which_o three_o man_n one_o after_o another_o as_o if_o all_o have_v one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n have_v draw_v from_o premise_n of_o their_o own_o deducible_a neither_o from_o scripture_n nor_o

plead_v for_o such_o a_o religion_n they_o plead_v for_o a_o toleration_n of_o that_o religion_n or_o way_n of_o worship_n which_o they_o be_v persuade_v in_o their_o soul_n drawes-nee_a to_o god_n and_o for_o toleration_n of_o these_o man_n among_o we_o who_o have_v ever_o live_v peaceable_o with_o we_o have_v speak_v good_a thing_n for_o we_o before_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n who_o doctrine_n have_v come-up_a full_o to_o the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n and_o their_o conversation_n also_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n now_o god_n forbid_v that_o any_o rough-hand_n shall_v be_v putforth_a against_o these_o man_n yea_o god_n forgive_v our_o hard_a word_n and_o unchristian_a thought_n that_o way_n a._n but_o sure_o many_o who_o we_o call_v and_o they_o call_v themselves_o independent_a do_v think_v themselves_o exempt_a from_o all_o law_n except_o that_o law_n which_o rule_v in_o their_o member_n and_o think_v as_o the_o nimrods_n and_o giant_n of_o the_o world_n do_v think_v themselves_o accountable_a for_o their_o action_n to_o none_o but_o god_n b._n it_o be_v well_o if_o they_o can_v bethink_v themselves_o serious_o that_o they_o be_v accountable_a to_o god_n but_o so_o they_o do_v not_o think_v but_o this_o i_o know_v that_o many_o walk_v disorderly_a loose_a from_o their_o god_n the_o gospel_n and_o way_n of_o his_o worship_n but_o if_o there_o be_v any_o who_o understand_v independency_n so_o let_v they_o be_v as_o odious_a and_o abominable_a in_o man_n eye_n as_o the_o giant_n and_o nimrods_n of_o the_o world_n mighty_a hunter_n before_o the_o lord_n
