<P>2. It is al&s;o to be noted, that con&s;anguinity and affinity (letting and di&s;&s;olving

<P>4. <HI>Item,</HI> in contracting betwixt per&s;ons doubtful, which be not expre&s;&s;ed in this
Table, it is mo&s;t &s;ure, fir&s;t to con&s;ult with men learned in the Laws, to under&s;tand

in private hou&s;es, nor lawle&s;s or exempt Churches, under the pains of the Law
forbidding the &s;ame. And that the Curate have their Certificates, when the par|ties
dwell in diver&s;e Pari&s;hes.</P>
<P>6. <HI>Item,</HI> the banns of Matrimony ought to be openly denounced in the Church by
the Mini&s;ter, thr&eacute;e &s;everal Sundaies or Fe&s;tival daies, to the end that who will
and can alledge any impediment, may be heard, and that &s;tay may be made till fur|ther
trial, if any exception be made there again&s;t it upon &s;ufficient caution.</P>
<P>7. <HI>Item,</HI> who &s;hall maliciou&s;ly object a frivolous impediment again&s;t a lawful

otherwi&s;e to be puni&s;hed according to the Laws.</P>
<P>10. <HI>Item,</HI> it is further ordained, that no Par&s;on, Vicar or Curate do preach, treat,
or expound, of his own voluntary invention, any matter of controver&s;ie in the Scri|ptures,
if he be under the degr&eacute;e of a Ma&s;ter of Art, except he be licen&s;ed by his
Ordinary thereunto, but only for the in&s;truction of the people, reade the Homilies
already &s;et forth, and &s;uch other form of doctrine as &s;hall be hereafter by authority
publi&s;hed: and &s;hall not innovate or alter any thing in the Church, or u&s;e any old
