To my very loving Brethren the Ministers, and to the Churchwardens, and Sidemen, of every Parish, and Precinct, within my Archdeaconry of London.  
WHereas, for the greater honour, and worship of God's holy Majesty, it was anciently ordained in the Church of England, that on Wednesdays, and fridays weekly, the Ministers, and People, should assemble themselves, in their Parish Churches, there to offer their humble thanksgivings, and Prayers, according to the form prescribed in the Book of common Prayer, established by the laws of this Kingdom of England: And upon just complaint, of the great neglect of that religious ordinance, with humble desire of reformation therein; it hath pleased the right reverend Father in God, my Lord Bishop of London, our Diocesan, to give in charge unto me, that (with all care) I do speedily endeavour that reformation, within my Archdeaconry, according to the laws, and Canons, in that behalf provided. I therefore (according to his Lordship's charge, imposed on me) do pray, and require you the Ministers, to give public warning, in your full Congregations, assembled in your Parish Churches, on the next ensuing Sunday, (with religious, and zealous exhortations to the same) that every houshoulder of your Parishes, do duly from henceforth, come in person, or else send some, or one (at the least) of his Family, to your several Parish Churches, there to join with you, in thanksgivings, and Prayers, to Almighty God, in that holy▪ and religious manner, commanded in the said Book of common Prayer; And you the Churchwardens, and Sidemen, or some of you, to be always present at those weekly divine exercises, whereby you may not only give good example to others, but also observe those that be negligent, and admonish them to do their duties therein; And that not prevailing with them, to present the transgressors unto me, or my Official, who will (to God's glory) use the best means of our authority, in reducing the offenders unto the performance of that Christian duty. And so (heartily desiring your due consideration of, and care in the premises) I commend you to the grace of the Almighty. London, this Tenth day of December. An. Dom. 1627.  
Your very loving brother, and friend▪ Tho: Paske.
