THe
whole
volume
of
M.
Deanes
/
containeth
in
it
/
16
bookes
besides
a
large
preface
/
and
an
Epistle
to
the
Reader
:
The
Epistle
&
the
preface
/
are
not
aboue
8.
sheets
of
paper
and
very
little
vnder

You
may
see
when
men
haue
a
gift
in
writing
/
howe
easie
it
is
for
them
to
daube

.
The
compleat
worke
(
very
briefely
comprehended
in
a
portable
booke
/
if
your
horse
be
not
too
weake
/
of
an
hundred
threescore
and
twelue
sheets
/
of
good
Demie
paper
)
is
a
confutation
of
The
learned
discourse
of
Ecclesiasticall
gouernement
.
This
learned
discourse
/
is
a
booke
allowed
by
all
the
Puritane
preachers
in
the
lande
/
who
would
haue
all
the
remnants
and
reliques
of
Antichriste
dauntehed
out
of
the
Church
/
and
not
so
much
as
a
Lorde
B.
(
no
not
his
grace
himselfe
)
dumbe
minister
(
no
not
dumbe
Iohn
of
London

selfe
)
nonresident
/
archdeacon
/
abbie
lubder
/
or
anye
such
loyterer
/
tollerated
in
our
ministerie
.
Insomuch
/
as
if
this
strong
holde
of
theirs
be
ouerthrowne
/
hoe
then
all
the
fat
is
run
to
the
fire
with
the
puritanes
.
And
therefore
hath
not
the
learned
&
prudent
M.
Deane
delt
very
valiantly
(
how
wisely
let
Iohn
Cant.
cast
his
cardes
and
consider
)
in
assaulting
this
fort
of
our
precise
brethren
/
which
he
hath
so
shaken
with
good
vincible
reasons
very
notably
out
of
reason
/
that
it
hath
not
one
steane
in
the
foundation
meare
then
it
had
.
Trust
me
truely
/
he
hath
giuen
the
cause
sicken
a
wipe
in
his
bricke
/
and
so
lamb
skinned
the
fame
/
that
the
cause
will
be
the
warmer
a
good
while
for
it
.
The
reasons
that
moued
him
to
take
this
paines
was
/
that
at
the
first
comming
out
of
the
Learned
Discourse
/
the
D.
in
a
Sermon
of
his
at
Paules
crosse
/
did
not
onely
confute
a
great
part
of
this
booke
/
but
by
his
said
learned
sermon
/
made
many
of
the
puritans
relent
and
distrust
their
owne
cause
.
what
cannot
a
smooth
tongue
/
and
a
schollerlike
wit
bring
to
passe
?
A
learned
discourse
,
&c.
A
sawcie
title
/
but
what
sayth
the
lerned
Bridges
vnto
it
.
O
you
know
he
is
good
at
a
stale
iest
/
euer
since
he
plaide
my
Lord
of
Winchesters
foole
in
his
sermon
at
Sir
Maries
Church
in
Cambridg
/
&
therfore
he
iesteth
at
the
title
.
I
vs
/
the
puritans
haue
nothing
to
doe
with
that
sermon
:
why
should
they
hit
their
brother
in
the
teeth
therewith
?
he
hath
made
their
betters
to
laugh
at
him
for
his
Sermon
since
that
time
.
And
whye
should
he
not
?
for
his
grace
will
allow
him
/
because
he
is
content
that
bishops
should
be
Lords
:
he
hath
subscribed
/
weareth
a
corner
cap
and
a
tippet
/
&
woulde
gladly
come
to
the
honor
/
to
weare
that
which
might
make
him
a
lord
spirituall
/
and
if
it
were
a
shauen
crowne
/
or
a
coxcombe
/
which
his
grace
his
articles
would
enioyn
him
to
weare
/
what
hurt
could
that
do
vnto
him
?
Now
I
wonder
what
our
brethren
will
say
to
this
/
that
their
booke
is
scoffed
at
/
at
the
first
dashe
.
I
am
sure
their
noses
can
abide
no
iest
.
What
say
they
man
/
do
you
make
anye
question
of
that
?
I
warraunt
you
they
will
affirme
that

Learned
Discourse

more

would
set
the
deane
of
Sarum
at
a
flat
non
plus
,
and
answere
his
whole
worke
in
a
threepenie
booke●
Are
they
so
good
at
disputing
and
writing
in
deed
?
I
hope
his
Canterburinesse
will
looke
to
this
geare
/
and
suffer
them
to
haue
liberty
neither
to
write
/
nor
to
dispute
/
the

Oxe
hath
troden
on
his

had
some

lesse-gaine
there
is

had

either
in

To
the
matter
.
The
state
of
the
whole
controuersie
betweene
my
brethren
bishops
/
and
my
brethren
the
puritans
/
and
so
betweene
this
worthie
doctor
/
and
these
discoursers
/
is
:
whether
the
externall
gouernement
of
the
Church
of
Christ
/
be
a
thing
so
prescribed
by
the
Lorde
in
the
new
testament
/
as
it
is
not
lawfull
for
any
man
to
alter
the
same
/
any
more
then
it
was
lawfull
to
alter
the
form
of
regiment
prescribed
vnder
the
law
in
the
old
testament
.
And
see
whether
if
there
be
any
gouernment
in
the
Church
(
as
necessarily
there
must
be
/
or
els
all
confusion
will
ensue
)
the
same
must
be
by
those
offices
and
officers
alone
/
and
by
no
other
/
which
the
Lord
hath
set
downe
and
limited
in
his
word
.
Or
els
whether
man
may
alter
these
offices
and
officers
at
his
will
and
pleasure
/
and
make
newe
offices
and
officers
/
as
he
may
in
the
ciuill
gouernments
.
The
puritans
saye
/
that
these
offices
and
officers
/
whiche
our
sauior
Christe
and
his
Apostles
did
ordaine
/
●re
unchangeable
/
and
that
it
is
not
lawfull
for
any
pri●ce
to
alter
them
/
no
not
though
the
circumstances
of
times
/
places
and
persons
/
should
seeme
in
regarde
of
conuenience
/
to
enforce
him
thereunto
.
The
doctor
with
all
the
Lordly
priests
in
the
land
/
hold
the
contrarie
.
And
sweare
it
to
be
lawfull
for
the
magistrate
to
ordaine
what
gouernement
he
will
in
the
Church
:
yea
/
that
the
Church
gouernors
/
contrary
to
the
flat
commandement
of
our
sauior
Christ

And
that
the
Church
gouernment
prescribed
by
our
Sauiour
Christe
/
and
enioyned
by
the
Apostle
/
was
not
immutable
/
as

vnder

No
gouerment
is
an
vniforme
prescript
that
cannot
be
altered
,
but
that
which
God
in
his
worde
prescribeth
to
be
such
.
But
the
Lorde
hath
not
prescribed
the
Church
gouernment
to
be
such
,
as
all
things
appertaining
thereunto
,
is
an
vniforme
prescript

