priest_n of_o god_n but_o of_o antichrist_n be_v there_o no_o more_o reverence_n and_o fear_n of_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n prince_n and_o sacred_a minister_n then_o by_o such_o gross_a absurdity_n to_o seek_v to_o seduce_v she_o if_o this_o be_v a_o conclusion_n of_o such_o necessity_n then_o let_v they_o go_v further_o for_o by_o as_o good_a reason_n they_o may_v god_n say_v to_o aaron_n thou_o shall_v not_o drink_v wine_n 10._o nor_o strong_a drink_n thou_o nor_o thy_o son_n that_o be_v with_o thou_o when_o you_o go_v into_o the_o tabernacle_n of_o the_o congregation_n lest_o you_o die_v letit_fw-fr be_v a_o law_n for_o ever_o throughout_o your_o generation_n in_o a_o other_o place_n commandment_n be_v give_v to_o 22._o the_o priest_n that_o they_o may_v not_o eat_v of_o that_o which_o be_v rend_v of_o wild_a beast_n and_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n if_o the_o priest_n daughter_n be_v marry_v to_o any_o of_o the_o common_a people_n she_o may_v not_o eat_v of_o the_o hallow_a offering_n but_o if_o she_o be_v a_o widow_n or_o divorce_v from_o her_o husband_n and_o have_v no_o child_n and_o be_v return_v into_o her_o father_n house_n again_o she_o may_v eat_v of_o her_o father_n meat_n as_o she_o do_v in_o her_o youth_n but_o there_o shall_v no_o stranger_n eat_v thereof_o in_o the_o 21._o of_o leviticus_fw-la it_o be_v say_v speak_v unto_o the_o priest_n the_o son_n of_o aaron_n and_o say_v let_v none_o be_v defile_v by_o the_o dead_a among_o their_o people_n and_o a_o little_a after_o let_v they_o not_o make_v baldness_n upon_o their_o head_n nor_o shave_v off_o the_o lock_n of_o their_o beard_n and_o again_o let_v he_o take_v a_o virgin_n to_o wife_n but_o a_o widow_n a_o divorce_v woman_n or_o a_o pollute_a etc._n etc._n shall_v he_o not_o marry_v now_o if_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o order_n appoint_v by_o god_n to_o the_o priest_n and_o levite_n of_o the_o old_a law_n be_v a_o thing_n so_o necessary_a in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n why_o then_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n may_v not_o drink_v wine_n or_o strong_a drink_n they_o may_v not_o suffer_v their_o daughter_n marry_v forth_o if_o they_o come_v unto_o their_o house_n to_o eat_v any_o of_o the_o ten_o and_o oblation_n whereby_o they_o live_v they_o may_v not_o come_v nigh_o a_o dead_a body_n nor_o bury_v it_o they_o may_v marry_v no_o widow_n but_o maid_n only_o and_o so_o likewise_o shall_v you_o bring_v in_o by_o as_o good_a authority_n infinite_a number_n mo_z of_o leviticall_a order_n into_o the_o church_n and_o make_v it_o rather_o like_o a_o superstitious_a synagogue_n as_o the_o pope_n church_n be_v then_o like_o a_o sincere_a &_o undefiled_a church_n of_o god_n as_o you_o will_v pretend_v to_o do_v but_o let_v we_o descend_v further_o into_o this_o allegation_n and_o see_v how_o they_o overthrow_v themselves_o in_o their_o own_o purpose_n if_o upon_o this_o proof_n it_o be_v so_o necessary_a that_o bishop_n and_o other_o minister_n shall_v not_o live_v by_o land_n then_o as_o the_o negative_a be_v necessary_a in_o the_o one_o branch_n so_o be_v the_o affirmative_a in_o the_o other_o when_o god_n have_v say_v thou_o shall_v have_v no_o inheritance_n in_o their_o land_n he_o add_v behold_v i_o have_v give_v the_o child_n of_o levi_n all_o the_o ten_o of_o israel_n to_o inherit_v for_o the_o service_n which_o they_o do_v etc._n etc._n then_o it_o be_v of_o necessity_n by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n that_o bishop_n and_o preacher_n shall_v live_v upon_o ten_o and_o offer_n neither_o may_v this_o order_n be_v alter_v by_o any_o authority_n and_o here_o be_v a_o other_o error_n of_o the_o papist_n that_o ten_o and_o offer_n be_v in_o the_o church_n jure_fw-la divino_fw-la by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o not_o by_o any_o positive_a law_n of_o the_o church_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o these_o man_n be_v not_o able_a to_o stand_v to_o their_o position_n but_o they_o must_v join_v arm_n in_o arm_n with_o the_o papist_n in_o their_o great_a and_o gross_a error_n and_o if_o it_o be_v of_o necessity_n that_o minister_n must_v live_v by_o oblation_n and_o tithe_n and_o no_o otherwise_o how_o can_v the_o prince_n by_o god_n law_n take_v away_o their_o land_n and_o set_v they_o to_o mere_a pension_n in_o money_n or_o if_o prince_n have_v liberty_n by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n according_a to_o their_o discretion_n to_o appoint_v