such_o that_o upon_o the_o proof_n of_o they_o the_o demurrer_n will_v hardly_o adventure_v a_o small_a sum_n of_o money_n though_o he_o thus_o easy_o adventure_v his_o soul_n and_o yet_o he_o say_v he_o see_v and_o because_o he_o say_v so_o his_o sin_n remain_v for_o a_o untruth_n be_v never_o true_o see_v and_o without_o restitution_n and_o reparation_n he_o can_v expect_v his_o sin_n shall_v be_v take_v from_o he_o he_o say_v he_o sees_z that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a snare_n to_o be_v possess_v of_o great_a estate_n by_o that_o power_n which_o can_v divest_v they_o if_o they_o assist_v

uncharitableness_n even_o a_o contrariety_n to_o that_o charity_n which_o think_v none_o evil_a this_o 13._o 1_o cor._n 13._o be_v all_o because_o the_o author_n will_v not_o comply_v with_o this_o

he_o not_o accuse_v calvin_n and_o bucer_n and_o paraeus_n and_o gualther_n and_o peter_n martyr_n for_o maintain_v a_o bad_a cause_n and_o do_v it_o for_o a_o place_n of_o profit_n as_o for_o any_o design_n the_o whole_a life_n of_o the_o author_n show_v he_o very_o clear_a of_o design_n and_o for_o this_o be_v it_o what_o design_v it_o will_v be_v he_o be_v no_o actor_n in_o it_o but_o a_o

believe_v that_o he_o may_v exercise_v it_o in_o just_a thing_n yea_o he_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n though_o the_o government_n have_v be_v take_v by_o design_n and_o force_n that_o

do_v i_o think_v it_o go_v beyond_o the_o skill_n of_o this_o demurrer_n just_o to_o charge_v that_o which_o be_v good_a with_o sin_n and_o gild_n sure_o it_o be_v that_o he_o have_v the_o council_n

other_o but_o of_o this_o more_o in_o the_o conclusion_n and_o now_o because_o his_o matter_n be_v weak_a therefore_o his_o chief_a strength_n be_v lay_v upon_o scandalize_a the_o author_n and_o so_o his_o best_a argument_n be_v his_o own_o uncharitableness_n i_o be_o therefore_o the_o large_a in_o this_o point_n to_o make_v a_o plaster_n proportionable_a to_o the_o large_a poison_n of_o this_o
