they_o myself_o two_o i_o will_v confess_v now_o beside_o all_o heretofore_o 1._o i_o fear_v i_o do_v sometime_o by_o connivance_n and_o by_o too_o oft_o preach_v against_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o bishop_n about_o 1640_o encourage_v some_o that_o be_v set_v upon_o accuse_v and_o separate_n over_o much_o though_o i_o ever_o dislike_v and_o oppose_v that_o spirit_n and_o fore●●w_v what_o

and_o keep_v the_o country_n from_o take_v it_o yet_o see_v now_o what_o i_o see_v not_o then_o i_o repent_v that_o i_o take_v it_o though_o be_v take_v i_o dare_v not_o say_v that_o it_o bind_v not_o as_o a_o secondary_a self-obligation_n to_o that_o which_o god_n bind_v i_o to_o before_o my_o reason_n be_v 1._o because_o as_o after_o impose_v no_o know_a man_n can_v believe_v that_o the_o thousand_o of_o ignorant_a people_n that_o take_v it_o who_o never_o understand_v the_o controversy_n of_o prelacy_n can_v take_v it_o in_o truth_n judgement_n and_o righteousness_n and_o so_o must_v sin_v 2._o because_o it_o cut_v the_o nation_n in_o two_o part_n on_o pretence_n of_o union_n and_o engage_v we_o against_o such_o excellent_a person_n as_o usher_n davenant_n and_o against_o the_o great_a half_n of_o the_o land_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v unite_v on_o the_o term_n of_o the_o baptismal_a covenant_n 3._o because_o be_v before_o by_o god_n and_o our_o allegiance_n sufficient_o ●lliged_v to_o the_o king_n by_o a_o further_a vow_n of_o man_n own_o make_n against_o his_o will_n they_o entangle_v the_o conscience_n of_o the_o people_n about_o the_o meaning_n and_o the_o

for_o and_o now_o the_o law_n for_o corporation_n bind_v man_n to_o declare_v that_o there_o be_v no_o obligation_n at_o all_o from_o that_o o●th_n either_o for_o the_o king_n or_o against_o any_o

of_o the_o case_n of_o suffer●rs_n and_o add_v affliction_n to_o the_o afflict_a and_o have_v not_o due_a compassion_n on_o they_o ans_fw-fr if_o this_o be_v true_a it_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n but_o 1._o why_o do_v the_o same_o man_n accuse_v i_o for_o persuade_a man_n to_o avoid_v suffering_n as_o they_o think_v by_o ill_a mean_n it_o be_v indeed_o to_o save_v man_n from_o suffer_v by_o mistake_n for_o that_o which_o be_v their_o duty_n to_o the_o injury_n of_o other_o and_o to_o reserve_v their_o patience_n for_o better_a use_n be_v like_o enough_o to_o have_v need_n of_o it_o all_o 2._o i_o thank_v god_n i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o be_v insensible_a of_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n throughout_o the_o world_n that_o i_o may_v say_v with_o paul_n rom._n 9.1_o i_o have_v continual_a sorrow_n in_o my_o heart_n for_o the_o war_n blood_n cruelty_n exercise_v on_o they_o and_o much_o more_o for_o their_o own_o sin_n and_o sure_o all_o the_o wrath_n that_o be_v against_o i_o for_o labour_v to_o save_v this_o land_n from_o division_n self-destroying_a and_o suffer_a 1661._o and_o since_o may_v have_v be_v avoid_v have_v i_o be_v so_o self-saving_a as_o the_o accuser_n feign_v i_o 3._o i_o thank_v god_n my_o suffering_n have_v be_v far_o less_o than_o i_o expect_v or_o deserve_v of_o god_n and_o not_o worthy_a to_o be_v call_v suffering_n in_o comparison_n of_o thousand_o in_o foreign_a land_n and_o i_o humble_o thank_v the_o king_n that_o they_o have_v be_v no_o great_a but_o if_o they_o have_v all_o have_v be_v now_o almost_o at_o a_o end_n i_o be_o not_o willing_a to_o name_v they_o lest_o it_o seem_v to_o savour_v of_o impatience_n but_o remember_v paul_n example_n to_o such_o accuser_n to_o the_o corinthian_n i_o will_v brief_o say_v 1._o from_o 1639._o to_o 1660._o i_o suffer_v more_o assault_n and_o opposition_n than_o some_o of_o they_o by_o divers_a penalty_n for_o divers_a duty_n against_o iniquity_n 2._o i_o think_v i_o be_v the_o first_o silence_v since_o the_o bishop_n return_n and_o the_o hot_a displeasure_n against_o i_o for_o my_o pacificatory_a labour_n 1660._o and_o 1661._o be_v not_o unknown_a 3._o inquire_v whether_o there_o be_v more_o virulent_a and_o voluminous_a accusation_n print_v against_o i_o or_o any_o one_o of_o they_o 4_o i_o have_v have_v no_o p●storal_a maintenance_n these_o 23_o

can_v not_o without_o incivility_n refuse_v 5._o when_o i_o go_v twice_o a_o day_n to_o their_o church_n at_o acton_n i_o be_v send_v to_o the_o common_a gaol_n accuse_v for_o a_o sermon_n for_o meekness_n and_o obedience_n and_o submission_n to_o government_n and_o when_o i_o build_v a_o chapel_n it_o cost_v i_o about_o 20_o l._n to_o get_v a_o minister_n out_o of_o the_o prison_n that_o have_v former_o be_v imprison_v for_o the_o king_n service_n for_o preach_v but_o one_o sermon_n there_o when_o i_o be_v twenty_o mile_n off_o 6._o all_o that_o i_o have_v be_v distrain_v on_o and_o

how_o many_o thousand_o pound_n my_o conscience_n have_v cost_v i_o in_o the_o loss_n of_o a_o bishopric_n by_o the_o lord_n chancellor_n offer_v since_o 1661._o beside_o all_o other_o loss_n and_o
