Insomoche that theis vertuous masters with good enstruccions, had no

bothe to the glorye of god and to the Comforte of those whiche brought
theim vp 7 But whan as nowe lewde libertye in stede of the former vertuous
life haithe of late taken place in apprentizes and chiefelye
of those as ar servyng in this worshipefull fellyshipe of marchantes
whether the occasion thereof ys imputable vnto vs masters that by
