you_o so_o void_a of_o true_a piety_n towards_o that_o honourable_a house_n or_o judge_v you_o that_o house_n so_o void_a of_o common_a reason_n be_v as_o they_o be_v indeed_o the_o very_a eye_n of_o the_o whole_a land_n the_o ear_n of_o the_o whole_a land_n and_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o whole_a land_n yea_o the_o hand_n and_o power_n of_o the_o whole_a land_n be_v so_o as_o i_o conceive_v in_o my_o simplicity_n will_v you_o have_v they_o i_o say_v to_o be_v blind_a of_o one_o eye_n and_o to_o look_v upon_o the_o petition_n and_o complaint_n of_o some_o of_o the_o people_n of_o the_o land_n and_o not_o upon_o all_o will_v you_o have_v they_o so_o partial_a will_v you_o have_v they_o also_o deaf_a of_o one_o ●are_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o harken_v to_o the_o cry_n and_o petition_n and_o complaint_n of_o all_o the_o king_n subject_n one_o as_o well_o as_o another_o will_v you_o have_v they_o also_o so_o defective_a in_o their_o tongue_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v for_o the_o praise_n of_o they_o that_o do_v well_o as_o well_o as_o for_o the_o punishment_n of_o evil_a doer_n nay_o see_v they_o be_v call_v god_n *_o 6._o will_v you_o have_v their_o hand_n so_o shorten_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o once_o stretch_v they_o forth_o to_o support_v and_o help_v the_o poor_a afflict_a member_n of_o jesus_n christ_n then_o indeed_o you_o will_v have_v they_o very_o unlike_a unto_o moses_n even_o as_o unlike_o as_o yourselves_o be_v unto_o aaron_n will_v you_o have_v this_o house_n to_o exercise_v their_o power_n upon_o person_n before_o they_o have_v make_v due_a trial_n of_o the_o cause_n by_o hear_v witness_n speak_v on_o both_o side_n true_o mr._n edward_n if_o you_o will_v as_o it_o appear_v plain_a it_o be_v your_o mind_n than_o i_o will_v submit_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o both_o the_o house_n of_o parliament_n whether_o you_o be_v not_o a_o man_n void_a of_o common_a reason_n for_o he_o be_v a_o fool_n that_o judge_v a_o matter_n before_o he_o know_v it_o and_o you_o be_v not_o only_o void_a of_o reason_n yourself_o but_o you_o will_v have_v the_o parliament_n to_o be_v like_o you_o for_o if_o the_o parliament_n shall_v judge_v a_o man_n before_o they_o hear_v his_o cause_n they_o will_v be_v like_o the_o court_n at_o lambeth_n which_o be_v use_v to_o sit_v in_o the_o high_a priest_n hall_n judgeing_a matter_n without_o due_a trial_n further_o you_o say_v you_o be_v persuade_v that_o it_o will_v never_o be_v say_v of_o this_o parliament_n that_o they_o open_v a_o door_n for_o toleration_n for_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o i_o conceive_v they_o may_v receive_v a_o petition_n and_o yet_o not_o open_v a_o door_n for_o toleration_n i_o mean_v for_o such_o a_o toleration_n as_o you_o here_o speak_v of_o for_o set_v up_o church_n against_o church_n for_o that_o be_v not_o the_o toleration_n that_o we_o plead_v for_o but_o your_o evil_a conclusion_n and_o therefore_o you_o may_v pray_v if_o you_o will_v that_o that_o door_n may_v be_v keep_v shut_v and_o we_o will_v pray_v also_o that_o all_o door_n may_v be_v keep_v shut_v that_o will_v let_v any_o evil_n into_o the_o kingdom_n in_o process_n of_o time_n lest_o that_o any_o succeed_a generation_n shall_v have_v cause_n to_o write_v in_o their_o chronicle_n of_o this_o parliament_n as_o it_o be_v write_v of_o naaman_n the_o syrian_a that_o be_v as_o you_o say_v it_o will_v be_v say_v of_o they_o but_o they_o grant_v a_o toleration_n moreover_o we_o desire_v nothing_o at_o their_o hand_n that_o may_v cast_v a_o dark_a shadow_n upon_o their_o glorious_a light_n but_o that_o which_o we_o desire_v be_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n to_o practise_v god_n true_a worship_n in_o the_o land_n wherein_o we_o be_v bear_v which_o will_v be_v no_o blemish_n to_o any_o christian_a magistrate_n to_o grant_v nor_o for_o any_o counsel_n of_o state_n to_o establish_v and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v not_o have_v conclude_v this_o your_o discourse_n against_o independency_n and_o against_o toleration_n before_o you_o have_v offer_v it_o to_o the_o trial_n before_o some_o lawful_a committee_n choose_v by_o the_o parliament_n to_o hear_v both_o you_o and_o they_o and_o then_o if_o you_o can_v have_v maintain_v your_o church_n of_o england_n which_o you_o plead_v for_o with_o your_o synod_n and_o counsel_n ceremony_n and_o book-worship_n canon_n and_o censure_n