 “In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghoſt, ! Whereas our Lord and maſter, to the honour of God and for the common profit of this farm hath granted, for him and his heirs for ever, theſe articles above written: I, his Chaplain and ſpiritual paſtor of all this farm, do admoniſh the people of the farm once, twice, and thrice: Becauſe that ſhortneſs will not ſuffer ſo much delay as to give knowledge to the people of theſe preſents in writing; I therefore enjoyn all perſons, of what eſtate ſoever they be, that they and every of them, as much as in them is, ſhall uphold and maintain theſe articles granted by our Lord and maſter in all points. And all thoſe that in any point do reſiſt, or break, or in any manner hereafter, procure, counſel, or any ways aſſent to reſiſt or break theſe ordinances or go about it by word or died, openly or privately, by any manner of pretence or colour: I the aforeſaid Chaplain, by my authority, do excommunicate and accurſe, and from the body of our Lord Jeſus Chriſt, and from all the company of Heaven, and from all the ſacraments of holy church do ſequeſter and exclude.” .
