know_v they_o all_o to_o be_v so_o authorise_v by_o his_o majesty_n as_o they_o be_v who_o have_v full_a and_o sufficient_a authority_n by_o his_o highness_n title_n &_o prerogative_n confirm_v unto_o he_o by_o express_a law_n otherwise_o so_o to_o do_v and_o therefore_o we_o can_v be_v now_o ignorant_a but_o that_o our_o reverend_a father_n the_o bishop_n have_v thereby_o authority_n to_o urge_v such_o minister_n thereunto_o as_o be_v under_o their_o jurisdiction_n at_o such_o time_n and_o in_o such_o case_n and_o upon_o such_o occasion_n and_o in_o such_o manner_n as_o be_v express_v in_o the_o say_a canon_n and_o also_o under_o the_o penalty_n to_o the_o refuser_n then_o specify_v in_o the_o same_o wherefore_o as_o i_o say_v of_o the_o former_a so_o i_o must_v needs_o say_v of_o this_o so_o far_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o within_o the_o compass_n thereof_o either_o in_o the_o own_o nature_n or_o as_o it_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o order_n of_o our_o church_n and_o the_o governor_n thereof_o contrary_a either_o to_o sound_v faith_n or_o good_a manner_n teach_v in_o god_n word_n conscience_n in_o respect_n of_o they_o and_o this_o their_o authority_n which_o they_o have_v now_o by_o law_n or_o canon_n though_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o bare_a nature_n of_o every_o thing_n within_o the_o reach_n of_o the_o same_o without_o all_o question_n do_v bind_v we_o for_o the_o church_n good_a and_o our_o own_o to_o yield_v thereunto_o and_o this_o be_v certain_a the_o first_o article_n touch_v his_o majesty_n just_a title_n and_o supremacy_n therein_o set_v down_o &_o the_o last_o touch_v the_o book_n of_o article_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o concern_v faith_n &_o the_o sacrament_n all_o man_n of_o our_o religion_n &_o profession_n that_o hold_v

thereof_o so_o to_o do_v the_o question_n therefore_o concern_v this_o point_n lie_v in_o this_o whether_o the_o rest_n contain_v in_o these_o three_o article_n mention_v in_o that_o 36_o canon_n &_o in_o the_o form_n there_o set_v down_o may_v be_v yield_v unto_o with_o a_o safe_a &_o good_a conscience_n whereunto_o first_o i_o say_v that_o compare_v the_o article_n where_o unto_o now_o subscription_n be_v require_v with_o the_o 3_o that_o former_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v urge_v touch_v either_o the_o whole_a or_o the_o rest_n now_o only_o in_o question_n i_o find_v no_o great_a

much_o the_o better_a and_o as_o for_o the_o second_o it_o be_v word_n for_o word_n the_o same_o it_o be_v and_o that_o require_v that_o by_o our_o subscription_n thereunto_o we_o only_o advouch_v
