without_o 7._o but_o you_o will_v have_v presbyter_n instead_o of_o bishop_n you_o say_v bless_v i_o that_o man_n shall_v quarrel_v about_o word_n so_o it_o be_v plain_a the_o presbyter_n will_v be_v as_o great_a as_o the_o bishop_n if_o they_o can_v and_o both_o alike_o be_v scripture_n name_n of_o office_n and_o which_o many_o judicious_a man_n have_v think_v to_o signify_v the_o same_o thing_n

between_o we_o last_o but_o your_o offence_n be_v not_o regard_v and_o therefore_o too_o you_o be_v further_o offend_v bless_v i_o that_o man_n can_v argue_v thus_o what_o we_o have_v a_o

your_o two_o scruple_n or_o let_v the_o offence_n fall_v on_o the_o least_o in_o number_n i_o say_v to_o this_o dilemma_n no_o discipline_n and_o no_o church_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v but_o as_o of_o necessity_n that_o thing_n shall_v be_v as_o they_o be_v our_o natural_a conclusion_n of_o accommodation_n be_v 1._o that_o though_o all_o these_o pretence_n be_v groundless_a of_o a_o rightful_a

the_o other_o be_v unjust_a to_o they_o in_o their_o needless_a schism_n for_o trifle_n 2._o that_o according_o our_o pageant_o church_n too_o big_a to_o be_v hear_v in_o our_o cross_n in_o baptism_n our_o orthodoxy_n in_o ceremony_n only_o may_v be_v very_o well_o lay_v aside_o for_o though_o when_o man_n be_v offend_v at_o we_o for_o good_a we_o need_v not_o mind_v it_o but_o rather_o in_o pity_n with_o christ_n say_v bless_a be_v he_o that_o be_v not_o offend_v in_o i_o yet_o when_o man_n be_v offend_v at_o indifferency_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n instance_n in_o meat_n offer_v to_o idol_n then_o by_o no_o mean_n may_v we_o lawful_o continue_v to_o keep_v up_o their_o offence_n nay_o 3._o that_o as_o we_o see_v by_o the_o show_n bread_n that_o be_v eat_v by_o david_n and_o his_o

some_o be_v ignorant_a you_o say_v and_o what_o then_o do_v not_o the_o apostle_n own_o some_o for_o disciple_n though_o they_o never_o hear_v even_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 6._o that_o according_o

with_o so_o innocent_a a_o state_n so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o all_o the_o little_a scrupulosity_n which_o have_v so_o long_o confound_v our_o reformation_n will_v in_o a_o very_a short_a

the_o apostle_n that_o which_o have_v bewilder_v man_n here_o have_v be_v 1._o that_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o heedless_a in_o their_o division_n as_o they_o be_v to_o break_v communion_n for_o every_o

afterward_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n to_o see_v a_o whole_a sea_n and_o deluge_n of_o sect_n and_o schism_n break_v in_o upon_o they_o for_o how_o can_v they_o hold_v together_o that_o have_v not_o

service_n as_o in_o cathedral_n and_o chapel_n your_o grandeur_n why_o can_v you_o say_v it_o will_v be_v go_v then_o more_o than_o now_o a_o poor_a church_n have_v no_o chorister_n no_o lecturer_n no_o organ_n no_o altar_n nay_o and_o too_o often_o through_o a_o too_o hard_a impropriation_n no_o service_n neither_o and_o why_o then_o shall_v the_o want_n of_o a_o little_a of_o this_o grandeur_n be_v so_o intolerable_a in_o the_o great_a charity_n to_o weak_a brethren_n that_o a_o little_a necessity_n and_o our_o own_o corruption_n can_v so_o easy_o dispense_v with_o 3._o that_o the_o allowance_n of_o such_o practice_n will_v become_v a_o reflection_n upon_o the_o state_n ay_o and_o a_o very_a good_a one_o too_o for_o none_o can_v think_v any_o ill_a on_o it_o we_o shall_v be_v unite_v and_o firm_a at_o home_n and_o our_o love_n and_o condescension_n praise_v abroad_o and_o sure_o that_o we_o bear_v with_o tender_a conscience_n on_o no_o other_o term_n but_o the_o ancient_n

moderation_n can_v make_v they_o sick_a of_o

that_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n set_v the_o child_n tooth_n on_o edge_n but_o what_o be_v not_o these_o calumny_n false_a and_o have_v we_o not_o reason_n on_o the_o contrary_a to_o be_v even_o