Therefore
the

together
/
let
me
about
this
point
of
Church
gouerment
/
father
mis●erly
spur
a
question
vnto
you
.
Now
reason
with
one
of
our
corrupt
bishopps
/
or
any
other
that
defende
their
corruptions
/
and
saye
that
our
Church
gouernement
is
wicked
and
vnlawfull
/
because
it
is
not
expressely
.
set
downe
in
the
word
.
They
will
by
&
by
demand
/
whether
any
thing
belonging
to
the
seruice
of
God
be
lawfull
/
but
that
wherof
there
is
expresse
mention
made
in
the
worde
.
And
whether
any
thing
belonging
to
Churche
causes
be
changeable
.
As
whether
it
may
be
lawfull
for
the
minister
to
preach
in
his
gowne
/
whereas
there
is
no
expresse
mention
that
our
Sauiour
Christ
and
his
Apostles
did
so
?
Or
whether
it
may
not
be
lawful
for
the
Church
of
Geneua
to
begin
his
sermon
at
8.
of
the
clock
/
whereas
it
may
be
the
Church
of
Hel●etia
beginneth
at
9.
or
at
10.
So
the
worshipfull
Deane
of
Lincolne
(
sometimes
vnlearned
Iohn
Whitgift
)
not
being
able
to
denie
/
but
that
the
ministers
ought
to
be
chosen
by
●ayes
:
demandeth
whether
women
forsooth
were
not
to
haue
a
voyce
in
their
election
or
no
?
And
thus
all
the
packe
of
them
run
from
the
matter
in
controuersie
/
vnto
the
question
of
things
indifferent
.
By
this
means
/
thinking
they
may
bleare
the
eyes
of
men
/
if
they
cann
bring
any
cauill
/
though
neuer
so
impertinent
to
the
matter
.
As
who
say
all
men
were
so
ignorant

vnlearned
/
&
blinded
with
the
worlde
/
as
nonresidentes

I
le

it

And
i
le
besire

Then
they
say
your
assumption
is
nothing
to
the
matter
in
question
.
The
question
my
masters
?
why
what
a
question
is
that
?
Did
not
I
warne
you
aforehand
/
that
M.
deane
had
made
a
vow
/
not
to
meddle
with
the
question
.
But
if
say
they●
you
meane
the
Churche
officers
and
their
subiects
/
concerning
which
the
controuersie
is
instituted
then
we
denie
the
assumption
.
And
I
warrant
you
brethren
/
he
proueth
the
assumption
by
2.
reasons
/
page
55.
First
Christ
is
the
owner
and
gouernour
of
his
house
which
is
the
Churche
,
concerning
the
inward
and
spirituall
gouernment
of
the
heart
.
Therefore
he
hath
not
prescribed
the
outwarde
gouernement
thereof
,
Surely
brother
Iohn
/
I
marueile
vpon
what
topike
place
this
reason
is
grounded
/
for
scripture
is
not
the
foundation
(
you
know
)
of
the
established
gouernment
you
defend
.
As
though
(
will
M.
Bridges
saye
)
you
are
ignorant
brother
Martin
whence
I
drew
this
argument
.
You
would
make
the
worlde
beleeue
/
that
you
know
not
that
I
resoned
as
my
brother
London
did
/
in
his
H●●●orough
of
faythfull
subiects
.
The
scripture
medleth
with
no
ciuill
pollicie
,
anye
farther
then
to
teach
obedience
,
therefore
it
teacheth
not
what
persons
should
beare
rule
.
And

The
ministers
office
is
ouer

a
minister
must
not
reprehende
disorders
in

ciuill
state
.

Paules
commission
is
to
teache
obedience
,
therefore
hee
hath
nothing
to
doe
to
call
for
a
redresse
of
matters
in
ciuil
pollicie
:
yea
in
this

line
19.
Iohn
of
London
hath
these
wordes
/
which
to
his
commendation
I
will
set
downe
as
followeth
.
And
this
being
a
great
matter
of
pollicie
(
sayth
he
)
as
it
is
the
greatest
(
for
it
containeth
the
whole
)
it
cannot
be
within
the
compasse
of
Paules
commission
,
and
so
it
followeth
,
that
Paul
in
this
place
ment
no
such
matter
as
they
gather
,
or
if
hee
did
,
he
did
it
without
the
compasse
of
his
commission
,
&c.
Nowe
truely
brother
Bridges
/
I
thanke
you
heartily
for
putting
me
in
minde
of
this
point
/
I
hope
my
brother
London
cannot
be
offended
with
vs
/
for
/
quoting
him
for
our
authoritie
.
I
see
now
it
is
no
maruaile
though
Paul
be
put
to
silence
within
the
diocesse
of
London
/
for
I
perceiue
there
is
an
olde
grudg
betweene
my
Lord
and
him
:
yet
I
commende
your
fatherhood
/
better
then
his
Lordship
in
this
point
.
For
in
the
57.
page
of
your
booke
/
you
allowe
Paule
a
larger
commission
/
where
you
say
/
that
the
worde
of
God
is
able
to
make
the
ciuill
gouernement
perfect
:
yea
,
and
that
the
perfection
of
the
ciuill
gouernement
,
must
be
out
of
the
word
,
and
in
the
word
inclusiuely
.
But
for
all
this
/
you
must
giue
me
leaue
to
doubt
how
this
reson
of
yours
followeth
.
Christ
hath
prescribed
the
inward
gouernment
/
therfore
he
hath
not
prescribed
the
outwarde
.
It
may
be
your
seconde
reason
will
make
the
matter
more
cleare
vnto
me
/
which
is
in
the
same
page
/
&
thus
framed
.
We
are
his
Church
if
we
holde
fast
the
confidence
of
our
hope
vnto
the
end
.
Therefore
there
is
no
externall
gouernment
of
the
Church
set
downe
in
the
word
.
This
reason
/
to
omit
what
ground
it
hath
in
the
worde
/
is
very
plausible
euen
in
nature
:
is
it
not
thinke
you
?
A
man
is
a
man
though
he
go
naked
.
Therefore
by
maste●
deanes
reason
/
the
Lorde
hath
ordained
no
couering
for
his
nakednes
.
Again
/
a
man
is
a
man
if
he
be
once
born
/
though
he
neuer
eate
meate
:
therefore
it
is
not
the
ordinance
of
God
he
should
eat
meat
.
Let
our
cauilling
brethren
/
go
see
nowe
what
may
be
brought
to
reproche
the
credit
of
such
inforcible
proofes
.
M.
Doc.
doubtlesse
will
stand
to
his
tackle
whatsoeuer
they
bring
.
If
they
should
be
so
ignoraunt
as
to
denie
the
consequent
of
both
these
reasons
/
they
must
stay
vntill

And
it
may
be
then
to
/
that
he
will
prooue
what
they

how
stoutly
M.

goeth

The
place
of
scripture
which
doth
not
denie
,
but
that
the
ciuill
gouernement
,
which
must
be
inclusiuely
according
to
the
worde
,
may
be
elsewhere
prescribed
then
in
the
worde

that
place
also
doth
not
forbid
the
Church
gouernment
to
be
fetched
from
some
other
fountaine
,
then
the
prescription
of

worde
.
But
this
place

doth
not
denie
,
but
that
ciuill
gouernment
being
a
gouernement
nor
prescribed
in
the
worde
,
may
bee
learned
elsewhere
,
then
out
of
the
word
,
and
yet
be
according
to
the
worde
.
Also
it
doeth
not
denie
but
that
the
church
gouernment
may
be
a
church
gouernment
according
to
the
word
,
which
is
not
therein
prescribed
.
It
is
a
hard
matter
I
tell
you
/
to
conceiue
all
the
wisdomnes
of
this
syllogisme
.
For
if
you
marke
the
proposition
very
well
/
you
shall
therein
finde
the
errors
(
as
M.

accounteth
them
)
of
Peter
and
Paule
/
verye
notablie
ouerthrown

The
one
of
them

You
may
see
then
/
how
headie
and
peruerse
these
our
brethren
are

that
had
rather
sticke
vnto
a
poore
fisherman
and
Tentmaker
/
Peter
and
Paule
/
in
a
matter
of
trueth
/
then
imbrace
the
manifest
falsehood
of
so
plaine
an
vntrueth
/
with
a
fat
deane
/
and
all
the
braue
spiritual
Lordes
in
the
lande
.
Well
fare
our
cleargie
men
yet
/
(
who
being
like
the
priest
whereof
Iohn
of
London
maketh
mention
of

