B04844	The case considered & resolved: whether Mr. Brooks his pills to purge malignants were prescribed from ignorance, malice, or both, or, (Mr Tho. Brooks his inside turn'd outward). Wherein all godly, humble, and ingenious Christians, whether in a congregational way or other, are concerned, to inquire into the truth ... presented in generall to the inhabitants of Margarets New Fish-street, but more particularly for the consideration of himself, and those of his congregation ... also friendly advice to an unfriendly neighbour, desiring him for the time to come to abstain from reviling such persons as he never spake word to, nor they to him. / By Richard Parham, a parishoner of the said parish.

or_o city_n shake_v off_o the_o dust_n off_o your_o foot_n true_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o it_o shall_v be_v easy_a for_o the_o land_n of_o sodom_n and_o gomorrah_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n then_o for_o that_o city_n have_v do_v with_o the_o preamble_n the_o next_o thing_n in_o course_n be_v the_o petition_n itself_o which_o if_o this_o discourse_n shall_v chance_v to_o come_v to_o the_o hand_n of_o stranger_n they_o may_v take_v a_o full_a view_n of_o it_o and_o make_v the_o most_o strict_a scrutiny_n into_o it_o and_o see_v whither_o either_o it_o or_o the_o petitioner_n be_v such_o monster_n as_o they_o be_v render_v to_o the_o honourable_a committee_n for_o plunder_v minister_n the_o humble_a petition_n of_o the_o parishioner_n of_o margaret_n new-fishstreet_n london_n who_o name_n be_v hereunto_o subscribe_v show_v that_o one_o mr._n thomas_n brooks_n be_v by_o order_n of_o your_o honour_n date_v the_o twenty_o three_o of_o march_n 1651._o appoint_v to_o preach_v for_o a_o month_n next_o ensue_v as_o probationer_n to_o the_o end_n that_o upon_o the_o parishioner_n and_o the_o say_a mr._n brook_v mutual_a trial_n of_o each_o other_o the_o say_a mr._n brooks_n may_v continue_v or_o your_o petitioner_n have_v some_o other_o to_o officiate_v among_o they_o your_o petitioner_n be_v humble_o bold_a to_o offer_v to_o your_o honour_n consideration_n that_o they_o have_v have_v trial_n of_o the_o say_a mr._n brook_v ever_o since_o your_o honour_n order_n but_o can_v find_v that_o comfort_n to_o their_o soul_n they_o hope_v nor_o indeed_o be_v the_o say_a mr._n brook_v so_o qualify_v to_o your_o petitioner_n understanding_n as_o to_o remain_v any_o long_o with_o they_o and_o further_o your_o petitioner_n say_v that_o the_o say_v mr._n brooks_n refuse_v to_o afford_v your_o petitioner_n the_o use_n of_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n nor_o will_v he_o bury_v their_o dead_a the_o petitioner_n therefore_o humble_o pray_v that_o your_o honour_n will_v be_v please_v to_o revoke_v your_o order_n and_o give_v liberty_n to_o your_o petitioner_n for_o six_o month_n to_o present_v a_o fit_a person_n to_o your_o honour_n to_o be_v their_o minister_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n that_o sequestrator_n may_v be_v appoint_v to_o provide_v for_o the_o service_n of_o the_o cure_n out_o of_o such_o money_n as_o shall_v arise_v for_o tithe_n out_o of_o the_o say_a parish_n and_o etc._n etc._n if_o you_o please_v serious_o to_o consider_v of_o the_o petition_n i_o believe_v you_o will_v not_o find_v one_o word_n of_o malignancy_n or_o disaffection_n to_o the_o present_a government_n but_o mere_o to_o entreat_v for_o that_o in_o point_n of_o religion_n which_o to_o their_o understanding_n seem_v most_o reasonable_a and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o all_o those_o principle_n and_o reason_n which_o have_v be_v still_o press_v for_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n let_v the_o world_n judge_n and_o i_o hope_v the_o gentleman_n will_v not_o force_v a_o practice_n before_o he_o convince_v the_o understanding_n observation_n on_o some_o of_o his_o query_n in_o the_o next_o place_n i_o come_v to_o the_o query_n he_o make_v on_o the_o malignant_n petition_n as_o he_o term_v they_o first_o whereas_o he_o say_v it_o be_v never_o propound_v to_o he_o to_o preach_v as_o probationer_n among_o they_o etc._n etc._n true_o how_o or_o upon_o what_o term_n he_o come_v in_o i_o know_v not_o neither_o do_v i_o trouble_v myself_o about_o the_o choice_n either_o for_o or_o against_o he_o but_o i_o think_v with_o myself_o and_o as_o some_o other_o say_v we_o have_v as_o good_a to_o have_v he_o as_o a_o worse_o see_v one_o we_o must_v have_v neither_o know_v i_o of_o the_o petition_n or_o ever_o see_v it_o before_o he_o print_v it_o neither_o have_v i_o trouble_v myself_o with_o he_o or_o his_o way_n have_v he_o be_v quiet_a but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o for_o he_o to_o render_v the_o parish_n in_o general_a