Whereas all England knoweth, that those which never preached, or writ against the Ceremonies, have their mouths stopped by his Prelates, though they only profess, they cannot use them, by reason of scandal, of which number, Doctor Burges himself hath been one. 3. He would persuade the world, that some of us place all religion in opposing Ceremonies by speaking and writing: which is greater calumny, then any he charged us with, or then he can prove of any one. 4. He affirmeth us to be of all men he ever knew, the most impatient of opposition, and so most partial, and Pharisaically proud as if his Prelates were very patient toward those that oppose their Ceremonies, no way so partial, nor drew any thing from the Pharisees, or as if himself in this Rejoinder, had not showed more of these virtues, then any other. 5. He showeth where the store lieth: in rooting of them out of the hearts of their people, by clamours, and calumnies. We cannot then defend our practise, but with clamours and calumnies, nor answer for our hearts, without rooting them out of peoples hearts.
