the_o bishop_n do_v now_o come_v in_o for_o a_o share_n it_o be_v plain_o perceive_v by_o the_o contrary_a party_n that_o though_o they_o take_v care_n for_o their_o discipline_n they_o take_v none_o for_o their_o doctrine_n that_o they_o may_v be_v as_o good_a as_o their_o promise_n to_o the_o popish_a lord_n that_o the_o oath_n shall_v be_v so_o form_v as_o not_o to_o bear_v hard_o on_o they_o which_o be_v still_o a_o encouragement_n to_o i_o to_o think_v better_o of_o the_o catholic_n religion_n then_o the_o reform_a for_o the_o catholic_n clergy_n i_o find_v much_o true_a to_o their_o

for_o its_o doctrine_n than_o discipline_n and_o not_o more_o solicitous_a to_o secure_v the_o latter_a against_o dissenter_n than_o the_o former_a against_o catholic_n or_o if_o they_o be_v man_n who_o make_v conscience_n of_o oath_n themselves_o they_o will_v never_o be_v for_o impose_v such_o oath_n upon_o other_o as_o be_v contrary_a to_o their_o own_o practice_n for_o if_o they_o think_v it_o unlawful_a to_o endeavour_v any_o alteration_n in_o their_o church_n they_o will_v never_o make_v choice_n of_o such_o man_n for_o preferment_n as_o preach_v and_o write_v against_o her_o doctrine_n of_o predestination_n those_o prelate_n do_v exact_o resemble_v the_o pharisee_n who_o bind_v heavy_a burden_n upon_o the_o shoulder_n of_o their_o disciple_n while_o they_o will_v not_o

reformation_n by_o they_o and_o their_o predecessor_n yet_o they_o will_v oblige_v other_o by_o oath_n never_o to_o endeavour_v the_o like_a but_o to_o maintain_v their_o church_n as_o now_o establish_v by_o law_n which_o swear_v they_o to_o maintain_v the_o old_a popish_a canon_n revive_v by_o the_o first_o of_o elizabeth_n which_o be_v indeed_o of_o a_o piece_n with_o the_o last_o act_n of_o uniformity_n that_o make_v popish_a priest_n capable_a of_o benefice_n without_o re-ordination_a if_o they_o turn_v protestant_n and_o yet_o unchurche_n all_o their_o reform_a brethren_n abroad_o and_o declare_v their_o ordination_n invalid_a it_o be_v true_a that_o all_o this_o be_v for_o my_o interest_n and_o contribute_v exceed_o to_o the_o advancement_n of_o my_o design_n but_o at_o the_o

my_o pleasure_n they_o pursue_v their_o profit_n as_o their_o summum_fw-la bonum_fw-la and_o if_o they_o may_v but_o acquire_v it_o they_o care_v not_o by_o what_o method_n who_o then_o can_v blame_v i_o for_o disbelieve_v that_o religion_n which_o they_o who_o be_v the_o father_n of_o the_o church_n do_v manifest_o disbelieve_v themselves_o or_o how_o can_v i_o be_v blame_v for_o favour_v popery_n as_o best_o suit_v to_o my_o design_n when_o protestant_a bishop_n approve_v of_o their_o ordination_n canon_n ceremony_n and_o government_n and_o by_o the_o choice_n which_o they_o make_v of_o ecclesiastic_n for_o preferment_n and_o the_o tenderness_n which_o they_o have_v show_v to_o the_o catholic_n in_o the_o management_n of_o this_o test_n it_o be_v evident_a enough_o that_o they_o
