that_o god_n will_v take_v they_o out_o of_o the_o world_n this_o you_o may_v find_v in_o the_o report_n of_o that_o learned_a judge_n as_o it_o be_v leave_v among_o many_o other_o of_o his_o report_n all_o exact_o write_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o as_o they_o be_v now_o publish_v by_o sir_n harebottle_n grimstone_n who_o now_o be_v the_o worthy_a master_n of_o the_o roll_n and_o you_o may_v note_v that_o the_o say_v report_n be_v publish_v in_o the_o year_n 1658_o at_o which_o time_n oliver_n the_o tyrant_n be_v in_o his_o full_a power_n and_o you_o may_v there_o find_v that_o all_o his_o judge_n allow_v these_o report_n to_o be_v make_v public_a and_o subscribe_v their_o name_n to_o they_o and_o with_o oliver_n consent_n doubtless_o for_o he_o have_v find_v that_o those_o very_a nonconformist_n who_o sedition_n help_v he_o into_o his_o power_n become_v after_o a_o short_a time_n as_o restless_a and_o discontent_n as_o they_o be_v with_o their_o lawful_a king_n and_o indeed_o as_o willing_a to_o pull_v he_o down_o as_o they_o have_v be_v diligent_a to_o set_v he_o up_o dear_a cousin_n these_o place_n to_o which_o i_o have_v refer_v you_o for_o a_o testimony_n of_o what_o

will_n and_o now_o serious_o sir_n let_v i_o appeal_v to_o your_o own_o conscience_n and_o ask_v how_o easy_o will_v you_o have_v give_v credit_n to_o any_o stranger_n that_o have_v bring_v you_o news_n of_o any_o error_n commit_v by_o any_o bishop_n or_o their_o chaplin_n or_o by_o any_o of_o the_o conformable_a clergy_n though_o there_o be_v not_o any_o reasonable_a probability_n for_o it_o dear_a cousin_n consider_v what_o i_o say_v and_o consider_v there_o be_v a_o great_a stock_n of_o innocent_a blood_n to_o be_v answer_v for_o not_o only_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o late_a virtuous_a

of_o sorrow_n by_o be_v impoverish_v and_o undo_v and_o which_o be_v worse_o there_o be_v a_o corruption_n of_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o nation_n to_o be_v answer_v for_o and_o all_o this_o occasion_v by_o our_o late_a civil_a war_n and_o that_o war_n occasion_v by_o the_o discontent_a restless_a nonconformist_n and_o they_o only_o for_o till_o then_o we_o know_v not_o the_o name_n of_o independent_a or_o of_o seiker_n or_o quaker_n cousin_n these_o be_v the_o sad_a effect_n of_o these_o busy_a body_n many_o of_o who_o god_n have_v still_o so_o blind_v that_o they_o can_v yet_o see_v the_o error_n they_o have_v run_v themselves_o and_o the_o nation_n into_o nay_o that_o will_v imbroile_v it_o again_o into_o great_a ruin_n rather_o than_o not_o be_v comply_v with_o in_o their_o peevish_a desire_n and_o design_n dear_a cousin_n i_o will_v not_o say_v all_o but_o indeed_o too_o many_o of_o the_o man_n with_o who_o you_o comply_v and_o do_v so_o much_o magnify_v be_v too_o like_o simeon_n and_o levi_n that_o be_v brethren_n in_o this_o iniquity_n and_o as_o you_o love_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n in_o which_o you_o be_v baptise_a and_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o land_n in_o which_o you_o be_v bear_v and_o live_v and_o enjoy_v what_o you_o have_v nay_o as_o you_o love_v the_o peace_n of_o your_o own_o soul_n draw_v back_o and_o let_v it_o not_o enter_v any_o more_o into_o their_o counsel_n or_o confederacy_n but_o at_o last_o take_v notice_n that_o though_o neither_o you_o nor_o any_o of_o your_o associate_n scruple_n at_o the_o sin_n of_o sedition_n but_o rush_v into_o it_o without_o consideration_n or_o fear_n even_o as_o a_o horse_n rush_n into_o the_o battle_n yet_o i_o pray_v take_v notice_n that_o st._n paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o galatian_n reckon_v it_o with_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o flesh_n even_o with_o murder_n and_o witchcraft_n which_o you_o so_o much_o abhor_v and_o many_o think_v sedition_n a_o more_o heinous_a sin_n than_o they_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o more_o evil_a and_o more_o destructive_a effect_n of_o it_o for_o murder_n may_v become_v so_o by_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o but_o one_o single_a person_n and_o witchcraft_n have_v its_o limit_n and_o bound_n set_v to_o it_o perhaps_o not_o to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o any_o man_n but_o only_o to_o do_v mischief_n to_o a_o single_a person_n or_o a_o family_n and_o must_v end_v there_o but_o who_o know_v the_o limit_n of_o sedition_n or_o when_o the_o fire_n be_v kindle_v which_o be_v intend_v by_o seditious_a man_n who_o can_v who_o be_v able_a to_o quench_v it_o and_o for_o some_o proof_n of_o the_o miserable_a effect_n of_o it_o though_o i_o may_v give_v you_o too_o many_o sad_a instance_n of_o they_o in_o former_a time_n yet_o i_o will_v only_o refer_v you_o to_o the_o late_a long_a parliament_n now_o fresh_a in_o memory_n and_o the_o woeful_a effect_n of_o that_o civil_a war_n beget_v and_o maintain_v by_o seditious_a discontent_a man_n and_o for_o the_o sorrow_n you_o express_v for_o those_o man_n of_o tender_a conscience_n that_o be_v scandalize_v at_o wear_v a_o surplice_n kneel_v at_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n the_o cross_n in_o baptism_n and_o the_o like_a and_o will_v have_v they_o therefore_o take_v away_o that_o so_o many_o so_o learned_a and_o so_o godly_a man_n may_v by_o take_v they_o away_o be_v bring_v to_o a_o conformity_n and_o make_v capable_a of_o preach_v the_o gospel_n which_o otherwise_o they_o can_v do_v be_v scandalize_v at_o these_o ceremony_n i_o now_o ask_v you_o what_o if_o more_o man_n and_o more_o learned_a man_n and_o more_o godly_a man_n and_o as_o tender_v conscion_v man_n shall_v be_v scandalize_v by_o their_o be_v take_v away_o what_o care_n will_v you_o or_o those_o of_o your_o party_n take_v for_o their_o tender_a conscience_n nay_o i_o ask_v again_o what_o if_o we_o shall_v forget_v or_o neglect_v the_o tender_a conscience_n of_o our_o own_o party_n and_o comply_v with_o you_o what_o security_n can_v you_o or_o they_o give_v we_o that_o this_o shall_v satisfy_v they_o so_o as_o to_o ask_v no_o more_o when_o this_o be_v grant_v or_o that_o a_o year_n hence_o their_o disciple_n or_o their_o successor_n shall_v rest_v satisfy_v with_o what_o be_v now_o grant_v real_o i_o can_v think_v any_o security_n can_v be_v give_v but_o that_o