And
I
trow
M.
doctors
reasons
following
/
wil
make
the
puritans
stoope
vnto
his
grace
/
and
leaue
their
peeuishnes
/
and
running
beyonde
their
commission
/
after
the
example
of
Paule
/
in
speaking
against
any
established
gouernement
:
yea
and
a
gouernment
established
by
act
of
parliament
.
I
thinke
my
L.
of
London
gaue
Paule
inough
/
as
we
heard
before
/
for
medling
with
state
matters
.
And
his
grace
admonisheth
the
puritan
preachers
often
inough
/
that
howsoeuer
they
haue
trueth
of
their
side
:
yet
they
must
not
runne
beyond
a
law
/
and
without
law
:
if
they
doe
/
though
they
haue
Peter
and
Paule
to
speake
for
them
/
yet
by
your
leaue
/
hee
hath
in
his
hande
that
whiche
will
tame
them
and
all
their
fa●tors
:
If
the
abusing
of
the
high
commission
&
an
whole
popedome
be
able
to
do
it
.
But
all
this
while
/
we
go
not
on
forward
with
you
brother
Sarum
.
It
suffizeth
that
suche
orders
as
are
not
prescribed
in
the
word
/
as
things
necessarie
to
saluation
/
be
they
ciuill
or
ecclesiasticall
/
bee
onely
foulded
vp
within
those
that
are
prescribed
/
and
to
make
them
as
things
expedient
to
edification
/
order
and
comelines
/
for
obedience
sake
/
although
they
be
none
of
those
things
that
appertaine
to
any
necessity
of
our
saluation
/
or
to
any
absolute
necessity
of
our
obedience
.
But
such
is
the
Church
gouernement
as
it
is
not
prescribed
in
the
word
/
as
necessarie
to
saluation
/
or
of
any
absolute
necessity
of
our
obedience
.
Therfore
it
is
sufficient
that
the
Church
gouernment
be
onely
foulded
vp
within
the
things
prescribed
in
the
worde
/
and
be
of
the
nature
of
the
thinges
that
onely
belong
to
edification
/
order
and
comlines
.
I
was
neuer
so
affraid
in
my
life
that
I
shoulde
not
come
to
an
end
/
till
I
had
bene
windlesse
.
Do
you
not
see
how
I
pant
?
Our
brethren
now
are
to
come
to
their
answere
/
Concerning
necessarie
to
saluation
/
then
say
they
/
we
woulde
knowe
brother
Bridges
/
&
thrise
learned
brother
Bridges
/
we
woulde
know
what
you
meane
:
whether
such
a
necessitie
/
as
without
which
/
men
cannot
bee
saued
.
I
meane
euen
the
same
(
sayth
M.
deane
)
as
it
appeareth
page
60.
line
21.22
.
of
my
booke
:
then
we
replie
that
nothing
is
of
this
necessity
/
but
only
iustifieng
faith
/
and
we
denie
the
sacraments
to
be
of
this
necessitie
.
For
the
theefe
on
the
gallowes
But
if
you
ment
not
this
necessitie
/
then
wee
woulde
knowe
/
if
you
can
tell
your selfe
what
you
woulde
haue
/
(
forsooth
brethren
/
a
bishoppricke
he
would
haue
/
and
all
such
troublesome
fellowes
as
you
are
/
bannished
the
land
)
Hoe
yon
meane
such
a
necessitie
/
as
euerie
Church
is
not
bounde
to
obserue
the
same
order
vpon
their
obedience
.
For
example
/
you
meane
that
euery
Churche
or
seuerall
congregation
in
Europe
/
professing
the
trueth
/
is
not
bounde
to
haue
their
Churche
couered
with
lead
/
as
the
monastery
of
Sarum
is
.
That
these
things
should
be
vrged
no
otherwise
,
then
Paule
doth
vrge
them
:
that
is
,
not
placing
the
perfection
of
religion
in
them
,
or
making
them
orders
necessarie
for
the
building
,
but
rather
for
the
ornaments
of
the
building
,
and
so
squaring
them
all
according
vnto
the
rule
:
Let
all
be
done
honestly
,
and
by
good
order
.
Is
this
your
meaning
(
M.
doctor
)
you
haue
spun
a
fayre
thred
.
Can
you
tell
your
brother
Marprelat
with
all
your
learning
/
howe
to
decline
what
is
Latine
for
a
goose
.
Why
this
euery
one
of
your
brethren
his
selfe
wil
graunt
to
be
true
/
and
they
neuer
denied
it
at
any
time
.
But
this
is
not
the
question
.
For
it
is
neither
concerning
Churche
officer
/
office
/
or
anye
part
of
Church
gouernement
/
whereof
the
question
is
instituted
:
but
it
is
concerning
matter
of
circumstance
.
Yet
(
brother
Iohn
)
what
do
you
meane
by
these
contrarieties
in
this
point
.
For
you
haue
heard
/

/
you
meane
by
things
necessary
to
saluation
/
matters
of
indifferencie
:
and
page
60.
line
21/22.
you
meane
an
absolute
necessitie
/
without
which
/
men
cannot
be
saued
.
Do
you
think
that
you
can
answer
men

by
saying
that
you

wrote

But
D.
Perne

you
had
no
leysure
to

.
This
is
a
prettie
aunswere
/
is
it
not

you
?
Let
me
take
you

And
warned
M.
doctor

saye
the
puritanes
/
we
will
giue
you
leaue
to
take
eyther
of
these
2.
necessities
to
be
your
meaning
.
If
you
meane
/
as
page

be
necessarie
to
saluation
/
then
they
denie
the
assumption
.
And
yet
they
will
haue
one
course
more
at
the
proposition
before
they
goe
/
because
it
came
from
home
:
and
will
bring
foorth
a
Iesuit
/
vnlesse
betimes
it
be
had
to
the
house
of
correction
.
They
say
then
that
you
still
ioyne
with
Bellarmine
.
For
in
the
state
of
the
question
/
concerning
tradition
:
He
hath
the
same
cauill
/
cap.
3.
lib.

against
Caluin
/
Luther
and
Kemnitius
/
which
you
haue
concerning
comdines
/
and
order
in
this
place
/
against
your
brethren
.
What
a
sawcie
fellow
was
that
Bellarmine
/
that
must
needes
publish
his
worke
for
the
Pope
/
one
iust
yeare
before
you
published
yours
for
the
Archbishop
?
Could
he
not
keep
it
in
/
vntill
both
your
books
might
be
published
together
.
For
now
these
puritans
do
shake
you
very
shrewdly
/
for
borrowing
popishe
stuffe
from
Bellarmine
/
&
ouerthrowing
her
Maiesties
supremacie
:
whereas
I
am
perswaded
/
that
although
Bellarmin
had
neuer
written
/
yet
the
master
that
taught
him
/
would
in
time
haue
fully
instructed
you
/
in
all
these
points
that
are
forged
vpon
his
Anvil
.
And
although
(
as
I
thinke
)
he
saued
you
a
great
deale
of
studie
/
yet
I
pray
you
let
D.
Perne
write
vnto
him
/
that
he
may
know
his
fault
/
and
you
be
certified
when
hee
writeth
againe
/
that
both
your
bookes
may
come
forth
together
.
Nowe
if
in
your
assumption
(
saye
our
brethren
)
if
you
meane
by
necessitie
to
saluation
/
that
without
which
men
cannot
be
saued
as
before
:
it
is
true
/
that
the
Church
gouernment
is
not
of
this
necessitie
/
for
in
that
sence
as
was
sayd
/
the
sacraments
are
not
necessarie
to
saluation
/
or
of
a●y
absolute
necessitie
vnto
our
obedience
.
Nay
to
be
no
traytor
/
no
●dolator
/
no
whoremonger
/
is
not
of
that
absolute
necessitie
to
saluation
/
but
that
he
may
be
saued
/
whiche
hath
beene
(
so
th●●
now
he
be
none
)
sometimes
an
idolator
/
&c.
If
you
meane
that
other
necessitie
/
wherby
al
they
that
will
haue
any
gouernment
in
the
Church
/
are
bound
to
haue
that
onely
/
and
none
els
which
God
hath
prescribed
in
the
worde
/
or
else
transgresse
that
inuiolable
prescript
ordinaunce
of
God
/
concerning
the
gouernement
of
his
Church
.
Then
they
denie
the
assumption
.
Here
is
a
pretie
matter
/
that
one
poore
syllogisme
must
be
thus
handled
/
I
woulde
his
worshipp
knewe
who
they
were
/
that
thus
deale
with
him
.
I
hope
it
should
not
be
long
ere

