the_o quaker_n good_a advice_n to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n roman_n catholic_n and_o protestant_a dissenter_n you_o say_v it_o be_v no_o matter_n who_o you_o be_v and_o you_o say_v you_o be_v a_o english_a man_n be_v that_o any_o argument_n that_o you_o be_v a_o good_a man_n who_o be_v it_o that_o disturb_v three_o kingdom_n and_o destroy_v the_o best_a of_o prince_n be_v they_o not_o english_a you_o say_v you_o be_v oblige_v to_o this_o country_n and_o the_o law_n have_v make_v you_o free_a but_o it_o be_v a_o clear_a mistake_n for_o you_o be_v in_o bondage_n and_o darkness_n and_o be_v afraid_a of_o the_o light_n and_o therefore_o your_o intention_n be_v evil_a for_o if_o your_o design_n be_v good_a you_o need_v not_o be_v ashamed_a to_o put_v your_o name_n to_o the_o book_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v have_v know_v who_o this_o singular_a friend_n be_v but_o i_o find_v you_o be_v a_o subtle_a adversary_n that_o will_v wound_n we_o and_o none_o shall_v know_v it_o and_o i_o see_v you_o have_v more_o policy_n than_o honesty_n and_o therefore_o your_o consideration_n signify_v nothing_o and_o we_o will_v not_o be_v persuade_v by_o such_o hypocritical_a canter_n as_o you_o be_v for_o you_o quote_v the_o scripture_n for_o your_o own_o end_n as_o the_o devil_n do_v to_o my_o bless_a saviour_n when_o he_o be_v a_o hungry_a as_o to_o command_v the_o stone_n to_o be_v make_v bread_n and_o then_o he_o will_v believe_v he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o christ_n do_v not_o satisfy_v the_o devil_n neither_o i_o hope_v in_o god_n will_v the_o king_n or_o the_o church_n you_o what_o ail_v you_o that_o you_o be_v so_o disturb_v if_o you_o do_v well_o what_o law_n can_v hurt_v you_o but_o i_o find_v you_o be_v a_o great_a thief_n and_o intend_v to_o steal_v and_o therefore_o you_o will_v have_v the_o door_n set_v open_a than_o it_o may_v be_v count_v no_o robbery_n i_o know_v your_o design_n well_o enough_o and_o what_o you_o aim_v at_o and_o though_o you_o may_v deceive_v other_o with_o your_o fair_a pretence_n yet_o i_o hope_v in_o god_n you_o shall_v not_o deceive_v i_o i_o know_v you_o can_v make_v yourself_o like_o a_o angel_n with_o specious_a pretence_n to_o deceive_v the_o innocent_a and_o you_o know_v the_o way_n very_o well_o for_o you_o be_v high_o guilty_a of_o such_o crime_n and_o i_o find_v you_o be_v a_o uncircumcised_a goliath_n for_o i_o have_v find_v you_o a_o deceiver_n for_o you_o tell_v i_o you_o will_v be_v a_o friend_n to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o give_v her_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o fellowship_n but_o yet_o the_o lord_n deliver_v she_o for_o none_o have_v delude_v the_o church_n child_n so_o much_o as_o you_o for_o you_o be_v like_o the_o devil_n to_o tempt_v those_o that_o go_v to_o the_o temple_n but_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o he_o do_v when_o he_o tempt_v my_o bless_a saviour_n and_o say_v unto_o he_o if_o thou_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n cast_v thyself_o down_o for_o it_o be_v write_v he_o shall_v give_v his_o angel_n charge_v concern_v thou_o and_o in_o their_o hand_n they_o shall_v bear_v thou_o up_o lest_o at_o any_o time_n thou_o dash_v thy_o foot_n against_o a_o stone_n see_v what_o sweet_a word_n the_o devil_n can_v use_v for_o his_o own_o purpose_n can_v mr._n penn_n or_o any_o mortal_a outdo_v he_o and_o yet_o satan_n know_v at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o if_o christ_n have_v yield_v he_o can_v not_o have_v be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o it_o will_v have_v destroy_v his_o intention_n for_o if_o he_o have_v yield_v obedience_n to_o he_o how_o can_v he_o have_v conquer_a he_o therefore_o pray_v rest_v content_v and_o let_v the_o church_n of_o england_n alone_o for_o she_o meddle_v with_o none_o of_o you_o first_o but_o till_o you_o provoke_v