The rule for clean beasts (saith the Rej.) that they be suc• as chew the cud, and divide the hoof, was as perfect, as […] ⟨image 150⟩such beasts had been named. True, but here no determination of the assumption was necessary, but such the beasts themselves did make to every man that was •ot blind, without any institution of man. It was as •ow it is in bread & wine for the Lords Supper, which •e appointed in general, without naming of wheat, […], mislen bread, or French, Spanish, Rhenish, Itali••, Greek wine: but cross and surplice (I hope) are •ot so in general appointed. The general rules which […] Rej. groundeth our Ceremonies upon, are: let all ••ings be done to edification, with order, and decency. Now these rules are such (saith Mr. Hooker p. 95.) as stand light of reason, and nature to be observed, though the Scripture had never mentioned them. So that in them there is no ••che perfection of Scripture, for particulars, as if the particulars had been named. 2. betwixt these generals ••d such particulars in question, there must come a humane institution, such as (to make the example agree) if it had been prescribed in the old Test. only •ith clean beasts should be used in sacrifice, and left to ••e Priests for to determine, what kind of beasts should […], or holden to be clean.
