not_o to_o mince_v the_o word_n at_o the_o command_n of_o reason_n which_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n indeed_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n but_o i_o believe_v it_o be_v on_o earth_n too_o at_o the_o eucharist_n nothing_o but_o reason_n gainsays_a and_o she_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v to_o judge_v in_o the_o case_n what_o can_v a_o man_n that_o go_v on_o this_o principle_n reply_n to_o the_o so_o much_o condemn_v idolater_n out_o of_o his_o own_o mouth_n he_o be_v confute_v he_o lay_v down_o the_o doctrine_n and_o the_o other_o make_v the_o natural_a and_o genuine_a use_n those_o therefore_o which_o hold_v this_o principle_n can_v judge_v the_o action_n of_o the_o papist_n in_o adore_v the_o bread_n to_o be_v idolatrous_a without_o self-contradiction_n and_o if_o they_o will_v act_v according_a to_o their_o light_n this_o second_o reason_n signify_v nothing_o to_o they_o though_o it_o may_v to_o other_o i_o can_v conclude_v my_o note_n on_o their_o second_o reason_n without_o reflect_v upon_o another_o extract_v from_o the_o same_o topick_n and_o by_o what_o they_o have_v say_v upon_o this_o reason_n render_v more_o creditable_a to_o the_o unwary_a and_o half_a observe_v reader_n for_o they_o have_v sprinkle_v in_o several_a page_n of_o their_o book_n many_o shrewd_a hint_n as_o if_o the_o

not_o the_o way_n to_o protect_v it_o but_o to_o betray_v it_o we_o see_v late_o that_o the_o statesman_n which_o be_v most_o zealous_a for_o the_o good_a old_a cause_n lose_v it_o and_o the_o king_n have_v not_o better_a friend_n than_o his_o most_o implacable_a enemy_n fury_n be_v as_o bad_a in_o a_o champion_n as_o torpour_n it_o be_v a_o even_a temperature_n of_o wisdom_n and_o valour_n

against_o popery_n which_o be_v find_v among_o the_o nonconformist_n be_v like_o that_o of_o one_o frantic_a who_o wound_v himself_o while_o he_o will_v strike_v his_o foe_n they_o be_v mad_a against_o popery_n but_o they_o can_v tell_v why_o they_o can_v confute_v it_o without_o condemn_v themselves_o as_o i_o can_v prove_v in_o many_o instance_n this_o unguided_a zeal_n will_v be_v sure_a to_o run_v far_o enough_o from_o popery_n and_o so_o run_v into_o it_o as_o he_o that_o sail_v round_o the_o globe_n the_o further_o he_o go_v after_o he_o be_v half_a way_n the_o near_o he_o

unfeigned_o i_o never_o hear_v of_o one_o that_o of_o late_a year_n be_v win_v by_o any_o nonconformist_a except_v by_o mr._n baxter_n and_o i_o believe_v he_o will_v have_v be_v as_o unsuccessful_a as_o other_o but_o that_o he_o go_v upon_o more_o moderate_a principle_n i_o think_v the_o example_n of_o doctor_n cousin_n now_o bishop_n of_o durham_n once_o most_o suspect_v of_o popery_n for_o his_o zeal_n for_o the_o liturgy_n and_o yet_o exercise_v asleep_o no_o less_o courageous_a than_o considerate_a zeal_n against_o popery_n in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o exile_n methinks_v i_o say_v

the_o conformist_n come_v near_o to_o the_o papist_n then_o other_o but_o it_o be_v as_o soldier_n make_v their_o approach_n to_o the_o enemy_n to_o fight_v with_o he_o and_o be_v therefore_o many_o
