continue in their service, or whither these Paedagogs do either become
corrupt in Religion, or (continuing constant) are removed from their
charge and by whom they are removed, and that they signifie these things
to the Generall Assembly from time to time or their Commissioners, That
they may represent the same to the High Court of Parliament, Lords of
