some_o man_n that_o style_v themselves_o pastor_n of_o gather_v church_n who_o while_o they_o gather_v a_o few_o scatter_v many_o there_o be_v a_o short_a but_o sad_a complaint_n which_o i_o have_v late_o see_v write_v in_o the_o name_n of_o many_o thousand_o of_o this_o country_n to_o this_o effect_n 1_o that_o in_o several_a great_a parish_n market_n town_n and_o other_o minister_n be_v place_v who_o own_o but_o a_o very_a few_o as_o member_n of_o their_o church_n and_o preach_v judgement_n to_o the_o rest_n and_o deprive_v they_o and_o their_o child_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o

preacher_n wander_v abroad_o with_o their_o disciple_n after_o they_o invade_v other_o man_n parish_n distract_v the_o people_n and_o alienate_v their_o mind_n from_o their_o lawful_a pastor_n 3_o that_o they_o spread_v under_o pretence_n of_o preach_v christ_n very_o dangerous_a opinion_n against_o parish-church_n and_o parish-minister_n and_o against_o that_o order_n and_o government_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v restore_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n 4_o that_o the_o say_a preacher_n pretend_v to_o be_v the_o man_n by_o who_o favour_n or_o disfavour_v other_o minister_n must_v stand_v or_o fall_v who_o ordination_n they_o call_v antichristian_a and_o have_v a_o design_n to_o plant_v their_o illiterate_a follower_n who_o they_o exercise_v to_o that_o end_n in_o their_o place_n these_o and_o the_o like_a grievance_n we_o hope_v authority_n will_v in_o time_n redress_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o minister_n that_o be_v leave_v of_o the_o old_a stock_n to_o
