i_o be_o sure_a he_o can_v than_o the_o reader_n know_v what_o to_o judge_v of_o he_o and_o his_o argument_n too_o as_o for_o the_o controversy_n between_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o

if_o they_o serve_v the_o end_n of_o order_n and_o decency_n which_o be_v express_o command_v against_o the_o romanist_n we_o never_o object_v that_o their_o ceremony_n have_v no_o divine_a

only_o to_o make_v the_o act_n of_o devotion_n to_o be_v more_o solemn_a and_o that_o solemnity_n 55._o be_v in_o some_o measure_n a_o necessary_a adjunct_n to_o all_o public_a service_n and_o if_o

a_o very_a terrible_a one_o true_o for_o from_o this_o essay_n it_o be_v pretty_a evident_a that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n must_v either_o free_o declare_v that_o as_o to_o the_o particular_n

believe_v they_o 4_o we_o be_v come_v now_o to_o the_o last_o point_n wherein_o he_o say_v we_o agree_v viz._n to_o give_v to_o one_o bishop_n a_o primacy_n for_o the_o better_a preserve_n catholic_n union_n and_o also_o a_o superior_a power_n of_o appeal_n and_o exercise_v some_o peculiar_a act_n of_o discipline_n under_o the_o regulation_n of_o ecclesiastical_a canon_n now_o all_o this_o indeed_o i_o do_v assert_v and_o yet_o we_o be_v very_o far_o from_o agree_v in_o this_o matter_n for_o though_o they_o make_v no_o more_o of_o the_o pope_n than_o a_o mere_a primate_n which_o i_o doubt_n be_v not_o good_a doctrine_n in_o rome_n yet_o there_o be_v as_o much_o difference_n between_o our_o primate_fw-la as_o there_o be_v between_o a_o national_a and_o ecumenical_a primate_n and_o consequent_o as_o much_o difference_n between_o our_o appeal_n as_o between_o appeal_n to_o rome_n and_o to_o the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n as_o between_o appeal_n to_o the_o primate_n of_o a_o national_a church_n and_o appeal_v to_o foreign_a bishop_n i_o know_v he_o dispute_v very_o learned_o that_o such_o a_o ecumenical_a combination_n of_o church_n and_o a_o ecumenical_a primate_n be_v more_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o cathol_n unity_n than_o a_o national_a church_n or_o primate_n but_o this_o he_o know_v i_o deny_v and_o therefore_o shall_v not_o have_v say_v that_o i_o agree_v with_o they_o in_o it_o and_o who_o have_v the_o best_a reason_n on_o their_o side_n shall_v be_v examine_v present_o by_o this_o time_n i_o suppose_v the_o reader_n be_v satisfy_v how_o far_o we_o agree_v in_o these_o thing_n i_o have_v in_o express_a word_n deny_v every_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v affirm_v in_o these_o very_a book_n to_o which_o he_o have_v appeal_v which_o i_o think_v be_v no_o great_a sign_n of_o agreement_n 2._o it_o be_v time_n now_o to_o vindicate_v those_o passage_n which_o he_o quote_v out_o of_o my_o book_n and_o on_o which_o he_o find_v this_o pretence_n of_o agreement_n between_o we_o and_o to_o do_v this_o effectual_o and_o plain_o i_o must_v as_o i_o go_v along_o brief_o explain_v some_o of_o my_o principle_n which_o our_o author_n either_o do_v not_o understand_v or_o do_v wilful_o misrepresent_v all_o the_o say_n he_o have_v pick_v up_o and_o bring_v together_o from_o one_o end_n of_o the_o book_n to_o other_o relate_v to_o one_o of_o these_o two_o principle_n the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v one_o communion_n or_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o episcopacy_n 1._o as_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n the_o whole_a mystery_n of_o it_o be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o that_o the_o whole_a christian_a church_n by_o the_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v but_o one_o church_n and_o this_o one_o church_n be_v one_o communion_n that_o be_v one_o body_n and_o society_n whereof_o all_o christian_n be_v member_n and_o wherein_o they_o have_v a_o right_a to_o communicate_v in_o all_o christian_a privilege_n and_o have_v both_o a_o right_n and_o obligation_n to_o communicate_v in_o all_o christian_a duty_n this_o our_o author_n 7._o put_v in_o the_o second_o place_n though_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v the_o first_o as_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o that_o all_o christian_n and_o christian_a church_n in_o the_o world_n be_v one_o body_n society_n or_o church_n and_o this_o be_v call_v catholic_n communion_n for_o they_o be_v all_o one_o body_n they_o communicate_v with_o each_o other_o in_o this_o one_o