shall_v say_v the_o contrary_a have_v in_o their_o say_a late_a synod_n decree_v that_o all_o who_o shall_v affirm_v that_o either_o the_o ceremony_n in_o controversy_n be_v superstitious_a and_o

that_o not_o only_o the_o minister_n suspend_v and_o deprive_v but_o many_o thousand_o other_o in_o this_o kingdom_n do_v affirm_v and_o maintain_v these_o thing_n they_o stand_v all_o by_o virtue_n of_o those_o canon_n excommunicate_a and_o stand_v in_o that_o estate_n if_o just_o be_v by_o consequence_n in_o the_o case_n of_o damnation_n yea_o so_o as_o die_v resolut_o in_o these_o point_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v damn_v everlasting_o either_o therefore_o the_o prelate_n shall_v show_v themselves_o to_o be_v antichristian_a and_o that_o in_o a_o high_a degree_n in_o send_v without_o

exhortation_n &_o argument_n to_o persuade_v they_o to_o conformity_n answer_v whatsoever_o they_o can_v then_o object_v why_o they_o shall_v not_o conform_v therefore_o what_o need_v they_o now_o to_o enter_v into_o that_o trouble_n again_o answer_n this_o be_v not_o true_a i._o they_o never_o use_v any_o one_o argument_n to_o the_o purpose_n but_o such_o as_o have_v be_v sufficient_o answer_v we_o know_v not_o how_o often_o 2._o their_o admonition_n be_v mere_a formal_a wherein_o also_o the_o minister_n be_v exceed_o wrong_a divers_a of_o they_o who_o be_v very_o poor_a man_n and_o some_o of_o their_o live_n not_o above_o 40._o some_o 30._o some_o 20._o pound_n by_o the_o year_n &_o their_o charge_n of_o wife_n child_n and_o family_n very_o great_a be_v force_v to_o come_v in_o the_o

and_o at_o length_n their_o deprivation_n for_o their_o labour_n 3._o we_o desire_v that_o the_o prelate_n will_v publish_v to_o the_o view_n of_o all_o the_o world_n those_o argument_n which_o they_o use_v and_o the_o minister_n do_v not_o or_o can_v not_o answer_v 4._o this_o be_v a_o most_o certain_a truth_n &_o will_v be_v justify_v to_o the_o face_n of_o they_o all_o that_o many_o of_o the_o minister_n demand_v of_o they_o reason_n and_o argument_n according_a to_o the_o form_n of_o the_o king_n proclamation_n and_o they_o refuse_v to_o give_v any_o yea_o divers_a of_o they_o sundry_a time_n offer_v their_o proposition_n and_o reason_n to_o the_o prelate_n promise_v upon_o their_o reasonable_a answer_n with_o out_o any_o further_a question_n to_o conform_v and_o to_o this_o day_n they_o never_o give_v they_o any_o 5._o this_o may_v the_o more_o incite_v they_o to_o accept_v of_o this_o offer_n for_o by_o this_o mean_v they_o may_v make_v know_v to_o the_o world_n those_o great_a argument_n and_o resolution_n which_o then_o they_o use_v and_o may_v set_v they_o down_o with_o mature_a and_o advise_v deliberation_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o their_o proceed_n 6._o the_o only_a argument_n to_o purpose_n that_o they_o use_v be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v his_o majesty_n pleasure_n it_o shall_v be_v so_o thereby_o lay_v the_o imputation_n and_o envy_n of_o their_o unjust_a proceed_n upon_o he_o 2._o opposition_n the_o minister_n can_v say_v no_o more_o than_o they_o have_v say_v &_o write_v already_o and_o which_o we_o have_v answer_v often_o and_o why_o then_o shall_v we_o try_v these_o thing_n any_o further_o answer_n 1._o this_o be_v more_o than_o the_o prelate_n know_v some_o of_o the_o minister_n have_v late_o say_v more_o to_o some_o point_n then_o have_v be_v say_v before_o and_o upon_o such_o occasion_n as_o may_v be_v offer_v by_o such_o a_o conference_n they_o may_v say_v more_o them_z they_o have_v say_v yet_o 2._o the_o prelate_n by_o their_o corrupt_a answer_n in_o their_o late_a publish_a writing_n have_v give_v they_o occasion_n to_o say_v more_o than_o yet_o have_v be_v say_v 3._o this_o they_o be_v able_a to_o make_v good_a that_o that_o which_o they_o have_v say_v already_o have_v not_o be_v answer_v as_o yet_o and_o therefore_o this_o conference_n be_v desire_v that_o these_o matter_n may_v be_v further_o try_v 3._o opposition_n it_o be_v dangerous_a that_o matter_n establish_v by_o law_n shall_v be_v thus_o call_v into_o question_n and_o dispute_v of_o as_o matter_n doubtful_a answer_n 1._o these_o matter_n be_v not_o now_o new_o call_v into_o question_n but_o they_o have_v be_v from_o time_n to_o time_n oppose_v against_o and_o so_o will_v be_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n at_o least_o wise_a so_o long_o as_o so_o many_o church_n of_o god_n in_o other_o kingdom_n profess_v and_o practice_v as_o they_o do_v and_o the_o rather_o because_o many_o great_a and_o famous_a light_n of_o the_o church_n both_o beyond_o sea_n and_o at_o home_n in_o their_o monument_n that_o shall_v last_v to_o all_o posterity_n have_v testify_v against_o they_o this_o therefore_o be_v not_o to_o call_v a_o matter_n which_o be_v out_o of_o question_n into_o question_n but_o to_o call_v a_o matter_n already_o in_o question_n to_o a_o direct_a and_o final_a determination_n 2._o it_o can_v but_o be_v rather_o very_o profitable_a unto_o any_o state_n such_o rule_n and_o condition_n as_o be_v here_o propound_v be_v observe_v to_o debate_v and_o dispute_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o this_o be_v of_o any_o humane_a law_n whatsoever_o for_o by_o this_o mean_n if_o a_o law_n be_v just_a it_o will_v be_v a_o honour_n
