of_o a_o mess_n of_o pottage_n well_o season_v and_o crumb_v that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a great_a part_n of_o indignity_n to_o call_v the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n the_o pope_n porridge_n be_v prove_v by_o three_o reason_n first_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o matter_n in_o it_o second_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o and_o three_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o law_n that_o have_v be_v act_v for_o the_o maintain_n of_o it_o as_o for_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o if_o you_o look_v well_o upon_o it_o you_o shall_v find_v ground_v first_o upon_o the_o scripture_n yea_o scripture_n itself_o in_o many_o place_n and_o not_o upon_o any_o popish_a mass_n 2._o for_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o wherein_o be_v first_o read_v and_o meditate_v second_o heavenly_a ejaculation_n contain_v

the_o three_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v a_o indignity_n to_o call_v it_o porridge_n because_o they_o have_v be_v establish_v by_o act_n of_o parliament_n viz._n in_o the_o day_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o queen_n elizabeth_n king_n james_z and_o now_o maintain_v by_o our_o gracious_a sovereign_a king_n charles_n and_o therefore_o four_o reason_n may_v be_v add_v that_o it_o be_v a_o indignity_n to_o the_o state_n to_o cast_v a_o aspersion_n upon_o they_o as_o if_o they_o shall_v maintain_v law_n against_o god_n word_n for_o which_o cause_n there_o be_v penalty_n against_o those_o

therefore_o it_o be_v not_o the_o pope_n porridge_n nor_o compose_v out_o of_o the_o mass_n and_o if_o you_o will_v look_v back_o a_o little_a you_o shall_v find_v that_o liturgy_n and_o form_n of_o

lift_v up_o our_o heart_n to_o thou_o o_o lord_n and_o sometime_o amen_n by_o all_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o it_o be_v a_o indignity_n to_o call_v it_o so_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o compose_v by_o the_o fat_a cook_n as_o you_o term_v they_o of_o the_o pope_n kitchen_n but_o by_o learned_a divine_n and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v abolish_v but_o grant_v it_o be_v compose_v out_o of_o the_o masse-boo●_a which_o i_o will_v never_o do_v but_o defy_v it_o be_v it_o therefore_o so_o corrupt_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v abolish_v and_o not_o rather_o correct_v amend_v purcase_o you_o have_v a_o joint_n of_o meat_n which_o i_o know_v you_o love_v well_o and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o a_o place_n of_o two_o taint_v or_o as_o we_o usual_o say_v fly-blown_a will_v you_o because_o of_o this_o cast_v your_o meat_n quite_o away_o and_o never_o eat_v a_o bit_n of_o it_o no_o i_o suppose_v you_o will_v not_o but_o rather_o cut_v out_o that_o which_o be_v taint_v a_o d_o throw_v that_o away_o as_o not_o fit_a to_o be_v eat_v and_o preserve_v the_o rest_n for_o your_o own_o eat_n and_o yet_o the_o common_a prayer_n be_v not_o take_v out_o of_o the_o popish_a mass_n neither_o be_v it_o taint_v nor_o a_o idolworship_n and_o can_v be_v no_o abomination_n to_o offer_v they_o to_o god_n and_o to_o this_o purpose_n your_o proof_n be_v but_o slender_a that_o you_o prove_v that_o our_o prayer_n be_v abomination_n indeed_o if_o they_o be_v direct_v to_o any_o idol_n saint_n or_o angel_n and_o not_o to_o the_o true_a and_o ever_o live_a god_n they_o then_o be_v idolatrous_a prayer_n but_o be_v direct_v intend_v and_o god_n glory_n only_o aim_v at_o it_o be_v a_o foul_a abuse_n and_o deserve_v the_o lie_n to_o say_v they_o be_v profane_a and_o full_a of_o popery_n therefore_o raise_v no_o more_o rabshakah_n like_a but_o lay_v thy_o hand_n at_o thy_o mouth_n and_o be_v silent_a for_o this_o kind_n of_o zeal_n be_v like_o a_o fire_n that_o will_v burn_v up_o all_o godly_a discipline_n and_o bring_v soul_n even_o to_o despair_v if_o god_n mercy_n do_v not_o exceed_v his_o work_n as_o for_o baptism_n matrimony_n visitation_n of_o the_o sick_a consecration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n collect_v epistle_n and_o gospel_n you_o say_v they_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o masse-book_n which_o be_v false_a and_o that_o they_o be_v unlawful_a and_o invention_n of_o man_n then_o i_o pr●y_v show_v a_o better_a way_n or_o form_n that_o they_o may_v be_v perform_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n god_n do_v institute_v marriage_n but_o we_o never_o read_v

the_o church_n to_o prescribe_v a_o form_n how_o to_o do_v they_o provide_v that_o they_o do_v they_o according_a to_o his_o word_n as_o near_o as_o they_o can_v indeed_o in_o these_o day_n of_o division_n there_o be_v many_o that_o baptise_v bury_v and_o marry_o etc._n etc._n after_o another_o manner_n than_o the_o common_a prayer_n enjoin_v but_o what_o be_v their_o manner_n my_o think_v they_o come_v short_a of_o perform_v they_o so_o well_o as_o the_o prayer_n book_n command_v for_o in_o baptism_n ther●s_v scarce_o any_o prayer_n make_v for_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o child_n into_o the_o congregation_n and_o for_o its_o growth_n in_o grace_n and_o to_o perform_v these_o duty_n a_o stable_a b●rne_n or_o chamber_n be_v more_o fit_a than_o a_o church_n and_o i_o think_v i_o shall_v not_o lie_v if_o i_o do_v say_v a_o river_n as_o for_o marriage_n th●r's_n little_a say_v wherefore_o it_o be_v ordain_v for_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o come_v into_o the_o church_n they_o be_v
