incredibile
almost
to

wherby

like
princes

Here
also
they
have
such
strange
devices
to
get
monyes

to
satisfy
their
owne
ends
,

others
corrupt
humours

playne

it
coms
to
passe

that
allthough
the
fact

cleare

it
shall
escape
the
censure
of
the
lawe

as
appears
most
playnly

some
having

afterward

fact

incredible

some

HEere
Christian
Reader
,
I
wold
have
thee
to
mynd
that
all
theire
extortions
,
formerly

are
as
nothing
,
in

,
of
these
that
followe
,
for
here
they
will
pretend
lawe
,
where
none
is

&
make
them
that
be
,
to
stand
asyde
,
to
serve
their
turns
,

in
such
strange
devices

intrap
men

spin

such
long
threeds
with
widdowes

fatherles
,
who
for
the
most

are
weake
,

unskillfull
,
&
therfore
a
fit
prey
for
these
kytes
to
sease
upon
,
as
is
allmost
incredible
,
having
such
shewes
of

&
such
turning
devices
,
to
bring
things
about
,
that
a
modest
man
,
may
blush

their
impiety

shal
be

Thus
have
I
run
over
all
these
particulars
one
by
one
,
to
this
end
that
the
Reader
might
be
informed
of
their
unjust
proceedings
in
every
particular
,
wherin
I
have
onely
shewed
thee
what
is
taken
by
waye
of
inhaunsed
fees
.
But
now
give
me
leave
,
in
a
word
,
to
give
thee
a
taste
of
their
innovated
fees
,
that
is
of
fees
taken
for
which
there
is
no
lawe
,
nor
colour
of
lawe
,
as
also
to
discover
to
thee
some
other
of
their
practises
,
to
increase
their
fees
,
which
shal
be
done
very
breifly
.
And
first
take
notice
,
they
have
changed
the
oath
of
their
church-wardens
into
that
it
is
now
become
of
the
nature
of
an
inquisition
oath
,
wherby
they
rack
the
consciences
of
men
,
&
by
it
doo
drawe
out
of
them
,
such
presentations
to
their
courts
,
as
otherwise
they
should
not
meete
withall
,
and
this
is
done
by
them
since
the
yeare
1624.
what
it
then
was
,
&
now
is
,
may
at
large
appeere
by
comparing
them
together
,
by
the
new
oath
they
compell
men
to
sweare
,
to
present
,
all
whom
they
suspect
,
for
want
of
conformity
to
any
of
the
articles
given
them
in
charge
:
what
the
effect
of
this
oath
is
to
them
,
is
playne
in
these
particulars
.
First
hereby
they
meete
with
some
tender
conscience
,
which
dare
not
medle
with
this
oath
,
&
then
they
must
buye
it
of
,
for
their
monyes
:
&
hereby
greate
&
large
fees
comes
to
them
,
2.
ly
.
they
meete
with
some
also
,
that
will
not
come
to
this
,
but
will
reason
out
the
matter
with
them
,
these
they
excommunicate
,
(
even
to
death
as
it
were
)
if
they
stand
it
out
with
them
,
then
a
significavit
,
or
els
,
into
the
high
commission
with
them
,
and
if
there
once
,
what
the
consequences
wil
be
,
I
spare
to
write
,
&
if
they
take
the
oath
,
&
that
the
yeare
comes
about
,
&
they
present
no
body
,
then
they
put
him
to
his
oath
,
upon
his
former
oath
,
and
wil
make
him
to
sweare
whether
all
his
parish
,
both
minister
&
people
doe
duly
observe
all
the
articles
given
them
in
charge
,
&
thus
the
consciences
of
men
,
are
taintered
out
upon
this
rack
,
therby
to
confesse
,
who
&
what
they
be
,
&
in
what
parte
they
have
offended
