Bland. You know that the true church did not at all times flourish, but was wonderfully persecuted. THEN my lord of Dover cried, No more, I command you to hold your peace. Have him away, and bring in another.
Collins. You shall come again on Monday at nine o'clock, and in the mean time you shall have whom you will to confer withal; your friend Dr. Faucet, or Mr. Glassier, if you desire them.

Bland. I will refuse to talk with no man: as for any conference on your part, it is but weak laws, established as they are. But when there was no law, I did desire conference.

But as I did before, I demanded what they had to lay to my charge, and to see the law, which they said before I should see.
