be_v warrant_n unto_o which_o presumption_n there_o be_v these_o five_o step_n or_o degree_n degree_n 1_o first_o a_o secret_a wish_n that_o such_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v large_a 1._o how_o the_o

not_o require_v which_o we_o know_v to_o be_v strict_o enjoin_v degree_n 2_o second_o upon_o this_o wish_n a_o expostulation_n with_o ourselves_o whither_o it_o may_v be_v no_o way_n lawful_a to_o commit_v that_o vice_n to_o neglect_v that_o duty_n so_o make_v that_o now_o questionable_a which_o before_o we_o know_v to_o be_v absolute_a every_o way_n unlawful_a degree_n 3_o three_o a_o strong_a imagination_n upon_o this_o question_n that_o it_o may_v be_v very_o gainful_a and_o commodious_a if_o we_o do_v take_v some_o liberty_n to_o ourselves_o in_o this_o kind_n degree_n 4_o the_o four_o

i_o know_v not_o what_o and_o so_o by_o consequent_a from_o all_o this_o premise_n a_o presumptuous_a perpetrate_a of_o the_o offence_n by_o these_o degree_n we_o come_v to_o presume_v and_o to_o

second_o by_o yield_v unto_o doubt_n three_o by_o a_o kind_n of_o temporary_a despair_n either_o of_o god_n providence_n to_o relieve_v we_o in_o our_o temporal_a want_n and_o danger_n or_o of_o his_o readiness_n to_o accheere_n we_o in_o our_o spiritual_a desertion_n that_o the_o first_o of_o these_o evil_n do_v straighten_v the_o conscience_n it_o be_v plain_a by_o this_o argument_n whatsoever_o do_v cause_n scrupulous_a distraction_n or_o distract_n scruple_n do_v bring_v the_o conscience_n into_o strait_n but_o ignorance_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o bind_n and_o subiect_v of_o the_o conscience_n do_v cause_n scrupulous_a distraction_n therefore_o such_o a_o ignorance_n streighten_v the_o conscience_n for_o when_o the_o christian_a know_v not_o thorough_o what_o thing_n bind_v the_o conscience_n wherein_o conscience_n be_v to_o be_v subject_a how_o far_o forth_o thing_n bind_v nor_o how_o or_o in_o what_o case_n with_o what_o condition_n conscience_n be_v to_o submit_v must_v it_o not_o needs_o bring_v he_o into_o a_o world_n of_o distraction_n how_o can_v it_o otherwise_o be_v second_o that_o yield_v to_o doubt_n do_v straighten_v the_o conscience_n it_o be_v clear_a because_o doubt_n be_v enemy_n to_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o conscience_n which_o peace_n be_v the_o august_n the_o cordis_n delectatio_fw-la est_fw-la cordis_fw-la dilatatio_fw-la august_n