against
the
premises
,
wherby
their
courts
come
to
be
filled
with
complaints
against
men
,
for
toyes
&
tryfles
.
3ly
.
If
any
sonne
of
Belyall
through
malice
,
envy
,
or
what
grounde
soever
,
will
sue
any
so
sworne
according
to
the
tenour
of
his
oath
,
for
perjury
in
not
presenting
either
minister
or
people
in
neglect
of
any
of
these
devysed
articles
given
him
in
charge
,
he
shall
proceede
against
him
,
as
against
a
perjured
person
,
&
shall
have
all
favour
&
respect
among
them
,
with
all
the
ayde
they
can
affoarde
them
,
even
to
the
utter
undoeing
of
the
partye
so
sued
,
as
myne
owne
experience
hath
proved
.
Fourthly
:
to
the
intent
this
oath
might
be
made
the
more
officious
to
them
,
&
offencive
to
others
,
they
have
added
divers
new
articles
of
late
yeares
,
&
by
vertue
of
this
oath
,
doe
binde
all
their
church
Officers
to
see
them
executed
,
&
to
present
the
neglect
thereof
,
in
which
how
contrary
to
the
lawes
of
England
,
they
doe
proceede
,
I
leave
to
be
skanned
by
them
who
are
judiciously
wyse
.
And
now
for
their
fees
,
take
notice
,
that
as
the
lawe
alowes
them
not
to
take
any
thing
for
this
booke
,
nor
once
so
much
as
names
what
should
be
given
for
it
,
they
take
12.
d.
&
sometymes
1.
s
.
4.
d.
Secondly
:
wheras
but
one
booke
ought
to
be
given
out
for
one
yeare
yet
they
compell
men
to
take
two
,
at
their
price
.
Thirdly
:
they
compell
their
officers
to
paye
for
their
oathes
,
where
nothing
is
due
.
Fourthly
:
they
will
let
no
bills
passe
the
court
,
but
such
as
are
of
their
owne
making
,
for
which
they
take
6.
d.
Fiftly
:
these
bills
will
not
passe
unles
one
or
other
be
presented
.
Sixtly
:
what
silencing
,
&
deposing
,
excommunicating
,
&
imprisoning
of
Gods
people
for
not
conforming
to
this
booke
of
articles
,
and
how
greatly
they
increase
their
fees
therby
,
and
what
summe
,
&
summes
of
monyes
are
daylie
brought
into
their
treasuries
therby
,
is
easy
for
all
to
understand
.
Seaventhly
:
to
the
end
that
they
may
freely
preye
upon
the
bodyes
&
goods
of
men
,
&
houlde
men
in
bondage
to
them selves
,
they
have
taken
out
all
these
articles
out
of
the
booke
which
concern
their
owne
behaviour
,
&
might
any
waye
tend
to
the
benefit
of
the
subject
,
as
may
appeare
at
large
,
by
comparing
their
bookes
now
,
with
their
bookes
for
the
yeare
1624.
Eightly
:
wheras
they
should
maintaine
a
table
of
the
rates
of
all
fees
in
every
office
of
the
court
,
that
all
whom
it
concerns
might
come
to
take
a
copy
of
it
,
they
have
of
purpose
taken
it
away
,
and
doe
persecute
them
to
death
(
as
it
were
)
that
doe
call
for
it
.
see
Cannon
136.
Ninthly
:
what
fees
are
dayly
given
,
&
taken
for
graunting
of
administrations
to
this
man
:
and
not
an
other
,
yea
somtymes
to
the
unlawfull
party
,
is
not
all
together
unknowen
,
which
practise
produceth
this
two
foulde
effect
:
it
somtymes
deposeth
the
lawfull
heyre
of
his
inheritance
,
or
secondly
causeth
unnecessary
&
endles
suits
in
their
owne
courtes
,
even
to
the
undoeing
of
many
a
mans
estate
,
thus
as
a
cage
is
