will_v not_o here_o mention_v several_a other_o ceremony_n use_v among_o the_o first_o christian_n as_o to_o mingle_v water_n with_o wine_n to_o signify_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n have_v a_o cleanse_a virtue_n in_o it_o which_o mystery_n be_v represent_v by_o the_o water_n which_o flow_v with_o the_o blood_n from_o our_o saviour_n side_n as_o to_o give_v milk_n with_o honey_n to_o drink_v unto_o baptize_v person_n to_o signify_v that_o they_o be_v like_o new_a bear_v babe_n who_o ought_v to_o desire_v the_o sweet_a and_o sincere_a milk_n of_o the_o word_n and_o as_o to_o stand_v up_o in_o all_o their_o devotion_n from_o easter_n to_o whitsuntide_n to_o signify_v that_o christ_n be_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a because_o though_o the_o instance_n here_o mention_v may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o persuade_v we_o to_o follow_v their_o example_n in_o the_o use_n of_o ceremony_n those_o that_o i_o have_v bring_v out_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n ought_v whole_o to_o convince_v we_o it_o be_v then_o certain_a that_o there_o be_v lawful_a ceremony_n which_o have_v no_o other_o end_n than_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o ceremony_n command_v and_o practise_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v such_o i_o will_v make_v it_o appear_v but_o first_o we_o must_v be_v certain_a though_o the_o church_n have_v no_o power_n to_o establish_v point_n of_o faith_n belong_v to_o god_n only_o as_o it_o be_v the_o consent_n of_o all_o divine_n yet_o she_o have_v power_n to_o set_v up_o ceremony_n which_o be_v necessary_a either_o to_o the_o decent_a administration_n or_o reception_n of_o sacrament_n or_o to_o make_v we_o remember_v the_o holiness_n and_o purity_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v when_o we_o be_v gather_v together_o to_o sing_v psalm_n unto_o god_n to_o call_v upon_o his_o holy_a name_n to_o beg_v his_o mercy_n and_o give_v he_o thanks_o for_o all_o his_o favour_n or_o to_o inflame_v our_o heart_n and_o lift_v up_o our_o mind_n towards_o heavenly_a thing_n i_o say_v that_o the_o church_n have_v now_o this_o power_n since_o there_o be_v but_o one_o catholic_n church_n and_o that_o the_o same_o now_o as_o be_v in_o the_o apostle_n time_n and_o since_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n there_o be_v ceremony_n as_o i_o have_v make_v it_o appear_v already_o and_o may_v clear_o be_v infer_v from_o these_o word_n of_o st._n paul_n let_v all_o thing_n be_v do_v decent_o and_o in_o order_n for_o what_o be_v it_o mean_v thereby_o but_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v preach_v his_o praise_n sing_v his_o holy_a name_n worship_v and_o call_v upon_o thanksgiving_n return_v unto_o he_o and_o his_o sacrament_n administer_v and_o receive_v with_o the_o ceremony_n establish_v by_o the_o church_n which_o be_v evident_o infer_v from_o these_o word_n decent_o and_o in_o order_n therefore_o since_o there_o be_v ceremony_n in_o the_o church_n then_o it_o be_v lawful_a now_o to_o have_v they_o but_o have_v there_o be_v none_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o they_o be_v forbid_v at_o this_o god_n leave_v authority_n enough_o to_o his_o church_n to_o set_v any_o provide_v as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o they_o conduce_v to_o his_o glory_n the_o edification_n of_o soul_n and_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o the_o ceremony_n use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v such_o therefore_o they_o be_v lawful_a to_o show_v it_o in_o particular_a do_v not_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n use_v immediate_o after_o infant_n baptism_n conduce_v to_o the_o edification_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o be_v ashamed_a to_o confess_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n crucify_v but_o manful_o to_o fight_v under_o his_o banner_n against_o sin_n the_o world_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o to_o continue_v christ_n faithful_a soldier_n and_o servant_n unto_o our_o life_n end_v and_o do_v not_o this_o conduce_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n see_v we_o take_v from_o thence_o a_o occasion_n to_o praise_n and_o give_v he_o thanks_o for_o his_o great_a love_n manifest_v unto_o we_o in_o send_v his_o only_a son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o die_v upon_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o mankind_n and_o can_v a_o y_a body_n make_v appear_v that_o this_o be_v contrary_n to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n no_o certain_o he_o which_o endeavour_n it_o will_v undoubted_o fail_v in_o his_o undertake_n be_v the_o custom_n of_o godfathers_n and_o godmothers_n in_o baptism_n contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o what_o chapter_n or_o verse_n be_v that_o to_o be_v find_v i_o have_v read_v the_o scripture_n over_o and_o i_o do_v not_o remember_v to_o have_v read_v that_o it_o be_v forbid_v but_o on_o the_o contrary_a i_o find_v this_o custom_n very_o good_a yea_o very_o necessary_a because_o our_o spiritual_a generation_n which_o be_v by_o baptism_n be_v in_o some_o manner_n like_a unto_o our_o carnal_a wherefore_o it_o be_v say_v 1_o pet._n 2._o lay_v aside_o all_o

