A worthy Speech make by M. Kerton.  
Mr. Speaker,  
IF ever, now is the time to speak, we see what men are risen to: this business we have in hand is of dangerous consequence, if it be not throughly looked into, I think no man that sits here, but it sensible in what danger now it stands: if this honourable house do not find some present remedy for it. It is apparent to every man, what new opinions are brought in to disturb the peace our church was formerly in, the meaning of it can be no other, but to bring in the Romish Religion amongst us; for it ever hath been Jesuitish policy, first to work a disturbance, then after a change; we must seek a cause: I shall freely speak my mind, which is, that this proceedeth from the ambition of some of the Clergy that are nigh his Majesty; for it is well known, that that which the church of Rome anciently professed, and that we now do profess, were all one, and the ambition of the Clergy, begot and brought in those differences that are now betwixt us.  
The highest dignity they can attain unto here in England, is an Archbishopric; for a Cardinal's cap is not here to be had, I believe some of these affect that too well, and in some we see how they affect, how they change their opinions for advantage, and how they will turn white into black, and black into white, This being so, our endeavour must be to take away the root, and then the branches will decay themselves: it is not the calling in the appeal to Caesar that will do it, for if they can get a Bishopric by, etc.  
It behoveth us all, every man, according to our best ability, to apply himself, for the search of these things, that we may find out the matter, and the men, and so present them, and the danger this Kingdom now standeth in by them, to his Majesty: And for mine own part, I (as God shall enable me) will do my best endeavour herein.   
FINIS.