she_o but_o you_o think_v to_o rend_n and_o tear_v she_o and_o set_v up_o yourselves_o by_o it_o for_o it_o be_v honour_n you_o aim_v at_o and_o that_o be_v the_o principle_n that_o move_v you_o and_o therefore_o as_o you_o say_v you_o regard_v not_o time_n nor_o fashion_n it_o be_v neither_o think_v nor_o talk_v but_o you_o will_v fain_o come_v into_o action_n to_o fling_v down_o the_o penal_a law_n that_o you_o may_v come_v into_o government_n and_o fling_v down_o other_o to_o set_v up_o yourselves_o and_o to_o be_v member_n in_o parliament_n than_o we_o shall_v have_v fine_a do_n but_o i_o hope_v in_o god_n it_o shall_v never_o come_v to_o that_o but_o for_o your_o three_o sort_n of_o people_n that_o will_v find_v themselves_o concern_v in_o this_o question_n you_o say_v the_o church_n of_o england_n the_o roman_a catholic_n and_o the_o protestant_a dissenter_n as_o for_o the_o church_n she_o do_v not_o fear_v the_o penal_a law_n nor_o distrust_v her_o prince_n for_o she_o intend_v to_o do_v no_o ill_a thing_n but_o to_o fear_n god_n and_o honour_n the_o king_n and_o as_o for_o roman_a catholic_n they_o will_v be_v very_o disingenuous_a if_o they_o shall_v doubt_v the_o king_n fidelity_n and_o the_o protestant_a dissenter_n seem_v to_o be_v very_o well_o please_v and_o be_v content_v and_o say_v they_o will_v not_o misimploy_v his_o majesty_n favour_n but_o hope_v they_o shall_v do_v good_a and_o redeem_v the_o time_n that_o be_v past_a and_o indeed_o if_o they_o do_v as_o they_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v very_o much_o their_o friend_n for_o i_o be_o a_o lover_n of_o peace_n and_o unity_n and_o desire_n that_o all_o shall_v do_v well_o and_o you_o may_v assure_v yourself_o they_o will_v never_o be_v for_o the_o abrogate_a of_o the_o test_n for_o it_o be_v they_o of_o their_o own_o nature_n that_o do_v it_o and_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o they_o they_o will_v never_o disannul_v it_o for_o you_o must_v not_o think_v to_o fool_n they_o as_o you_o do_v we_o therefore_o i_o will_v have_v you_o study_v to_o be_v quiet_a and_o do_v not_o deceive_v the_o people_n by_o your_o fair_a pretence_n for_o have_v you_o not_o declare_v to_o the_o world_n that_o you_o be_v a_o innocent_a harmless_a people_n and_o do_v not_o concern_v yourselves_o with_o any_o thing_n of_o government_n more_o or_o less_o but_o i_o find_v you_o to_o be_v great_a liar_n and_o viper_n and_o snake_n that_o will_v destroy_v the_o whole_a and_o what_o have_v you_o to_o do_v with_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o kingdom_n we_o be_v not_o to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o you_o you_o say_v if_o it_o appear_v to_o be_v their_o duty_n principles_n and_o interest_n the_o question_n be_v gain_v ay_o that_o be_v true_a but_o stay_v till_o that_o be_v make_v out_o for_o i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v not_o their_o duty_n principle_n nor_o interest_n and_o therefore_o the_o question_n be_v lose_v and_o you_o yourself_o mistake_v and_o for_o your_o great_a inclination_n to_o serve_v they_o all_o there_o be_v none_o desire_v it_o and_o therefore_o their_o good_a nature_n can_v plead_v your_o excuse_n you_o say_v you_o be_v neither_o move_v by_o hope_n nor_o fear_n private_a loss_n nor_o gain_n but_o who_o shall_v believe_v you_o for_o you_o have_v be_v a_o great_a enemy_n for_o these_o several_a year_n and_o nothing_o will_v content_v you_o but_o our_o ruin._n and_o since_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n can_v content_v you_o without_o take_v away_o the_o test_n and_o the_o penal_a law_n it_o make_v i_o to_o think_v that_o you_o have_v some_o design_n underhand_o more_o than_o the_o world_n know_v of_o therefore_o i_o count_v you_o a_o person_n not_o fit_a to_o be_v trust_v for_o the_o king_n have_v be_v to_o gracious_a that_o he_o have_v give_v liberty_n of_o conscience_n free_o but_o you_o say_v