under_o a_o scandal_n but_o especial_o the_o petitioner_n some_o of_o who_o for_o divers_a year_n i_o have_v know_v and_o true_o may_v just_o believe_v they_o be_v as_o honest_a just_a and_o righteous_a as_o himself_o i_o be_o sure_o more_o than_o some_o of_o his_o congregation_n i_o can_v say_v more_o but_o will_v not_o lest_o i_o may_v be_v account_v a_o flatterer_n but_o true_o it_o may_v be_v the_o petitioner_n as_o well_o as_o myself_o care_v not_o to_o spend_v our_o time_n to_o hear_v this_o be_v a_o brave_a word_n this_o a_o fine_a word_n this_o be_v a_o sweet_a word_n and_o to_o have_v he_o speak_v with_o reverence_n that_o have_v not_o christ_n accomplish_v the_o work_n of_o redemption_n for_o which_o he_o be_v send_v that_o god_n will_v have_v make_v heaven_n too_o hot_a to_o hold_v he_o and_o the_o like_a but_o consider_v the_o whole_a parish_n to_o lie_v under_o a_o reproach_n although_o i_o be_v one_o of_o the_o mean_a yet_o think_v it_o my_o duty_n though_o but_o weak_o to_o take_v off_o the_o stain_n so_o much_o as_o i_o may_v for_o the_o proverb_n be_v tread_v on_o a_o worm_n and_o it_o will_v turn_v and_o lest_o our_o silence_n may_v conclude_v we_o to_o be_v altogether_o such_o as_o the_o gentleman_n himself_o and_o friend_n who_o press_v he_o to_o publish_v the_o book_n be_v please_v to_o term_v we_o there_o can_v not_o in_o reason_n have_v be_v less_o say_v he_o say_v he_o preach_v above_o twenty_o sermon_n in_o the_o winter_n on_o the_o lecture_n night_n but_o i_o wish_v he_o have_v tell_v we_o what_o he_o mean_v by_o preach_v because_o i_o judge_v the_o gospel_n preach_v be_v to_o speak_v as_o the_o spirit_n give_v utterance_n and_o not_o the_o read_n of_o a_o few_o write_a note_n that_o have_v be_v premeditate_v and_o study_v five_o or_o six_o day_n before_o and_o also_o i_o further_o desire_v to_o know_v what_o rule_n or_o example_n there_o be_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o ever_o any_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v or_o aught_o to_o preach_v upon_o trial_n to_o gain_v a_o benefice_n in_o the_o four_o quaery_n he_o say_v the_o profane_a malignant_a petitioner_n have_v neither_o a_o hand_n in_o choose_v nor_o heart_n to_o make_v trial_n of_o his_o ministry_n and_o that_o they_o may_v well_o have_v a_o black_a brand_n put_v upon_o they_o as_o man_n void_a of_o common_a honesty_n and_o ingenuity_n etc._n etc._n with_o more_o of_o the_o same_o language_n which_o i_o suppose_v he_o have_v do_v to_o the_o purpose_n for_o answer_v to_o which_o i_o say_v if_o it_o shall_v be_v grant_v that_o they_o have_v neither_o a_o hand_n in_o choose_v nor_o heart_n to_o make_v trial_n of_o his_o ministry_n yet_o i_o suppose_v the_o gentleman_n have_v a_o trial_n of_o their_o money_n and_o also_o a_o heart_n to_o make_v use_n of_o it_o though_o by_o his_o own_o word_n they_o have_v nothing_o for_o it_o and_o therefore_o in_o modesty_n may_v have_v use_v they_o more_o kind_o and_o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o what_o the_o petitioner_n speak_v in_o the_o petition_n be_v as_o far_o from_o truth_n as_o the_o petitioner_n be_v from_o be_v real_a friend_n to_o the_o present_a authority_n of_o the_o nation_n it_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o petitioner_n do_v own_o the_o present_a authority_n by_o their_o humble_a address_n to_o the_o honourable_a committee_n for_o plunder_v minister_n in_o answer_n to_o what_o he_o say_v i_o beseech_v you_o bear_v with_o a_o little_a digression_n what_o shall_v i_o say_v to_o the_o gentleman_n shall_v i_o retort_v his_o own_o language_n upon_o he_o as_o one_o be_v void_a of_o common_a honesty_n &_o ingenuity_n for_o have_v the_o petitioner_n former_o be_v malignant_a &_o enemy_n the_o present_a government_n yet_o consider_v the_o present_a authority_n have_v be_v gracious_o please_v to_o pass_v a_o general_a act_n of_o pardon_n and_o oblivion_n whereby_o all_o that_o emulation_n and_o heart-burn_n between_o several_a party_n may_v be_v a_o greed_n and_o quite_o forget_v for_o he_o to_o rake_v up_o the_o ember_n and_o blow_v the_o coal_n of_o division_n afresh_o in_o that_o kind_n by_o brand_a of_o they_o with_o that_o which_o ought_v not_o once_o to_o be_v mention_v argue_v but_o little_a in_o the_o gentleman_n either_o of_o ingenuity_n or_o honesty_n but_o see_v that_o he_o be_v of_o such_o a_o strain_n that_o he_o care_v not_o what_o it_o be_v so_o he_o can_v find_v any_o thing_n to_o render_v the_o person_n odious_a with_o who_o he_o be_v offend_v i_o shall_v take_v the_o boldness_n to_o remember_v he_o of_o some_o passage_n that_o may_v be_v very_o considerable_a as_o to_o the_o thing_n in_o hand_n how_o his_o affection_n may_v be_v to_o the_o present_a government_n in_o the_o late_a king_n time_n
