the_o apostle_n paul_n call_v elimas_n the_o sorcerer_n as_o ill_o as_o i_o call_v they_o *_o gent._n it_o be_v very_o true_a indeed_o the_o apostle_n paul_n call_v he_o as_o ill_o yet_o doubtless_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o you_o to_o follow_v his_o example_n therein_o except_o you_o be_v full_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o the_o text_n say_v paul_n be_v and_o thereby_o be_v able_a to_o

book_n print_v lie_v on_o many_o bookseller_n stall_n to_o be_v sell_v that_o give_v they_o as_o bad_a language_n as_o i_o have_v do_v gent._n the_o more_o be_v the_o pity_n i_o be_o sorry_a to_o

when_o michael_n the_o archangel_n strive_v against_o the_o devil_n and_o dispute_v about_o the_o body_n of_o moses_n dare_v not_o blame_v he_o with_o curse_a speak_v or_o give_v he_o any_o rail_a accusation_n but_o only_o say_v the_o lord_n rebuke_v thou_o and_o to_o tell_v you_o true_o though_o i_o myself_o be_v one_o who_o they_o call_v a_o professor_n yet_o do_v i_o utter_o dislike_v this_o disposition_n which_o i_o have_v observe_v in_o many_o who_o be_v call_v by_o that_o name_n in_o utter_v such_o bitter_a word_n against_o gross_a offender_n and_o much_o more_o if_o they_o write_v or_o print_v book_n in_o that_o nature_n to_o tell_v you_o true_o i_o like_v not_o such_o satirical_a spirit_n citt._n why_o but_o sir_n by_o your_o favour_n i_o conceive_v that_o such_o book_n do_v much_o good_a for_o first_o thereby_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o such_o as_o have_v offend_v may_v come_v to_o see_v their_o offence_n thereby_o and_o so_o be_v bring_v to_o shame_n and_o afterward_o to_o repentance_n and_o then_o second_o hereby_o it_o be_v make_v apparent_a to_o the_o world_n what_o they_o be_v and_o so_o they_o come_v to_o be_v detest_v and_o at_o last_o cut_v off_o from_o trouble_v this_o our_o israel_n as_o one_o be_v and_o i_o hope_v more_o will_v follow_v gent._n sir_n i_o pray_v you_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o matter_n of_o such_o book_n that_o i_o do_v simple_o condemn_v but_o the_o manner_n or_o stile_n of_o they_o for_o i_o conceive_v if_o such_o matter_n as_o be_v in_o some_o of_o they_o be_v compose_v after_o a_o sober_a pitiful_a and_o christian-like_a manner_n without_o tart_a or_o bitter_a speech_n than_o it_o be_v possible_a they_o may_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o work_v shame_n and_o repentance_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o offender_n let_v the_o sin_n be_v shame_v rather_o than_o the_o sinner_n the_o particular_n offensive_a than_o the_o person_n offend_v say_v a_o godly_a man_n but_o this_o tart_a manner_n spoil_v all_o for_o first_o it_o make_v the_o offender_n conceive_v that_o the_o author_n and_o approver_n of_o they_o do_v hate_v their_o person_n and_o so_o speak_v out_o of_o malice_n or_o desire_v of_o revenge_n and_o so_o by_o that_o mean_v they_o do_v but_o exasperate_v they_o or_o harden_v they_o and_o rather_o keep_v they_o from_o repentance_n then_o bring_v they_o unto_o it_o and_o beside_o without_o god_n prevent_v grace_n they_o will_v occasion_v the_o reader_n or_o hearer_n of_o they_o either_o to_o hate_v their_o person_n or_o jeer_v they_o or_o both_o it_o be_v a_o most_o intemperate_a zeal_n field_n zeal_n m._n by_o field_n say_v a_o godly_a divine_a that_o spend_v itself_o in_o the_o vain_a and_o bootless_a censure_n of_o the_o estate_n of_o those_o that_o be_v without_o those_o censure_n have_v in_o they_o much_o of_o provocation_n and_o nothing_o of_o edification_n it_o be_v happy_a for_o some_o christian_n if_o they_o can_v with_o the_o apotle_n say_v often_o to_o their_o own_o soul_n 13._o 1_o cor._n 5.12_o 13._o what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v to_o judge_v they_o that_o be_v without_o citt._n well_o sir_n one_o thing_n i_o can_v assure_v you_o of_o upon_o my_o own_o knowledge_n that_o the_o print_n and_o sell_v of_o such_o book_n have_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o help_v many_o a_o poor_a man_n in_o london_n these_o dead_a time_n of_o trade_v gent._n that_o may_v be_v indeed_o and_o yet_o the_o book_n never_o the_o more_o lawful_a or_o warrantable_a for_o that_o you_o know_v we_o must_v not_o do_v evil_a
