This nothing toucheth the order or substance of the booke, and therefore no suffi∣cient reason agaynst it, if it were true. But you héerein deale as you haue done in o∣ther matters, that is, corruptly and vntruely. For you do not reporte the wordes of* 1.1 the booke concerning this matter, as they be in déede: and it is wonderfull, and ar∣gueth great impadencie, that you are not ashamed, to reporte vntruely in so publike a cause. The words of the booke be these: The Morning and Euening prayer shall be vsed in the accustomed place of the Church, Chappell or Chauncell, excepte it shall be o∣therwise determined by the Ordinarie of the place. And you leauing out all the rest, say, that the words of the booke of seruice are, that the minister should stande in the accustomed place: as though it bounde him of necessitie to the Chauncell, which is nothing so. But you* 1.2 must be borne with, your errours and disorders can not otherwise be maynteyned, but by falsifying. I thinke there are but fewe Churches in Englande where the Bi: shops haue not taken a very good order for the place of prayer, if any Bishop haue neglected it, the fault is in the Bishop, not in the booke.
But still I must desire the Reader to note the weightinesse of the reasons, where by you goe about to deface the booke of common prayer.
