And why haue you then hitherto chosen such places to remaine and preach in, as London. &c. Where the Gospell without you, and before your tyme was planted? why haue you there and in suche like places disquieted the Churche and sowen the séede of contention? What calling haue you had in those places, which you might not haue by the selfe same meanes in other places also, where the Gospell is not so well planted?
