it_o only_o be_v their_o duty_n it_o make_v they_o not_o a_o church_n but_o only_o prove_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v one_o so_o far_o mr._n baxter_n and_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o in_o pursuance_n of_o canon_n and_o statute_n law_n the_o parish_n be_v de_fw-fr facto_fw-la settle_v as_o part_n of_o a_o diocesane_a church_n and_o whoever_o join_v themselves_o unto_o the_o parish_n assembly_n as_o by_o law_n require_v consent_v to_o be_v of_o the_o parish_n assembly_n as_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o diocesane_a church_n this_o do_v every_o parish_n minster_n who_o swear_v

he_o will_v not_o endeavour_v on_o any_o pretence_n whatever_o the_o alteration_n of_o it_o but_o to_o form_v the_o parish_n assembly_n into_o a_o complete_a particular_a church_n be_v to_o make_v a_o substantial_a alteration_n in_o the_o diocesane_a constitution_n beside_o the_o vestery_n who_o as_o mr._n baxter_n say_v do_v after_o a_o sort_n represent_v the_o parish_n assembly_n be_v also_o

whatever_o consent_n there_o be_v between_o the_o minister_n and_o people_n it_o must_v be_v suppose_v to_o be_v no_o other_o than_o what_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o diocesane_a rule_n i._n e._n to_o be_v part_n of_o the_o diocesane_a church_n take_v none_o for_o their_o pastor_n but_o the_o diocesane_a bishop_n 2._o this_o parish-assemble_o do_v not_o only_o want_v consent_n to_o make_v it_o