the
Pur●iuant
(
as
vnnaturall

They
shall
be

I
doubt
not

Euerie
thing
that
is
prescribed
in
the
word
,
contayneth
in
it
the
perfection
of
religion
.
But
the
Church
gouernement
doeth
not
containe
in
it
,
the
perfection
of
religion
.
Therefore
the
Churche
gouernement
is
not
prescribed
in
the
word

No

neither

For

therefore
as
you
may
wisely
conclude
/
it
is
not

We
may

Euerie
thing
that
is

is
of
the

The

foole
/
do
you
?
Or
that
you
are
in
the
monasterie
of
Sarum
among
your
roring
quiristers
.
I
would
aduise
you
/
learn
this
of
me
:
That
the
Church
gouernment
is
a
substancial
point
of
religion
.
And
therfore
of
the
substance
of
the
building
.
That
it
is
a
substantiall
point
/
it
appeareth
/
because
it
is
included
within
the
commaundement
which
our
Sauior
Either
necessarie
,
or
vnnecssarie
:
But
not
necessarie
to
saluation
.
Ergo
,
vnnecessarie
.
Thus
M.
Doc.
carrieth
away
the
matter
very
clearly
.
Onely
he
strayneth
a
little
curtesie
with
the
Learned
Discourse
,
in
putting
necessarie
to
saluation
/
for
appertayning
to
saluation
.
You
know
he
that
can
with
a
guilty
conscience
/
haue
a
facultie
for
two
liuings
/
may
as
wel
be
dispensed
with
/
for
a
lye
or
two
.
And
I
wisse
these
fellowes
neede
not
to
be
so
precise
of
swearing
by
fayth
&
troth
/
and
strayning
out
a
small
lye
for
a
benefit
/
they
commit
groser
sinnes
many
times
.
And
this
M.
Do.
hath
ouerthrowne
their
whole
buylding
in
generall
.
Nowe
hee
commeth
to
the
spoyling
of
euery
particular
part
therof
.
But
before
I
come
to
these
pointes
/
I
care
not
inasmuch
as
there
hath
bene
often
mention
made
of
my
L.
of
Londons
booke
/
betweene
our
brother
Bridges
and
me
/
if
I
set
downe
some
part
of
my
iudgement
/
concerning
that
booke
.
O
but
M.
Martin
/
will
my
brother
Bridges
say
/
will
you
meddle
with
that
booke
/
which
M.
Amar
wrote
in
the
defence
of
her
Maiesties
gouernment
.
To
returne
to
Iohn
of
Londons
foresaid
booke
/
I
say
although
he
hath
therein
/
spoken
against
bishopps
/
euen
our
bishops
now
liuing
/
and
so
against
himselfe
/
as
being
nowe
a
B.
yet
that
his
booke
is
a
carnall
and
vnlearned
booke
/
smelling
altogether
of
earth
/
without
rime
/
and
without
reason
.
And
that
his
speaking
against
bishops
therein
/
was
but
a
snare
to
catch
a
bishopprick
/
as
it
now
appeareth
.
The
particular
sentences
&
marginall
notes
shal
be
set
downe
/
and
where
I
set
anye
note
vpon
your
booke
/
there
shal
be
an
m.
for
difference
sake
/
added
thervnto
.
We
will
beginn
with
your
owne
wordes
vnto
the
Bb.
that
is
vnto
your selfe
and
your
brethren
/
page
23.
Oh
they
may
thanke
God
(
say
you
)
that
they
haue
this
time
to
breathe
them
,
and
bethinke
them
of
their
naughtie
and
hellishe
crueltie
,
and
to
call
dayly
and
hourely
for
pardon
and
forgiuenes
,
for
let
them
thinke
,
that
if
they
be
not
punished
in
this
life
nor
repent
:
God
accounteth
their
deedes
so
vile
,
and
their
●ults
so
haynous
,
that
no
temporall
paines
be
inough
for
such
offences
.
And
therefore
reserueth
them
to
eternall
damnation
.
Oh
howle
and
wayle
you
priests
and
prelates
,
not
for
the
danger
you
stand
in
,
of
loosing
your
bishopricks
and
benefices
,
your
pride
&
your
pompe
,
your
dignities
and
honors
,
your
riches
and
welth
:
But
for
that
hel
hath
opened
her
mouth
wide
,
and
gapeth
to
swalow
you
for
the
sheding
of
so
much
innocent
blood
,
for
murdering
so
manie
martyrs
(
though
this
her
true
in
our
bishops
/
yet
let
me
in
steede
thereof
say
/
for
imprisoning
so
many
innocents
/
and
murthering
the
soules
of
so
many
in
ignorance
)
and
spoiling
Christs
church
of
so
manie
glistering
and
glorious
ornaments
,
commended
of
all
for
their
learning
and
discommended
of
none
for
their
liuing
.
Nowa
lest
anye
man
shoulde
thinke
that
he
writeth
these
things
to
popish
bishops
/
you
are
to
know
/
that
he
wrote
them
vnto
such
as
were
bishopps
in
the
raigne
of
her
maiestie
/
vnto
bishops
professing
the
gospel
in
name
/
but
in
deed
deniyng
the
power
thereof
.
And
in
the
next
page
line
10.
he
hath
these
words
against
those
bishops
/
and
now
against
himselfe
.
But
Christ
knowing
the
bounds
of
his
office
,
would
not
meddle
with
externe
pollicies
,
translating
of
realmes
,
and
depriuing
of
true
inheritors
.
Now
when
he
was
desired
to
be
arbiter
betwixt
two
brethren
:
he
asked
not
how
the
plea
stood
,
but
who
made
him
an
officer
?
Diuines
(
me
thinkes
)
should
by
this
example
,
not
giue
themselues
too
much
the
brydle
,
and
too
large
a
scope
,
to
meddle
with
matters
of
pollicie
,
as
this
is
,
whervpon
dependeth
,
eyther
the
welfare
or
ilfare
of
the
realme
.
If
these
two
offices
,
I
meane
ecclesiasticall
and
ciuill
,
be
so
iumbled
together
,
as
it
may
be
lawful
for
both
parties
to
meddle
in
both
functions
,
here
can
be
no
quiet
,
nor
well
ordered
common
wealth
.
Thus
the
reader
may
see
/
what
a
paterne
of
hypocrisie
this
wicked
bishop
since
he
wrote
this
book
/
hath
shewed
himself
to
be
:
in
taking
vpon
hi●
/
not
onely
that
calling
/
whiche
in
his
owne
iudgement
is
vnlawfull
/
but
also
in
ioyning
those
two
offices
together
:
the
coupling
whereof
/
he
confesseth
to
bee
ioyned
as
well
with
the
most
vile
disorder
/
as
with
the
dangerous
disquietnes
of
the
common
wealth
.
And
yet
he
hath
not
here
left
off
speaking
against
bishops
.
Therefore
/
as
before
in
the
Epistle
hath
bin
touched
/
he
dealeth
more
roundly
with
than
/
page
103
then
before
/
in
these
wordes
.
Come
off
you
bishops
,
away
with
your
superfluities
,
yeeld
vp
your
thousandes
,
be
content
with
your
hundreths
,
as
they
be
in
other
reformed
Churches
,
where
be
as
great
learned
men
as
you
are
.
Let
your
portion
be
pristlike
,
&
not
prince
like
.
Let
the
Queen
haue
the
rest
of
your
temporallities
and
other
landes
,
to
maintaine
these
warres
which
you
procured
,
and
your
mistresse
left
her
,
and
with
the
rest
to
build
and
found
schools
throughout
the
realme
:
that
euery
parrishe
Church
may
haue
his
preacher
,
euerie
citie
his
superintendent
,
to
liue
honestly
,
and
not
pompously
,
which
will
neuer
bee
,
vnlesse
your
lands
be
dispersed
and
bestowed
vpon
many
,
whiche
now
feedeth
and
fatteth
but
one
.
Remember
that
Abimelech
,
when
Dauid
in
his
bannishment
woulde
haue
diued
with
him
,
kept
such
hospitallitie
,
that
he
had
no
bread
in
his
house
to
giue
him
out
the
shewe
bread
.
Where
was
all
his
superfluitie
to
keepe
your
pretenced
hospitallitie
?
For
that
is
the
cause
you
aleage
,
why
you
must
haue
thousands
,
as
though
you
were
commanded
to
keepe
hospitallitie
,
rather
with
a
thousand
,
then
with
a
hundred
.
I
woulde
out
countriman
Wicklieffes
booke
which
he
wrote
,
De
Ecclesia
,
were
in
print
,
and
there
should
you
see
,
that
your
wrinches
and
cauillations
be
nothing
worth
.
Hitherto
you
see
that
this
Balaam
/
who
hath
I
feare
me
/
receiued
the
wages
of
vnrighteousnes
/
spoken
in
generall
/
as
well
against
the
callings
of
bishops
/
and
their
vsurping
of
ciuill
offices
/
as
against
their
pride
/
pompe
&
superfluitie
.
Must
not
he
thinke
you
/
haue
eyther
a
most
scared
/
or
a
most
guiltie
conscience
/
that
can
finde
of
his
heart
/
to
continue
in
that
calling
:
yea
/
and
in
the
abuse
of
that
calling
/
which
his
owne
conscience
/
if
he
woulde
but
awake
it
/
telleth
him
to
be
vnlawfull
?
The
Lord
giue
him
repentance
/
if
he
belongeth
vnto
him
/
or
speedely
rid
his
Churche
of
such
a
scourge
.
And
may
not
all
the
former
speeches
be
fitly
applied
vnto
him
?
Is
without
dout
.
But
the
next
he
may
be
thought
to
haue
written
to
himselfe
/
which
he
hath
set
downe
/
page
34.
As
if
you
shoulde
saye
,
my
L.
Lubber
of
London
is
a
tyrant
,
Ergo
he
is
no
Byshop
.
I
warraunt
you
though
he
graunted
you
the
antecedent
,
which
he
can
hardly
denie
,
yet
he
woulde
denie
the
consequent
,
or
els
he
would
call
for
wiely
Watson
to
helpe
him
.
Here
brother
London
/
you
haue
crossed
your selfe
ouer
the
costard
once
in
your
dayes
.
I
thinke
you
would
haue
spent
3.
of
the
best
Elmes
which
you
haue
cut
down
in
Fulham
/
and
3.
pence
halfepenie
besides
/
that
I
had
neuer
met
with
your
booke
.
But
vnlesse
you
/
and
Iohn
of
Excetor

