they_o have_v they_o and_o i_o appeal_v to_o all_o sober_a reader_n whether_o cotton_n mather_n have_v not_o gross_o pervert_v my_o word_n that_o because_o i_o do_v not_o own_v they_o to_o have_v a_o divine_a power_n of_o exorcism_n whereby_o to_o conjure_v the_o devil_n as_o if_o i_o do_v affirm_v their_o prayer_n be_v a_o conjure_a of_o the_o devil_n which_o instead_o of_o affirm_v i_o strong_o deny_v as_o the_o reader_n may_v see_v in_o my_o book_n call_v a_o refutation_n etc._n etc._n and_o by_o this_o and_o his_o other_o man_n pervertion_n of_o my_o word_n i_o may_v take_v measure_n how_o he_o be_v too_o like_a to_o have_v pervert_v gross_o the_o word_n of_o my_o friend_n in_o his_o allege_a citation_n that_o i_o have_v not_o see_v in_o their_o book_n when_o he_o do_v so_o palpable_o pervert_v my_o word_n to_o a_o plain_a contrary_a sense_n that_o be_v obvious_a to_o they_o of_o the_o weak_a capacity_n nor_o do_v i_o call_v his_o and_o his_o brethren_n prayer_n charm_n and_o spell_n as_o he_o allege_v see_v my_o book_n p._n 71_o 72._o only_a i_o say_v that_o see_v they_o general_o mock_v at_o any_o at_o this_o day_n lay_v claim_n to_o divine_a inspiration_n and_o revelation_n i_o can_v own_v their_o prayer_n to_o be_v true_a they_o be_v like_a to_o charm_n and_o spell_n of_o superstitious_a person_n etc._n etc._n but_o this_o will_v not_o infer_v that_o i_o do_v real_o call_v or_o judge_v they_o charm_n or_o spell_n for_o i_o think_v they_o be_v not_o witch_n except_o in_o that_o sense_n use_v by_o paul_n gal._n 3.1_o because_o they_o bewitch_v not_o the_o body_n but_o the_o soul_n of_o people_n from_o believe_v and_o obey_v the_o truth_n for_o i_o may_v say_v one_o thing_n be_v like_a to_o another_o thing_n and_o yet_o not_o say_v it_o be_v

like_a demetrius_n the_o silver-smith_n who_o accuse_v paul_n because_o he_o and_o his_o brethren_n craft_n be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v set_v at_o naught_o act_v 19.27_o than_o to_o a_o true_a minister_n of_o christ_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o i_o judge_v that_o c.m._n be_v demetrius_n rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a by_o no_o mean_n and_o for_o his_o compare_v i_o to_o alexander_n the_o coppersmith_n it_o be_v foolish_a and_o envious_a i_o honour_v and_o esteem_v high_o both_o paul_n doctrine_n and_o himself_o and_o all_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n of_o the_o

who_o oppose_v paul_n but_o demetrius_n the_o silver-smith_n that_o they_o be_v in_o such_o fear_n their_o craft_n be_v set_v at_o nought_o by_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n else_o why_o do_v they_o make_v such_o a_o stir_n about_o their_o wage_n and_o hire_n whereas_o if_o they_o be_v true_a minister_n of_o christ_n they_o shall_v preach_v his_o gospel_n free_o as_o the_o apostle_n and_o other_o
