A97096	The compassionate Samaritane unbinding the conscience, and powring oyle into the wounds which have beene made upon the separation: recommending their future welfare to the serious thoughts, and carefull endeavours of all who love the peace and unity of Commonwealths men, or desire the unanimous prosecution of the common enemie, or who follow our Saviours rule, to doe unto others, what they would have others doe unto them.

whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n and_o that_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v full_o persuade_v of_o the_o trueness_n of_o that_o way_n wherein_o he_o seructh_v the_o lord_n upon_o

whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n to_o compel_v i_o therefore_o against_o my_o conscience_n be_v to_o compel_v i_o to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v sinful_a for_o though_o the_o thing_n

tyrant_n but_o to_o the_o objection_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o diversity_n of_o man_n judgement_n be_v not_o the_o occasion_n of_o division_n because_o the_o word_n division_n have_v reference_n to_o fall_v off_o from_o the_o common_a cause_n now_o though_o the_o provocation_n and_o incitement_n against_o the_o brownist_n and_o anabaptist_n and_o some_o of_o the_o independent_o have_v be_v many_o

they_o cease_v to_o love_v and_o assist_v their_o country_n and_o it_o be_v more_o than_o evident_a by_o the_o prosperity_n of_o our_o neighbour_n in_o holland_n that_o the_o several_a way_n of_o our_o brethren_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n hinder_v not_o but_o that_o they_o may_v live_v peaceable_o one_o among_o a_o other_o and_o the_o spaniard_n will_v witness_v for_o they_o that_o they_o unite_v sufficient_o in_o the_o defence_n of_o their_o common_a liberty_n and_o opposition_n of_o their_o common_a enemy_n beside_o it_o be_v very_o material_a to_o consider_v that_o it_o have_v ever_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o those_o that_o be_v countenance_v by_o authority_n to_o endeavour_v the_o suppression_n of_o those_o that_o be_v not_o who_o be_v therefore_o in_o the_o fault_n the_o

he_o think_v himself_o bind_v to_o do_v or_o they_o who_o out_o of_o a_o lordly_a disposition_n care_v not_o what_o injury_n they_o do_v to_o other_o though_o to_o the_o hazard_n of_o the_o
