of_o the_o church_n no_o such_o observation_n can_v be_v make_v from_o capellus_n his_o word_n for_o he_o only_o speak_v of_o the_o liturgy_n that_o be_v introduce_v by_o the_o first_o author_n of_o

the_o place_n capell_n mention_v nothing_o be_v contain_v onerous_a or_o of_o little_a edification_n the_o divine_n of_o king_n henry_n the_o 8_o be_v author_n of_o a_o reformation_n their_o liturgy_n

without_o egregious_a contradiction_n to_o his_o own_o principle_n for_o he_o have_v say_v just_a before_o that_o from_o the_o beginning_n the_o formula_n be_v most_o brief_a and_o most_o simple_a which_o without_o pomp_n and_o train_n and_o manifold_a variety_n consist_v of_o a_o few_o prayer_n and_o lesson_n out_o of_o the_o psalm_n and_o other_o scripture_n now_o certain_o if_o our_o

that_o the_o many_o reason_n for_o which_o the_o presbyterian_o have_v reject_v the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n be_v very_a light_n and_o almost_o of_o no_o moment_n at_o all_o capell_n say_v not_o so_o but_o
that_o the_o reason_n for_o which_o it_o seem_v to_o some_o scrupulous_a man_n that_o the_o liturgy_n use_v by_o their_o church_n be_v not_o only_o to_o be_v disapprove_v but_o also_o to_o be_v plain_o abrogate_a and_o whole_o to_o be_v abolish_v and_o obliterated_a be_v light_a and_o almost_o of_o no_o moment_n so_o that_o if_o any_o man_n do_v only_o improbare_fw-la have_v no_o design_n plain_o to_o abrogate_v and_o whole_o to_o obliterate_v the_o liturgy_n compose_v by_o our_o first_o reformer_n he_o may_v have_v reason_n good_a enough_o for_o aught_o capell_n affirm_v to_o the_o

generation_n of_o man_n capell_n be_v indeed_o a_o man_n who_o be_v free_a enough_o in_o his_o censure_n of_o any_o one_o whether_o presbyterian_a or_o episcopal_a that_o stand_v in_o his_o way_n not_o sear_v to_o throw_v dirt_n in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o great_a hooker_n himself_o as_o appear_v in_o his_o thesis_n about_o feast_n or_o holy_a day_n but_o i_o will_v fain_o understand_v how_o the_o presbyterian_o be_v the_o know_a author_n of_o the_o directory_n most_o of_o those_o who_o be_v call_v to_o give_v advice_n about_o the_o directory_n be_v when_o call_v to_o give_v their_o

whether_o i_o can_v make_v some_o true_a observation_n upon_o capellus_n his_o thesis_n about_o liturgy_n in_o do_v which_o i_o shall_v follow_v the_o edition_n of_o saumur_n 1651._o 1._o he_o say_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o apostle_n and_o apostolical_a man_n have_v no_o prescript_n form_n of_o liturgy_n and_o that_o they_o never_o do_v write_v and_o leave_v or_o prescribe_v to_o their_o
