A
COMPARISON
OF THE PARLIA∣mentary
Protestation with
the late Canonicall Oath, and
the difference betwixt them.
- Reall differencies betwixt the Protestation of the Par∣liament, and the Oath of the Canon: first in the matter of them both, the Doctrine established.
- An Advertisement touching the wine which in some places is allowed to the Laity after the taking of the bread.
- Of that wherin the Oath of the sixt Canon and the Protestation do differ, in respect of the matter con∣tained in either, which the other hath not.
- The difference in forme betwixt the Parliamentary Pro∣testation and the Canonicall Oath may induce us to the one, and with-hold us from the other.
- Personall considerations, which may induce to the ma∣king of the Protestation, and discouragement from taking of the Oath.
-
An Answer to your doubt of the
ase of Conscience, wherin the opposition betwixt your Seminary and me is clearly demonstrated. -

doubt cleared of ambiguity, and the truth declare
, how Christ may be said to be received with one kind, how with both. -

part of the Sacrament, yet it is utterly nlawfull, ei∣ther to administer the Sacrament in the Popish Church with kind , or so to receive it, though none o∣ther exception were to be taken at the Religion then their broken communion, with the inducements to it, and consequences upon it. -
