<BYLINE>By me JOHN TURNER, Pri&s;oner of our <HI>Lord Je&s;us Chri&s;t</HI> (committed by the Bi&s;hops) neare 14 yeares, for affirming <HI>Chri&s;t Je&s;us hath left in his written Word &s;ufficient direction to order his Church and Children in his wor&s;hip: So that nothing may be done, over nor above nor be&s;ides what is commanded therein by a Precept and Example or a true ga|thered con&s;equence;</HI> which I dare not but affirme, though I die for the &s;ame. And now delivered, (as abu&s;ively Impri&s;oned all this time) by the mo&s;t Honourable Lords in Parliament, 1641.</BYLINE>
