remark_n upon_o a_o advertisement_n of_o a_o meeting_n at_o turners-hall_n he_o that_o be_v first_o in_o his_o own_o cause_n seem_v just_a but_o his_o neighbour_n come_v and_o search_v he_o prov._n 18.17_o the_o foolishness_n of_o man_n pervert_v his_o way_n and_o his_o heart_n fret_v against_o the_o lord_n prov._n 19.3_o have_v see_v a_o advertisement_n subscribe_v g._n k._n relate_v to_o a_o

a_o man_n of_o learning_n and_o distinction_n and_o therein_o i_o observe_v these_o thing_n first_o that_o it_o principal_o relate_v to_o some_o thing_n already_o express_v in_o public_a print_n second_o to_o four_o man_n express_v by_o name_n viz._n william_n penn_n george_n whitehead_n thomas_n ellwood_n john_n pennington_n three_o to_o a_o meet_v call_v the_o second_o day_n morning-meeting_a for_o limitation_n he_o preicribe_v countenance_v some_o book_n particular_o one_o from_o pensilvania_n call_v a_o modes●●_n account_v of_o the_o principal_a difference_n in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v chief_o as_o i_o perceive_v by_o view_n thereof_o a_o collection_n out_o of_o former_a book_n of_o g._n k_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o other_o part_n of_o this_o advertisement_n be_v to_o give_v account_n of_o the_o cause_n to_o intimate_v such_o a_o meeting_n and_o one_o cause_n assign_v be_v that_o he_o have_v neither_o time_n nor_o ability_n to_o print_v answer_n and_o another_o that_o a_o meeting_n of_o people_n have_v own_v he_o in_o their_o print_a testimony_n call_v a_o seasonable_a testimony_n which_o therefore_o he_o account_v be_v parallel_v with_o what_o the_o quaker_n do_v some_o year_n ago_o against_o tho._n hicks_n and_o much_o of_o the_o other_o part_n be_v invective_n and_o black_a epithet_n he_o bring_v forth_o and_o cast_v upon_o the_o say_a person_n all_o which_o i_o must_v need_v say_v fall_v great_o short_a in_o my_o opinion_n of_o render_v the_o say_v g._n k._n a_o person_n just_o merit_v the_o character_n of_o a_o man_n of_o learning_n and_o distinction_n or_o wisdom_n or_o justice_n for_o have_v he_o be_v such_o a_o one_o so_o much_o folly_n pride_n and_o conceitedness_n will_v never_o have_v drop_v from_o his_o pen._n he_o folly_n one_a in_o propose_v a_o meeting_n under_o the_o restriction_n and_o limitation_n he_o prescribe_v without_o throng_n or_o crowd_n when_o he_o give_v a_o month_n public_a notice_n in_o print_n of_o time_n and_o place_n in_o this_o populous_a city_n two_o in_o desire_v they_o to_o be_v there_o to_o hear_v themselves_o charge_v and_o prove_v guilty_a of_o the_o follow_a thing_n when_o he_o have_v already_o charge_v they_o to_o be_v guilty_a and_o that_o in_o public_a print_n of_o defamation_n etc._n etc._n and_o most_o erroneous_a and_o hurtful_a principle_n to_o the_o great_a shame_n and_o scandal_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n but_o he_o pretend_v a_o justness_n in_o desire_v they_o to_o be_v there_o to_o hear_v themselves_o prove_v guilty_a by_o which_o he_o show_v he_o have_v not_o yet_o be_v so_o just_a as_o now_o he_o will_v seem_v to_o be_v but_o so_o far_o as_o his_o charge_n will_v go_v towards_o proof_n he_o be_v not_o want_v to_o do_v it_o and_o that_o in_o print_n before_o such_o hear_n will_v ever_o a_o scholar_n or_o wise_a man_n manifest_v such_o folly_n thus_o to_o expose_v the_o say_v person_n without_o hear_v or_o be_v just_o desire_v to_o be_v present_a to_o answer_v to_o their_o several_a charge_n be_v not_o this_o like_a abbington_n law_n viz._n condemn_v first_o and_o try_v after_o and_o contrary_a to_o the_o wise_a man_n saying_n viz._n blame_v not_o before_o thou_o have_v examine_v the_o matter_n first_o understand_v and_o then_o rebuke_v and_o below_o felix_n his_o say_n of_o paul_n i_o will_v hear_v thou_o and_o thy_o accuser_n when_o they_o come_v face_n to_o face_n three_o the_o pride_n and_o conceitedness_n