the_o penal_n law_n hinder_v you_o from_o come_v into_o action_n therefore_o the_o law_n must_v be_v take_v away_o to_o humour_n you_o yes_o for_o what_o cause_n that_o the_o king_n shall_v lessen_v himself_o for_o you_o and_o if_o you_o will_v not_o trust_v his_o majesty_n with_o the_o law_n why_o shall_v the_o king_n trust_v you_o without_o they_o if_o you_o do_v well_o there_o be_v no_o law_n can_v hurt_v you_o but_o if_o you_o do_v ill_a why_o shall_v not_o the_o king_n and_o the_o church_n have_v power_n to_o help_v themselves_o for_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v divide_v no_o more_o than_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v from_o his_o wife_n for_o the_o king_n be_v to_o defend_v the_o church_n and_o to_o keep_v all_o in_o peace_n and_o therefore_o you_o be_v mistake_v it_o be_v not_o the_o church_n that_o compel_v you_o but_o it_o be_v the_o civil_a magistrate_n for_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n think_v it_o be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o preserve_v the_o government_n for_o they_o do_v not_o force_v conscience_n when_o his_o majesty_n give_v

liberty_n to_o four_o or_o five_o to_o exercise_n but_o when_o that_o will_v not_o do_v but_o say_v they_o want_v a_o prince_n and_o governor_n who_o they_o can_v trust_v i_o think_v it_o be_v high_a time_n for_o the_o late_a king_n to_o look_v about_o he_o and_o for_o that_o which_o happen_v you_o may_v thank_v yourselves_o for_o you_o have_v be_v the_o sole_a cause_n of_o it_o for_o do_v you_o think_v that_o it_o will_v have_v be_v reasonable_a for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n when_o the_o late_a king_n desire_v her_o assistance_n that_o she_o shall_v have_v refuse_v it_o no_o no_o such_o treachery_n do_v not_o lodge_n in_o her_o breast_n and_o therefore_o she_o need_v not_o repent_v of_o what_o she_o have_v do_v for_o she_o have_v do_v no_o more_o than_o her_o duty_n you_o say_v no_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v deprive_v of_o his_o native_a right_n and_o who_o do_v be_v for_o some_o complain_v that_o the_o government_n ●●y_v too_o heavy_a upon_o they_o but_o it_o be_v you_o that_o refuse_v it_o because_o you_o will_v not_o have_v the_o trouble_v and_o the_o charge_n therefore_o she_o do_v not_o as_o you_o say_v deprive_v you_o of_o any_o station_n in_o government_n and_o you_o can_v condemn_v she_o for_o be_v careful_a for_o you_o yourself_o will_v do_v the_o same_o for_o if_o you_o be_v to_o entertain_v any_o one_o at_o your_o house_n and_o be_v to_o trust_v they_o with_o your_o treasure_n will_v you_o not_o question_v he_o whether_o he_o will_v be_v true_a and_o honest_a and_o if_o he_o shall_v not_o satisfy_v you_o will_v you_o think_v he_o a_o fit_a person_n to_o be_v trust_v and_o why_o shall_v not_o the_o church_n have_v the_o same_o power_n to_o question_v they_o that_o come_v into_o her_o government_n be_v not_o the_o peace_n of_o a_o kingdom_n of_o great_a consequence_n than_o that_o of_o a_o private_a family_n and_o therefore_o do_v not_o complain_v so_o much_o against_o she_o for_o god_n have_v give_v her_o power_n and_o through_o he_o she_o will_v be_v so_o wise_a as_o to_o keep_v it_o for_o have_v not_o god_n re-establish_v she_o by_o a_o miracle_n can_v any_o deny_v but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a providence_n to_o restore_v my_o late_a sovereign_n to_o his_o crown_n and_o dignity_n without_o spill_v of_o blood_n and_o do_v you_o think_v that_o we_o be_v so_o ungrateful_a as_o to_o forget_v such_o wonderful_a deliverance_n no_o no_o it_o be_v our_o resolution_n to_o trust_n god_n with_o all_o thing_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o to_o be_v wheadle_v out_o of_o our_o sense_n by_o quaker_n or_o ranter_n or_o any_o other_o you_o talk_v of_o god_n will_n faith_n conscience_n religion_n christianity_n principle_n of_o love_n the_o evidence_n of_o truth_n