I perceive you care not whether the archdeacon fall or no / that you bestow so little cost of him / and leave him so nakedly. And if I would be but half so hold in conjectures / and divinations / as you are / I could say that this sleight handling of the archdeacon / and sweating so much about the archbishop / is ⟨p. 96⟩thereupon y• you would be loth to come from being dean / to be an archdeacon / & you live in some hope of being archbishop / but I will not enter so far. And surely for any thing that I see / you might have trussed up the archbishop as short / as you do the archdeacon. For they stand upon one pin / and those reasons which establish the one / establish the other / whereupon also cometh to pass / that all those reasons which were before alleged against the archbishop / may be drawn against the archdeacon / having therefore before proved the unlawfulness of them / I will here set down the difference between those archdeacons that were in times past / and those which are now / whereby it may appear they are nothing like / but in name.

I perceiue you care not whether the archdeacon fall or no / that you bestow so little coste of hym / and leaue him so nakedly. And if I woulde be but halfe so holde in coniectures / and diuinations / as you are / I coulde say that thys sleighte handling of the archdeacon / and sweating so muche aboute the archbyshoppe / is ⟨p. 96⟩thervpon y• you woid be loth to come frō being deane / to be an archdeacon / & you liue in some hope of being archbyshop / but I will not enter so farre. And surely for any thing that I see / you might haue trussed vp the archbyshop as shorte / as you do the archdeacon. For they stand vpon one pinne / and those reasons whych establishe the one / establishe the other / wherevpon also commeth to passe / that all those reasons whych were before alledged against the archbishop / may be drawn against the archdeacon / hauing therfore before proued the vnlawfulnes of them / I will heere set downe the difference betweene those archdeacons that were in times past / and those whych are nowe / whereby it may appeare they are nothing like / but in name.