with
Thomas
Winchester
/
who
haue
beene
in
times
past
hypocrites
as
you
haue
bene

leaue
off
to

the
word

ver
godly
men
/
I
will
make
you
to
be
noble

bishops
for
euer

And
might
not
a

wel
iudge
yon
three
to
be
the
desperat
Dicks
/
which
you
brother
London

page

affirm
to
be
good
bishops
in
England
.
For
to
allude
vnto
your
owne
words
/
page
28.29
.
Whereas
other
bishops
in
the
land
/
for
the
most
/
(
onely
Iohn
Canterburie
excepted
)
lest
they
should
one
day
answere
for

proceedings
vnto
her
maiestie
/
and
gaine
the
euill
will
of
the
noble
men
/
and
gentlemen
that
fauour
the
sinceritie
of
the
gospell
/
will
not
seeme
to
bee
such
dealers
as
you
3.
are
/
though
they
serue
at
an
inche
in
their
place
/
to
maintaine
his
graces
pride
and
cruelty
/
to
stay
the
course
of
the
gospell
/
and
to
fetch
in
men
with
in
the
compasse
of
subscription
/
yet
are
they
those
for
the
most
part
/
that
will
imprison
none
/
and
trouble
verie
few
vnles
it
be
for
fear
that
if
they
should
tollerate
to
much
/
they
should
haue
a
checke
of
their
worshipfull
Paltripolitan
.
But
you
three

like
furious

senceles
brute
beasts
dread
no
perill

looke
no
farther
then
your

but
with
tooth

cry
out

downe
with

Fetch

It
makes
no
matter
with
you
(
I
folow
your
own
words
brother

so
you
may
shew

Thus
farre
I
haue
followed
your
words

howbeit
I
thinke
you
are
not
well
pleased

because
yo●
meane
not

That
prechers
must
not
be
afraid
to
rebuke
the
proudest
,
yea
kings
and
Queenes
,
so
far
forth
as
the
two
tables
of
the
law
doe
reache
.
As
we
see
in
Samuell
,
Nathan
,
Elias
,
Iohn
Baptist
,
&
many
other
.
They
may
not
stoope
to
euery
mans
becke
,
&
studie
to
please
man
more
then
God
.
Thus
far
are
your
wordes
/
and
they
are
as
farr
from
your
practize
/
as
you
are
from
the
imitation
of
these
godly
examples
whiche
you
haue
brought
.
I
see
a
bishoppricke
hath
cooled
your
courage

for
in
those
dayes
that
you
wrote
this
book

you
woulde

our
parliament
to
ouer
rule
her
maiestie

&
not
to
yeelde
an
inche
vnto
her
of
their
prileadges
.
Your
words
I
will
set
downe
.
In
like
manner
(
say
you

page

)
if
the
parliament
vse
their
priuiledges
the
king
can
ordaine
nothing
without
them
:
if
he
doe
,
it
is
his
falt
in
vsurping
it
,
and
their
folly
in
permitting
it
:
wherfore
in
my
iudgement
,
those
that
in
king
Henrie
the
8.
daies
,
would
not
graunt
him
that
his

&c
I
assure
you

you

I
would

But
me
thinks
you
haue
a
palpable
error

in
the
48.49

50.
page
of
your
booke

which
is
that

vncapable

Besides

like

Here
he
leaueth

here
I
leaue
his
booke

Nowe
I
entreat
the
reader
to
consider
these
thinges
/
that
I
haue
set
downe
out
of
his
booke

and
iudge
whether
such
things
as
he
wrote
coulde
proceed
from
a
religious
heart
:
and
whether
the
booke
be
not
an
offspring
proceeding
from
a
lumpe
of
earthly
flesh
.
This
booke
is
almost
all
the
tokens
of
Christianitie
/
that
euer
he
shewed
.
Since
the
time
he
became
bishop
/
he
hath
bene
a
continuall
oppressor
of
the
Churche
of
God
.
His
practises
against
God

his
saintes
/
was
the
onely
cause
whie
I
haue
taken
this
paines
with
his
booke
/
and
he
shall
bee
more
beholding
vnto
me
/
vnlesse
he
leaue
his
tyrannie

