to_o which_o they_o can_v say_v somewhat_o not_o that_o which_o indeed_o they_o speak_v or_o intend_v and_o thus_o he_o have_v deal_v with_o this_o for_o who_o know_v not_o that_o cathedral_n have_v ever_o have_v certain_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n vestment_n and_o other_o ornament_n which_o have_v not_o be_v use_v in_o parochial_o and_o that_o to_o reduce_v all_o parochial_a church_n to_o their_o

except_o with_o such_o as_o be_v so_o past_a sense_n and_o shame_n as_o to_o lay_v the_o approbation_n and_o allowance_n of_o those_o gross_a sin_n to_o this_o church_n yea_o and_o condemn_v not_o

of_o his_o royal_a family_n or_o chapel_n and_o so_o in_o his_o second_o answer_n that_o many_o thing_n in_o 166._o pag._n 166._o the_o king_n chapel_n as_o choir_n of_o gentleman_n &c._n &c._n can_v

that_o manner_n wherein_o he_o propound_v it_o yet_o he_o rest_v not_o in_o they_o but_o add_v other_o and_o not_o obscure_o intimate_v that_o the_o practice_n even_o of_o the_o royal_a chapel_n and_o the_o rite_n there_o use_v be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o the_o divine_a rule_n of_o scripture_n and_o compare_v the_o use_n of_o they_o to_z the_o bowing_z to_z king_n

no_o good_a argument_n why_o it_o shall_v be_v admit_v in_o all_o the_o church_n throughout_o the_o realm_n of_o england_n and_o i_o very_o believe_v that_o the_o argument_n be_v insufficient_a to_o
