THe Lords and Commons do Declare, That they intend a due and necessary reformation of the Government and Liturgie of the Church, and to take away nothing in the one or the other, but what shall be evil, and justly offensive, or at least unnecessary and burthensome: And for the better effecting thereof, speedily to have Consultation with Godly and Learned Divines. And because this will never of it self attain the end sought therein, they will therefore use their utmost endeavours to establish Learned and Preaching Ministers, with a good and sufficient maintenance throughout the whole Kingdom, wherein many dark Corners are miserably destitute of the means of Salvation, and many poor Ministers want necessary provision.