body_n in_o all_o the_o duty_n and_o privilege_n of_o it_o and_o what_o advantage_n he_o can_v make_v make_v of_o this_o i_o can_v yet_o guess_v unless_o he_o think_v that_o the_o very_a name_n catholic_n be_v one_o of_o bellarmin_n note_n of_o the_o church_n catholic_n communion_n must_v signify_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n of_o rome_n my_o adversary_n hear_v this_o word_n communion_n present_o conclude_v that_o i_o place_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n in_o some_o mere_a transient_a act_n of_o communion_n and_o dispute_v very_o earnest_o against_o it_o as_o well_o they_o may_v but_o this_o mistake_n i_o rectify_v in_o my_o vindication_n and_o show_v they_o that_o one_o communion_n signify_v one_o body_n and_o society_n in_o which_o all_o the_o member_n 36._o communicate_v with_o each_o other_o which_o i_o explain_v by_o this_o familiar_a comparison_n suppose_v the_o whole_a world_n be_v one_o family_n or_o one_o kingdom_n in_o which_o every_o particular_a man_n according_a to_o his_o rank_n and_o station_n enjoy_v equal_a privilege_n in_o this_o case_n the_o necessity_n of_o affair_n will_v require_v that_o man_n shall_v live_v in_o distinct_a house_n and_o distinct_a country_n as_o now_o they_o do_v all_o the_o world_n over_o but_o yet_o if_o every_o man_n enjoy_v the_o same_o liberty_n and_o privilege_n wherever_o he_o go_v as_o he_o do_v now_o in_o his_o own_o house_n and_o country_n the_o whole_a world_n will_v be_v but_o one_o house_n and_o family_n or_o universal_a kingdom_n and_o whosoever_o shall_v resolve_v to_o live_v by_o himself_o and_o not_o receive_v any_o other_o into_o his_o family_n nor_o allow_v they_o the_o liberty_n of_o his_o house_n will_v be_v guilty_a of_o make_v a_o schism_n in_o this_o great_a family_n of_o the_o world_n and_o what_o nation_n soever_o shall_v deny_v the_o right_n and_o privilege_n of_o natural_a subject_n to_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o other_o country_n will_v make_v a_o schism_n and_o rend_v itself_o from_o this_o universal_a kingdom_n i_o add_v thus_o it_o be_v here_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v but_o one_o body_n one_o church_n one_o household_n and_o family_n one_o kingdom_n these_o word_n our_o author_n set_v in_o the_o front_n and_o think_v to_o make_v something_o of_o they_o for_o see_v all_o know_v that_o to_o make_v the_o whole_a world_n one_o universal_a kingdom_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o it_o be_v subject_v under_o one_o govern_v head_n it_o unavoidable_o follow_v that_o unless_o in_o the_o catholic_n church_n there_o be_v one_o supreme_a govern_v head_n it_o can_v be_v like_a to_o a_o universal_a kingdom_n a_o organise_v politic_a body_n very_o right_a have_v i_o compare_v the_o catholic_n church_n to_o a_o universal_a kingdom_n with_o respect_n to_o government_n the_o consequence_n have_v be_v good_a but_o compare_v it_o only_o with_o respect_n to_o communion_n the_o consequence_n be_v ridiculous_a and_o yet_o this_o be_v all_o i_o intend_v in_o the_o comparison_n as_o appear_v from_o the_o application_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o though_o the_o necessity_n of_o affair_n require_v that_o neighbour_n christian_n combine_v themselves_o into_o particular_a church_n &_o particular_a congregation_n as_o the_o world_n be_v divide_v into_o particular_a family_n and_o kingdom_n which_o show_v that_o i_o no_o more_o subject_a the_o church_n to_o one_o governing-head_n than_o i_o do_v the_o world_n to_o one_o universal_a monarch_n now_o it_o be_v divide_v into_o particular_a kingdom_n yet_o every_o christian_a by_o virtue_n of_o his_o christianity_n have_v the_o same_o right_n and_o privilege_n and_o the_o same_o obligation_n to_o communion_n as_o occasion_n serve_v with_o all_o the_o church_n in_o the_o world_n that_o he_o have_v with_o that_o particular_a church_n wherein_o he_o live_v wherever_o he_o remove_v his_o dwell_n whatever_o church_n he_o go_v to_o he_o be_v still_o in_o the_o same_o family_n the_o same_o kingdom_n and_o the_o same_o church_n now_o whether_o this_o be_v a_o good_a consequence_n that_o because_o i_o make_v the_o whole_a christian_a church_n one_o family_n and_o kingdom_n with_o respect_n to_o christian_a communion_n that_o be_v that_o all_o true_a christian_n have_v a_o right_n to_o communion_n in_o all_o true_a christian_a church_n in_o the_o world_n therefore_o i_o subject_a the_o whole_a