But
now
alas
/
alas
brother
Bridges
/
I
had
forgotten
you
all
this
while
/
my
brother
London
and
I
were
so
busie
/
that
wee
scarce
thought
of
you

Why
coulde
not
you
put
me
in

that
you
staid

it
is
no

we

bee

fauorable

you

let
me
see
howe
roundly
you
ouerturne
these
puritans

you

purpose

First
say
you
/
Paule
speaketh
of
diuers
functions
/
therefore
nothing
of
Ecclesiasticall
gouernment
.
This
reason
brethren
is
a
very
sound
one
/
if
you
should
denie
it
/
then
in
deede
/
I
must
thinke
you
not
to
be
altogether
so
leaddenheaded
as
your
brother
Bridges
.
For
do
you
thinke
that
a
man
entreating
of
the
Maior
of
London
/
the
two
Shiriffs
and
their
offices
/
speaketh
by
&
by
of
some
part
of
the
order
&
gouerment
of
the
citie
of
London
?
or
of
som
of
the
gouernours
of
the
citie
.
As
though
my
L.
Maior
&
the
two
Shiriffes
were
now
become
to
be
any
of
the
gouernours
of
the
citie
of

/
or
their
offices
any
part
of
that
gouernment
.
Who
seeth
not
by
this
example
/
the
folly
of
our
precise
brethrens
reason
euidently
declared
.
The
Apostle
(
say
they
)
speketh
of
Apostles
/
prophets
/
Euangelists
/
pastors
/
doctors
/
and
their
functions
(
for
this
M.D.

therfore
he
speaketh
of
some
ecclesiasticall

and
of
some

Apostles

pastors
and
doctors
/
are
church
gouernours
with
them

and

part

Let
them
learne
/
let
them
learn
simple
siginnes
as
they
are
/
that
the
Apostle
speaketh
in
this
place

teacheth
vs
to
speake
English
:
making
an
ecclesiasticall
function
/
to
be
a
thing
altogether
differing
in
nature
/
from
euery
part
of
ecclesiasticall
gouernment
.
A
very
proper
and
pleasant
distinction
.
In
the
second
place
/
this
testimonie
brought
in
by
our
brethren
/
is
prooued
to
make
nothing
to
their
purpose
/
by
two
reasons
.
I
grant
in
deed
/
that
you
brethren
puritans
/
saye
the
trueth
as
it
ought
to
be
/
that
bishops
or
ministers
ought
not
to
be
Lords
in
any
wise
/
eyther
as
ministers
/
or
as
ciuill
magistrates
.
Thus
in
deed
it
ought
to
be
/
I
and
my
brethren
the
Bb.
do
grant
vnto
you
.
And
you
knowe
we
would
it
were
so
.
But
you
know
also
that
our
laws
will
haue
Church
gouernours
to
be
Lords
/
and
what
?
should
our
Bishops
(
good
noble
men
)
refuse
that
which
the
law
would
haue
them
to
take
?
Get
you
the
law
to
be
against
their
lordly
callings
/
and
see
whether
they
will
not
giue
ouer
their
Lord
bishopdomes
/
whensoeuer
lawe
compelleth
them
.
And
whensoeuer
they
giue
ouer
/
they
shall
haue
no
cause
to
thanke
suche
enuious
brethren
as
you
are
.
Howsoeuer
it
be
/
you
see
the
Apostle
/
speaking
of
all
sorts
of
ministers
/
by
your
owne
confession
:
speaketh
nothing
of
any
Lord
/
or
Lordly
gouerment
among
them
all
/
and
therefore
speaketh
nothing
of
Church
gouernment
.
Againe
/
all
those
functions
whereof
the
Apostle
maketh
any
mention
/
(
as
my
brother
Bridges
hath
well
noted
)
are
ordayned
to
the
buylding
of
the
bodie
of
Christe
/
in
the
vnitie
of
fayth
and
knowledge
.
Nowe
I
would
anye
puritan
of
you
all
/
durst
say
that
our
Church
gouernors
:
that
is
/
our
venerable
and
worshipfull
Lord
bishops
/
are
ordained
of
God
/
for
the
building
of
his
bodie
/
which
I
know
you
will
say
to
be
done
by
preaching
?
As
though
●
.
bishops
/
being
ciuill
gouernours
should
preach
.
Were
it
meete
(
I
pray
you
)
to
see
Steuen
Gardiner
/
being
then
of
the
priuie
Counsell
in
the
pulpit
?
Counsellors
nowe
/
must
haue
●omething
to
doe
with
pulpit
matters
/
muste
they
I
pray
you
?
Will
you
allow
that
ciuill
gouernours
should
be
ordinarie
preachers
in
your
new
platforme
of
a
reformed
Church
?
I
know
you
will
not
.
And
what
reason
is
it
then
/
that
you
should
require
Bb.
to
be
ordinary
preachers
/
seeing
euery
bishop
is
a
ciuil
gouernour
.
I
tel
you
true
/
I
am
so
far
from
thinking
/
that
bishops
ought
to
be
ordinarie
preachers
/
seeing
they
are
ciuill
gouernours
/
that
I
hold
it
a
sin
for
them
to
preache
ordinarily
.
And
brethren
/
you
doe
not
well
therefore
/
in
vrging
ciuil
gouernours
to
preach
/
especially
seing
you
your selues
/
in
your
platformes
/
are
against
this
point
.
And
because
it
shall
be
seene
that
I
deale
vprightly
betweene
you
and
the
P.P.
prelates
.
I
will
set
downe
my
reason
/
&
answer
it
when
you
can
:
it
shall
be
concluded
I
warrant
you
in
moode
and
figure
.
But
in
deed
I
haue
inuented
a
newe
moode
of
mine
owne
(
for
I
haue
bin
a
great
schooleman
in
my
daies
)
which
containeth
in
it
a
great
misterie
.
The
misterie
I
will
expound
/
it
may
be
in
a
book
for
the
purpose
.
In
the
meane
time
/
if
you
resort
to
my
sonne
Martin
senyor
/
that
worthy
wight
/
he
it
may
be
/
shal
be
able
to
vnfolde
the
secresie
thereof
.
This
is
the
syllogisme
/
the
moode
answereth
vnto
Celarent
,
elder
daughter
to
Barbara
,
and
I
will
haue
it
called
/
Perncanterburikenolde

No

What
say
you
now
brethren
/
would
you
haue
ciuill
gouernors
(
such
as
our
Bishops
are
)
to
preach
?
I
hope
not
.
For
although
I
cannot
deny
/
but
som
of
our
bishops
are
very
great
breakepulpits
/
and
haue
as
marueilous
rawe
gifts
in
preaching
/
as
any
that
euer
came
to
Pauls
wharff
/
yet
surely
I
cannot
see
what
warrant
you
haue
to
vrge
ciuil
officers
to
preach
.
Wherefore
also
you
doe
not
well
/
in
crying
out
against
ciuil
gouernors
/
because
they
preach
not
/
as
though
their
function
were
an
ecclesiastical
function
/
or
as
though
you
would
haue
any
to
preach
who
had
not
an
ecclesiastical
function
.
If
you
demaund
then
/
whether
bishops
be
Ecclesiasticall
or
ciuil
gouernours
.
They
themselues
say
beath
/
and
ai
say
brethren
/
that
for
the
stopping
of
your
meathes
and
other
causes
/
I
wad
counsell
than
/
if
they
wad
be
ruled
bai
me
/
to
be
nether
nother
.
Now
if
yaw
demaund
againe
/
whether
Bishops
sin
in
being
ministers
/
seing
they
are
ciuil
officers
/
or
in
bearing
ciuil
offices
/
seeing
they
are
ministers
.
I
haue
already
shewed
that
ciuil
officers
must
be
no
ministers
.
And
my
brother
London
hath
long
since
affirmed
it
to
be
dangerous
for
the
common
wealth
/
that
ministers
should
be
ciuil
gouernors
:
and
therfore
brethren
/
to
answer
this
question
of
yours
/
you
are
to
know
that
I
am
fully
of
your
brother
Londons
mind
/
who
saith
page
24.
line
19.
of
his
Harborough
.
These
2.
offices
,
I
mean
the
ecclesiasticall
&
ciuil
,
be
so
iumbled
together
,
as
it
may
be
lawful
for
both
parties
to
medle
in
both
functions
,
there
can
be
no
quiet
,
nor
any
well
ordered
common
wealth
.
Nowe
brethren
you
must
not
think
the
worse
of
this
lerned
mans
iudgment
/
because
he
is
a
Bishop
him selfe
,
For
euen
since
he
hath
ioyned
these
2.
offices
together
he
hath
proued
his
owne
saying
to
be
true
for
his
part
/
in
that
his
whole
endeuor
hath
bene
euer
since
he
was
Bishop
/
that
we
should
haue
no
quiet
nor
any
wel
ordered
church
or
common
wealth
.
I
hope
by
this
time
you
see
it
plaine
that
Bishops
sinne
/
both
because
they
are
ciuill
gouernours
/
and
being
ciuill
gouernours
/
because
they
are
bishops
.

