against_o the_o twelve_o commandment_n together_o be_v not_o half_a so_o foul_a and_o damn_v with_o they_o as_o that_o one_o of_o popery_n as_o they_o conceive_v it_o be_v by_o itself_o for_o these_o mean_n that_o have_v be_v take_v to_o effect_v this_o be_v so_o well_o proportion_v to_o this_o end_n and_o do_v so_o natural_o work_v people_n into_o this_o aversion_n and_o hatred_n that_o be_v christianity_n itself_o treat_v and_o expose_v to_o the_o people_n for_o some_o year_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n and_o method_n only_o as_o popery_n already_o have_v be_v i_o be_o confident_a it_o will_v be_v the_o same_o crime_n within_o a_o while_n with_o they_o to_o become_v a_o christian_n as_o now_o it_o be_v to_o turn_v papist_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n this_o method_n be_v so_o unjust_a and_o so_o unbecoming_a all_o true_a christian_a candour_n under_o which_o the_o papist_n have_v be_v suffer_v these_o so_o many_o year_n that_o i_o can_v in_o charity_n wish_v it_o to_o befall_v the_o worst_a of_o enemy_n and_o do_v charity_n allow_v i_o to_o seek_v any_o expedient_a for_o the_o ruin_n of_o any_o one_o credit_n and_o reputation_n and_o render_v he_o the_o object_n of_o a_o popular_a hatred_n i_o will_v consult_v no_o far_o but_o only_o desire_v he_o may_v take_v his_o portion_n with_o the_o papist_n and_o be_v treat_v no_o worse_o than_o they_o have_v be_v all_o along_o by_o their_o adversary_n after_o what_o manner_n this_o have_v be_v i_o hope_v the_o consider_v reader_n who_o have_v peruse_v what_o have_v be_v already_o say_v in_o this_o discourse_n do_v by_o this_o time_n comprehend_v i_o give_v some_o hint_n of_o it_o before_o in_o a_o former_a answer_n call_v the_o amicable_a accommodation_n in_o which_o under_o the_o person_n of_o a_o dissenter_n argue_v against_o and_o defame_v the_o church_n of_o england_n i_o discover_v in_o what_o manner_n the_o papist_n be_v handle_v by_o the_o protestant_n but_o this_o be_v take_v by_o some_o by_o the_o wrong_n handle_v and_o therefore_o can_v afford_v it_o no_o better_o a_o title_n than_o of_o light_n scurrilous_a and_o jest_a and_o be_v willing_a to_o persuade_v their_o reader_n 86._o that_o the_o character_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n as_o it_o be_v there_o draw_v be_v nothing_o better_a than_o a_o controversial_a lampoon_n and_o that_o since_o every_o idle_a word_n be_v to_o be_v give_v account_n of_o what_o apprehension_n ought_v the_o author_n of_o it_o to_o be_v seize_v with_o who_o instead_o of_o have_v any_o true_a zeal_n for_o truth_n have_v make_v a_o

to_o his_o adversary_n and_o of_o respect_n to_o the_o person_n and_o church_n he_o defend_v beside_o this_o he_o have_v urge_v the_o charge_n against_o they_o all_o in_o the_o bitter_a expression_n imaginable_a nothing_o be_v hear_v of_o in_o two_o whole_a page_n but_o of_o their_o art_n of_o palliate_a want_v of_o fairness_n and_o civility_n lay_v aside_o moderation_n fall_v into_o a_o vein_n of_o lightness_n and_o scurrility_n forget_v that_o religion_n be_v the_o subject_a and_o christian_n and_o scholar_n their_o antagonist_n their_o mean_a reflection_n and_o trivial_a jesting_n their_o ridicul_v their_o want_n of_o charity_n and_o respect_n their_o write_n accommodate_v to_o the_o genius_n of_o sceptic_n who_o divert_v themselves_o at_o the_o expense_n of_o all_o religion_n and_o be_v not_o design_v to_o satisfy_v the_o sober_a and_o conscientious_a of_o either_o side_n etc._n etc._n now_o what_o this_o author_n seem_v here_o at_o first_o sight_n to_o require_v be_v nothing_o but_o moderation_n candidness_n and_o civility_n in_o answerer_n of_o all_o side_n i_o can_v but_o high_o commend_v but_o then_o again_o when_o i_o look_v far_o into_o he_o and_o see_v he_o wish_v for_o moderation_n in_o the_o deep_a satyr_n condemn_v the_o want_n of_o civility_n in_o other_o with_o the_o most_o exasperate_a reflection_n of_o his_o one_o write_v against_o the_o passion_n of_o

