with_o a_o elder_a there_o and_o desire_v he_o to_o ask_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o in_o their_o hear_n and_o they_o hear_v she_o tell_v he_o that_o she_o never_o say_v so_o to_o he_o for_o all_o this_o the_o elder_n bear_v a_o prejudice_n against_o i_o willing_o smother_a his_o lie_n bring_v it_o not_o to_o the_o congregation_n i_o be_v acquaint_v with_o it_o by_o one_o of_o those_o that_o hear_v she_o tell_v the_o business_n yet_o remain_v silent_a many_o week_n and_o know_v it_o to_o be_v their_o duty_n to_o endeavour_v to_o find_v out_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o matter_n or_o he_o to_o declare_v it_o and_o not_o to_o let_v his_o brother_n lie_v under_o sin_n but_o he_o partial_o willing_o neglect_v the_o matter_n as_o do_v the_o rest_n of_o they_o at_o last_o be_v weary_a of_o their_o partial_a babylonish_a carriage_n i_o plain_o tell_v they_o they_o be_v partial_a concerning_o i_o in_o not_o clear_v i_o and_o admonish_v my_o accuser_n when_o especial_o one_o of_o the_o

negligent_a in_o not_o bring_v my_o guilty_a accuser_n to_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o wrong_n he_o do_v i_o he_o answer_v he_o have_v not_o be_v with_o the_o congregation_n many_o week_n before_o which_o i_o prove_v false_a to_o his_o face_n before_o they_o all_o yet_o they_o do_v not_o blame_v he_o for_o that_o neglect_n but_o they_o to_o please_v he_o and_o their_o proud_a flesh_n will_v

make_v it_o appear_v to_o many_o of_o the_o say_a congregation_n and_o those_o who_o i_o chief_o accuse_v be_v judge_n in_o their_o own_o cause_n i_o do_v beseech_v they_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o they_o will_v admit_v my_o trial_n of_o charge_v they_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o some_o other_o congregation_n and_o that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v judge_v and_o

three_o of_o some_o other_o congregation_n and_o they_o to_o choose_v who_o they_o please_v although_o it_o be_v the_o head_n of_o those_o i_o accuse_v but_o this_o reasonable_a request_n of_o i_o will_v not_o be_v grant_v but_o they_o reply_v they_o will_v make_v use_n of_o their_o power_n themselves_o and_o deal_v with_o i_o and_o not_o give_v way_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o other_o which_o power_n whence_o they_o have_v it_o from_o heaven_n or_o hell_n i_o know_v not_o well_o but_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o other_o i_o beseech_v you_o christian_a friend_n consider_v whether_o ever_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n hear_v of_o that_o a_o man_n must_v be_v judge_v and_o condemn_v by_o those_o who_o he_o just_o accuse_v be_v it_o ever_o hear_v in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n and_o if_o this_o be_v canonical_a scripture_n church-order_n root_n out_o the_o covenant_n of_o separation_n and_o expound_v i_o old_a jesus_n the_o son_n of_o sirach_n apocrypha_n in_o his_o 13_o chap._n as_o follow_v if_o a_o rich_a man_n fall_v into_o a_o error_n he_o have_v many_o helper_n he_o speak_v proud_a word_n and_o yet_o man_n justify_v he_o but_o if_o a_o poor_a man_n go_v wrong_a he_o be_v punish_v yoa_o though_o he_o speak_v wise_o yet'can_v it_o have_v no_o place_n when_o the_o rich_a man_n speak_v every_o man_n hold_v his_o tongue_n and_o look_v what_o he_o say_v they_o praise_v it_o unto_o the_o cloud_n but_o if_o the_o poor_a man_n speak_v they_o say_v what_o fellow_n be_v this_o and_o if_o he_o do_v amiss_o they_o shall_v destroy_v he_o riches_n be_v good_a unto_o he_o that_o have_v no_o sin_n in_o his_o conscience_n and_o poverty_n be_v a_o wicked_a thing_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o ungodly_a see_v by_o sad_a experience_n towards_o myself_o and_o other_o i_o can_v discover_v their_o partial_a deal_n to_o parallel_v or_o real_o fulfil_v these_o scripture_n to_o be_v a_o true_a prophecy_n concerning_o themselves_o and_o many_o other_o in_o these_o time_n as_o well_o as_o former_o therefore_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v excuse_v for_o quote_v they_o for_o because_o when_o the_o say_a bishop_n or_o elder_n who_o i_o chief_o accuse_v declare_v he_o will_v lay_v down_o his_o office_n in_o case_n they_o cast_v i_o not_o out_o they_o tell_v he_o he_o speak_v rash_o and_o that_o he_o must_v be_v humble_v for_o it_o but_o after_o i_o inform_v they_o of_o it_o and_o charge_v they_o with_o wilful_a partiality_n in_o the_o act_n they_o not_o before_o reprove_v he_o and_o there_o in_o the_o audience_n of_o the_o people_n he_o say_v he_o will_v never_o be_v sorry_a for_o his_o wilful_a rash_a speech_n which_o thing_n be_v smother_v by_o they_o and_o he_o justify_v which_o when_o i_o see_v they_o walk_v not_o upright_o and_o they_o hate_v reproof_n from_o i_o and_o become_v persecute_v enemy_n to_o i_o for_o tell_v of_o they_o the_o truth_n so_o perceive_v their_o intent_n to_o root_v i_o out_o though_o they_o can_v bring_v nothing_o for_o matter_n of_o fact_n against_o my_o person_n but_o their_o will_n their_o law_n to_o proceed_v against_o i_o be_v void_a of_o hope_n after_o a_o long_a time_n forbear_v this_o unjust_a carriage_n and_o know_v their_o speedy_a intention_n i_o take_v a_o occasion_n to_o discharge_v my_o conscience_n to_o show_v they_o in_o a_o

i_o to_o who_o i_o reply_v my_o message_n be_v the_o mind_n and_o will_n of_o god_n and_o i_o will_v declare_v it_o which_o when_o he_o see_v he_o strive_v to_o cause_v the_o people_n to_o withdraw_v but_o they_o stand_v not_o in_o so_o much_o in_o awe_n of_o he_o but_o when_o he_o see_v they_o follow_v he_o not_o he_o stand_v to_o hear_v what_o fall_v to_o his_o lot_n but_o patience_n from_o
