the_o least_o intent_n when_o i_o first_o compose_v and_o afterward_o preach_v this_o sermon_n to_o make_v it_o public_a but_o there_o be_v a_o very_a busy_a and_o angry_a reflector_n who_o it_o seem_v be_v then_o a_o auditor_n who_o have_v concern_v himself_o to_o print_v remark_n upon_o it_o in_o a_o very_a little_a time_n after_o it_o be_v preach_v which_o i_o can_v but_o take_v for_o very_o disingenuous_a and_o hard_a usage_n and_o not_o know_v what_o may_v be_v the_o consequence_n thereof_o among_o those_o who_o may_v frame_v their_o judgement_n only_o by_o his_o report_n and_o may_v be_v apt_a to_o kindle_v at_o his_o fire_n i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v for_o my_o own_o vindication_n as_o also_o to_o satisfy_v the_o desire_n of_o some_o who_o i_o have_v a_o respect_n for_o at_o length_n to_o send_v it_o abroad_o and_o to_o take_v some_o little_a notice_n of_o his_o reflection_n upon_o it_o and_o i_o be_o not_o without_o hope_n but_o that_o by_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n it_o may_v be_v of_o use_n to_o some_o devout_a mind_n at_o least_o howsoever_o he_o or_o some_o other_o take_v it_o this_o reflector_n say_v he_o be_v real_o as_o much_o against_o a_o persecute_v spirit_n as_o any_o of_o those_o man_n who_o interest_n or_o coldness_n it_o be_v to_o be_v for_o what_o they_o call_v moderation_n he_o know_v himself_o best_a far_o be_v it_o therefore_o from_o i_o to_o charge_v he_o with_o that_o which_o he_o deni_v of_o himself_o but_o it_o seem_v though_o he_o be_v against_o persecution_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o for_o moderation_n for_o this_o he_o reckon_v to_o be_v from_o coldness_n or_o interest_n which_o be_v too_o low_a principle_n for_o he_o to_o be_v influence_v by_o and_o so_o one_o will_v think_v by_o he_o now_o i_o must_v own_v to_o this_o reflector_n and_o to_o all_o the_o world_n that_o i_o be_o not_o only_a against_o a_o persecute_v spirit_n and_o so_o have_v always_o be_v but_o be_o for_o moderation_n too_o yet_o not_o from_o interest_n or_o coldness_n but_o because_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o very_a great_a christian_a virtue_n and_o i_o believe_v if_o the_o reflector_n have_v something_o less_o of_o a_o persecute_v spirit_n and_o a_o little_a of_o moderation_n it_o will_v be_v never_o the_o worse_o and_o then_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v he_o have_v spare_v these_o reflection_n he_o say_v he_o be_v as_o much_o by_o temper_n and_o by_o conscience_n against_o rail_a and_o rudeness_n as_o against_o fawn_v and_o flattery_n it_o be_v great_a pity_n that_o a_o good_a temper_n shall_v ever_o be_v spoil_v by_o bad_a custom_n or_o that_o passion_n or_o heat_n shall_v ever_o over-rule_v such_o a_o principle_n as_o conscience_n but_o yet_o so_o we_o see_v it_o come_v to_o pass_v sometime_o he_o will_v have_v all_o justice_n and_o charity_n he_o say_v show_v to_o the_o dead_a of_o all_o persuasion_n and_o i_o perceive_v he_o be_v willing_a enough_o that_o dissenter_n shall_v have_v as_o much_o respect_n show_v they_o that_o way_n as_o other_o man_n of_o the_o most_o desperate_a sect_n and_o faction_n as_o pharisee_n or_o as_o the_o most_o deplorable_a heretic_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n because_o there_o may_v be_v some_o laudable_a quality_n even_o in_o such_o man_n and_o they_o be_v not_o so_o lose_v to_o god_n and_o goodness_n but_o they_o say_v and_o do_v some_o thing_n that_o be_v praise_v worthy_a and_o of_o good_a report_n which_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a concession_n and_o which_o the_o dissenter_n no_o doubt_n will_v con_fw-mi he_o much_o thanks_o for_o that_o they_o may_v be_v treat_v at_o least_o as_o well_o as_o turk_n infidel_n pharisee_n and_o heretic_n he_o be_v not_o angry_a he_o say_v that_o this_o grave_a ancient_a man_n be_v public_o treat_v with_o so_o much_o respect_n and_o honour_n and_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v then_o that_o he_o be_v so_o angry_a with_o i_o for_o treat_v