem_v repugnant_a to_o its_o constant_a practice_n take_v
