book_n as_o sir_n edw._n cook_n observe_v littleton_n fol._n 158._o a._n yet_o that_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o papal_a church_n which_o be_v wont_v to_o doom_n to_o

great_a excommunication_n which_o declare_v the_o person_n so_o excommunicate_v perfect_o wicked_a a_o apostate_n from_o the_o faith_n and_o rule_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n such_o be_v not_o the_o present_a excommunication_n of_o dissenter_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o refuse_v to_o accept_v of_o a_o man_n to_o a_o office_n such_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o

what_o we_o have_v say_v it_o be_v clear_a that_o by_o excommunication_n no_o right_n be_v forfeit_v no_o public_a right_n be_v delay_v not_o state_v right_a be_v prejudice_v that_o the_o right_n of_o suffrage_n be_v the_o right_n of_o the_o person_n and_o also_o the_o right_n of_o the_o community_n that_o at_o this_o day_n sir_n edw._n cook_n seem_v to_o think_v that_o excommunication_n be_v no_o matter_n of_o challenge_n to_o a_o jury_n man_n and_o if_o it_o be_v it_o can_v preclude_v a_o right_n though_o it_o make_v a_o man_n incompetent_a or_o not_o so_o fit_a to_o be_v voluntary_o call_v forth_o and_o prefer_v to_o execute_v a_o charge_n it_o be_v very_o clear_a therefore_o that_o for_o excommunication_n no_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v thrust_v from_o his_o right_n of_o suffrage_n and_o the_o franchise_n of_o a_o citizen_n and_o well_o be_v it_o that_o the_o law_n be_v so_o or_o else_o there_o have_v remain_v a_o lurk_a mischief_n behind_o in_o our_o law_n as_o mischievous_a almost_o

of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o then_o every_o protestant_n must_v immediate_o incur_v excommunication_n now_o if_o thereby_o we_o shall_v loose_v our_o franchise_n and_o the_o right_n of_o

the_o evil_n that_o we_o sustain_v at_o present_a by_o their_o occasion_n will_v not_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o be_v so_o kind_a unto_o they_o but_o let_v we_o not_o make_v hard_a resolution_n against_o ourselves_o when_o we_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o we_o ourselves_o may_v fall_v into_o their_o case_n only_o this_o i_o have_v to_o say_v for_o they_o you_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o be_v

less_o have_v you_o reason_n to_o neglect_v the_o defence_n of_o your_o government_n and_o religion_n because_o they_o adhere_v steady_o to_o it_o but_o if_o they_o have_v not_o so_o behave_v
