upon_o gospel-rule_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o walk_v by_o or_o call_v any_o man_n to_o a_o account_n for_o any_o thing_n but_o what_o be_v real_o prejudicial_a to_o his_o neighbour_n in_o his_o

one_o to_o show_v i_o a_o text_n in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o such_o a_o practice_n if_o they_o can_v and_o yet_o will_v practise_v it_o do_v they_o not_o condemn_v the_o new_a testament_n of_o imperfection_n in_o matter_n of_o rule_n or_o else_o usurp_v this_o authority_n because_o they_o will_v and_o have_v no_o other_o reason_n but_o their_o will_n for_o it_o but_o to_o the_o second_o suppose_v such_o a_o thing_n yet_o i_o be_o not_o convince_v by_o any_o thing_n i_o ever_o hear_v or_o read_v that_o he_o have_v right_a to_o assume_v this_o power_n if_o fire_n and_o faggot_n be_v a_o argument_n or_o the_o destrove_n of_o man_n in_o prison_n what_o do_v they_o less_o than_o justify_v all_o the_o persecution_n that_o ever_o be_v make_v upon_o the_o saint_n if_o this_o gentleman_n can_v but_o demonstrate_v to_o i_o his_o infallibility_n i_o shall_v be_v much_o stagger_v nay_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o this_o that_o they_o dare_v not_o say_v so_o much_o and_o if_o so_o what_o be_v it_o but_o the_o beg_n of_o the_o question_n i_o wish_v they_o will_v remember_v that_o say_n of_o god_n he_o that_o touch_v you_o touch_v the_o apple_n of_o my_o eye_n and_o consider_v whether_o that_o prophecy_n in_o the_o gospel_n may_v not_o concern_v they_o the_o day_n shall_v come_v when_o they_o shall_v put_v you_o to_o death_n and_o think_v they_o do_v god_n good_a service_n and_o for_o that_o argument_n they_o that_o have_v the_o power_n may_v do_v it_o and_o the_o majority_n of_o voice_n ought_v to_o carry_v all_o matter_n i_o shall_v answer_v it_o
