idolater_n in_o the_o earth_n 12._o those_o that_o abhor_v idolatry_n as_o much_o as_o they_o do_v beggary_n and_o folly_n can_v not_o but_o hate_n and_o abhor_v the_o badge_n of_o idolatry_n as_o much_o as_o the_o badge_n of_o folly_n and_o beggary_n and_o therefore_o can_v not_o but_o account_v that_o priestly_a attire_n that_o be_v enjoin_v unto_o we_o by_o our_o prelate_n a_o apparel_n more_o unbeseeming_a the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n than_o a_o cloak_n with_o a_o thousand_o patch_n or_o a_o coat_n with_o four_o ellebowe_n for_o beggary_n and_o folly_n be_v judgement_n and_o not_o sin_n the_o note_n of_o beggary_n and_o folly_n can_v not_o be_v so_o odious_a in_o a_o spiritual_a eye_n as_o the_o note_n of_o idolatry_n 13._o if_o it_o be_v deny_v that_o the_o apparel_n

2._o as_o a_o coat_n of_o divers_a colour_n be_v a_o fool_n coat_n notwithstanding_o that_o joseph_n one_o of_o the_o 12._o patriarch_n wear_v one_o so_o a_o white_a linen_n garment_n be_v a_o

in_o matter_n of_o ceremony_n if_o all_o the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n beside_o our_o own_o in_o england_n and_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o sufficient_a pastor_n of_o our_o own_o church_n be_v

14._o a_o corrupt_a and_o scandalous_a ceremony_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o dangerous_a and_o scandalous_a to_o other_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o it_o come_v

that_o be_v a_o christian_n will_v challenge_v authority_n to_o destroy_v the_o soul_n of_o any_o man_n and_o therefore_o he_o can_v upon_o his_o own_o mere_a will_n &_o pleasure_n without_o sin_n against_o god_n enjoin_v any_o thing_n not_o require_v by_o god_n that_o evident_o tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o any_o man_n soul_n and_o those_o subject_n that_o be_v ready_a to_o perform_v
