I hope by this tyme yow have receyved an answere from me of all your Letters, now I am to advertise yow, oportere te caute ambulare, and not to offer any dowbt in this matter of the oath to be Censured, but in such termes (yf it be in my name) as I shall deliver yt unto yow. mr widderington hath ben beyond the Sea of Late, and since his comminge home hath to a frend at neugate charged me wzth an absurd Censure, as yf I should have Censured mr Clinche for holdinge the lawfullnes of the oath in his mynd secredy. and saied yf I wold not recall it, there wold be thinges sett forth in print or writinge to my disgrace, but I have don nothinge but justice and accordinge to the tenor of my commission sent by your selfe by order from his hol. namely to declare not onely mr blackwell and those of the clink, but also all others of there opinion to have Lost ther faculties, now cometh out the said mr Clinch with great contempt of my assistant mr Trollope, for admonishinge him twice or thrice, and to the scandall of the Countrie, [‘and’ deleted] mainteyneth that notwithstandinge he will nether teach nor defend the oath, yet in his understandinge he joyneth in opinion with mr blackwell and the rest, and having expressed thus much in plaine wordes outwardly persisteth in this error verie obstinately.
