worthy_a brethren_n of_o far_o great_a part_n and_o endowment_n than_o myself_o that_o induce_v i_o thus_o public_o to_o appear_v with_o the_o ensue_a tract_n but_o it_o be_v the_o hideous_a noise_n that_o the_o rend_n and_o tear_v of_o church_n make_v that_o rouse_v i_o up_o and_o provoke_v i_o thus_o public_o to_o expose_v myself_o to_o the_o censure_n of_o many_o when_o i_o may_v have_v sleep_v secure_o in_o a_o whole_a skin_n with_o my_o sentiment_n lock_v up_o in_o my_o own_o breast_n but_o i_o see_v what_o do_v i_o see_v why_o i_o think_v i_o see_v the_o spark_n of_o misguide_a and_o intemperate_a zeal_n in_o divers_a well_o mean_v man_n to_o set_v some_o church_n in_o a_o flame_n which_o like_o the_o dreadful_a conflagration_n in_o london_n burn_v down_o to_o the_o ground_n many_o famous_a though_o not_o parish_n church_n all_o that_o have_v appear_v in_o print_n about_o this_o subject_a so_o far_o as_o i_o observe_v have_v cry_v out_o peace_n and_o truth_n yet_o notwithstanding_o to_o my_o discern_a have_v fill_v their_o bucket_n with_o oil_n and_o throw_v they_o into_o the_o flame_n how_o that_o can_v quench_v it_o judge_v you_o nay_o think_v i_o if_o all_o your_o print_n be_v in_o that_o fashion_n the_o fire_n will_v never_o be_v quench_v so_o i_o get_v my_o bucket_n as_o i_o trust_v full_a of_o cordial_a water_n and_o away_o come_v i_o to_o the_o press_n i_o think_v if_o i_o can_v be_v but_o instrumental_a to_o quench_v and_o save_v one_o post_n or_o beam_n of_o the_o church_n my_o labour_n will_v not_o be_v lose_v and_o i_o shall_v do_v more_o good_a than_o they_o that_o administer_v oil._n beside_o i_o consider_v that_o those_o little_a book_n or_o bucket_n of_o oil_n be_v very_o frequent_a every_o year_n or_o half_a year_n out_o come_v a_o piece_n cry_v heresy_n heresy_n but_o not_o one_o come_v like_o the_o dove_n with_o the_o olive_n branch_n of_o peace_n in_o their_o mouth_n neither_o be_v there_o one_o word_n tend_v that_o way_n in_o any_o of_o their_o write_n and_o hereby_o many_o young_a convert_v as_o well_o as_o other_o be_v much_o puzzle_v and_o make_v to_o doubt_v wherefore_o i_o think_v if_o something_o be_v say_v public_o to_o demonstrate_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o safe_a medium_fw-la and_o correspondence_n find_v out_o and_o maintain_v betwixt_o the_o two_o party_n it_o may_v be_v acceptable_a to_o the_o doubtful_a and_o through_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n may_v become_v successful_a to_o help_v the_o tender_a conscience_n there_o be_v some_o so_o confident_a and_o settle_a that_o i_o have_v no_o hope_n of_o they_o but_o then_o i_o consider_v there_o be_v many_o have_v not_o renounce_v their_o reason_n and_o therefore_o will_v hear_v reason_n to_o such_o i_o speak_v i_o know_v some_o will_v throw_v away_o my_o write_n as_o dirt_n while_o other_o will_v condemn_v it_o ever_o they_o hear_v it_o yet_o as_o god_n have_v heretofore_o bless_v my_o poor_a endeavour_n and_o discourse_n of_o this_o kind_n with_o success_n so_o i_o trust_v these_o my_o labour_n will_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a neither_o can_v i_o expect_v to_o want_v reader_n since_o there_o be_v some_o and_o not_o a_o few_o who_o know_v i_o and_o of_o they_o not_o a_o few_o that_o love_v i_o and_o they_o will_v read_v i_o because_o they_o love_v i_o and_o there_o be_v some_o and_o not_o a_o few_o that_o do_v not_o love_v i_o nor_o the_o design_n i_o here_o pursue_v and_o they_o will_v read_v i_o to_o see_v what_o they_o can_v pick_v up_o against_o i_o and_o there_o be_v some_o and_o not_o a_o few_o that_o be_v stagger_v in_o their_o own_o mind_n and_o they_o will_v read_v i_o for_o their_o own_o satisfaction_n because_o they_o long_v to_o hear_v what_o can_v be_v say_v for_o moderation_n moreover_o i_o be_v induce_v to_o take_v this_o course_n partly_o because_o a_o book_n will_v come_v to_o speak_v where_o i_o can_v and_o possible_o when_o i_o can_v partly_o because_o in_o argue_v this_o case_n i_o find_v that_o too_o common_o there_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v heat_n and_o passion_n which_o common_o prevent_v person_n consider_v what_o be_v say_v and_o the_o argument_n be_v many_o time_n cut_v off_o by_o the_o buttock_n and_o so_o condemn_v because_o not_o well_o understand_v i_o have_v see_v some_o man_n about_o these_o thing_n so_o eager_o contend_v that_o heat_n have_v blind_v they_o and_o like_o man_n tie_v back_o to_o back_n though_o they_o be_v close_o together_o yet_o they_o can_v not_o see_v one_o another_o but_o now_o have_v my_o book_n in_o their_o hand_n they_o may_v deliberate_o consider_v all_o my_o argument_n to_o the_o end_n without_o those_o molestation_n which_o often_o happen_v in_o debate_n and_o if_o any_o man_n fall_v into_o a_o passion_n with_o my_o paper_n when_o my_o person_n be_v not_o present_a if_o i_o hear_v of_o it_o i_o shall_v think_v he_o to_o be_v as_o some_o of_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o the_o tribe_n of_o dan_n

notwithstanding_o the_o present_a controversy_n yet_o none_o that_o i_o know_v of_o have_v public_o appear_v to_o vindicate_v such_o a_o practice_n and_o i_o wish_v this_o my_o attempt_n may_v be_v
