The THIRD and LAST APPEARANCE of the Rev. Mr. GEORGE MARSH, before Dr. COTES.
THE bishop was now determined, if Mr. Marsh would not relent and abjure, to pronounce sentence definitive against him. Wherefore he bade the said George Marsh to be well advised what he would do, for it stood upon his life: and if he would not at that present forsake his heretical opinions, it would (after the sentence given) be too late, though he would ever so gladly desire it.
THEN the chancellor first asked him, Whether he were not of the bishop's diocese? To which he answered, that he knew not how large his diocese was at Cambridge. But they asked, whether he had not lately been at Dean parish in Lancashire, and there abode? He answered, Yes.

THEN the chancellor read all his answers that he made in that place at his former examination, and at every one he asked him whether he would stick to the same or no? To which he answered again, Yes, yes.
