archbishop_n bancroft'_v work_v so_o then_o either_o this_o be_v a_o loud_a untruth_n if_o our_o prelate_n do_v not_o so_o practice_v against_o they_o or_o if_o it_o be_v truth_n our_o bishop_n have_v

therefore_o if_o the_o prelate_n of_o england_n have_v get_v a_o opportunity_n and_o a_o congruity_n of_o spirit_n and_o power_n to_o cooperate_v which_o yet_o be_v not_o so_o they_o have_v be_v

who_o weakness_n in_o resist_v they_o have_v before_o experience_v in_o novation_n of_o government_n and_o of_o some_o point_n of_o worship_n and_o rushw._n therefore_o england_n conform_v to_o rome_n even_o in_o those_o matter_n wherein_o england_n have_v separate_v from_o rome_n ever_o since_o the_o time_n of_o reformation_n these_o man_n out_o of_o doubt_n have_v or_o take_v on_o they_o to_o

as_o for_o the_o reason_n which_o be_v give_v why_o we_o begin_v with_o scotland_n namely_o because_o we_o have_v experience_n of_o their_o weakness_n in_o resist_a novation_n of_o government_n and_o of_o some_o point_n of_o worship_n i_o know_v not_o what_o they_o mean_v by_o their_o weakness_n in_o resist_v unless_o it_o be_v that_o they_o do_v not_o prevail_v against_o king_n james_n of_o

which_o they_o style_v novation_n in_o some_o point_n of_o worship_n and_o if_o this_o be_v that_o which_o they_o mean_v there_o be_v no_o novation_n in_o the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o and_o for_o their_o weakness_n in_o resist_v you_o may_v see_v what_o it_o be_v for_o no_o soon_o have_v they_o get_v the_o opportunity_n which_o they_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o codicil_n but_o

make_v use_v of_o the_o same_o opportunity_n to_o cry_v down_o the_o bishop_n and_o church-government_n in_o england_n as_o you_o will_v see_v by_o that_o
say_v that_o i_o do_v often_o wish_v from_o my_o heart_n that_o his_o majesty_n have_v keep_v the_o army_n which_o he_o have_v at_o barwick_n together_o but_o eight_o or_o ten_o day_n long_o and_o that_o i_o do_v not_o doubt_n but_o that_o if_o he_o have_v so_o do_v he_o may_v have_v have_v more_o honourable_a condition_n of_o his_o scottish_a subject_n this_o i_o say_v and_o more_o or_o

to_o observe_v my_o own_o word_n and_o remember_v they_o because_o i_o see_v some_o lord_n at_o the_o table_n touch_v with_o they_o perhaps_o in_o their_o own_o particular_n nor_o be_v i_o alone_o