citation_n degradation_n and_o excommunication_n with_o your_o absolution_n to_o be_v found_v upon_o the_o substance_n of_o that_o worship_n and_o discipline_n which_o you_o say_v calvin_n affirm_v be_v express_v in_o the_o scripture_n then_o you_o may_v with_o the_o more_o show_n of_o honesty_n have_v admoninish_v the_o parliament_n to_o have_v cast_v out_o their_o petition_n but_o till_o than_o you_o may_v lay_v your_o hand_n upon_o your_o mouth_n and_o never_o for_o shame_n affirm_v that_o the_o grant_n of_o toleration_n unto_o we_o to_o worship_v god_n without_o molestation_n will_v be_v set_v up_o church_n against_o church_n neither_o ought_v you_o to_o have_v conclude_v against_o they_o before_o you_o have_v prove_v their_o way_n of_o worship_n to_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o not_o to_o have_v foot_v in_o his_o word_n as_o you_o have_v not_o for_o except_v you_o have_v do_v this_o you_o have_v small_a cause_n to_o rejoice_v in_o your_o thought_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o account_n that_o you_o be_v to_o give_v about_o this_o controversy_n for_o your_o controversy_n can_v be_v conceive_v at_o the_o best_a to_o be_v but_o the_o controversy_n that_o paul_n have_v when_o he_o go_v unto_o damascus_n which_o be_v a_o controversy_n against_o christ_n *_o 5._o though_o christ_n in_o his_o rich_a grace_n pardon_v he_o when_o he_o have_v smite_v he_o down_o and_o drive_v he_o out_o of_o himself_o and_o make_v he_o to_o confess_v that_o he_o know_v not_o christ_n in_o these_o word_n where_o he_o say_v lord_n who_o art_n thou_o and_o further_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o know_v not_o the_o will_n of_o christ_n by_o ask_v he_o with_o these_o word_n what_o will_v thou_o have_v i_o to_o doe_n thus_o you_o may_v see_v though_o the_o controversy_n be_v against_o christ_n yet_o paul_n be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n the_o father_n by_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n and_o endue_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o make_v he_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o all_o his_o human_a learning_n can_v not_o do_v and_o paul_n may_v have_v boast_v that_o he_o be_v stir_v up_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n against_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n as_o you_o boast_v that_o you_o be_v stir_v up_o by_o god_n spirit_n against_o the_o way_n of_o separation_n but_o that_o will_v not_o have_v justify_v paul_n much_o less_o shall_v it_o justify_v you_o for_o paul_n do_v that_o he_o do_v out_o of_o a_o zeal_n to_o maintain_v the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o you_o be_v to_o maintain_v the_o law_n of_o sin_n even_o the_o law_n of_o satan_n paul_n persecute_v those_o that_o he_o do_v conceive_v to_o be_v evil_a but_o you_o persecute_v those_o that_o you_o acknowledge_v good_a man_n and_o such_o as_o have_v be_v active_a and_o famous_a for_o god_n and_o therefore_o you_o have_v no_o need_n to_o boast_v of_o the_o spirit_n enable_v you_o all_o along_o and_o that_o above_o your_o own_o strength_n as_o you_o declare_v for_o it_o may_v plain_o appear_v unto_o all_o man_n of_o understanding_n that_o it_o be_v the_o very_a spirit_n of_o delusion_n and_o therefore_o you_o may_v just_o expect_v censure_n and_o reproach_n as_o you_o say_v you_o do_v because_o your_o way_n in_o this_o action_n be_v not_o please_v to_o god_n but_o for_o my_o part_n instead_o of_o censure_v you_o i_o will_v rather_o reprove_v you_o and_o admonish_v you_o rather_o than_o reproach_v you_o and_o pray_v that_o god_n may_v turn_v you_o and_o if_o god_n will_v be_v please_v to_o give_v you_o that_o reward_n of_o your_o labour_n which_o he_o give_v unto_o paul_n even_o to_o strike_v you_o down_o and_o to_o make_v you_o to_o hear_v his_o voice_n and_o learn_v to_o know_v he_o and_o what_o he_o will_v have_v you_o to_o do_v than_o it_o will_v turn_v much_o to_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o comfort_n of_o your_o poor_a soul_n if_o you_o be_v a_o choose_a vessel_n unto_o he_o which_o be_v the_o thing_n you_o pretend_v you_o aim_v at_o and_o then_o you_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o gain_v truth_n and_o love_n and_o peace_n and_o holiness_n in_o all_o your_o after_o discourse_n when_o you_o shall_v speak_v with_o a_o new_a tongue_n and_o express_v the_o language_n of_o canaan_n and_o now_o mr._n edward_n for_o conclusion_n of_o the_o whole_a i_o do_v here_o affirm_v that_o if_o
