of_o the_o devil_n who_o be_v a_o liar_n and_o a_o murderer_n from_o the_o beginning_n and_o now_o i_o shall_v mention_v and_o lay_v before_o you_o some_o of_o the_o cruelty_n and_o great_a persecution_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a clergy_n and_o some_o of_o their_o hearer_n and_o member_n of_o their_o church_n both_o in_o old_a england_n and_o in_o new-england_n which_o they_o have_v act_v and_o do_v against_o the_o people_n of_o god_n who_o be_v in_o scorn_n call_v by_o the_o world_n quaker_n first_o they_o have_v cast_v many_o of_o we_o into_o prison_n and_o there_o they_o have_v keep_v several_a until_o they_o die_v and_o by_o their_o mean_n and_o do_n they_o have_v take_v away_o the_o good_n and_o chattel_n of_o many_o of_o our_o friend_n both_o rich_a and_o poor_a to_o the_o value_n of_o many_o thousand_o of_o pound_n and_o this_o they_o do_v in_o oliver_n cromwell_n time_n and_o they_o proceed_v against_o we_o for_o not_o pay_v of_o they_o tithe_n and_o money_n for_o preach_v by_o a_o law_n which_o give_v they_o treble_a damage_n and_o they_o cause_v evil_a man_n for_o to_o come_v into_o our_o house_n and_o ground_n for_o to_o distrain_v our_o good_n and_o chattel_n which_o they_o do_v several_a time_n and_o sell_v our_o good_n and_o chattel_n and_o give_v the_o money_n to_o those_o tything_n hireling-priest_n and_o they_o sell_v our_o good_n &_o chattel_n at_o a_o undervalue_n and_o they_o take_v many_o time_n good_n and_o chattel_n from_o we_o which_o be_v worth_a above_o five_o time_n more_o than_o they_o call_v their_o due_n &_o thus_o they_o have_v do_v to_o many_o of_o we_o and_o they_o have_v cast_v several_a into_o prison_n for_o less_o than_o eighteen_o penny_n a_o piece_n at_o their_o own_o valuation_n which_o they_o say_v be_v their_o due_n and_o thus_o they_o have_v ruinate_v several_a of_o our_o friend_n and_o their_o family_n aforesaid_a in_o their_o estate_n beside_o the_o cruelty_n which_o they_o have_v inflict_v upon_o our_o body_n in_o cast_v many_o of_o we_o into_o prison_n and_o there_o they_o keep_v many_o until_o they_o die_v and_o thus_o cruel_o with_o much_o more_o cruelty_n which_o be_v here_o too_o tedious_a to_o mention_v have_v they_o act_v and_o do_v against_o we_o because_o we_o can_v not_o for_o good_a conscience_n sake_n uphold_v they_o in_o their_o ungodly_a way_n and_o practice_n as_o to_o pay_v they_o tithe_n and_o money_n for_o their_o preach_v as_o minister_n of_o christ_n as_o they_o and_o the_o people_n that_o hear_v they_o call_v and_o account_v they_o to_o be_v but_o christ_n come_v to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o that_o law_n and_o priesthood_n and_o covenant_n by_o which_o tithe_n be_v pay_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n and_o first_o covenant_n and_o have_v abolish_v it_o read_v heb._n 7._o 8_o 9_o 10._o and_o where_o do_v you_o find_v or_o read_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n that_o any_o of_o the_o true_a minister_n of_o christ_n take_v tithe_n or_o money_n for_o their_o preach_n or_o do_v ever_o any_o of_o the_o true_a believer_n and_o follower_n of_o christ_n pay_v tithe_n and_o whosoever_o they_o be_v that_o either_o take_v tithe_n or_o pay_v tithe_n deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v and_o the_o end_n of_o his_o come_n so_o as_o to_o yield_v obedience_n unto_o he_o by_o do_v that_o which_o he_o require_v of_o they_o and_o now_o i_o have_v something_o more_o to_o mention_v of_o the_o wickedness_n and_o cruelty_n and_o murder_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a clergy_n and_o the_o professor_n and_o member_n of_o their_o church_n in_o new-england_n against_o the_o people_n of_o god_n call_v in_o scorn_n quaker_n first_o they_o cast_v many_o in_o prison_n and_o they_o whip_v many_o in_o a_o cruel_a manner_n both_o man_n and_o woman_n 〈◊〉_d their_o naked_a body_n and_o they_o take_v away_o the_o good_n and_o 〈◊〉_d of_o many_o of_o the_o people_n aforesaid_a and_o they_o brand_v and_o burn_v they_o with_o hot_a ●●ons_n and_o they_o cut_v off_o the_o ear_n of_o some_o and_o banish_v they_o and_o all_o these_o cruelty_n with_o much_o more_o which_o be_v not_o here_o mention_v which_o they_o act_v and_o do_v against_o the_o people_n aforesaid_a will_v not_o sati●fie_v their_o bloodthirsty_a spirit_n and_o now_o i_o desire_v all_o true_a christian_n who_o be_v true_a believer_n and_o lover_n of_o christ_n to_o consider_v and_o take_v notice_n of_o all_o these_o cruelty_n and_o murder_n aforesaid_a and_o see_v if_o these_o clergyman_n and_o people_n aforesaid_a be_v not_o act_v and_o guide_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n now_o that_o the_o high-priest_n and_o chief_a priest_n and_o scribes_z and_o pharisee_n be_v when_o christ_n be_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o they_o have_v a_o form_n of_o godliness_n and_o profess_a scripture_n and_o they_o make_v long_a prayer_n and_o make_v clean_o the_o outside_n and_o appear_v righteous_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n but_o their_o heart_n be_v deceitful_a and_o full_a of_o hypocrisy_n and_o iniquity_n as_o many_o of_o the_o priest_n and_o professor_n of_o religion_n be_v find_v to_o be_v now_o by_o their_o evil_a life_n and_o conversation_n in_o this_o world_n and_o be_v there_o any_o great_a enemy_n to_o christ_n jesus_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n than_o those_o high-priest_n and_o chief_a priest_n and_o scribes_z and_o pharisee_n be_v then_o and_o they_o seek_v every_o way_n they_o can_v for_o to_o destroy_v christ_n and_o his_o minister_n and_o seek_v false_a witness_n against_o they_o for_o to_o have_v they_o put_v to_o death_n and_o christ_n and_o some_o of_o his_o minister_n be_v put_v to_o death_n by_o mean_n of_o such_o wicked_a ungodly_a priest_n and_o professor_n of_o religion_n as_o aforesaid_a which_o have_v a_o form_n of_o godliness_n but_o they_o be_v absolute_a enemy_n to_o these_o that_o live_v in_o the_o life_n and_o power_n of_o godliness_n as_o these_o priest_n and_o professor_n and_o people_n be_v