of_o this_o man_n to_o i_o great_o appear_v in_o his_o take_n upon_o he_o so_o peremptory_o in_o public_a print_n to_o summons_n so_o many_o person_n to_o attend_v he_o at_o time_n and_o place_n he_o set_v and_o appoint_v ought_v not_o they_o to_o be_v consult_v with_o about_o such_o a_o meeting_n and_o inquire_v of_o whether_o they_o will_v consent_v thereto_o and_o agree_v to_o time_n and_o place_n be_v it_o not_o so_o with_o the_o baptist_n and_o the_o quaker_n former_o if_o not_o i_o think_v it_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v so_o but_o for_o this_o man_n that_o without_o so_o do_v appoint_v time_n and_o place_n and_o summons_n and_o moreover_o suggest_v that_o if_o few_o or_o none_o of_o they_o be_v present_a that_o it_o be_v from_o a_o be_v conscious_a to_o themselves_o of_o the_o badness_n of_o the_o cause_n this_o make_v i_o think_v of_o the_o proverb_n hasty_a folk_n never_o want_v wo._n why_o so_o hasty_a to_o conclude_v they_o be_v conscious_a of_o the_o badness_n of_o their_o cause_n before_o they_o be_v hear_v beside_o be_v there_o not_o many_o justifiable_a or_o allowable_a reason_n to_o induce_v they_o to_o the_o contrary_a or_o occasion_n to_o excuse_v they_o therefore_o why_o shall_v this_o man_n of_o all_o other_o be_v so_o hasty_a to_o condemn_v they_o altogether_o unheard_a for_o instance_n if_o these_o man_n with_o regard_n to_o the_o preservation_n of_o peace_n and_o prevent_v such_o disorder_n and_o riotous_a action_n that_o may_v be_v commit_v at_o such_o assembly_n shall_v rather_o choose_v to_o content_v themselves_o with_o such_o a_o vindication_n that_o may_v be_v more_o peaceable_o and_o inoffensive_o manage_v must_v there_o be_v no_o less_o than_o a_o consciousness_n of_o gild_n to_o be_v present_o conclude_v on_o their_o side_n without_o hear_v and_o peruse_v their_o answer_n already_o in_o print_n for_o will_v not_o such_o that_o impartial_o examine_v what_o both_o write_v be_v a_o fit_a judge_n than_o this_o man_n in_o his_o own_o case_n who_o accuse_v summons_n and_o pass_v sentence_n upon_o his_o own_o authority_n and_o without_o hear_v for_o the_o time_n he_o have_v appoint_v for_o that_o be_v not_o yet_o come_v but_o the_o proverb_n be_v curse_v cow_n have_v short_a horn_n but_o true_o after_o all_o it_o be_v my_o advice_n both_o to_o this_o man_n and_o the_o quaker_n to_o make_v better_a use_n of_o the_o present_a privilege_n and_o liberty_n they_o enjoy_v from_o the_o government_n than_o to_o incur_v their_o displeasure_n and_o expose_v themselves_o to_o the_o rage_n and_o fury_n of_o a_o mix_a multitude_n to_o the_o endanger_v the_o breach_n of_o the_o public_a peace_n and_o thereby_o give_v a_o just_a occasion_n of_o offence_n to_o the_o magistrate_n which_o though_o it_o may_v not_o be_v by_o they_o immediate_o yet_o may_v occasional_o and_o may_v tend_v to_o the_o great_a shame_n of_o their_o profession_n and_o scandal_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n and_o if_o the_o people_n g._n k._n be_v join_v with_o be_v so_o few_o so_o poor_a or_o so_o niggardly_a as_o they_o will_v not_o be_v at_o a_o little_a charge_n in_o print_v book_n relate_v to_o their_o religious_a controversy_n in_o matter_n of_o faith_n they_o will_v show_v less_o zeal_n to_o the_o cause_n than_o those_o g._n k._n write_v against_o and_o account_n in_o error_n and_o his_o friend_n thereby_o give_v but_o little_a demonstration_n of_o their_o love_n to_o he_o or_o of_o their_o own_v he_o except_o in_o word_n and_o although_o i_o have_v make_v some_o remark_n on_o the_o method_n propose_v by_o g._n k._n to_o show_v his_o folly_n therein_o and_o also_o his_o presumption_n as_o it_o appear_v to_o i_o in_o his_o conclude_v other_o to_o be_v what_o he_o think_v and_o say_v they_o be_v without_o or_o before_o hear_v for_o that_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v as_o if_o