full
of
birds
,
so
are
their
howses
full
of
deceyte
.
Tenthly
:
what
other
devices
to
get
monyes
,
they
have
,
may
appeere
in
their
delaying
&
protractinge
causes
,
continuances
of
suits
upon
suits
,
demurrings
,
some
of
their
proctors
offering
,
that
for
so
much
by
the
yeare
,
as
he
shall
agree
for
,
with
the
partye
whose
cause
is
bad
,
he
will
hould
the
opposite
party
from
tryall
7.
yeares
,
do
what
he
can
,
and
at
last
,
force
him
to
agree
for
halfe
his
right
.
Eleventhly
:
To
the
end
that
strength
may
be
in
the
hand
of
the
oppressor
,
end
none
to
deliver
the
oppressed
,
nor
no
place
left
for
the
innocent
to
escape
,
they
have
made
them selves
masters
of
the
hygh
commission
house
,
that
if
any
doe
but
mute
against
theire
proceedings
they
get
him
thither
,
&
then
he
is
gone
,
either
he
must
flie
,
or
els
spend
his
estate
,
conscience
&
all
,
or
to
their
new
erected
prison
,
to
Newgate
,
Colehowse
,
the
Clincke
,
or
the
Counter
must
be
his
dwelling
,
one
of
these
he
cannot
avoyd
.
Good
Reader
,
if
I
should
relate
all
the
cariages
in
their
commissions
and
purgations
,
changes
of
pennance
&
the
like
,
I
should
both
weary
thee
,
&
my selfe
too
,
what
devices
&
turnings
of
things
about
there
is
,
I
leave
to
thy
owne
experience
to
obserue
,
&
what
summes
of
monyes
are
taken
for
these
things
,
were
intollerable
to
relate
,
&
also
their
devices
to
bring
men
on
bare
crymes
without
proofe
,
and
what
is
daylie
payd
among
them
,
in
these
causes
,
experience
shewes
the
truth
of
.
For
probats
of
wills
,
&
administrations
,
I
have
shewed
before
.
I
will
now
procede
to
shew
their
sinfull
abuse
of
that
sentence
of
excommunication
among
them
,
which
yet
is
the
only
weapon
they
fight
withall
,
by
which
not
a
litle
profit
&
gayne
,
doth
day
lie
acrew
to
them
&
their
depending
officers
,
and
by
which
they
hould
mens
soules
in
tyrannicall
bondage
,
&
by
which
they
hooke
not
a
litle
profit
to
them selves
,
making
it
the
very
snare
&
ginne
to
catch
men
,
as
experience
proves
,
every
man
being
so
daunted
at
it
,
as
if
inded
what
they
so
sinfully
doe
,
were
ratyfied
in
heaven
,
in
which
for
thy
better
information
,
I
will
open
these
things
.
-
1.
I
will
shew
what
this
censure
is
according
to
the
ordinance
of
Christ
,
in
the
Gospel
.
-
2.
Who
was
the
author
of
it
.
-
3.
To
what
ende
it
was
ordayned
in
the
church
of
Christ
.
-
4.
The
greate
benefit
of
it
in
the
church
.
-
5.
By
whom
it
is
to
be
administered
.
-
6.
How
it
differs
from
this
censure
now
in
use
among
us
.
For
the
first
,
we
must
know
that
this
censure
is
a
solemne
&
fearfull
,
&
powerfull
censure
of
the
church
,
cutting-off
lawfully
,
&
according
to
Gods
word
,
casting
out
of
their
publik
socyety
,
&
present
followship
,
all
such
as
publikly
offend
in
some
greivous
cryme
,
or
be
obstinat
contemners
of
the
lawfull
admonitions
of
the
church
for
private
faults
,
that
by
such
shame
they
may
be
driven
to
repentance
and
others
by
their
example
be
kept
from
the
infection
of
sin
,
&
is
warranted
by
these
script
.
Mat.

