Dicebat autem eis, quia in multis quidem nostrae consuetudini, immo universalis ecclesiae contraria geritis: et tamen si in tribus his mihi obtemperare vultis; ut pascha suo tempore celebretis; ut ministerium baptizandi, quo Deo renascimur, iuxta morem sanctae Romanae et apostolicae ecclesiae compleatis; ut genti Anglorum una nobiscum verbum Domini praedicetis; cetera quae agitis, quamvis moribus nostris contraria, aequanimiter cuncta tolerabimus.
Now he said that in many points ye do contrary to our custom, or rather to the custom of the universal Church: yet notwithstanding, if ye will in these three things obey unto me, that is, to celebrate Easter in due time; to accomplish the ministry of baptism, by which we are born again to God, according to the manner of the holy Roman and apostolic Church; and to preach along with us the word of the Lord to the English nation; all the other things that ye do, though they be contrary to our customs, we shall be content to bear with.
