a_o letter_n unto_o a_o person_n of_o honour_n &_o quality_n contain_v some_o animadversion_n upon_o the_o bishop_n of_o worcester_n letter_n london_n print_v in_o the_o year_n 1662._o honourable_a and_o worthy_a sir_n i_o be_o to_o thank_v you_o for_o the_o last_o piece_n of_o divertisement_n you_o give_v i_o in_o send_v the_o bishop_n of_o worcester_n letter_n and_o i_o wish_v you_o will_v have_v let_v i_o enjoy_v the_o satisfaction_n i_o take_v in_o read_v it_o without_o oblige_v i_o to_o give_v you_o my_o sense_n upon_o it_o for_o beside_o my_o unwillingness_n to_o meddle_v in_o a_o personal_a quarrel_n it_o will_v not_o i_o think_v be_v very_o safe_a for_o any_o to_o engage_v against_o so_o angry_a a_o adversary_n which_o i_o shall_v be_v think_v to_o do_v though_o i_o resolve_v to_o speak_v nothing_o but_o truth_n in_o the_o character_n i_o intend_v to_o give_v of_o he_o and_o it_o be_v brief_o this_o that_o in_o few_o leave_v i_o never_o yet_o read_v more_o passion_n which_o be_v so_o very_o predominant_a that_o his_o disorderly_a &_o abrupt_a stile_n do_v altogether_o partake_v of_o it_o so_o that_o the_o bishop_n best_a way_n will_v be_v to_o get_v his_o heat_n mistake_v for_o zeal_n for_o else_o it_o may_v just_o be_v account_v something_o that_o have_v a_o worse_a name_n and_o which_o in_o the_o dog-day_n will_v be_v very_o dangerous_a this_o be_v sir_n my_o judgement_n upon_o the_o whole_a letter_n you_o may_v well_o expect_v that_o i_o shall_v make_v it_o good_a by_o a_o induction_n from_o particular_a instance_n but_o before_o i_o do_v this_o i_o must_v deal_v impartial_o and_o assure_v you_o that_o as_o to_o the_o main_a controversy_n i_o think_v the_o bishop_n have_v much_o the_o better_a of_o mr._n baxter_n for_o if_o the_o question_n between_o they_o be_v as_o dr._n gunning_n and_o dr._n pearson_n do_v attest_v such_o a_o command_n be_v so_o evident_o lawful_a that_o i_o shall_v much_o wonder_n if_o mr._n baxter_n do_v ever_o dispute_v it_o and_o till_o he_o do_v clear_o disprove_v that_o that_o be_v not_o the_o thing_n in_o question_n i_o must_v needs_o think_v that_o he_o have_v much_o forget_v himself_o in_o make_v a_o imperfect_a and_o partial_a relation_n set_v therefore_o aside_o the_o business_n of_o that_o particular_a contest_v wherein_o you_o see_v how_o much_o i_o be_o incline_v to_o favour_v the_o b●shop_n there_o be_v other_o thing_n in_o his_o letter_n of_o general_a concernment_n which_o i_o think_v liable_a to_o just_a exception_n as_o first_o that_o he_o suppose_v there_o be_v so_o strict_a a_o union_n and_o so_o inseparable_a a_o dependence_n between_o king_n and_o bishop_n that_o they_o must_v stand_v and_o fall_v together_o and_o all_o who_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o one_o must_v needs_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o other_o i_o know_v very_o well_o this_o axiom_n be_v much_o talk_v of_o and_o some_o advantage_n may_v be_v take_v to_o confirm_v it_o from_o the_o event_n of_o our_o late_a war_n you_o know_v likewise_o sir_n how_o much_o my_o judgement_n be_v for_o the_o order_n of_o bishop_n and_o how_o passionate_a a_o lover_n i_o be_o both_o of_o the_o king_n person_n and_o government_n but_o yet_o be_v thus_o call_v by_o you_o to_o declare_v the_o truth_n though_o contrary_a to_o my_o own_o humour_n and_o interest_n i_o must_v needs_o say_v 1._o it_o be_v clear_a from_o story_n that_o king_n be_v in_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n in_o their_o most_o flourish_a estate_n before_o ever_o bishop_n be_v hear_v of_o and_o no_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v why_o what_o have_v once_o be_v may_v not_o with_o the_o same_o term_n of_o convenience_n be_v again_o 2._o bishop_n as_o they_o be_v by_o law_n establish_v in_o england_n be_v pure_o the_o king_n subordinate_a minister_n in_o the_o management_n of_o ecclesiastical_a affair_n which_o his_o majesty_n may_v confer_v upon_o what_o order_n of_o man_n he_o please_v though_o they_o be_v as_o much_o lay-person_n as_o you_o and_o i_o be_v it_o be_v therefore_o very_o injurious_a to_o the_o king_n authority_n to_o aver_v that_o he_o can_v not_o otherwise_o uphold_v and_o maintain_v it_o then_o by_o preserve_v the_o undue_a and_o as_o some_o think_v antichristian_a dignity_n and_o prelation_n of_o his_o inferior_a officer_n 3._o bishop_n be_v so_o little_a useful_a to_o support_v the_o regal_a dignity_n which_o be_v found_v upon_o a_o distinct_a basis_n of_o its_o own_o that_o upon_o enquiry_n it_o will_v be_v find_v how_o none_o have_v be_v great_a enemy_n to_o the_o true_a and_o undoubted_a sovereignty_n of_o prince_n than_o some_o bishop_n themselves_o for_o by_o their_o officious_a and_o scarce_o warrantable_a intermeddle_v in_o civil_a affair_n by_o their_o absurd_a and_o insignificant_a distinguish_n between_o civil_a and_o ecclesiastical_a cause_n of_o which_o last_o they_o have_v always_o make_v themselves_o sole_a judge_n they_o mangle_v the_o king_n authority_n and_o as_o to_o church-matter_n which_o may_v be_v extend_v as_o far_o as_o they_o please_v they_o leave_v the_o king_n nothing_o of_o supremacy_n but_o the_o name_n the_o pope_n of_o rome_n therefore_o who_o be_v the_o great_a father_n of_o all_o such_o bishop_n have_v improve_v this_o notion_n and_o distinction_n so_o far_o that_o in_o ordine_fw-la ad_fw-la spiritualia_fw-la he_o have_v