he_o with_o this_o respect_n and_o honour_n which_o i_o have_v do_v especial_o when_o he_o grant_v that_o funeral_n sermon_n shall_v be_v interpret_v with_o candour_n and_o concession_n but_o it_o raise_v his_o indignation_n he_o say_v to_o hear_v such_o a_o harangue_n upon_o a_o profess_a maintainer_n of_o division_n and_o schism_n what_o that_o harangue_n be_v be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o the_o sermon_n towards_o the_o latter_a end_n which_o be_v there_o without_o the_o least_o omission_n or_o alteration_n of_o any_o one_o word_n that_o i_o know_v of_o which_o if_o he_o have_v consider_v better_a and_o have_v not_o do_v in_o haste_n what_o he_o do_v he_o may_v have_v think_v that_o there_o have_v be_v no_o such_o occasion_n give_v for_o this_o loud_a outcry_n which_o he_o have_v make_v in_o this_o business_n as_o to_o much_o of_o what_o i_o have_v mention_v in_o the_o character_n of_o this_o worthy_a person_n this_o reflector_n have_v say_v as_o much_o as_o i_o and_o somewhat_o more_o as_o i_o shall_v give_v a_o account_n afterward_o be_v better_o acquaint_v with_o some_o passage_n of_o his_o life_n of_o late_a than_o i_o be_v and_o if_o it_o be_v more_o to_o the_o purpose_n too_o i_o be_o very_o glad_a of_o it_o and_o thank_v he_o for_o it_o but_o for_o those_o stroke_n of_o his_o life_n and_o conversation_n which_o he_o say_v some_o people_n have_v object_v as_o blot_n and_o blemish_n to_o he_o and_o which_o i_o shall_v have_v make_v a_o ingenious_a apology_n for_o i_o know_v none_o there_o that_o have_v make_v such_o objection_n or_o that_o expect_v such_o apology_n and_o i_o do_v not_o in_o the_o least_o design_n then_o that_o my_o sermon_n shall_v have_v go_v far_o the_o reflector_n now_o be_v well_o acquaint_v with_o panegyric_n have_v show_v i_o what_o he_o think_v i_o may_v have_v say_v both_o way_n but_o have_v insert_v or_o add_v withal_o very_a slight_n and_o undervalue_v reflection_n which_o i_o who_o have_v less_o skill_n that_o way_n can_v but_o think_v he_o ought_v to_o have_v let_v alone_o and_o no_o doubt_n he_o have_v do_v so_o if_o he_o have_v design_v his_o remark_n in_o real_a kindness_n to_o his_o memory_n but_o i_o for_o my_o part_n do_v not_o think_v i_o have_v need_v to_o concern_v myself_o with_o any_o thing_n of_o that_o nature_n but_o must_v be_v of_o opinion_n still_o after_o all_o that_o he_o have_v say_v that_o it_o will_v have_v be_v plain_o absurd_a in_o the_o present_a audience_n and_o that_o much_o also_o of_o what_o he_o have_v say_v have_v neither_o relish_n of_o decency_n nor_o good_a nature_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o choose_v rather_o to_o express_v in_o few_o word_n what_o i_o know_v in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o acquaintance_n with_o he_o and_o to_o omit_v all_o other_o thing_n which_o do_v not_o concern_v i_o for_o it_o be_v not_o my_o business_n to_o give_v a_o history_n of_o his_o life_n nor_o indeed_o can_v i_o do_v it_o be_v but_o little_o acquaint_v with_o it_o but_o only_o in_o short_a to_o express_v his_o character_n as_o far_o as_o i_o know_v and_o if_o i_o do_v deliver_v this_o with_o as_o much_o noise_n and_o assurance_n as_o lung_n and_o liberty_n can_v take_v which_o he_o be_v a_o auditor_n say_v i_o do_v i_o hope_v it_o may_v well_o be_v ascribe_v to_o my_o affection_n and_o sense_n of_o obligation_n which_o this_o reflector_n grant_v in_o funeral_n oration_n there_o shall_v be_v a_o allowance_n for_o but_o that_o i_o speak_v it_o in_o triumph_n over_o the_o head_n of_o the_o parochial_a minister_n as_o this_o reflector_n also_o by_o a_o most_o uncharitable_a censure_n lay_v to_o my_o charge_n i_o abhor_v and_o detest_v it_o with_o as_o much_o indignation_n as_o he_o say_v he_o hear_v it_o far_o be_v it_o from_o i_o ever_o to_o have_v have_v such_o a_o intent_n or_o thought_n which_o i_o be_o sure_a never_o be_v in_o my_o heart_n nor_o can_v there_o be_v the_o least_o colour_n for_o such_o a_o censure_n but_o my_o affectionate_a delivery_n which_o the_o occasion_n draw_v from_o
