A81336	A collection of speeches made by Sir Edward Dering Knight and Baronet, in matter of religion. Some formerly printed, and divers more now added: all of them revised, for the vindication of his name, from weake and wilfull calumnie: and by the same Sir Edward Dering now subjected to publike view and censure, upon the urgent importunity of many, both gentlemen and divines.	Dering, Edward, Sir, 1598-1644.	1642 (1642)	Wing D1104; Thomason E197_1; ESTC R212668	73,941	173

of_o what_o be_v here_o but_o promise_v i_o do_v humble_o move_v that_o you_o will_v command_v forth_o the_o bill_n for_o a_o national_a synod_n to_o be_v read_v the_o next_o morning_n i_o see_v the_o

that_o you_o will_v name_v a_o committee_n to_o draw_v up_o another_o this_o be_v once_o resolve_v i_o will_v then_o desire_v that_o all_o motion_n of_o religion_n this_o about_o the_o liturgy_n especial_o may_v be_v transfer_v thither_o and_o you_o will_v find_v it_o to_o be_v the_o way_n of_o peace_n and_o unity_n among_o we_o here_o i_o may_v have_v add_v in_o due_a place_n above_o a_o mention_n of_o 1_o frequent_a schismatical_a conventicle_n 2_o that_o tailor_n shoemaker_n brazier_n feltmaker_n do_v climb_v our_o public_a pulpit_n 3_o that_o several_a odd_a irregular_a fast_n have_v be_v hold_v for_o partial_a vent_n of_o private_a flattery_n of_o some_o slander_n of_o other_o member_n of_o this_o house_n 4_o that_o the_o distinction_n of_o clergy_n and_o laity_n be_v popish_a and_o antichristian_a and_o ought_v no_o long_o to_o remain_v 5_o that_o the_o lord_n prayer_n be_v not_o teach_v we_o to_o be_v use_v 6_o that_o no_o national_a church_n can_v be_v a_o true_a church_n of_o god_n 7_o that_o the_o visible_a church_n of_o antichrist_n do_v make_v the_o king_n head_n of_o the_o church_n 8_o that_o supreme_a power_n in_o church_n affair_n be_v in_o

present_a when_o prayer_n be_v read_v out_o of_o a_o book_n 11_o that_o to_o communicate_v in_o presence_n of_o a_o profane_a person_n be_v to_o partake_v of_o his_o profaneness_n 12_o that_o christ_n kingdom_n have_v be_v a_o candle_n under_o a_o bushel_n while_o antichrist_n have_v out-raign_v he_o for_o 1600_o year_n together_o many_o many_o more_o instance_n at_o little_a leisure_n i_o can_v gather_v which_o together_o have_v beget_v a_o general_a increase_n of_o open_a libertinism_n secret_a atheism_n bold_a arminianism_n desperate_a socinianism_n stupid_a anabaptism_n and_o with_o these_o the_o new_a chiliast_n and_o the_o wilfulness_n of_o papist_n strange_o and_o strong_o confirm_v by_o these_o distraction_n good_a god_n look_v down_o and_o direct_v our_o consultation_n the_o best_a issue_n whereof_o i_o think_v will_v be_v to_o debate_v the_o whole_a debate_n of_o religion_n out_o of_o our_o door_n by_o put_v it_o into_o a_o free_a synod_n whereupon_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o we_o shall_v grow_v unanimous_a in_o all_o our_o other_o work_n section_n xv_o the_o remonstrance_n or_o great_a declaration_n go_v out_o of_o the_o house_n much_o better_a than_o it_o come_v in_o when_o it_o be_v engross_v and_o present_v to_o the_o last_o vote_n with_o we_o i_o give_v in_o my_o exception_n thus_o 22_o novemb._n 1641._o mr._n speaker_n this_o remonstrance_n be_v now_o in_o progress_n upon_o its_o last_o foot_n in_o this_o house_n i_o must_v give_v a_o vote_n unto_o it_o one_o way_n or_o other_o my_o conscience_n bid_v i_o not_o to_o dare_v to_o be_v affirmative_a

leave_v such_o a_o character_n behind_o both_o of_o his_o majesty_n the_o people_n the_o parliament_n and_o of_o this_o present_a church_n and_o state_n as_o no_o time_n shall_v ever_o eat_v it_o out_o while_o history_n be_v write_v and_o man_n have_v eye_n to_o read_v they_o how_o curious_a then_o ought_v we_o to_o be_v both_o in_o the_o matter_n and_o the_o form_n herein_o be_v a_o severe_a

a_o modest_a and_o a_o sober_a language_n mr._n speaker_n this_o remonstrance_n be_v in_o some_o kind_n great_a and_o more_o extensive_a than_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n that_o reach_v only_o to_o

and_o worth_n but_o what_o be_v that_o to_o i_o if_o i_o may_v not_o have_v they_o without_o other_o part_n that_o be_v both_o doubtful_a and_o dangerous_a the_o matter_n form_n and_o final_a end_n of_o this_o remonstrance_n all_o of_o they_o do_v argue_v with_o i_o not_o to_o remonstrate_v thus_o the_o end_n to_o what_o end_n do_v we_o decline_v thus_o to_o they_o that_o look_v not_o for_o it_o wherefore_o be_v this_o descension_n from_o a_o parliament_n to_o a_o people_n they_o look_v not_o up_o for_o this_o so_o extraordinary_a courtesy_n the_o better_a sort_n think_v best_a of_o we_o and_o why_o be_v we_o tell_v that_o the_o people_n be_v expectant_a for_o a_o declaration_n i_o do_v never_o look_v for_o it_o of_o my_o predecessor_n in_o this_o place_n nor_o shall_v do_v from_o

do_v mr._n speaker_n when_o i_o first_o hear_v of_o a_o remonstrance_n i_o present_o imagine_v that_o like_o faithful_a counsellor_n we_o shall_v hold_v up_o a_o glass_n unto_o his_o majesty_n i_o think_v to_o represent_v unto_o the_o king_n the_o wicked_a counsel_n of_o pernicious_a counsellor_n the_o restless_a turbulency_n of_o practical_a papist_n the_o treachery_n of_o false_a judge_n the_o bold_a innovation_n and_o some_o superstition_n bring_v in_o by_o some_o pragmatical_a bb_o and_o the_o rot_a part_n of_o the_o clergy_n i_o do_v not_o dream_v that_o we_o shall_v remonstrate_v downward_o tell_v story_n to_o the_o people_n and_o talk_v of_o the_o king_n as_o of_o a_o three_o person_n the_o use_n and_o end_n of_o such_o remonstrance_n i_o understand_v not_o at_o least_o i_o
