The Authors of the Abridgement framed a strong Argument against our Ceremonies from the rules of Ceremonies prescribed in the Word, P. 43. &c. with this Argument when the Defendant was not able to grapple, as it stood in the parts combined, he thought good to sever some parcels of it, and try what he could say to them apart. Thus out of this one Argument he hath taken that which he calleth our first: and out of the same he hath made up this fifth: and yet he hath quite le•t out a great part of the sinews wherewith that one reason is knit together in the Abridgement.

That these divisions and subdivisions will expedite all difficulties, so that out of them he may collect the true and false sense of Scriptures alleged.
