p. 73. The truth is: Mr. Jacob could never get over the block, which Mr. Cartwright, & the Admonitors ⟨image 33⟩had laid in his way (how ever Mr. Cartwright himself a man of more activity, made a shift to leap over it) namely thus: What soever is not commanded in the word, must not be in the Church:

And yet Mr. Jacob, that he might seem to hold fair quarter with Mr. Cartwright, & other learned Divines, who acknowledge, that certain Ecclesiastical rites & Cerem: appropriated to holy actions, were left to the determination of the Church, under some general rules of the word, vvill seem to allow somewhat, he cannot tell what, some circumstances only civill, or occasional, as the time & place, which he rather calleth circumstances, then Cerem: that so, if any shall say, he alloweth nothing to the Churches determination, to be squared, by some rules: He may answer for himself & say: yes, certain circumstances are; namely such as are necessary in civill, as well as sacred actions.