child_n and_o instruct_v he_o in_o the_o faith_n of_o christian_a religion_n wherefore_o because_o the_o minister_n can_v do_v it_o be_v employ_v towards_o the_o common_a care_n of_o the_o soul_n commit_v to_o their_o charge_n and_o the_o child_n parent_n may_v die_v before_o he_o be_v grow_v to_o age_n and_o understand_v what_o belong_v to_o the_o christian_a faith_n the_o church_n require_v

in_o their_o power_n the_o christian_a religion_n be_v the_o custom_n and_o ceremony_n of_o stand_v up_o in_o read_v hymn_n psalm_n the_o gospel_n and_o the_o creed_n and_o of_o kneel_v down_o in_o make_v our_o prayer_n unto_o god_n forbid_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n on_o the_o contrary_a have_v we_o not_o a_o example_n of_o jesus_n christ_n who_o pray_v upon_o his_o knee_n say_v father_n if_o thou_o be_v willing_a remove_v this_o cup_n from_o i_o nevertheless_o not_o my_o will_n but_o thou_o be_v do_v and_o when_o we_o be_v stand_v up_o in_o the_o read_n of_o psalm_n and_o hymn_n it_o

to_o defend_v they_o to_o the_o utmost_a of_o our_o power_n against_o all_o opposition_n whatsoever_o and_o do_v not_o this_o conduce_v to_o the_o edification_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o to_o

