forth_o in_o its_o native_a lustre_n and_o it_o appear_v by_o ult_n magna_fw-la charta_fw-la that_o all_o the_o right_n of_o the_o church_n be_v the_o chief_a liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a to_o be_v

that_o statute_n three_o and_o by_o a_o anticipation_n declare_v it_o null_a shall_v i_o guess_v at_o the_o cause_n of_o so_o great_a a_o caution_n it_o seem_v to_o be_v as_o for_o other_o reason_n so_o in_o particular_a for_o this_o because_o to_o alter_v that_o government_n be_v as_o well_o against_o the_o king_n oath_n as_o against_o the_o oath_n of_o both_o house_n which_o swear_v the_o

knowledge_n in_o holy_a thing_n the_o order_n of_o bishop_n be_v by_o divine_a institution_n and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o in_o good_a earnest_n it_o will_v be_v dangerous_a to_o deal_v with_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n as_o we_o read_v 208._o agesilaus_n once_o deal_v with_o those_o of_o lacedaemon_n which_o he_o pretend_v only_o to_o abrogate_v that_o he_o may_v not_o break_v they_o but_o whether_o

these_o first_o i_o insist_v on_o such_o a_o subject_n because_o my_o text_n as_o i_o say_v do_v exact_v it_o of_o i_o and_o because_o it_o be_v my_o duty_n at_o least_o to_o wish_v that_o the_o day_n break_v forth_o may_v be_v full_a and_o last_a that_o the_o repentance_n of_o the_o nation_n may_v be_v impartial_a and_o so_o to_o our_o sovereign_n return_n there_o may_v be_v add_v his_o continuance_n in_o peace_n and_o safety_n i_o say_v in_o safety_n not_o more_o to_o his_o person_n than_o his_o posterity_n nor_o in_o safety_n for_o a_o season_n so_o long_o as_o man_n be_v well_o humour_a but_o so_o long_o as_o the_o sun_n or_o the_o moon_n endure_v and_o then_o for_o you_o of_o this_o place_n who_o be_v a_o honourable_a part_n of_o the_o english_a nation_n that_o which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v your_o duty_n i_o think_v be_v your_o interest_n to_o endeavour_v the_o most_o i_o be_o press_v on_o you_o be_v this_o that_o you_o will_v labour_v for_o the_o mean_n of_o your_o be_v happy_a if_o you_o think_v you_o can_v be_v happy_a with_o the_o establishment_n of_o the_o prelacy_n i_o shall_v pray_v you_o may_v be_v happy_a at_o least_o without_o it_o and_o also_o wish_v i_o may_v be_v able_a to_o pray_v with_o faith_n too_o only_o as_o often_o as_o i_o reflect_v on_o king_n james_n his_o motto_n no_o bishop_n no_o king_n and_o withal_o do_v consider_v its_o have_v be_v verify_v once_o and_o before_o our_o eye_n i_o think_v it_o my_o duty_n to_o desire_v it_o may_v not_o be_v verify_v any_o more_o but_o that_o it_o may_v rather_o be_v here_o apply_v what_o be_v speak_v heretofore_o of_o the_o spartan_a law_n ut_fw-la semper_fw-la esse_fw-la possent_fw-la aliquando_fw-la non_fw-la fuerunt_fw-la they_o only_o cease_v for_o a_o time_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v continue_v to_o all_o eternity_n these_o be_v sincere_o the_o very_a reason_n for_o which_o i_o insist_v upon_o such_o a_o subject_a second_o i_o do_v it_o in_o such_o a_o place_n because_o i_o look_v on_o this_o assembly_n as_o on_o the_o head_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o royal_a city_n i_o look_v on_o the_o city_n as_o on_o a_o sea_n into_o which_o the_o main_a stream_n of_o the_o nation_n run_v even_o the_o parliament_n itself_o have_v such_o a_o respect_n unto_o the_o city_n that_o if_o you_o plead_v for_o god_n spouse_n as_o you_o have_v do_v for_o his_o anoint_v for_o which_o your_o name_n will_v be_v precious_a with_o late_a posterity_n if_o you_o shall_v supplicate_v for_o a_o discipline_n which_o be_v as_o old_a in_o this_o land_n as_o christianity_n itself_o and_o stand_v establish_v in_o law_n by_o thirty_o two_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o without_o which_o you_o can_v live_v unless_o by_o live_v under_o the_o breach_n of_o your_o great_a charter_n they_o will_v not_o only_o be_v apt_a to_o grant_v but_o to_o thank_v you_o also_o for_o your_o petition_n have_v go_v thus_o far_o in_o prosecution_n of_o the_o advertisement_n that_o the_o night_n of_o our_o suffer_v be_v fair_o spend_v and_o that_o the_o day_n of_o our_o enjoyment_n begin_v to_o dawn_n and_o have_v direct_v unto_o the_o mean_n with_o submission_n be_v it_o speak_v to_o all_o

those_o work_n which_o either_o want_a light_n or_o be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o which_o either_o borrow_a darkness_n for_o their_o cover_n or_o else_o which_o own_a it_o for_o their_o cause_n i_o

to_o the_o general_n use_v of_o this_o advertisement_n to_o which_o i_o be_o prompt_v by_o the_o word_n therefore_o as_o it_o be_v a_o word_n of_o connexion_n betwixt_o the_o duty_n and_o the_o deliverance_n our_o apostle_n do_v not_o thus_o argue_v because_o the_o night_n of_o oppression_n be_v now_o far_o spend_v and_o the_o day_n of_o deliverance_n be_v hard_a at_o hand_n let_v we_o therefore_o enjoy_v the_o good_a thing_n that_o be_v present_a let_v we_o stretch_v ourselves_o upon_o 〈◊〉_d bed_n of_o ivory_n let_v we_o crown_v ourselves_o with_o rosebud_n let_v we_o drink_v

of_o forty_o year_n after_o the_o crucify_a of_o jesus_n there_o be_v to_o happen_v among_o the_o jew_n a_o famous_a day_n of_o discrimination_n wherein_o 40._o one_o be_v to_o be_v take_v and_o
