which_o be_v too_o much_o by_o master_n goodwin_n and_o other_o in_o pulpit_n and_o in_o print_a pamphlet_n plead_v for_o i_o have_v hear_v some_o press_n it_o from_o the_o example_n of_o amsterdame_v that_o it_o be_v so_o there_o and_o i_o can_v help_v they_o to_o one_o place_n more_o which_o be_v at_o constantinople_n where_o the_o turk_n have_v place_n for_o mahomet_n to_o be_v worship_v and_o they_o allow_v the_o jew_n their_o synagouge_n for_o worship_n and_o also_o the_o greek_n have_v their_o public_a place_n for_o worship_n so_o the_o french_a italian_n and_o english_a have_v all_o their_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n now_o if_o the_o turk_n follow_v the_o hollander_n in_o this_o particular_a or_o the_o hollander_n take_v it_o from_o the_o turk_n in_o they_o both_o it_o be_v but_o for_o money_n and_o trade_n sake_n and_o not_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n which_o god_n forbid_v shall_v ever_o be_v so_o in_o england_n but_o rather_o let_v we_o follow_v the_o best_a example_n of_o the_o saint_n out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n where_o good_a nehemiah_n will_v not_o suffer_v the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v violate_v by_o sell_v of_o ware_n and_o commodity_n which_o some_o in_o my_o hear_n and_o not_o dwell_v far_o off_o from_o i_o do_v plead_v for_o and_o practice_v work_v on_o their_o calling_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o do_v this_o out_o of_o pretence_n of_o conscience_n i_o pray_v be_v it_o a_o good_a law_n or_o no_o in_o nebuchadnezar_n in_o daniel_n 3.29_o where_o he_o make_v decree_n against_o any_o which_o speak_v any_o thing_n against_o the_o god_n of_o shadrach_n meshech_n and_o abednego_n shall_v be_v cut_v in_o piece_n much_o more_o it_o will_v hold_v good_a against_o any_o that_o act_n against_o the_o know_a law_n of_o god_n to_o come_v near_o the_o gospel_n you_o may_v find_v in_o that_o evangelicall_n prophet_n zachariah_n 13.3_o it_o be_v say_v thou_o shall_v not_o live_v for_o thou_o speak_v lie_n against_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o that_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o pretend_a conscience_n have_v any_o allowance_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v the_o apostle_n and_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n when_o they_o suffer_v use_v this_o argument_n you_o magistrate_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o our_o conscience_n but_o plead_v the_o justness_n of_o their_o cause_n and_o innocency_n of_o their_o person_n yet_o not_o that_o i_o will_v have_v any_o man_n that_o be_v a_o native_a english_a one_o though_o a_o jew_n in_o opinion_n or_o a_o papist_n or_o any_o else_o that_o now_o be_v to_o be_v banish_v nor_o imprison_v nor_o fine_v for_o his_o conscience_n and_o opinion_n but_o that_o i_o will_v not_o have_v they_o to_o congregate_v and_o draw_v other_o after_o they_o but_o if_o it_o be_v their_o light_n as_o they_o pretend_v or_o their_o faith_n let_v they_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v have_v it_o to_o themselves_o and_o that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o stop_n to_o these_o flood_n of_o error_n that_o be_v cast_v out_o against_o the_o church_n and_o truth_n i_o conceive_v this_o course_n may_v be_v take_v that_o no_o man_n shall_v take_v upon_o he_o nor_o be_v suffer_v to_o officiate_v in_o a_o ministerial_a way_n as_o a_o pastor_n over_o a_o people_n but_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v approve_v on_o and_o allow_v by_o authority_n as_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v so_o in_o new-england_n and_o not_o a_o toleration_n for_o every_o man_n to_o vent_v his_o own_o brain_n and_o error_n for_o where_o then_o will_v the_o guilt_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o have_v be_v shed_v lie_n if_o toleration_n may_v be_v suffer_v the_o papist_n sure_o will_v never_o have_v go_v in_o the_o field_n to_o have_v their_o belly_n shoot_v through_o with_o bullet_n nor_o our_o ignorant_a country_n people_n in_o county_n and_o shire_n will_v never_o have_v rise_v by_o thousand_o if_o they_o may_v have_v have_v the_o service_n book_n and_o good_a old_a prayer_n as_o they_o call_v they_o