i_o shall_v next_o satisfy_v your_o desire_n or_o rather_o your_o challenge_n why_o i_o go_v so_o constant_o to_o the_o church_n service_n and_o my_o answer_n shall_v be_v in_o all_o love_n and_o in_o

sorry_a that_o the_o parliament_n cast_v out_o the_o bill_n of_o comprehension_n shall_v so_o much_o concern_v you_o as_o to_o put_v you_o into_o such_o a_o passion_n as_o you_o express_v against_o they_o and_o i_o at_o our_o last_o night_n meeting_n sure_o the_o company_n you_o now_o converse_v with_o and_o the_o strange_a principle_n with_o which_o they_o have_v now_o possess_v you_o have_v

the_o very_a happy_a day_n of_o our_o good_a queen_n elizabeth_n some_o of_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o say_v so_o i_o do_v with_o very_o much_o affection_n tender_a to_o your_o consideration_n and_o to_o your_o censure_n to_o and_o that_o the_o last_o may_v be_v the_o more_o charitable_a and_o you_o not_o apt_a to_o make_v the_o error_n or_o fail_n of_o your_o governor_n seem_v more_o or_o

which_o too_o many_o labour_n for_o in_o these_o day_n in_o which_o schism_n and_o sedition_n be_v take_v to_o be_v no_o sin_n by_o man_n who_o pretend_v a_o tenderness_n of_o conscience_n in_o much_o

thirty-sixth_a year_n of_o that_o good_a queen_n reign_n but_o i_o commend_v more_o especial_o to_o your_o consideration_n the_o story_n and_o sad_a death_n of_o hacket_n and_o his_o adherent_n as_o namely_o of_o wiginton_n arthington_n and_o copinger_n all_o of_o one_o sect_n and_o brotherhood_n but_o i_o say_v i_o do_v most_o serious_o commend_v to_o your_o consideration_n the_o beginning_n

you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o thirty-fourth_a year_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n as_o it_o be_v write_v by_o honest_a learned_a mr._n cambden_n who_o conclude_v this_o story_n of_o hacket_n with_o this_o

nonconformist_n to_o unsettle_v the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n and_o consequent_o of_o the_o state_n and_o may_v there_o also_o find_v how_o severe_o many_o of_o they_o have_v be_v punish_v so_o that_o you_o need_v not_o wonder_v at_o what_o i_o say_v last_o night_n not_o think_v these_o the_o only_a time_n of_o persecute_v man_n of_o tender_a conscience_n and_o for_o the_o better_a