and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n most_o uncharitably_o expose_v antagonist_n even_o such_o as_o nothing_o belong_v to_o his_o province_n under_o the_o most_o odious_a character_n imaginable_a i_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o take_v he_o in_o earnest_n he_o seem_v but_o to_o make_v a_o serious_a droll_fw-fr and_o bring_v into_o my_o mind_n what_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o one_o who_o preach_v on_o shipboard_n to_o correct_v the_o extravagant_a swear_v of_o the_o mariner_n after_o many_o argument_n to_o convince_v they_o of_o their_o profaneness_n at_o length_n to_o press_v the_o matter_n home_o to_o they_o swear_v bloody_o they_o will_v be_v all_o damn_a if_o they_o do_v not_o leave_v off_o swear_v but_o however_o it_o be_v i_o will_v answer_v for_o myself_o and_o do_v here_o assure_v this_o zealous_a author_n notwithstanding_o all_o his_o hard_a word_n that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o of_o jest_n in_o my_o last_o paper_n than_o he_o may_v find_v in_o any_o parable_n or_o emblem_n in_o which_o though_o the_o person_n may_v be_v feign_v as_o in_o that_o of_o the_o tree_n choose_v a_o king_n yet_o the_o thing_n signify_v or_o intend_v be_v real_a and_o serious_a so_o that_o thou_o it_o may_v be_v never_o any_o dissenter_n press_v all_o those_o thing_n against_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o the_o manner_n i_o have_v there_o urge_v they_o yet_o that_o there_o be_v show_v the_o exact_a method_n how_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v strike_v at_o by_o protestant_n be_v what_o be_v intend_v most_o serious_o and_o without_o any_o droll_a in_o the_o least_o and_o therefore_o if_o he_o find_v any_o ridicul_v in_o the_o argument_n mean_a reflection_n or_o trivial_a jesting_n in_o the_o urge_v they_o i_o can_v only_o tell_v he_o that_o the_o copy_n must_v be_v like_o the_o original_a and_o that_o he_o that_o undertake_v to_o show_v how_o protestant_n ridicule_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o jest_n when_o he_o do_v it_o in_o something_o that_o look_v ridiculous_a and_o if_o he_o be_v sensible_a that_o this_o way_n of_o handle_v controversy_n do_v rather_o exasperate_v than_o heal_v our_o division_n i_o be_o sincere_o of_o his_o mind_n but_o then_o think_v that_o for_o the_o prevent_v it_o he_o ought_v rather_o spend_v his_o zeal_n upon_o such_o of_o his_o brethren_n who_o by_o thus_o ridicul_v play_v the_o controvertist_n in_o good_a earnest_n with_o their_o bibles_n in_o hand_n than_o upon_o adversary_n who_o only_o detect_v the_o sophistry_n and_o by_o emblem_n show_v how_o it_o be_v do_v if_o he_o have_v therefore_o so_o much_o esteem_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n soul_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o religion_n as_o he_o pretend_v let_v he_o show_v himself_o so_o in_o a_o most_o christian_n action_n let_v he_o but_o turn_v to_o such_o of_o his_o own_o communion_n who_o have_v give_v this_o bad_a example_n and_o win_v so_o far_o upon_o they_o as_o public_o to_o make_v restitution_n to_o such_o innocent_a person_n of_o the_o credit_n and_o good_a name_n which_o they_o have_v public_o help_v to_o take_v away_o to_o remove_v that_o uncharitable_a opinion_n they_o have_v imprint_v in_o the_o very_a soul_n of_o their_o hearer_n against_o their_o neihgbor_n by_o vain_a rumour_n and_o groundless_a surmise_n let_v he_o prevail_v upon_o they_o never_o more_o to_o preach_v to_o people_n passion_n instead_o of_o their_o reason_n never_o more_o to_o inflame_v the_o multitude_n by_o preach_v to_o they_o dream_n and_o vision_n nor_o to_o advance_v every_o unsouled_a informer_n to_o the_o authority_n of_o a_o evangelist_n let_v he_o see_v that_o they_o play_v not_o with_o their_o neighbour_n reputation_n and_o religion_n and_o run_v they_o both_o down_o with_o idle_a story_n such_o as_o be_v authentic_a enough_o for_o a_o plot-catechism_n but_o not_o for_o a_o pulpit_n let_v he_o endeavour_v that_o their_o argument_n and_o method_n for_o the_o defeat_n of_o popery_n be_v not_o such_o as_o any_o jew_n
