in_o spiritual_a thing_n so_o now_o at_o this_o time_n we_o find_v it_o absolute_o necessary_a even_o for_o our_o own_o temporal_a safety_n so_o to_o do_v because_o if_o this_o care_n be_v not_o take_v to_o heart_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o the_o breach_n of_o protestant_a state_n and_o church_n which_o have_v make_v many_o of_o they_o a_o prey_n unto_o their_o enemy_n will_n in_o the_o end_n betray_v they_o all_o and_o at_o last_o come_v to_o such_o a_o height_n that_o they_o will_v devour_v and_o consume_v one_o another_o therefore_o all_o true-hearted_a protestant_n that_o be_v zealous_a for_o god_n glory_n and_o the_o safety_n of_o his_o church_n but_o chief_o those_o that_o be_v in_o authority_n or_o credit_n able_a to_o dispose_v other_o be_v humble_o entreat_v to_o

every_o one_o of_o we_o rom._n 15._o 2._o to_o please_v our_o neighbour_n for_o his_o good_a to_o edification_n then_o sure_o we_o ought_v far_o more_o to_o labour_v to_o please_v all_o in_o that_o which_o be_v best_a and_o if_o every_o one_o ought_v to_o do_v this_o than_o most_o of_o all_o those_o that_o be_v eminent_a in_o place_n and_o in_o credit_n with_o other_o for_o to_o who_o do_v this_o duty_n rather_o belong_v than_o unto_o such_o as_o than_o the_o work_n ought_v not_o either_o to_o be_v agitate_a without_o the_o knowledge_n and_o consent_n of_o superior_n in_o church_n and_o