to_o judge_v what_o all_o those_o bishop_n that_o be_v of_o the_o bishop_n of_o worcester_n complexion_n real_o drive_v at_o by_o the_o fatal_a example_n of_o that_o one_o bishop_n usurpation_n for_o

be●t_v all_o defensible_a 3_o pag._n 2_o &_o 3_o i_o be_o sure_a can_v be_v defend_v only_o by_o those_o argument_n which_o be_v common_o allege_v to_o maintain_v the_o pope_n supremacy_n over_o all_o church_n whatever_o for_o since_o a_o bishop_n can_v not_o otherwise_o discharge_v his_o duty_n herein_o then_o by_o provide_v substitute_n what_o hinder_v but_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n may_v as_o

do_v not_o at_o all_o alter_v the_o case_n i_o forbear_v to_o urge_v how_o contrary_a this_o practice_n be_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n both_o paul_n and_o peter_n i_o hope_v the_o bishop_n will_v not_o take_v it_o ill_a that_o i_o do_v not_o call_v they_o saint_n for_o these_o holy_a man_n do_v not_o need_v any_o stile_n of_o honour_n out_o of_o the_o pope_n calendar_n when_o paul_n have_v send_v for_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n at_o ephesus_n he_o bid_v they_o to_o feed_v the_o church_n of_o god_n over_o which_o not_o he_o himself_o 28._o act._n 20_o 28._o by_o

person_n but_o likewise_o that_o whoever_o feed_v the_o flock_n be_v under_o christ_n who_o the_o apostle_n there_o style_v the_o chief-shepherd_n the_o next_o and_o immediate_a pastor_n of_o the_o flock_n and_o to_o extend_v the_o pastoral_n power_n beyond_o the_o actual_a care_n of_o feed_v be_v a_o notion_n altogether_o unscriptural_a and_o likewise_o leave_v we_o no_o bound_n where_o to_o fix_v till_o we_o come_v to_o centre_n upon_o some_o one_o universal_a pastor_n who_o may_v claim_v this_o power_n over_o the_o whole_a world_n by_o the_o same_o parity_n of_o reason_n that_o a_o

least_o pretence_n of_o scripture_n or_o primitive_a practice_n to_o justify_v it_o for_o our_o saviour_n tell_v we_o that_o whoever_o be_v not_o against_o he_o be_v for_o he_o and_o the_o apostle_n bid_v we_o to_o receive_v our_o weak_a brother_n and_o not_o to_o judge_v much_o less_o to_o burden_v his_o conscience_n unto_o which_o sacred_a canon_n nothing_o can_v be_v more_o direct_o contrary_a than_o what_o the_o bishop_n most_o incompassionate_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o law_n do_v well_o to_o punish_v even_o with_o non-admission_n to_o the_o sacrament_n such_o as_o will_v not_o or_o perhaps_o dare_v not_o kneel_z and_o the_o reason_n he_o give_v be_v equal_o apocrypha_fw-la because_o say_v he_o it_o become_v not_o the_o lawgiver_n to_o endanger_v the_o church_n peace_n for_o their_o sake_n as_o if_o first_o it_o do_v not_o much_o more_o become_v all_o lawgiver_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n to_o observe_v the_o law_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v a_o law_n of_o love_n and_o

