lyen_fw-we in_o the_o dust_n and_o have_v trust_v god_n with_o our_o name_n there_o be_v indeed_o a_o great_a complaint_n in_o the_o world_n that_o they_o know_v not_o what_o we_o will_v have_v yet_o ingenuous_a brethren_n in_o the_o assembly_n have_v profess_v that_o they_o understand_v what_o we_o will_v have_v as_o well_o as_o ourselves_o so_o clear_o have_v we_o be_v in_o discover_v our_o

if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o we_o will_v have_v it_o be_v soon_o tell_v you_o 1._o we_o will_v have_v the_o roll_a power_n of_o minister_n not_o to_o extend_v further_o than_o their_o pastoral_a charge_n over_o their_o people_n for_o the_o feed_n of_o they_o by_o the_o word_n &_o sacrament_n 2._o we_o will_v have_v the_o saint_n separate_v from_o the_o world_n not_o in_o a_o negative_a way_n

that_o all_o that_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v member_n that_o do_v cohabit_v do_v join_v as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v 3._o we_o will_v have_v no_o coactive_a violence_n use_v against_o such_o man_n who_o

while_o man_n think_v there_o be_v no_o way_n for_o peace_n but_o by_o force_v all_o to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o mind_n while_o they_o think_v the_o civil_a sword_n be_v a_o ordinance_n appoint_v by_o god_n to_o determine_v all_o controversy_n in_o divinity_n and_o that_o man_n must_v needs_o be_v chain_v together_o by_o fine_n and_o imprisonment_n or_o else_o there_o can_v be_v no_o peace_n that_o except_o all_o man_n be_v of_o the_o same_o mind_n themselves_o be_v of_o all_o will_v come_v to_o confusion_n whilst_o these_o principle_n prevail_v with_o man_n either_o there_o must_v be_v a_o base_a subjection_n of_o man_n conscience_n to_o slavery_n a_o suppression_n of_o much_o truth_n whilst_o they_o seek_v to_o suppress_v error_n or_o else_o exceed_v disturbance_n in_o the_o

for_o these_o be_v certain_o the_o disturber_n of_o our_o peace_n but_o those_o who_o shall_v find_v out_o some_o expedient_a whereby_o conscience_n may_v not_o be_v enslave_v truth_n not_o suppress_v

such_o for_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n upon_o such_o and_o their_o endeavour_n i_o shall_v not_o cease_v to_o pray_v who_o be_o desirous_a of_o nothing_o more_o than_o truth_n and_o peace_n but_o the_o lord_n rebuke_v turbulent_a and_o violent_a spirit_n but_o see_v you_o mention_v a_o committee_n of_o lord_n and_o commons_o for_o accommodation_n why_o do_v not_o you_o join_v in_o a_o way_n of_o accommodation_n with_o your_o brethren_n nothing_o will_v satisfy_v you_o but_o a_o toleration_n answ_n before_o there_o be_v any_o rule_n establish_v we_o labour_v what_o we_o can_v for_o
