yet_o be_v not_o this_o in_o heart_n and_o with_o affection_n but_o only_o in_o word_n but_o all_o these_o allegation_n be_v so_o feeble_a and_o these_o reply_n be_v so_o frivelous_a that_o they_o deserve_v none_o answer_v at_o all_o and_o i_o be_o very_o certain_a that_o the_o most_o part_n of_o you_o my_o brethren_n have_v sometime_o reject_v they_o as_o not_o worthy_a to_o be_v receive_v and_o of_o none_o importance_n when_o they_o will_v have_v pay_v you_o with_o such_o money_n yea_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o laugh_v at_o they_o even_o at_o this_o time_n in_o your_o own_o heart_n and_o that_o for_o good_a cause_n for_o where_o can_v you_o find_v that_o the_o lord_n have_v permit_v we_o to_o make_v such_o a_o partition_n between_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n as_o with_o the_o one_o to_o serve_v god_n and_o the_o devil_n with_o the_o other_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n the_o creator_n and_o saviour_n aswell_o of_o the_o one_o as_o of_o the_o other_o will_v not_o he_o be_v glorify_v in_o both_o we_o know_v that_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v we_o to_o offer_v not_o only_o our_o spirit_n but_o also_o our_o body_n to_o the_o lord_n in_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v that_o we_o consecrate_v and_o dedicate_v ourselves_o to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o that_o which_o more_o be_v our_o body_n be_v call_v by_o the_o apostle_n the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o must_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o his_o glory_n aswell_o as_o ourselves_o even_o then_o when_o we_o shall_v be_v fashion_v according_a to_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n it_o follow_v then_o that_o we_o must_v not_o serve_v the_o devil_n therewith_o pollute_v they_o with_o superstition_n &_o idolatry_n but_o we_o must_v keep_v they_o in_o all_o pureness_n and_o holiness_n for_o the_o service_n of_o our_o god_n for_o what_o husband_n be_v he_o that_o be_v so_o foolish_a which_o will_v take_v such_o a_o answer_n for_o payment_n at_o his_o wife_n hand_n and_o that_o will_v suffer_v she_o to_o make_v such_o a_o partition_n if_o a_o woman_n be_v so_o impudent_a and_o shameless_a as_o to_o speak_v to_o her_o husband_n on_o this_o wise_a my_o husband_n i_o prostitute_v my_o body_n indeed_o to_o such_o &_o such_o and_o make_v it_o common_a every_o day_n in_o the_o brothelhouse_n but_o i_o reserve_v the_o better_a part_n for_o you_o and_o that_o be_v my_o heart_n wherewith_o i_o love_v you_o serve_v and_o honour_v you_o i_o pray_v you_o shall_v not_o such_o a_o woman_n deserve_v to_o be_v cast_v off_o of_o her_o husband_n as_o a_o mocker_n or_o rather_o as_o a_o common_a vile_a and_o detestable_a harlot_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o she_o shall_v what_o will_v the_o lord_n than_o do_v who_o be_v jealous_a over_o his_o glory_n and_o our_o salvation_n who_o have_v espouse_v we_o to_o himself_o that_o keep_v our_o faith_n and_o promise_v make_v to_o he_o we_o may_v be_v pure_a and_o chaste_a in_o body_n and_o mind_n what_o will_v he_o do_v i_o say_v if_o we_o pollute_v our_o body_n in_o idolatry_n which_o be_v spiritual_a whoredom_n wherefore_o we_o see_v that_o this_o be_v a_o vain_a excuse_n for_o indeed_o if_o this_o partition_n can_v have_v be_v make_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o prostrate_v the_o body_n before_o idol_n and_o to_o keep_v the_o heart_n for_o god_n think_v we_o that_o daniel_n and_o the_o three_o hebrew_n child_n will_v not_o rather_o have_v use_v this_o opportunity_n then_o to_o have_v expose_v their_o life_n to_o so_o great_a danger_n see_v there_o be_v nothing_o require_v at_o their_o hand_n save_v only_o a_o outward_a kind_n of_o worship_n but_o what_o shall_v we_o say_v of_o so_o many_o martyr_n who_o memory_n be_v fresh_a as_o yet_o who_o will_v rather_o shed_v the_o last_o drop_n of_o their_o blood_n or_o be_v burn_v alive_a with_o soft_a fire_n then_o once_o to_o bow_v their_o knee_n before_o baal_n how_o little_a soever_o it_o be_v why_o do_v they_o it_o not_o for_o safeguard_n of_o their_o life_n to_o preserve_v it_o from_o so_o cruel_a torment_n and_o from_o the_o fire_n because_o they_o