cause, some respect of liuing shal be had vnto him who sustaines that burthen.

6. His Maiesties intention is, not to derogate vnto the ordinarye iudgement of matters of the church, by the ordinary bishops, their councells, and synods; but, if any of them do amisse, and abuse their calling, to take order for correcting, amending, and punishing thereof, 7. His Maiesties intention is, not to hinder or stay any godly or solide order, grounded vppon the worde of God, and order of the primitiue church; but that the ministers of the word meddle themselues onely with their owne calling, and iudge not fearfully of the estate.

s. It is his Maiesties intention, that the presbyteries consisting of many ministers and gentlemen, at Landwart or other waise, be no further tollerate in this his realme; but the exercise of iurisdiction of all churches, to be in the hands of the bishop or commissioner, and their councells and synods.

9. It is his Maiesties intention, that the bisbops or commissioners assemble not any generall assemblie out of the whole realme, without his Maiesties knowledge and licence obteined thereunto; which, upon supplication his highnesse will not denie: that an uniforme order may be obserued in the whole realme, and the bishops and their diligences there tryed and examined, and the complaints of euery perticular heard and discussed.

10. It is his Maiesties intention to assist this assemblie himself, or by a nobleman of his counsaile, his highnesse deputie.

11. It is his Maiesties intention, that, when any parish findeth necessitie of any fast, they enform the occasion to the bishop or commissioner, their counsaile, that they may vnderstand the cause to be lawfull; as lykewise the bishop of the diocesse, finding lawfull occasion, may, within the same, with his counsaile, prescribe any publike hu miliation.

12. It is his Maiestics intention, that a generall fast throughout the whole realm shall not be proclaimed but by his Maiesties commaundement, or by a generall counsaile, wherin his Maiestic, or his highnesse deputy, is present,

13. It is his Highnesse intention, that the bishops in the realme in euery diocesse, with their counsaile, proceede into the ecclesiasticall gouernment; but, as is saide, with a counsaile, that both tyranny and confusion may be avoided in the church.

14. It is his Highnesse intention, that commissioners be directed vni, uersally throughout the whole realme to establish a godly order, and that his Maiesties commissioners take order presently for the translation of such ministers, whose trauels they esteeme may more conue niently and profitably serue in another place,