Paule
speaketh
of
these
gifts

of
this
building
,
and
of
the
orders
and
ends
thereof
:
therefore
he
speaketh
nothing
of

This
is
put
home
I
trow
/
and
ouerthroweth
the
puritans
out
of
all
cesse

It
is
altogether
as
good
a
reason

as
an
olde
man
yeelded

to
sir
Thomas
More
/
concerning
the
cause

Goodwine

M.D.
2.
reason
to
shew
that
the
place
of
Paul
maketh
nothing
for
ecclesiastical
gouernment
/
is
after
this
sort
.
Paul
in
rekoning
vp
these
gifts
,
referreth
all
to
the
vnitie
in
doctrine
of
fayth
,
and
to
the
holy
conuersation
of
life
.
Ergo
he
maketh
no
mention
of
Ecclesiasticall
order
of
gouernment
.
That
were
a
pitifull
hearing
in
deed
sir
/
that
the
Apostle
should
speake
of
ecclesiastical
gouernment
/
and
speak
not
a
word
of
any
lordlike
gouernment
:
that
the
Apostle
should
make
any
mention
of
ecclesiasticall
gouernours
/
&
not
name
a
Lord
among
them
all
.
Fie
/
fie
/
this
were
too
bad
/
and
my
Lord
of
Canterbury
would
neuer
abide
such
scripture
.
But
in
good
sadnes
(
saith
the
puritans
)
presbyter
Iohn
Bridges
/
will
this
place
of
Paule
prooue
no
part
of
this
gouernment
which
you
oppugne
?
will
it
not
prooue
that
God
hath
ordayned
pastors
/
and
doctors
/
to
continue
in
his
Church
vnto
the
worlds
end
?
No
forsooth
will
it
not
quoth
the
Deane
.
And
I
am
so
farre
from
thinking
that
God
hath
ordained
your
preaching
pastors
/
and
doctors
/
to
continue
alwayes
in
his
Church
/
that
I
haue
made
a
praier

pag

line
28.
of
my
book
(
as
my
brother
Martin
you
know
hath
noted
already
)
that
we
might
neuer
see
that
day
in
England
,
wherein
preaching
might
be
had
in
all
places
.
His
grace
of
Canterburie
(
I
tell
you
)
hath
condemned
the
preaching
of
the
word
(
as
being
the
onely
ordinarie
meanes
to
saluation
)
to
be
an
heresie
.
This
scripture
of
Paule
/
that
God
hath
appointed
preaching
pastors
/
to
continue
in
his
Church
vnto
the
worlds
ende
/
is
a
chiefe
ground
of
the
former
heresie
.
I
will
allow
of
no
such
scripture
I
trow
/
as
may
impech
the
opinion
which
my
●
.
of
Canterb.
conceiued
of
the
preaching
of
the
word
.
You
see
therefore
my
friendes
/
that
M.
Deane
in
this
point
/
will
haue
nothing
to
do
with
you
/
or
Paules
testimonie
.
And
you
are
not
ignorant
I
am
sure
/
howe
soone
all
lordes
would
be
out
of
the
ministerie
/
if
we
had
none
in
England
/
but
the
pastors
spoken
of
by
Paule
/
&
therefore
M.
doctor
hath
prayed
against
this
order
.
Yea
/
and
he
hath
brought
such
a
reson
against
this
your
platform
of
gouernment
/
as
is
iust
Secundum
vsum
Sarum
.
For
in
deed
it
is
popish
/
and
therefore
you
might
smell
it
a
farre
off
.
If
the
Lorde
(
sayth
he
page
62.
)
had
thought
this
gouernement
needful
for
his
Churche
,
then
he
woulde
not
haue
suffered
his
Churche
to
bee
without
the
same
.
But
he
suffered
his
Churche
of
a
long
time
to
be
without
this
gouernment
.
Ergo
he
thought
it
not
needfull
.
Ah
craft
/
craft
/
craft
and
subtiltie
/
that
can
in
iest
deceiue
his
brethren
with
a
popishe
reason
in
this
sort
.
But
my
masters
/
you
must
not
thinke
that
our
brother
Sarum
bringeth
this
in
good
earnest
/
but
onely
to
trie
whether
you
be
so
simple
/
as
you
cannot
know
a
popish
reason
when
you
see
it
.
And
to
this
purpose
/
I
thinke
that
both
his
worship
/
&
Iohn
Whitgifts
grace
/
haue
broght
in
their
writings
/
many
things
that
are
palpable
popish
/
that
they
might
trie
/
whether
of
knowledge
/
or
of
peeuish
and
chollericke
rashnes
/
you
speake
against
their
gouerment
.
Nowe
if
so
be
that
you
could
not
discerne
their
popish
reasons
(
whereof
in
deed
you
shall
finde
great
store
/
euery
third
reason
I
warraunt
you
/
in
all
their
bookes
)
then
they
woulde
haue
this
aduantage
against
you
/
that
you
were
not
able
to
knowe
trueth
from
poperie
.
For
(
might
they
say
)
we
brought
in
papish
resons
of
purpose
,
but
si●lie
fellows
/
thei●
skill
is
so
smal
in
all
kinde
of
learning
/
that
they
cannot
know
a
popishe
reason
/
especially
if
we
can
face
it
out
with
a
bragg
/
that
we
haue
olde
and
new
writers
of
our
side
.
Now
brethren
/
you
must
not
then
/
mislike
your
brother
Bridges
purpose
/
in
bringing
in
this
popishe
syllogisme
.
This
I
speake
/
to
the
ende
you
should
not
crie
out
(
as
some
of
you
haue
done
)
that
our
bishops
haue
no
better
warraunt
for
themselues
then
the
pope
hath
/
for
their
gouernement
.
I
grant
in
deede
/
that
if
you
should
take
M.
deane
at
the
worst
/
you
might
saye
that
he
might
herein
/
reason
as
well
for
the
Masse
/
as
he
doth
for
the
established
gournement
.
As
for
example
/
hee
might
thus
argue
.
If
the
Lord
had
thought
the
Masse
to
haue
bene
a
false
worship
of
him
/
then
he
would
not
haue
suffered
it
so
long
to
haue
continued
/
where
anye
weake
one
should
be
endangered
/
of
being
enforced
to
be
present
thereat
.
But
he
suffered
it
to
continue
a
long
time
/
&c.
Therefore
he
thought
it
not
to
be
a
false
worship
.
I
say
you
must
not
mistake
M.
doctor
in
this
sort
/
but
knowe
that
he
delt
after
the
manner
of
the
schooles
/
wherein
it
is
lawfull
(
as
Thomas
Cartwright
who
hath
bene
professour
of
diuinitie
/
both
in
Cambridge
and
in
Gene●a
/
knoweth
well
inough
)
for
men
to
argue
/
pró
and
contrá
,
as
well
with
/
as
against
the
trueth
:
and
all
is
to
trie
out
the
trueth
/
whiche
is
onely
the
sole
meaning
that
M.D.
hath
not
at
all
thought
off
.
But
I
pray
you
/
let
vs
passe
from
hence
/
vnto
the
64.
pa.
where
you
shal
find
the
calling
of
an
Archbishop
most
notablie
prooued
/
out
of
our
brethrens
owne
words
.
Our
brethren
(
●a
the
cloyster
master
of
Sarum
)
affirme
that
Paule
&
Barnabas
,
ordained
presbyters
,
priestes
or
elders
(
for
thus
M.D.
to
his
neuerlasting
fame
/
hath
full
often
in
his
booke
/
translated
the
greeke
word
presbyteros
)
at
Derbe
,
Iconium
and
Lystra
.
Ergo
,
some
of
these
priestes
or
elders
,
were
ordayned
ouer
whole
towns
,
some
ouer
regions
.
And
what
could
be
more
aptly
spoken
to
the
purpose
/
or
more
fitly
proue
an
Archiepiscopall
calling
?
Now
M.
Fickers
/
parsons
and
currats
/
if
euer
I
hard
better
proofe
in
my
life
/
I
would
all
dumbe
dogges
were
whipped
out
of
the
Churche
.
Now
truely
this
is
sport
alone
.
But
brother
parson
Bridges
/
I
praye
you
tell
me
/
was
there
canonicall
obedience
sworne
to
Archbishopp
Titus
?
What
els
man
.
Did
they
cal
him
my
Lords
grace
to
?
Do
you
dout
of
it
?
Did
his
gentlman
Ussher
go
bare-headed
before
him
?
As
though
he
could
not
be
as
popelike
and
pontificall
/
as
my
Lorde
of
Canterburie
.
But
I
hope
a
pore
hedge
priest
might
haue
his
letters
of
orders
of
him
/
though
he
would
giue
no
bribes
vnto
his
Secretorie
/
cooke
/
butler
/
&c.
Might
he
so
goodman
noddie
?
Then
how
should
his
men
I
pray
you
be
able
to
liue
?
As
though
bishops
should
giue
their
men
any
wages
?
Their
blessing
I
trow
will
serue
their
men
in
steed
of
wages
.

