A37445	The parson's counsellor with the law of tithes or tithing in two books : the first sheweth the order every parson, vicar, &c. ought to observe in obtaining a spiritual preferment, and what duties are incumbent upon him ... : the second shews in what manner all sorts of tithes, offerings, mortuaries, and other church-duties are to be paid ... / written by Sir Simon Degge, Kt.

lord_n ordain_v that_o they_o that_o preach_v the_o gospel_n shall_v live_v of_o the_o gospel_n what_o effect_n this_o doctrine_n wrought_v among_o the_o primitive_a christian_n you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o four_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o as_o many_o as_o be_v possessor_n of_o house_n or_o land_n sell_v they_o and_o bring_v the_o price_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v sell_v and_o lay_v they_o down_o at_o the_o apostle_n foot_n and_o distribution_n be_v make_v to_o every_o man_n according_a as_o he_o have_v need_v but_o the_o christian_n of_o this_o present_a age_n be_v so_o far_o from_o sell_v their_o house_n and_o land_n and_o lay_v the_o price_n at_o the_o apostle_n foot_n that_o they_o will_v rather_o detain_v that_o from_o the_o clergy_n which_o by_o law_n and_o right_n be_v due_a to_o they_o but_o certain_o have_v the_o sincerity_n of_o the_o primitive_a christian_n continue_v i_o shall_v never_o have_v need_v to_o have_v set_v pen_n to_o the_o paper_n upon_o this_o subject_n i_o be_o now_o about_o which_o be_v the_o law_n of_o tithe_n or_o tithe_n a_o duty_n establish_v by_o the_o law_n of_o this_o as_o of_o other_o nation_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o secular_a clergy_n and_o for_o their_o sake_n it_o be_v that_o i_o have_v undertake_v this_o work_n there_o be_v a_o tithing_n table_n publish_v many_o year_n ago_o by_o a_o bachelor_n of_o law_n wherein_o he_o have_v learned_o set_v forth_o the_o manner_n of_o tithing_n by_o the_o canon_n and_o ecclesiastical_a law_n but_o those_o law_n and_o the_o common_a law_n of_o this_o realm_n differ_v in_o many_o thing_n wherein_o the_o common_a law_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v that_o tithing_n table_n have_v often_o lead_v both_o parson_n and_o

i_o do_v by_o the_o persuasion_n of_o some_o reverend_n divine_v first_o make_v some_o animadversion_n upon_o that_o tithing_n table_n but_o when_o i_o have_v do_v that_o consider_v there_o be_v many_o more_o thing_n in_o relation_n to_o tithing_n than_o i_o can_v convenient_o apply_v to_o that_o text_n concern_v prescription_n custom_n composition_n and_o other_o privilege_n beside_o the_o law_n concern_v offering_n mortuary_n and_o other_o church_n duty_n fit_a for_o all_o man_n to_o know_v as_o well_o lay_v as_o clergy_n i_o adventure_v upon_o this_o large_a work_n which_o i_o the_o rather_o do_v because_o i_o do_v not_o find_v any_o other_o that_o have_v publish_v any_o complete_a work_n in_o this_o kind_n or_o to_o reconcile_v the_o common_a and_o canon_n law_n that_o kind_n of_o learning_n lie_v disperse_v in_o our_o law_n book_n i_o have_v therefore_o in_o favour_n of_o the_o parson_n and_o vicar_n take_v up_o a_o former_a resolution_n and_o adventure_v to_o expose_v myself_o to_o the_o public_a censure_n and_o though_o i_o can_v promise_v any_o perfection_n in_o this_o work_n yet_o i_o dare_v presume_v to_o say_v it_o be_v the_o most_o perfect_a work_n of_o this_o nature_n yet_o extant_a though_o i_o can_v pretend_v to_o nothing_o of_o it_o but_o the_o error_n and_o mistake_n which_o i_o will_v be_v thankful_a to_o any_o body_n that_o will_v friendly_o

who_o favour_n i_o have_v write_v it_o because_o it_o come_v from_o the_o pen_n of_o one_o who_o profess_v himself_o a_o common_a lawyer_n but_o in_o my_o judgement_n in_o this_o nation_n wherein_o the_o common_a law_n and_o custom_n of_o the_o country_n prevail_v against_o the_o canon_n and_o ecclesiastical_a law_n this_o subject_n be_v not_o altogether_o improper_a if_o not_o most_o proper_a for_o a_o common_a lawyer_n and_o true_o i_o have_v through_o this_o discourse_n deal_v with_o as_o impartial_a a_o hand_n as_o the_o matter_n will_v admit_v and_o though_o the_o clergy_n may_v think_v it_o to_o their_o prejudice_n that_o i_o have_v at_o large_a set_v forth_o the_o several_a discharge_v by_o which_o land_n be_v free_v from_o the_o payment_n of_o tithe_n yet_o in_o that_o i_o have_v give_v they_o a_o clear_a light_n which_o land_n can_v be_v so_o privilege_v and_o what_o prescription_n and_o modus_fw-la decimandi_fw-la be_v not_o good_a be_v well_o assure_v that_o there_o be_v more_o land_n at_o this_o day_n escape_v payment_n of_o tithe_n upon_o pretence_n of_o some_o privilege_n to_o which_o they_o have_v no_o right_n than_o those_o that_o pay_v tithe_n and_o may_v legal_o be_v discharge_v but_o when_o i_o have_v do_v my_o best_a endeavour_n to_o serve_v the_o reverend_a clergy_n i_o can_v give_v they_o encouragement_n to_o depend_v upon_o their_o own_o

little_a tract_n concern_v tithe_n but_o i_o consider_v there_o be_v many_o other_o thing_n almost_o as_o useful_a for_o a_o clergyman_n to_o know_v as_o the_o law_n of_o tithe_n and_o though_o mr._n hughes_n of_o graves-inn_n many_o year_n since_o publish_v a_o learned_a tract_n which_o he_o entitle_v the_o parson_n law_n yet_o there_o be_v many_o more_o thing_n necessary_a for_o a_o clergyman_n
