be_v as_o you_o master_n copinger_n for_o those_o i_o assure_v you_o be_v my_o word_n unto_o he_o i_o will_v rather_o suspect_v this_o that_o you_o speak_v of_o to_o be_v some_o mere_a illusion_n of_o the_o devil_n than_o any_o sound_n revelation_n from_o god_n etc._n etc._n well_o say_v he_o master_n throk_n strike_v his_o hand_n upon_o the_o desk_n that_o be_v by_o i_o what_o so_o ever_o you_o and_o other_o do_v think_v of_o the_o strangeness_n and_o impossibility_n hereof_o i_o be_o out_o of_o doubt_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v more_o than_o once_o or_o twice_o and_o that_o after_o many_o conflict_n agony_n and_o trial_n assure_v thereof_o even_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n himself_o from_o heaven_n and_o that_o the_o lord_n himself_o have_v appoint_v i_o for_o some_o special_a work_n of_o he_o to_o his_o glory_n in_o which_o speech_n of_o his_o i_n think_v i_o see_v some_o wild_a and_o strange_a cast_n of_o his_o countenance_n now_o when_o he_o see_v that_o after_o all_o these_o his_o persuasion_n protestation_n and_o fearful_a imprecation_n he_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n fasten_v upon_o i_o any_o like_n of_o these_o his_o extraordinary_a revelation_n though_o he_o often_o allege_v master_n knox_n and_o some_o other_o unto_o i_o he_o grow_v in_o the_o end_n to_o this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o work_n to_o be_v do_v for_o the_o church_n which_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o have_v wrought_v by_o such_o man_n of_o great_a gift_n as_o master_n egerton_n master_n cart._n and_o myself_o be_v for_o so_o it_o please_v he_o to_o couple_v we_o together_o but_o this_o must_v be_v effect_v forsooth_o by_o man_n of_o base_a account_n of_o no_o gift_n &_o such_o as_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o very_a abject_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o ever_o say_v he_o the_o lord_n woork_v the_o great_a work_v by_o the_o weak_a instrument_n and_o hereupon_o it_o be_v that_o he_o begin_v to_o commend_v and_o extol_v this_o hacket_n unto_o i_o as_o a_o very_a rare_a &_o notable_a

but_o be_v wonderful_o alter_v and_o come_v home_o a_o man_n that_o will_v not_o stick_v in_o all_o humility_n to_o acknowledge_v the_o sin_n of_o his_o former_a life_n with_o detestation_n and_o be_v now_o become_v a_o convert_n forsooth_o and_o a_o diligent_a hearer_n of_o the_o word_n to_o this_o effect_n i_o assure_v you_o and_o with_o many_o more_o word_n than_o i_o can_v well_o utter_v do_v he_o blaze_v out_o the_o praise_n of_o this_o new_a prophet_n of_o he_o and_o then_o see_v some_o other_o come_v up_o to_o i_o about_o business_n he_o snatch_v up_o his_o paper_n and_o thrust_v they_o into_o his_o bosom_n he_o take_v his_o leave_n for_o that_o time_n but_o you_o must_v understande_v madam_n that_o before_o this_o conference_n of_o we_o he_o write_v unto_o i_o and_o find_v belike_o that_o my_o answer_n be_v not_o to_o his_o satisfaction_n he_o find_v this_o mean_n to_o steal_v upon_o i_o as_o i_o have_v describe_v his_o letter_n be_v to_o the_o very_a same_o effect_n as_o his_o speech_n be_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o hope_v to_o live_v to_o do_v some_o service_n to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n that_o what_o so_o ever_o persuasion_n man_n use_v unto_o he_o to_o desist_v and_o

curtail_v it_o clip_v it_o interline_v it_o and_o transform_v it_o i_o do_v not_o fear_v the_o view_n of_o that_o letter_n to_o be_v present_v at_o any_o time_n before_o the_o lord_n and_o myself_o to_o be_v censure_v and_o punish_v as_o they_o in_o their_o wisdom_n shall_v think_v my_o oversight_n that_o way_n to_o deserve_v for_o unless_o i_o great_o deceyve_v myself_o the_o very_a shreade_v

notwithstanding_o if_o they_o be_v right_o weigh_v sufficienlie_o clear_v i_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o all_o unpartial_a and_o indifferent_a mind_a man_n and_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v they_o know_v that_o the_o whole_a letter_n will_v have_v clear_v the_o suspicion_n much_o more_o therefore_o utter_o to_o suppress_v that_o which_o will_v clear_v a_o puritan_n most_o be_v for_o they_o the_o wise_a though_o peradventure_o not_o the_o conscionabl_a course_n it_o may_v be_v and_o it_o be_v like_a enough_o if_o they_o have_v all_o his_o paper_n that_o they_o have_v also_o another_o short_a letter_n of_o i_o in_o answer_n to_o another_o of_o master_n copinger_n who_o write_v unto_o i_o thus_o dear_a brother_n i_o hope_v ere_o it_o be_v long_o you_o shall_v see_v a_o alteration_n i_o answer_v he_o

it_o may_v please_v you_o a_o little_a to_o consider_v with_o i_o of_o these_o few_o particular_n ensue_v first_o whereas_o master_n copinger_n in_o his_o letter_n seem_v to_o be_v sorry_a that_o i_o

whereas_o the_o whole_a drift_n and_o scope_n of_o my_o letter_n be_v a_o mere_a dissuasion_n of_o master_n copinger_n to_o go_v on_o with_o any_o sole_a or_o singular_a course_n of_o his_o own_o