Cor.

For
the
Authour
,
it
was
no
other
but
the
Lord
Iesus
Christ
,
whose
lawes
&
ordinances
are
all
unchangable
by
man
,
&
to
be
kept
pure
&
unrebukable
,
till
the
apearing
of
the
Lord
Iesus
Christ
,
as
appeares
by
that
1.
Tim.
6.

compared
with
Mat.
18.
17.
where
an
expresse
commaund
is
given
to
tell
the
church
.
3.
The
ende
for
which
it
was
ordayned
,
was
three
fould
:
first
,
in
respect
of
the
party
offending
it
is
for
the
destruction
of
the
flesh
,
that
the
soule
may
be
saved
in
the
daye
of
the
Lord
1.
Cor.

Secondly
in
regarde
of
others
,
that
by
their
example
,
they
may
learne
not
to
blaspheme
.
1
Tim.
1.
20.
Thirdly
:
in
regard
of
the
whole
body
of
the
church
,
that
they
may
be
purged
from
the
old
leaven
of
sinne
,
as
appears
1.
Cor.
5.
8.
and
these
are
the
ends
,
&
no
private
respect
.
4.
The
benefite
of
these
ordinances
in
the
church
,
appeares
by
this
.
1.
By
these
ordinances
,
the
superfluous
members
of
the
church
,
are
kept
from
hurting
and
annoying
the
rest
of
the
body
,
for
it
is
Gods
pruning
knife
,
wherby
he
cutts
off
every
branch
in
his
vyne
,
that
bringeth
not
forth
good
fruite
,
that
so
those
which
doe
bring
forth
some
fruit
may
be
purged
,
to
the
end
they
may
bring
forth
more
fruit
Iohn
.
15.
Secondly
:
hereby
are
kept
out
all
those
that
are
openly
discovered
to
be
profane
and
wicked
,
from
polluting
the
ordinances
of
God
:
by
it
the
wicked
,
&
sinne
it selfe
,
is
greatly
stopped
in
their
course
,
yea
this
is
yet
more
,
the
church
is
terrible
to
the
wicked
,
as
an
armye
with
banners
,
for
this
ordinance
of
God
,
being
in
the
right
use
of
it
,
is
as
terrible
as
death
it selfe
.
Thirdly
,
hereby
is
it
,
Gods
Church
is
fenced
(
as
with
a
wall
)
that
the
wild
boore
out
of
the
forrest
,
&
the
foxes
that
destroy
the
vines
,
cannot
enter
,
or
if
they
doe
through
their
craft
,
yet
by
this
ordinance
of
God
,
the
church
can
be
purged
of
them
.
Thus
Paule
purged
the
church
of
Hymeneus
&
Alexander
1.
Tim.

