to_o their_o shame_n that_o he_o make_v they_o rich._n 4_o they_o object_n that_o they_o that_o serve_v at_o the_o altar_n shall_v live_v by_o the_o altar_n and_o bp._n sanderson_n say_v that_o

by_o perjury_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o a_o parsonage_n or_o vicarage_n and_o when_o we_o observe_v that_o mere_a ignoramus_n be_v in_o great_a live_n and_o wise_a man_n shut_v out_o every_o one_o of_o sense_n may_v well_o imagine_v that_o not_o their_o virtue_n but_o their_o money_n advance_v they_o to_o the_o same_o and_o then_o the_o church_n be_v like_a to_o be_v serve_v well_o when_o he_o that_o shall_v preach_v against_o covetousness_n perjury_n and_o simony_n be_v himself_o a_o covetous_a perjure_a simonist_n and_o deserve_v rather_o to_o stand_v in_o a_o pillory_n than_o a_o

grievous_a sin_n we_o must_v shun_v covetousness_n for_o they_o that_o will_v be_v rich_a fall_v into_o temptation_n and_o preach_v free_o and_o when_o we_o have_v so_o do_v we_o must_v still_o say_v we_o be_v unprofitable_a servant_n we_o have_v do_v what_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o do_v they_o that_o preach_v for_o reward_n christ_n will_v say_v unto_o they_o as_o he_o do_v to_o the_o pharise_n they_o have_v their_o reward_n and_o all_o the_o reward_n they_o be_v like_a to_o have_v in_o this_o life_n but_o he_o that_o be_v content_a with_o his_o allowance_n of_o meat_n and_o livery_n in_o

then_o the_o respect_n and_o honour_v you_o have_v be_v not_o give_v to_o you_o but_o to_o your_o money_n when_o a_o ass_n go_v through_o the_o city_n with_o a_o golden_a image_n on_o his_o back_n the_o superstitious_a people_n fall_v on_o their_o knee_n and_o worship_v the_o silly_a ass_n think_v they_o have_v worship_v he_o whereas_o they_o worship_v only_o the_o golden_a image_n on_o his_o