against_o all_o those_o who_o force_v all_o communicant_n to_o come_v unto_o they_o and_o be_v particular_o examine_v before_o they_o admit_v they_o to_o the_o sacrament_n indeed_o sir_n this_o be_v a_o imposition_n as_o no_o way_n justifiable_a so_o for_o aught_o i_o can_v hear_v no_o where_o practise_v the_o custom_n be_v that_o man_n be_v only_o once_o for_o all_o examine_v at_o their_o first_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n which_o the_o bishop_n himself_o allow_v under_o other_o name_n of_o be_v catechise_v and_o instruct_v it_o be_v therefore_o wise_o do_v or_o the_o bishop_n this_o cold_a weather_n to_o set_v up_o a_o man_n of_o straw_n and_o then_o get_v himself_o heat_n by_o thresh_v it_o 2_o it_o be_v methinks_v very_o politic_o do_v to_o exclaim_v against_o the_o poor_a covenant_n and_o in_o great_a zeal_n to_o wish_v all_o the_o book_n which_o defend_v it_o be_v burn_v by_o the_o author_n to_o save_v the_o hangman_n a_o labour_n for_o here_o let_v his_o adversary_n do_v what_o he_o can_v the_o bishop_n will_v be_v too_o hard_a for_o he_o for_o if_o he_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o the_o covenant_n the_o bishop_n clear_o gain_v the_o cause_n if_o he_o venture_v to_o assert_v it_o he_o shall_v present_o be_v confute_v with_o a_o confiscation_n so_o that_o under_o the_o shelter_n of_o this_o unanswerable_a dilemma_n i_o leave_v he_o lest_o i_o shall_v be_v gore_v with_o the_o horn_n of_o it_o and_o this_o i_o speak_v sir_n as_o one_o that_o though_o i_o never_o take_v but_o always_o oppose_v the_o covenant_n yet_o i_o have_v a_o very_a good_a opinion_n of_o many_o that_o do_v and_o withal_o a_o great_a tenderness_n for_o the_o lawful_a part_n of_o a_o oath_n after_o it_o be_v once_o solemn_o take_v i_o will_v only_o add_v this_o that_o since_o that_o oath_n have_v be_v so_o general_o take_v even_o by_o those_o that_o be_v most_o active_a in_o his_o late_a majesty_n service_n and_o several_a time_n venture_v their_o life_n to_o signalise_v their_o loyalty_n i_o think_v the_o ash_n of_o it_o since_o it_o be_v burn_v by_o public_a authority_n have_v much_o better_o have_v be_v suffer_v to_o rest_v quiet_o than_o thus_o to_o be_v blow_v up_o and_o scatter_v abroad_o by_o the_o bishop_n furious_a breath_n when_o no_o occasion_n be_v give_v he_o so_o much_o as_o to_o mention_v it_o last_o i_o can_v never_o enough_o commend_v the_o bishop_n wisdom_n in_o resolve_v so_o angry_o never_o to_o write_v again_o for_o he_o be_v old_a and_o have_v travel_v far_o and_o know_v that_o it_o be_v much_o easy_a to_o speak_v rash_a and_o unjustifiable_a thing_n than_o to_o defend_v they_o and_o therefore_o he_o deal_v with_o those_o that_o he_o have_v provoke_v as_o witty_a schoolboy_n do_v wish_v their_o companion_n first_o he_o hit_v they_o a_o box_n on_o the_o ear_n and_o then_o very_o discreet_o retreat_v and_o fair_o run_v away_o but_o if_o goliath_n who_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o defy_v the_o host_n of_o israel_n shall_v as_o soon_o as_o ever_o he_o have_v do_v have_v sneak_v out_o of_o the_o field_n and_o think_v he_o have_v do_v manful_o enough_o in_o make_v a_o bold_a challenge_n and_o in_o show_v his_o tooth_n at_o they_o i_o believe_v the_o philistine_n will_v hardly_o have_v thank_v he_o for_o that_o empty_a show_n of_o valour_n whereby_o he_o can_v not_o conquer_v but_o only_o enrage_v the_o enemy_n and_o whether_o the_o bishop_n will_v not_o have_v the_o same_o opinion_n of_o this_o overforward_a and_o unwary_a champion_n of_o they_o i_o hope_v sir_n you_o will_v neither_o