fear_v eternal_a torment_n and_o the_o fire_n of_o god_n wrath_n who_o abhor_v such_o idolatry_n what_o protestation_n soever_o we_o make_v that_o we_o keep_v our_o heart_n whole_a and_o pure_a for_o he_o for_o he_o will_v have_v both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o now_o it_o may_v appear_v by_o that_o what_o account_n we_o ought_v to_o make_v of_o that_o other_o reply_n which_o many_o among_o you_o have_v in_o their_o mouth_n when_o a_o man_n study_v to_o set_v before_o their_o eye_n the_o filthiness_n of_o their_o fault_n if_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o you_o have_v abjure_v and_o forswear_a christian_n religion_n and_o receive_v and_o allow_v all_o the_o abomination_n of_o the_o great_a whore_n also_o that_o you_o have_v deny_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o acknowledge_v this_o idol_n of_o antichrist_n put_v he_o as_o it_o be_v in_o his_o place_n you_o will_v say_v that_o you_o do_v it_o not_o with_o your_o heart_n &_o affection_n but_o only_o in_o word_n to_o content_a man_n and_o you_o think_v that_o you_o may_v escape_v by_o this_o goodly_a distinction_n but_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o judge_v you_o after_o your_o subtlety_n &_o sophistry_n which_o shall_v vanish_v away_o like_a smoke_n when_o we_o shall_v appear_v before_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o majesty_n he_o have_v not_o say_v he_o which_o shall_v confess_v i_o with_o the_o heart_n and_o affection_n he_o will_v i_o confess_v before_o my_o father_n in_o heaven_n and_o before_o his_o angel_n &_o he_o which_o shall_v deny_v i_o with_o the_o heart_n he_o will_v i_o also_o deny_v but_o he_o speak_v of_o confess_v and_o acknowledge_v those_o which_o shall_v confess_v he_o before_o man_n and_o of_o reject_v and_o deny_v those_o which_o shall_v have_v deny_v and_o renounce_v he_o before_o man_n and_o what_o be_v it_o to_o confess_v jesus_n christ_n before_o man_n it_o be_v to_o make_v open_a profession_n of_o his_o gospel_n to_o make_v free_a confession_n of_o his_o truth_n yea_o to_o feel_v it_o with_o our_o blood_n if_o need_v be_v after_o the_o example_n of_o this_o cloud_n of_o martyr_n which_o shall_v stand_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o you_o at_o the_o great_a day_n on_o the_o other_o side_n what_o be_v it_o to_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n before_o man_n be_v it_o not_o to_o do_v even_o as_o you_o have_v do_v and_o to_o do_v that_o which_o you_o do_v as_o yet_o daily_a but_o lest_o you_o think_v that_o i_o charge_v you_o to_o sore_o and_o without_o cause_n i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v with_o a_o equal_a and_o quiet_a mind_n what_o this_o curse_a and_o detestable_a abjuration_n which_o you_o have_v make_v import_v the_o which_o i_o can_v read_v without_o a_o inward_a tremble_a especial_o when_o i_o behold_v the_o curse_a and_o miserable_a estate_n of_o so_o many_o silly_a soul_n which_o by_o this_o mean_n be_v catch_v in_o satan_n net_n wherein_o they_o continue_v entangle_v until_o such_o time_n as_o they_o be_v unite_v again_o with_o the_o church_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o admit_v there_o be_v some_o few_o among_o you_o which_o have_v exempt_v themselves_o from_o make_v the_o foresay_a abjuration_n yet_o you_o cease_v not_o to_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v your_o sole_a saviour_n to_o tread_v his_o blood_n under_o your_o foot_n and_o to_o renounce_v the_o merit_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n when_o by_o your_o presence_n &_o assistance_n you_o approve_v that_o abomination_n of_o the_o mass_n which_o be_v the_o seal_n and_o detestable_a sacrament_n of_o this_o abjuration_n and_o renounce_v of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o poison_a heap_n of_o all_o the_o impiety_n of_o popish_a doctrine_n but_o for_o the_o better_a explain_v of_o all_o this_o let_v we_o consider_v the_o thing_n more_o distinctlie_o not_o that_o i_o purpose_n to_o rip_v up_o all_o the_o point_n that_o be_v comprise_v in_o this_o goodly_a form_n of_o confession_n and_o abjuration_n and_o to_o refute_v they_o by_o reason_n and_o plain_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n for_o