with_o its_o light_n which_o silence_v the_o oracle_n of_o the_o heathen_n but_o what_o signify_v these_o good_a word_n when_o it_o be_v to_o bad_a purpose_n and_o as_o for_o the_o power_n of_o the_o despise_a cross_n i_o do_v allow_v that_o you_o shall_v meddle_v with_o that_o for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o wooden_a cross_n that_o christ_n exhort_v his_o disciple_n to_o bear_v for_o he_o can_v not_o carry_v that_o himself_o but_o it_o be_v to_o bear_v such_o evil_a spirit_n as_o you_o with_o patience_n that_o despises_n he_o and_o count_v wholesome_a counsel_n madness_n and_o impute_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o the_o devil_n and_o to_o call_v his_o bless_a spouse_n the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n and_o his_o saint_n anti-christians_a and_o when_o christ_n say_v use_v all_o thing_n as_o if_o you_o use_v they_o not_o you_o contradict_v it_o and_o make_v as_o if_o the_o creature_n be_v damn_a if_o they_o go_v in_o gay_a clothing_n when_o god_n know_v you_o be_v proud_a in_o your_o plain_a dress_n than_o some_o be_v in_o their_o silk_n and_o satoin_n o_o you_o hippocritical_a devil_n that_o strain_n at_o a_o knat_n and_o swallow_v a_o camel._n you_o know_v christ_n have_v command_v his_o disciple_n to_o baptise_v as_o well_o as_o well_o as_o teach_v and_o he_o leave_v his_o bless_a sacrament_n to_o be_v administer_v in_o remembrance_n of_o his_o death_n but_o how_o presumptuous_o do_v you_o disdain_v both_o therefore_o i_o can_v count_v you_o real_a christian_n as_o long_o as_o you_o do_v so_o but_o that_o you_o be_v delude_v by_o lucifer_n for_o you_o show_v his_o pride_n to_o the_o world_n and_o you_o think_v none_o walk_v by_o the_o spirit_n but_o you_o and_o i_o believe_v he_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n therefore_o the_o heaven_n can_v not_o contain_v he_o and_o where_o will_v you_o be_v hurry_v when_o god_n be_v angry_a i_o pity_v your_o condition_n i_o desire_v you_o to_o beg_v of_o god_n to_o give_v you_o humility_n and_o repentance_n that_o you_o may_v mend_v for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v not_o delight_n in_o the_o destruction_n of_o her_o enemy_n but_o desire_n that_o all_o may_v be_v convince_v and_o convert_v that_o they_o may_v be_v happy_a which_o bespeak_v she_o to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n for_o christ_n church_n must_v have_v his_o nature_n or_o else_o she_o can_v be_v his_o you_o say_v christ_n settle_v not_o his_o religion_n in_o worldly_a empire_n pray_v where_o be_v it_o then_o or_o what_o do_v he_o come_v from_o heaven_n for_o be_v it_o not_o to_o save_o his_o church_n that_o be_v almost_o lose_v and_o to_o plant_v his_o religion_n in_o the_o world_n and_o to_o restore_v man_n to_o that_o felicity_n he_o have_v lose_v and_o to_o reveal_v such_o secret_n that_o have_v be_v hide_v from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n and_o to_o adopt_v we_o to_o cry_v abba_n father_n so_o i_o find_v it_o be_v christ_n intention_n that_o god_n shall_v be_v all_o in_o all_o and_o when_o christ_n depart_v this_o world_n he_o do_v not_o leave_v his_o church_n destitute_a but_o send_v his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o subdue_v her_o enemy_n by_o who_o power_n kingdom_n be_v convert_v and_o for_o the_o building_n of_o his_o church_n he_o choose_v plain_a and_o honest_a man_n that_o have_v so_o much_o of_o the_o innocency_n of_o the_o dove_n that_o they_o want_v a_o little_a of_o the_o subtleness_n of_o the_o

the_o subtleness_n of_o the_o serpent_n than_o the_o innocency_n of_o the_o dove_n therefore_o you_o be_v not_o qualify_v for_o a_o disciple_n you_o speak_v of_o st._n john_n love_n and_o christ_n obedience_n to_o his_o father_n will_n but_o what_o signify_v that_o to_o you_o when_o you_o be_v fill_v full_a of_o anger-and_a mischief_n and_o be_v disobedient_a and_o rebellious_a indeed_o i_o