the_o live_n of_o minister_n by_o pension_n of_o money_n contrary_a to_o the_o order_n that_o god_n have_v prescribe_v to_o his_o priest_n in_o his_o law_n why_o have_v they_o not_o like_a authority_n by_o the_o same_o word_n of_o god_n if_o they_o see_v it_o convenient_a for_o the_o state_n to_o allot_v unto_o they_o some_o portion_n of_o temporal_a land_n and_o much_o more_o to_o suffer_v and_o bear_v with_o that_o order_n be_v already_o settle_v in_o the_o church_n by_o this_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o assertion_n of_o the_o adversary_n do_v not_o hang_v together_o in_o itself_o but_o that_o the_o one_o part_n impugn_v and_o overthrow_v the_o other_o but_o i_o think_v these_o man_n deal_v not_o direct_o but_o seem_v to_o hide_v and_o conceal_v that_o which_o make_v against_o they_o for_o in_o the_o same_o place_n of_o josua_n by_o 14._o which_o they_o will_v prove_v that_o bishop_n and_o minister_n may_v not_o have_v any_o possession_n of_o land_n because_o he_o say_v to_o the_o levite_n he_o give_v no_o inheritance_n among_o they_o immediate_o he_o add_v save_v city_n to_o dwell_v in_o and_o the_o field_n about_o the_o city_n for_o their_o beast_n and_o cattle_n and_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o lord_n say_v 35._o to_o moses_n command_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n that_o they_o give_v unto_o the_o levite_n of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o their_o possession_n city_n to_o dwell_v in_o and_o you_o shall_v give_v also_o unto_o the_o city_n suburb_n hard_a by_o their_o city_n round_o about_o they_o the_o city_n they_o shall_v have_v to_o dwell_v in_o and_o the_o suburb_n or_o field_n about_o their_o city_n for_o their_o cattle_n and_o all_o manner_n beast_n of_o they_o and_o the_o suburb_n of_o the_o city_n which_o you_o shall_v give_v to_o the_o levite_n shall_v reach_v from_o the_o wall_n of_o the_o city_n round_o about_o outward_a a_o thousand_o cubit_n etc._n etc._n and_o you_o shall_v measure_v on_o the_o east_n side_n two_o thousand_o cubit_n and_o on_o the_o west_n side_n two_o thousand_o cubit_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o twenty_o one_o chapter_n of_o josua_n the_o number_n of_o these_o city_n be_v mention_v and_o the_o lot_n come_v out_o of_o the_o kindred_n of_o the_o caathite_n the_o child_n of_o aaron_n the_o priest_n which_o be_v of_o the_o levite_n and_o give_v they_o by_o lot_n out_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o judae_fw-la simeon_n and_o benjamin_n thirteen_o city_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o child_n of_o caath_v have_v by_o lot_n of_o the_o kindred_n of_o the_o tribe_n of_o ephraim_n dan_n and_o half_o the_o tribe_n of_o manasses_n ten_o city_n and_o the_o child_n of_o gerson_n have_v by_o lot_n out_o of_o the_o kindred_n of_o the_o city_n of_o isachar_n aser_n nepthaly_n and_o the_o other_o half_n of_o the_o tribe_n of_o manasses_n in_o basan_n thirteen_o city_n and_o the_o child_n of_o merari_n by_o their_o kindred_n have_v out_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o reuben_n gad_n and_o zabulon_n twelve_o city_n the_o whole_a number_n therefore_o of_o the_o city_n assign_v to_o the_o levite_n in_o the_o land_n of_o jury_n amount_v to_o forty_o eight_o now_o i_o will_v demand_v of_o indifferent_a christian_n that_o be_v not_o obstinate_o set_v to_o maintain_v a_o evil_a purpose_n whether_o the_o state_n of_o inheritance_n without_o rent_n of_o forty_o eight_o city_n in_o one_o region_n no_o big_a than_o england_n with_o the_o field_n almost_o a_o mile_n compass_n may_v be_v think_v in_o truth_n to_o be_v temporal_a possession_n or_o no_o sure_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o man_n so_o wayward_a that_o will_v deny_v it_o to_o be_v most_o true_a wherefore_o either_o the_o word_n of_o god_n must_v be_v find_v untrue_a which_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o think_v or_o else_o that_o bold_a assertion_n that_o be_v make_v of_o the_o contrary_a be_v find_v vain_a and_o the_o argument_n to_o prove_v it_o false_a and_o deceitful_a they_o that_o have_v to_o their_o portion_n forty_o eight_o city_n with_o the_o field_n thereof_o do_v not_o live_v by_o tithe_n and_o oblation_n only_o you_o see_v therefore_o good_a christian_n how_o they_o understand_v the_o scripture_n that_o in_o such_o immodest_a and_o confident_a manner_n take_v upon_o they_o to_o be_v master_n and_o controller_n of_o other_o and_o by_o how_o fleight_n allegation_n &_o absurd_a argument_n they_o seek_v to_o