only_o and_o my_o lord_n do_v far_a fair_o acknowledge_v that_o this_o be_v the_o brownist_n error_n to_o conclude_v no_o church_n in_o be_v because_o it_o have_v many_o defect_n and_o gross_a corruption_n in_o it_o to_o hinder_v its_o well-being_n so_o then_o my_o lord_n here_o grant_v two_o thing_n first_o that_o to_o hold_v there_o be_v no_o true_a church_n in_o england_n no_o true_a ministry_n no_o true_a worship_n which_o depend_v one_o upon_o another_o but_o that_o all_o be_v antichristian_a be_v a_o error_n and_o second_o that_o it_o be_v the_o brownist_n error_n how_o and_o how_o far_o these_o three_o no_o true_a church_n no_o true_a ministry_n no_o true_a worship_n depend_v one_o upon_o another_o and_o in_o what_o case_n it_o may_v in_o some_o exigent_n be_v otherways_o i_o will_v not_o now_o dispute_v nor_o divert_v from_o the_o main_a business_n 1._o first_o then_o if_o it_o be_v a_o error_n to_o say_v there_o be_v no_o true_a church_n no_o true_a ministry_n no_o true_a worship_n in_o england_n then_o i_o hope_v it_o will_v be_v find_v truth_n to_o say_v there_o be_v a_o true_a church_n a_o true_a ministry_n and_o a_o true_a worship_n in_o england_n and_o he_o that_o shall_v avow_v the_o contrary_a must_v needs_o differ_v from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o fundamental_o for_o these_o contradiction_n a_o true_a church_n and_o no_o true_a church_n a_o true_a ministry_n and_o no_o true_a ministry_n a_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n and_o no_o true_a worship_n can_v be_v build_v up_o but_o upon_o different_a foundation_n and_o as_o for_o that_o which_o my_o lord_n affirm_v be_v add_v by_o the_o brownist_n that_o there_o be_v many_o defect_n and_o gross_a corruption_n in_o it_o so_o long_o as_o this_o be_v say_v and_o not_o prove_v it_o be_v enough_o without_o far_a proof_n to_o deny_v both_o the_o defect_n and_o corruption_n both_o the_o many_o and_o the_o gross_a as_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o church_n of_o england_n can_v make_v good_a against_o both_o my_o lord_n and_o all_o the_o brownist_n in_o england_n 2._o second_o if_o to_o affirm_v this_o be_v the_o brownist_n error_n then_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v of_o my_o lord_n how_o he_o can_v say_v the_o brownist_n do_v not_o differ_v from_o or_o with_o we_o in_o any_o fundamental_a point_n of_o doctrine_n or_o save_a truth_n for_o if_o this_o be_v no_o fundamental_a point_n or_o no_o save_a truth_n that_o we_o be_v in_o and_o of_o a_o true_a church_n that_o this_o church_n have_v a_o true_a ministry_n to_o be_v between_o god_n and_o we_o in_o all_o the_o duty_n of_o their_o function_n whether_o upward_o to_o god_n in_o prayer_n and_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n or_o downward_o to_o we_o in_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n that_o in_o this_o church_n and_o by_o this_o ministry_n there_o be_v a_o true_a worship_n and_o that_o without_o gross_a corruption_n what_o can_v be_v account_v next_o the_o creed_n itself_o fundamental_a or_o save_v so_o that_o in_o one_o line_n my_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o say_v the_o brownist_n do_v not_o differ_v with_o we_o in_o any_o fundamental_a point_n of_o doctrine_n or_o save_v truth_n and_o in_o the_o very_a next_o line_n his_o lordship_n confess_v they_o differ_v from_o we_o in_o these_o three_o thing_n which_o if_o not_o several_a yet_o altogether_o as_o they_o depend_v one_o upon_o another_o be_v save_v and_o fundamental_a nor_o can_v this_o cautelous_a close_a help_n my_o lord_n one_o jot_n that_o he_o add_v the_o brownist_n do_v not_o differ_v from_o we_o in_o any_o fundamental_a point_n of_o doctrine_n or_o save_a truth_n as_o his_o lordship_n know_v for_o be_v his_o lordship_n of_o a_o shallow_a or_o narrow_a comprehension_n it_o be_v another_o matter_n but_o since_o he_o be_v so_o full_a of_o understanding_n in_o these_o thing_n it_o be_v impossible_a but_o he_o must_v know_v these_o three_o together_o be_v fundamental_a and_o be_v so_o he_o must_v needs_o know_v also_o that_o the_o brownist_n differ_v with_o we_o in_o fundamental_o which_o be_v that_o which_o he_o deny_v if_o therefore_o my_o lord_n will_v say_v he_o know_v not_o this_o to_o be_v the_o brownist_n error_n why_o do_v he_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o say_v it_o be_v if_o he_o will_v grant_v that_o he_o know_v it_o he_o must_v needs_o know_v withal_o if_o he_o will_v not_o shut_v out_o the_o light_n of_o his_o conscience_n of_o which_o a_o little_a before_o he_o be_v so_o tender_a that_o the_o brownist_n or_o separatist_n call_v they_o what_o you_o will_v differ_v from_o we_o in_o some_o fundamental_a point_n of_o doctrine_n or_o save_a truth_n thus_o far_o then_o my_o lord_n relate_v the_o fail_n of_o the_o brownist_n i_o hope_v he_o will_v be_v so_o careful_a as_o not_o to_o fail_v with_o they_o himself_o yes_o sure_a for_o he_o add_v i_o hold_v no_o such_o opinion_n but_o do_v believe_v to_o the_o contrary_a that_o there_o be_v in_o england_n many_o true_a church_n and_o a_o true_a ministry_n which_o i_o do_v hear_v and_o with_o which_o church_n i_o can_v join_v in_o communion_n be_v those_o yoke_n of_o bondage_n which_o be_v lay_v upon_o they_o take_v off_o and_o those_o corruption_n remove_v which_o they_o do_v contrary_a as_o i_o think_v to_o their_o duty_n yield_v unto_o and_o admit_v of_o and_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a no_o separatist_n in_o england_n hold_v that_o deserve_v that_o name_n and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v your_o lordship_n will_n in_o that_o respect_n let_v i_o stand_v right_a in_o your_o opinion_n here_o my_o lord_n tell_v we_o he_o hold_v no_o such_o opinion_n but_o do_v believe_v to_o the_o contrary_n but_o i_o doubt_v he_o so_o believe_v to_o the_o contrary_a as_o that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o same_o opinion_n for_o he_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v in_o england_n many_o true_a church_n and_o a_o true_a ministry_n and_o so_o do_v all_o the_o brownist_n for_o no_o doubt_n but_o they_o believe_v that_o all_o their_o congregation_n or_o conventicle_n be_v true_a church_n in_o england_n and_o that_o the_o minister_n which_o they_o hear_v be_v true_a minister_n and_o this_o be_v plain_o my_o lord_n belief_n for_o he_o say_v he_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o true_a ministry_n in_o england_n 〈◊〉_d he_o do_v hear_v but_o what_o minister_n they_o be_v which_o he_o do_v hear_v he_o do_v not_o say_v or_o if_o this_o be_v not_o my_o lord_n meaning_n but_o that_o there_o be_v some_o true_a church_n and_o some_o true_a minister_n in_o england_n though_o ordain_v as_o in_o england_n they_o be_v yet_o my_o lord_n continue_v a_o separatist_n still_o for_o his_o lordship_n do_v not_o say_v either_o that_o he_o do_v or_o that_o he_o will_v or_o that_o he_o can_v join_v in_o communion_n with_o any_o of_o these_o church_n or_o this_o ministry_n which_o he_o say_v be_v true_a but_o only_o that_o he_o can_v join_v with_o they_o if_o if_o what_o why_o if_o these_o yoke_n of_o bondage_n be_v take_v off_o which_o be_v lay_v upon_o they_o and_o those_o corruption_n remove_v by_o the_o yoke_n of_o bondage_n he_o mean_v the_o injunction_n of_o a_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n which_o he_o have_v so_o often_o mention_v in_o this_o speech_n but_o what_o corruption_n he_o mean_v i_o know_v not_o till_o his_o lordship_n shall_v be_v please_v to_o tell_v we_o only_o this_o i_o conceive_v i_o may_v add_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v not_o corruption_n in_o the_o church_n