M.
doctor
demaundeth
a
question
/
&
that
is
/
whether
one
man
might
not
haue
diuers
of
these
offices
and
gifts
which
were
in
the
Apostles
time
.
In
deed
brother
parson

we
read
of
neuer
an
Apostle
that
was
a
nonresident

but
of
one
Iudas
/
one
Simon
Magus
/
and
one
Diotrephes
in
all
that
time
.
The
reason
belike
was
/
that
men
wrought
miracles
in
those
dayes
/
whiche
gifte
the
noble
Lords
of
our
cleargie
/
haue
now
bestowed

M.

confirmeth
it
by
the
authoritie

)
A

A
Sermon
vpon

there

M.

Tush
brethren
what
should
you
tell
vs
of
M.D.
meaning
/
he
meaneth
the
sermon
vpon
1.
Cor.
12.
If
you
doe
not
beleeue
me
/
looke
the
255.
page
of
his
booke
/
and
there
you
shall
see
the
sermon
vpon
1.
Cor.
12.
twise
cited
.
M.D.
if
he
were
more
beetleheaded
then
he
is
/
could
not
possible
misse
so
often
in
the
naming
of
the
sermon
/
vpon
Rom.
12.
which
is
so
commonly
knowen
.
It
may
be
in
deede
/
you
neuer
saw
any
sermon
extant
vpon
that
text
:
but
I
warraunt
you
Deane
Iohn
knoweth
the
way
to
Salisburie
/
so
doe
not
many
thousands
of
you
puritans
.
Whye
/
you
neuer
sawe
the
Syriacke
Testament
translated
by
Iunius
(
for
that
which
is
abroade
/
was
done
by
Tremelius
alone
)
but
M.D.
hath
quoted
Iunius
his
Syriack
Testament
.
Why
then
may
he
not
aswell
finde
a
sermon
vpon
1.
Cor
12.
printed
by
Robert
Walde-graue
/
as
a
Syriacke
Testament
of
Iunius
his
trauslation
?
Now
say
the
puritans
what
a
notorious
blocke
is
this
deane
/
who
inasmuch
as
he
hath
heard
that
M.
Tremelius
/
and
M.
Iunius
were
ioyned
together
in
the
translation
of
the
Syble
/
thinketh
therfore
that
Iunius
translated
the
Syriack
Testament
/
which
was
done
by
Tremelius
onely
.
For
shame
my
masters
deale
more
charitably
/
&
beare
with
the
infirmities
of
your
brethren
.
I
grant
in
deede
it
was
M.D.
ouersight
/
in
naming
Iunius
his
Syriacke
Testament
:
and
the
sermon
vpon
1.
Cor.
12.
in
steade
of
Rom.
12.
But
what
then
/
should
you
therefore
take
him
vp
for
it
/
as
though
he
were
the
veriest
asse
in
a
countrie
.
Learned
men
may
easily
commit
such
ouersights
/
especially
quoting
authors
vpon
other
mens
reportes
/
as
M.
D.
hath
done
.
But
it
is
no
maruell
that
you
deale
thus
with
M.
deane
/
when
you
dare
abuse
Antichrist
/
and
say
as
the
author
of
the
Learned
Discourse
hath
done
/
that
this
gouernment
of
yours
continued
in
the
Church
vntil
Antichrist
brought
in
all
kinde
of
false
doctrine
and
confusion
.
If
your
gouernment
had
continued
in
the
Church
vntil
all
kinde
of
false
doctrine
came
in
,
it
had
beene
exercised
without
interruption
vntill
this
day
(
especially
vntill
the
yeare
1587.
wherein
you
made
this
booke
)
For
I
doubt
me
whether
all
kinde
of
false
doctrine
hath
bene
yet
sowen
.
But
your
gouernement
hath
beene
interrupted
long
since
.
Therefore
you
slander
Antichriste
.
They
slander
him
in
deed
/
Iohn
O
Sarum
/
if
they
say
that
hee
brought
in
all
kinde
of
false
doctrine
.
And
you
haue
neuer
prooued
proposition
better
in
your
life
/
then
you
haue
prooued
this
.
For
any
man
that
will
read
your
book
/
or
Iohn
Whit
gifts
/
wil
say
that
Antichrist
broght
not
in
all
kinde
of
false
doctrine
/
if
he
had
/
your
booke
I
am
sure
/
had
not
bene
sold
for
7.
shillings
as
it
is
.
In
the
78.
page
/
M.
D.
sheweth
that
the
office
of
Archbishops
/
and
Lord
bishops
/
are
in
nature
pastorall
/
though
in
dignitie
they
are
of
another
office
and
ministerie
.
And
what
say
you
to
that
brethren
?
Euen
this
say
they
.
In
dignitie
they
are
popes
/
in
office
proud
prelats
/
and
in
ministerie
/
plain
dumb
dogs
for
the
most
part
.
This
is
proued

hath
bene
prooued

and
will
be
prooued
/
to
the
proudest
of
the
Bishops
teeth
/
if
they
doe
dispute
with
vs
in
these
points
.
I
would
wish
you
/
my
puritan
masters

to
keepe
you
wel
while
you
are
well
.
It
may
bee
you

answer
this

of
yours
