mind�此    �what is your suit to us�拭�

     BISHOP。   My   noble   Lord�察  �no   more   than   what   you   know�察  �And   have 

been oftentimes invested with�此�Grievous complaints have past between the 

lips Of envious persons to upbraid the Clergy�察�Some carping at the livings 

which we have�察�And others spurning at the ceremonies That are of ancient 

custom in the church。 Amongst the which�察�Lord Cobham is a chief�此�What 

inconvenience        may    proceed     hereof�察  �Both     to  the   King    and    to  the 

commonwealth�察         �May    easily   be   discerned�察   �when     like  a   frenzy   This 

innovation shall possess their minds。 These upstarts will have followers�察�to 

uphold     Their   damned     opinion�察   �more   than   Harry    shall  To   undergo    his 

quarrel gainst the French。 

     SUFFOLK。 What proof is there against them to be had�察�That what you 

say the law may justify�拭�

     BISHOP。 They give themselves the name of Protestants�察�And meet in 

fields and solitary groves。

his name for naught�此       �for like a castle Doth he encompass them within his 

walls�察�But till that castle be subverted quite�察�We ne'er shall be at quiet in 

the realm。

begun�察�About the Lord Cobham at the Sises there�察。�For they had much ado 

the calm the rage���察�And that the valiant Herbert is there slain。 

     SUFFOLK。 A  fire   that   must   be   quenched。         Well�察  �say   no   more�察  �The 

King     anon   goes    to  the  counsel    chamber�察   �There    to  debate    of  matters 

touching France�此�As he doth pass by�察�I'll inform his grace Concerning your 

petition�此   �Master Butler�察�If I forget�察�do you remember me。 

     BUTLER。 I will�察�my Lord。

me my Lords of the clergy do present This purse�察�and in it full a thousand 

Angels�察�Praying your Lordship to accept their gift。

take they money�察�if you please To give it to this gentleman�察�you may。 

     BISHOP。 Sir�察�then we crave your furtherance herein。 

     BUTLER。 The best I can�察�my Lord of Rochester。 

     BISHOP。 Nay�察�pray ye take it�察�trust me but you shall。 

     SIR JOHN。 Were ye all thee upon New Market heath�察�You should not 

need strain curtsey who should ha't�察�Sir John would quickly rid ye of that 

care。 

     SUFFOLK。   The   King   is   coming。         Fear   ye   not�察  �my   Lord�察  �The   very 

first thing I will break with him Shall be about your matter。

     KING。 My Lord of Suffolk�察�Was it not said the Clergy did refuse To 

lend us money toward our wars in France�拭�

     SUFFOLK。 It was�察�my Lord�察�but very wrongfully。 

     KING。 I   know  it   was�察 �for   Huntington here   tells   me�察�They  have   been 

very bountiful of late。 

     SUFFOLK。 And   still   they  vow�察  �my   gracious   Lord�察  �to   be   so�察  �Hoping 

your majesty will think of them As of your loving subjects�察�and suppress 

All   such   malicious   errors   as   begin   To   spot   their   calling�察  �and   disturb   the 

church。 

     KING。   God   else   forbid�此   �why�察  �Suffolk�察  �is   there Any   new   rupture   to 

disquiet them�拭�

Cobham�察  �in   despite   Of   any   law�察  �or   spiritual   discipline�察  �Maintains   this 

upstart new religion still�察�And divers great assemblies by his means And 

private quarrels are commenced abroad�察�As by this letter more at large�察�my 

liege�察�Is made apparent。