who_o be_v the_o true_a 1._o light_n which_o light_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n come_v out_o of_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o sepulchre_n on_o which_o day_n our_o redemption_n appear_v more_o especial_o and_o evident_o and_o 2._o that_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n there_o appear_v unto_o the_o apostle_n cleave_v tongue_n like_v as_o of_o fire_n and_o sit_v upon_o each_o of_o they_o and_o they_o be_v all_o fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o begin_v to_o speak_v with_o other_o tongue_n and_o that_o on_o this_o day_n likewise_o christ_n reveal_v to_o st._n john_n the_o excellent_a and_o admirable_a mystery_n describe_v in_o his_o revelation_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v choose_v that_o day_n for_o their_o public_a exercise_n of_o piety_n and_o charity_n for_o the_o administration_n of_o sacrament_n and_o manifestation_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o act_n and_o in_o 16._o the_o first_o to_o the_o corinthian_n i_o say_v all_o this_o be_v true_a the_o church_n think_v they_o may_v and_o ought_v to_o imitate_v the_o apostle_n and_o instead_o of_o the_o seven_o ordain_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o be_v keep_v holy_a object_n it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o first_o epistle_n of_o st._n paul_n to_o the_o corinthian_n not_o to_o 6._o think_v of_o man_n above_o that_o which_o be_v write_v and_o in_o the_o 15_o chapter_n of_o st._n matthew_n in_o vain_a they_o do_v 9_o worship_n i_o teach_v for_o doctrine_n the_o commandment_n of_o man_n but_o the_o church_n of_o england_n think_v of_o man_n above_o that_o which_o be_v write_v and_o teach_v for_o doctrine_n the_o commandment_n of_o man_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o common-prayer_n book_n which_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v read_v in_o all_o their_o church_n wherein_o they_o enjoin_v the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o godfathers_n and_o godmother_n in_o baptism_n it_o appear_v also_o in_o the_o surplice_n music_n and_o organ_n practise_v especial_o in_o cathedral_n church_n therefore_o she_o be_v not_o the_o holy_a catholic_n church_n because_o to_o be_v so_o she_o ought_v to_o believe_v and_o practice_v the_o whole_a christian_a faith_n without_o add_v to_o or_o diminish_v from_o it_o answ_n the_o word_n of_o st._n paul_n and_o matthew_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o doctrine_n or_o point_n of_o faith_n that_o be_v to_o say_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o any_o man_n in_o whatever_o dignity_n or_o power_n he_o be_v to_o establish_v any_o article_n of_o faith_n beside_o what_o be_v establish_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n therefore_o st._n paul_n foresee_v that_o man_n will_v attribute_v to_o themselves_o a_o privilege_n belong_v to_o god_n only_o i_o mean_v that_o they_o shall_v establish_v article_n of_o faith_n not_o find_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o oftentimes_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v curse_v they_o and_o will_v have_v they_o to_o be_v anathema_n second_o i_o say_v when_o the_o church_n of_o england_n command_v and_o use_n common-prayer_n she_o do_v not_o think_v of_o man_n above_o that_o which_o be_v write_v nor_o teach_v for_o doctrine_n the_o commandment_n of_o man_n because_o in_o several_a place_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n we_o have_v a_o command_n to_o pray_v yea_o to_o pray_v by_o a_o form_n for_o when_o you_o pray_v say_v christ_n himself_o pray_v after_o this_o manner_n 9_o our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n and_o see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n not_o only_o command_v his_o disciple_n to_o pray_v but_o also_o to_o pray_v after_o a_o form_n which_o example_n they_o ought_v to_o follow_v in_o all_o other_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o common-prayer_n which_o be_v make_v according_a to_o that_o form_n which_o by_o our_o saviour_n be_v set_v as_o a_o pattern_n i_o mean_v which_o conduce_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o salvation_n of_o soul_n and_o wherein_o nothing_o be_v find_v contrary_a to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v not_o only_o lawful_a but_o aught_o to_o be_v use_v in_o church_n and_o prefer_v before_o extempore_o prayer_n i_o say_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o extempore_o prayer_n first_o because_o in_o this_o sort_n of_o prayer_n we_o may_v let_v slip_n as_o it_o happen_v too_o often_o a_o bad_a doctrine_n or_o some_o point_v contrary_a to_o faith_n and_o either_o by_o inconsideration_n or_o ignorance_n we_o may_v ask_v that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o hurtful_a to_o our_o salvation_n and_o what_o good_a effect_n can_v a_o man_n hope_v from_o such_o prayer_n wherein_o be_v find_v so_o many_o imperfection_n but_o none_o of_o these_o fault_n be_v find_v in_o common-prayer_n we_o be_v certain_a they_o be_v orthodox_n and_o that_o therein_o we_o ask_v nothing_o hurtful_a unto_o we_o nor_o contrary_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n they_o be_v compose_v by_o they_o who_o represent_v the_o church_n i_o mean_v by_o a_o considerable_a number_n of_o learned_a and_o godly_a man_n who_o before_o they_o command_v they_o to_o be_v use_v in_o public_a do_v serious_o consider_v whether_o they_o be_v whole_o conformable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n second_o because_o in_o the_o prayer_n make_v extempore_o as_o dr._n beveridge_n do_v very_o beveridge_n well_o observe_v in_o his_o admirable_a sermon_n of_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o common-prayer_n we_o must_v first_o listen_v to_o what_o the_o minister_n will_v say_v next_o than_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v whether_o what_o he_o say_v be_v agreeable_a to_o sound_v doctrine_n and_o whether_o it_o be_v proper_a and_o lawful_a for_o i_o to_o join_v with_o he_o in_o the_o petition_n he_o put_v up_o to_o god_n almighty_a and_o if_o we_o think_v it_o be_v so_o than_o we_o be_v to_o do_v it_o but_o before_o we_o can_v well_o do_v that_o he_o be_v get_v to_o another_o thing_n by_o which_o mean_v it_o be_v very_o difficult_a if_o not_o moral_o impossible_a to_o join_v with_o he_o in_o every_o thing_n so_o regular_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v but_o by_o a_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n all_o this_o trouble_n be_v prevent_v for_o have_v the_o form_n continual_o in_o our_o mind_n be_v thorough_o acquaint_v with_o it_o full_o approve_v of_o every_o thing_n in_o it_o we_o have_v nothing_o else_o to_o do_v whilst_o the_o word_n be_v sound_v in_o our_o ear_n but_o to_o move_v our_o heart_n and_o our_o affection_n suitable_o to_o they_o to_o raise_v up_o our_o desire_n of_o those_o good_a thing_n which_o be_v pray_v for_o to_o fix_v our_o mind_n whole_o upon_o god_n whilst_o we_o be_v praise_v of_o he_o and_o so_o to_o employ_v quicken_v and_o lift_v up_o our_o whole_a soul_n in_o perform_v our_o devotion_n to_o he_o

practise_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v lawful_a because_o they_o be_v good_a and_o have_v no_o other_o end_n than_o the_o edification_n of_o soul_n and_o to_o cause_n in_o we_o more_o
