Reverend and Loving Brother,

I have perused your papers, I thank God for your judgment, zeall, and paynes, which I hope shall prove verie profiteable and usefull to many; yet would I wish you to advyse whether it be expedient to publish them presentile, for two causes: One is, because much more, I heare, is latelie come to light on both sides, in Holland and England, than we have yet seen, which being perused by you will make your work more perfect: The other cause is , that it would seem good yet once again in the General Assemble to trie the estate of our Kirks, and whether such a work be necessarie; and therefore I wish you had it readie for the presie against the Assemblie; and in the mean while you may give copies, in write, to whom you think meet. This is my wonted libertie, but with submission to your owne judgment.
