church_n can_v afford_v they_o no_o precedent_n for_o this_o and_o i_o question_v whether_o the_o roman_a cruelty_n ever_o come_v up_o to_o it_o but_o of_o all_o this_o there_o be_v not_o a_o word_n of_o excuse_n the_o reason_n may_v be_v easy_o guess_v our_o author_n come_v next_o to_o the_o business_n of_o the_o seven_o bishop_n and_o what_o he_o say_v on_o this_o head_n be_v as_o lame_a as_o what_o he_o say_v on_o the_o former_a first_o he_o pretend_v that_o the_o sole_a design_n of_o have_v the_o declaration_n read_v in_o the_o church_n be_v that_o all_o may_v be_v assure_v of_o the_o

before_o it_o be_v to_o be_v publish_v in_o the_o church_n of_o london_n this_o be_v otherwise_o if_o we_o will_v believe_v the_o king_n who_o at_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o petition_n to_o he_o tell_v they_o he_o have_v hear_v of_o their_o design_n before_o but_o can_v not_o believe_v it_o how_o can_v the_o bishop_n help_v that_o they_o then_o undeceive_v he_o this_o he_o say_v be_v excuse_v by_o wait_v for_o a_o welsh_a bishop_n but_o by_o his_o favour_n i_o have_v another_o excuse_n which_o be_v that_o the_o king_n appoint_v the_o read_n of_o the_o declaration_n so_o soon_o after_o the_o order_n for_o that_o purpose_n that_o the_o clergy_n have_v too_o little_a time_n allow_v they_o to_o consider_v of_o so_o great_a a_o matter_n the_o order_n of_o council_n for_o read_v the_o declaration_n bear_v date_n the_o four_o of_o may_n and_o be_v publish_v in_o the_o gazette_n the_o seven_o and_o direct_v the_o declaration_n to_o be_v read_v in_o london_n on_o the_o 20_o so_o that_o the_o bishop_n be_v but_o ten_o day_n consult_v if_o they_o have_v take_v less_o time_n the_o act_n will_v have_v be_v censure_v as_o rash_a and_o that_o they_o have_v not_o well_o consider_v of_o it_o but_o if_o the_o king_n have_v not_o long_o enough_o time_n to_o deliberate_v on_o the_o matter_n or_o to_o have_v signify_v his_o pleasure_n therein_o to_o the_o city_n before_o sunday_n yet_o sure_o he_o may_v have_v be_v content_a with_o the_o sinful_a compliance_n of_o those_o that_o do_v read_v it_o the_o first_o sunday_n and_o have_v time_n enough_o to_o signify_v his_o

put_v the_o proof_n on_o the_o king_n that_o they_o deliver_v their_o petition_n know_v that_o none_o be_v then_o present_a but_o themselves_o and_o insist_v thereon_o until_o by_o the_o candour_n of_o the_o archbishop_n it_o be_v own_v those_o that_o will_v look_v into_o their_o trial_n will_v see_v what_o reason_n they_o have_v for_o so_o do_v and_o will_v be_v able_a to_o judge_v whether_o it_o be_v generous_a in_o the_o king_n to_o make_v evidence_n of_o what_o pass_v at_o the_o board_n which_o passage_n we_o shall_v find_v misrepresent_v by_o the_o author_n if_o we_o look_v into_o page_n 91._o of_o the_o bishop_n trial_n where_o mr._n musgrave_n on_o his_o oath_n give_v a_o account_n of_o what_o pass_v there_o he_o say_v that_o when_o the_o paper_n be_v read_v they_o be_v ask_v
