correspondent_a but_o though_o we_o have_v confine_v ourselves_o to_o paucity_n for_o good_a respect_n yet_o the_o thing_n itself_o in_o nature_n be_v wonderful_a broad_a now_o let_v the_o scoffer_n of_o this_o our_o doctrine_n appear_v in_o their_o likeness_n &_o show_v their_o face_n if_o they_o dare_v for_o shame_n they_o traduce_v our_o champion_n &_o blaze_v they_o to_o the_o world_n for_o

of_o the_o primitive_a time_n compare_v with_o we_o though_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o in_o many_o respect_v the_o church_n have_v be_v better_v as_o well_o as_o impair_v by_o continuance_n separate_a awhile_o yourselves_o from_o prejudice_n and_o let_v not_o the_o captiousness_n of_o term_n trouble_v you_o consider_v if_o you_o can_v the_o naked_a truth_n why_o shall_v this_o seem_v strange_a in_o your_o ear_n that_o christ_n be_v not_o the_o only_a lawgiver_n of_o his_o church_n in_o the_o sense_n that_o we_o deny_v it_o or_o how_o can_v it_o ever_o be_v avow_v for_o true_a in_o

such_o as_o christ_n have_v establish_v and_o promulge_v with_o his_o own_o mouth_n certain_o i_o will_v produce_v no_o hide_a argument_n certain_o i_o will_v not_o search_v the_o depth_n as_o they_o

be_v according_a to_o godliness_n if_o any_o of_o you_o shall_v command_v your_o servant_n or_o your_o son_n to_o carry_v a_o bible_n with_o they_o to_o church_n upon_o the_o sunday_n under_o pain_n of_o your_o heavy_a displeasure_n if_o they_o do_v not_o do_v you_o think_v it_o be_v a_o law_n that_o may_v be_v break_v or_o no_o a_o law_n doubtless_o it_o be_v as_o be_v tax_v with_o punishment_n upon_o the_o offendor_n yourselves_o will_v think_v it_o fit_a to_o be_v keep_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v break_v and_o yet_o it_o be_v in_o matter_n of_o god_n service_n and_o religion_n for_o let_v no_o man_n deceive_v himself_o my_o dear_a brethren_n not_o willing_o misconstrue_v we_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o ever_o place_v so_o much_o religion_n in_o a_o garment_n as_o you_o do_v in_o a_o book_n and_o yet_o christ_n never_o bid_v it_o and_o it_o be_v leave_v free_a for_o all_o sin_n not_o you_o must_v think_v that_o come_v to_o church_n without_o their_o bibles_n though_o they_o can_v read_v wind_v yourselves_o now_o out_o of_o this_o net_n as_o well_o as_o you_o can_v which_o be_v no_o net_n but_o a_o sound_n and_o substantial_a confutation_n special_o you_o that_o delight_n in_o ambush_n as_o the_o twelve_o reason_n and_o intortele_v syllogism_n or_o if_o you_o say_v that_o christ_n command_v we_o to_o search_v the_o scripture_n well_o though_o that_o do_v not_o enforce_v that_o we_o shall_v carry_v they_o to_o the_o church_n to_o every_o lecture_n or_o sermon_n with_o we_o yet_o let_v the_o former_a supposition_n hold_v but_o in_o lidleye_n prayer_n book_n or_o bradfords_n meditation_n or_o some_o such_o like_a and_o then_o see_v what_o you_o can_v say_v to_o it_o whether_o you_o will_v allow_v your_o servant_n or_o your_o son_n to_o cross_v your_o commandment_n in_o such_o a_o respect_n or_o not_o neither_o again_o may_v you_o except_v that_o the_o bring_n of_o the_o bible_n help_v to_o edify_v the_o ceremony_n not_o for_o the_o ceremony_n edify_v too_o in_o their_o place_n and_o order_n i_o will_v not_o now_o compare_v they_o with_o a_o lie_v man_n bible_n and_o the_o question_n be_v not_o so_o much_o touch_v edification_n if_o you_o mark_v it_o as_o whether_o they_o may_v be_v urge_v upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o believer_n by_o law_n though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o apt_a in_o themselves_o to_o edify_v how_o then_o be_v it_o my_o dear_a brethren_n and_o sister_n of_o this_o city_n may_v your_o prentice_n be_v constrain_v your_o child_n compel_v by_o your_o private_a law-giving_a authority_n thus_o and_o thus_o to_o
