church_n of_o rome_n be_v almost_o deadly_a sick_a of_o such_o inward_a disease_n his_o majesty_n wonder_v most_o illustrious_a cardinal_n when_o he_o read_v in_o your_o epistle_n that_o the_o

which_o hereupon_o ensue_v for_o his_o majesty_n do_v honour_v the_o bless_a martyr_n and_o other_o saint_n which_o now_o reign_v with_o christ_n the_o head_n of_o both_o church_n triumphant_a and_o

he_o know_v no_o reason_n whereby_o any_o man_n can_v promise_v or_o warrant_v we_o that_o they_o hear_v our_o prayer_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v account_v they_o as_o our_o household_n god_n and_o

neither_o do_v the_o king_n deny_v it_o yet_o this_o be_v a_o testimony_n of_o the_o decay_n of_o ancient_a simplicity_n and_o of_o a_o evil_a then_o grow_v but_o in_o no_o respect_n comparable_a with_o that_o which_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n at_o this_o day_n be_v open_o practise_v tolerate_a and_o defend_v last_o although_o the_o holy_a father_n do_v allow_v the_o custom_n of_o that_o

and_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o four_o objection_n against_o the_o english_a liturgy_n now_o his_o majesty_n commend_v your_o judgement_n that_o among_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o you_o dislike_v in_o his_o religion_n you_o have_v make_v choice_n especial_o of_o those_o which_o concern_v matter_n of_o church_n assembly_n and_o divine_a service_n for_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o faithful_a

about_o this_o why_o may_v not_o all_o europe_n communicate_v together_o only_o grant_v a_o liberty_n to_o schoole-divines_a with_o moderation_n to_o debate_v other_o opinion_n which_o be_v a_o

the_o want_n of_o these_o four_o thing_n in_o the_o english_a liturgy_n you_o think_v there_o be_v just_a cause_n that_o they_o which_o use_v it_o shall_v neither_o be_v account_v nor_o call_v

godly_a man_n have_v observe_v so_o many_o thing_n manifest_o repugnant_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o ancient_a catholic_a faith_n which_o thing_n nevertheless_o the_o pope_n have_v rather_o maintain_v then_o reform_v when_o the_o truth_n now_o shine_v so_o clear_o and_o here_o although_o his_o majesty_n can_v easy_o rehearse_v many_o grievous_a abuse_n in_o the_o roman_a liturgy_n yet_o it_o please_v he_o to_o name_v only_o four_o which_o he_o oppose_v to_o the_o other_o four_o name_v by_o you_o the_o first_o be_v the_o use_n of_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n contrary_a to_o the_o precept_n of_o s._n paul_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n to_o who_o in_o their_o assembly_n nothing_o be_v dearer_o than_o the_o good_a and_o edification_n of_o the_o hearer_n wherefore_o the_o father_n provide_v the_o translation_n of_o scripture_n into_o all_o language_n and_o as_o epiphanius_n note_v in_o the_o end_n of_o his_o three_o book_n they_o have_v