Fourthly
,
The
setting
up
of
this
ordinaunce
in
all
the
parts
of
it
,
wold
indeed
make
the
church
beautifull
,
&
the
glory
of
this
second
temple
,
to
exceede
the
first
:
whose
hart
can
choose
then
to
be
affected
with
the
want
of
so
usefull
an
ordinance
as
this
is
.
And
who
can
see
any
man
running
to
his
owne
howse
,
letting
the
Lords
housely
waste
&
not
mourne
for
it
?
alas
the
profane
,
doe
not
now
as
in
old
,
com
onely
to
the
outer
courte
,
but
into
the
holyest
of
all
,
&
pollute
all
the
holy
things
of
God
therin
:
but
oh
the
cvill
tyme
in
which
we
are
fallen
,
in
which
peace
&
plenty
brings
security
,
every
man
running
to
his
owne
howse
,
&
thinking
that
must
be
builded
with
hewen
stones
&
timber
,
hewen
by
the
skill
of
the
builder
,
but
Gods
howse
may
be
builded
with
stones
,
as
they
come
out
of
the
rock
,
or
trees
as
they
growe
in
the
forest
,
without
any
difference
a
respect
at
all
.
Fiftly
,
the
persons
in
whom
it
rests
are
the
body
of
the
church
being
met
together
in
one
place
,
the
grave
elder
being
as
the
mouth
of
the
rest
,
in
pronounceing
of
the
sentence
.
Sixtly
,
the
difference
between
this
ordinance
of
Christ
,
and
that
in
use
among
them
apeares
in
these
things
.
1.
In
regard
of
the
Authour
,
the
one
being
of
Christ
,
the
other
of
Antichrist
:
it
being
the
same
for
nature
&
administration
now
,
that
it
was
when
he
ruled
among
us
,
&
the
same
now
in
use
in
his
owne
kingdome
,
therfore
not
to
be
respected
nor
submitted
unto
by
the
subjects
of
the
kingdome
of
Christ
,
seeing
every
subject
ought
to
be
governed
by
the
scepter
of
his
owne
kinge
,
&
that
because
he
is
his
kinge
.
2.
They
differ
in
nature
,
the
owne
is
divine
,
&
heavenly
:
the
other
is
sinfull
and
wicked
,
the
one
is
ahe
truth
of
God
:
the
other
a
lye
in
the
right
hands
of
them
that
put
them
forth
.
3.
They
differ
in
the
ende
of
them
,
one
is
onely
for
the
gaininge
of
sinners
,
&
to
purge
the
church
of
them
:
the
other
to
gaine
monyes
,
&
to
Lord
over
the
bodyes
,
goods
,
soules
&
consciences
of
men
.
4.
They
differ
in
the
maner
of
administration
,
the
one
vsed
as
the
last
meanes
for
the
gaining
of
a
sinner
,
when
nothing
els
will
,
&
therfore
never
used
,
but
for
sins
duly
convicted
&
obstinatly
stood
in
:
the
other
used
sinfully
for
toyes
to
get
monyes
by
,
&
to
be
as
a
snare
or
net
,
to
catch
men
by
.
5.
In
regard
of
the
manner
,
the
one
is
administred
by
the
body
of
the
church
,
being
met
together
in
one
place
:
the
other
alone
by
some
one
man
.
And
by
these
things
we
may
see
what
cause
men
have
to
feare
this
censure
,
as
if
what
they
sinfully
doe
,
were
confirmed
in
heaven
,
&
God
doth
indeed
poure
shame
&
contempt
on
them
&
their
Censures
,
for
who
sees
not
all
men
to
esteeme
of
it
,
as
it
is
,
for
all
men
see
it
is
not
the
destruction
of
the
flesh
,
but
of
the
man
,
&
his
monyes
,
that
they
seeke
.
And
now
to
speak
one
word
about
the
oath
by
which
officers
are
sworne
,
let
the
oath
it self
be
minded
the
form
wherof
here
standeth
.
You
shall
sweare
that
you
and
every
of
you
shall
duely
and
diligently
inform
your selves
of
these
articles
given
you
in
charge
,
and
that
all
favour
,
hatred
,
through
feare
or
anie
other
corrupt
affection
,
set
aside
,
you
shall
present
all
and
every
such
person
now
or
lately
of
your
parish
,
which
hath
committed
anie
offence
comprised
in
anie
of
these
articles
,
or
which
are
vehemently
suspected
or
defamed
of
anie
such
offence
,
wherin
you
shall
deale
according
to
an
upright
conscience
,
neither
presenting
,
nor
sparing
to
present
anie
person
contrary
to
truth
,
so
help
you
God
,
and
his
faithfull
promise
in
Jesus
Christ
.
How
farr
this
oath
is
chaunged
from
that
it
was
in
the
years
before
1624.
let
the
reader
judge
.
The
evills
contayned
in
this
oath
are
briefly
these
.
First
whereas
an
oath
ought
to
bee
done
in
righteousnes
,
in
truth
,
and
in
judgement
,
this
is
unrighteously
taken
and
imposed
,
and
without
judgment
,
as
appears
in
these
particulars
.
1.
In
that
it
is
not
imposed
by
a
lawfull
Magistrate
.
2.
It
swervs
from
my
allegiance
to
other
lawes
besides
the
laws
of
the
land
,
and
servs
to
all
those
inventions
that
a
Lord
Bishop
can
thrust
into
an
article
booke
,
which
is
contrary
to
the
statute
of
25.
Henry
8.
and
1.
Elizabeth
.
Thirdly
it
binds
me
to
a
necessity
of
sining
on
one
hand
or
other
,
either
I
must
present
my
neighbour
for
toyes
,
yea
for
mere
suspicious
without
grownd
,
or
breake
my
oath
,
and
whoever
thou
art
that
takest
it
,
thou
bindst
thyselfe
by
this
oath
to
submit
thyself
,
and
so
hast
made
thyself
the
servant
of
sinfull
man
,
yea
by
this
oath
as
an
enemy
to
God
,
a
persecutour
of
his
saints
,
and
dost
sitt
under
the
banner
of
Antichrist
,
in
that
thou
hast
put
to
thine
hand
and
sworn
with
thy
mouth
to
put
all
such
lawes
and
articles
in
execution
,
and
pursue
those
that
doe
not
the
same
,
consider
that
in
these
words
,
so
help
me
God
thou
dost
call
God
to
witnes
thy
faithfullnes
in
these
things
,
and
dost
invocate
his
name
,
that
if
thou
dost
faile
to
doe
according
to
the
tenour
of
this
oath
,
he
would
doe
so
to
thee
,
and
more
likewise
,
that
is
,
bring
some
eminent
judgment
on
thee
,
consider
these
things
and
fear
and
tremble
.
