love_n and_o a_o reverend_a esteem_n of_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n call_v in_o holy_a scripture_n the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o have_v solemn_o as_o become_v a_o christian_n take_v the_o

which_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v of_o no_o less_o author_n then_o of_o our_o saviour_n both_o god_n and_o man_n when_o at_o his_o last_o supper_n among_o his_o apostle_n he_o do_v take_v the_o

to_o proceed_v or_o that_o bind_v the_o say_a jones_n to_o obey_v and_o be_v much_o more_o sure_a that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o such_o proceed_n however_o the_o say_v jones_n say_v that_o he_o have_v take_v the_o holy_a communion_n in_o such_o a_o church_n as_o be_v declare_v and_o own_a in_o the_o nineteen_o article_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n viz._n that_o the_o visible_a church_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o company_n of_o faithful_a man_n in_o which_o the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n be_v preach_v and_o the_o sacrament_n be_v due_o administer_v according_a to_o christ_n ordinance_n in_o all_o thing_n that_o of_o necessity_n be_v requisite_a to_o the_o same_o and_o the_o say_v jones_n say_v that_o himself_o and_o a_o vast_a number_n of_o his_o majesty_n protestant_a subject_n do_v exercise_v a_o godly_a care_n and_o make_v great_a conscience_n to_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o no_o other_o assembly_n than_o be_v express_v in_o the_o aforesaid_a article_n viz._n a_o company_n of_o faithful_a people_n that_o have_v the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n true_o preach_v and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n due_o administer_v but_o it_o may_v be_v the_o doctor_n will_v say_v that_o jones_n mean_v the_o assembly_n of_o disenter_n to_o which_o jones_n do_v reply_v that_o he_o honest_o mean_v no_o other_o assembly_n but_o such_o where_o christ_n be_v preach_v as_o he_o be_v declare_v in_o the_o holy_a gospel_n 1._o as_o god_n and_o man._n 2._o as_o be_v conceive_v in_o the_o virgin_n womb_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o so_o bring_v forth_o into_o the_o world_n to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o sinner_n 3._o his_o death_n as_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o divine_a justice_n 4._o his_o resurrection_n for_o the_o justification_n of_o all_o true_a beleiver_n 5._o his_o ascension_n into_o heaven_n and_o make_v intercession_n at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n that_o so_o the_o godly_a may_v be_v accept_v of_o god_n and_o be_v receive_v into_o heaven_n 6._o the_o second_o come_v of_o christ_n to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a at_o which_o time_n of_o judgement_n he_o will_v receive_v the_o righteous_a into_o eternal_a happiness_n and_o send_v the_o wicked_a into_o eternal_a misery_n after_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o just_a and_o unjust_a and_o as_o touch_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n the_o aforesaid_a assembly_n do_v profess_v and_o practise_v water_n baptism_n as_o god_n holy_a ordinance_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n in_o both_o kind_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o a_o holy_a remembrance_n of_o christ_n death_n till_o he_o come_v again_o as_o it_o be_v express_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o in_o the_o before_o mention_v statute_n of_o 1_o edw._n 6._o chap._n 1._o which_o statute_n do_v not_o compel_v any_o of_o the_o king_n subject_n to_o come_v to_o that_o bless_a ordinance_n to_o the_o damage_n of_o their_o own_o soul_n but_o strict_o warn_v to_o the_o contrary_a and_o require_v person_n to_o come_v humble_o and_o devout_o of_o their_o own_o desire_n now_o therefore_o why_o the_o say_v joneâ—s_n or_o any_o other_o of_o the_o king_n protestant_n subject_n shall_v be_v prosecute_v to_o the_o suffer_a imprisonment_n for_o not_o take_v the_o sacramnt_n in_o their_o respective_a parish_n church_n who_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n &_o other_o part_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n in_o such_o assembly_n as_o be_v for_o high_a degree_n of_o reformation_n than_o be_v among_o the_o common_a protestant_n it_o

jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o spiritual_a governor_n in_o his_o church_n and_o have_v give_v spiritual_a law_n for_o the_o government_n thereof_o the_o say_v jones_n say_v he_o have_v careful_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n for_o many_o year_n and_o can_v never_o find_v that_o ever_o christ_n do_v set_v up_o such_o a_o way_n of_o government_n in_o his_o church_n viz._n of_o fines_n imprisonment_n banishment_n or_o any_o other_o corporal_a punishment_n to_o bring_v person_n to_o conform_v unto_o his_o gospel_n ordinance_n but_o christ_n way_n be_v to_o aford_v plain_a and_o

according_a to_o the_o proceed_n of_o doctor_n pinfold_n and_o other_o ecclesiastical_a judge_n such_o as_o be_v conscientious_o afraid_a they_o shall_v miss_v the_o comfort_n and_o bless_a benefit_n of_o the_o sacrament_n by_o come_v to_o it_o at_o such_o time_n and_o place_n with_o such_o communicant_n as_o impose_v by_o the_o say_a doctor_n must_v be_v content_v with_o the_o discomfort_n of_o a_o jail_n or_o else_o pay_v great_a sum_n of_o money_n to_o get_v off_o and_o whereas_o the_o â—aid_a doctor_n do_v declare_v in_o the_o public_a assembly_n of_o doctor_n commons_o that_o he_o fix_v the_o take_n of_o the_o
person_n need_v not_o make_v so_o much_o haste_n to_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n as_o to_o break_v their_o shin_n and_o so_o the_o say_v jones_n will_v return_v to_o his_o sober_a discourse_n with_o doctor_n pinfold_n then_o the_o say_a doctor_n sober_o proceed_v tell_v the_o say_a jones_n that_o he_o be_v under_o the_o same_o circumstance_n with_o his_o neighbour_n viz._n present_v by_o the_o churchwarden_n for_o not_o come_v to_o his_o parish_n church_n and_o for_o not_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o add_v i_o think_v it_o in_o vain_a to_o ask_v when_o you_o be_v at_o church_n but_o i_o will_v hear_v what_o you_o have_v to_o say_v then_o the_o say_v jones_n reply_v doctor_n i_o perceive_v you_o will_v deal_v with_o i_o as_o with_o my_o neighbour_n present_o proceed_v to_o

be_o not_o come_v to_o provoke_v you_o and_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o oppress_v i_o then_o the_o doctor_n consent_v to_o hear_v what_o jones_n have_v to_o say_v jones_n sir_n i_o be_o ready_a to_o receive_v and_o comply_v with_o a_o admonition_n to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n provide_v you_o will_v give_v i_o such_o a_o admonition_n and_o in_o such_o a_o spirit_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n give_v in_o his_o day_n at_o this_o word_n the_o doctor_n look_v somewhat_o strange_o as_o if_o paul_n admonition_n be_v strange_a thing_n in_o that_o court_n but_o jones_n go_v on_o say_v that_o paul_n do_v admonish_v person_n to_o examine_v themselves_o and_o come_v to_o that_o ordinance_n and_o in_o another_o place_n paul_n do_v admonish_v person_n to_o take_v heed_n they_o do_v
