those_o who_o take_v offence_n at_o the_o late_a act_n of_o indulgence_n which_o tend_v so_o much_o to_o our_o peace_n by_o quiet_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o people_n as_o to_o their_o religion_n which_o have_v ever_o be_v the_o handle_n to_o our_o intestine_a trouble_n the_o incendiary_n of_o the_o state_n have_v ever_o make_v use_n of_o it_o as_o the_o best_a pretence_n to_o embroyl_n the_o nation_n and_o therefore_o i_o for_o my_o part_n do_v think_v that_o the_o act_n of_o indulgence_n be_v a_o necessary_a and_o pious_a work_n and_o can_v imagine_v why_o any_o man_n shall_v think_v that_o to_o be_v a_o disservice_n to_o the_o church_n that_o tend_v to_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o nation_n they_o who_o do_v so_o i_o must_v believe_v be_v not_o much_o concern_v in_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o chureh_n and_o their_o country_n and_o care_v not_o what_o be_v uppermost_a provide_v they_o can_v but_o make_v fair_a wether_n for_o themselves_o therefore_o gentleman_n if_o any_o speak_v to_o the_o disadvantage_n of_o the_o act_n of_o indulgence_n you_o ought_v to_o present_v they_o as_o disaffect_v to_o the_o government_n and_o sower_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o division_n in_o the_o state_n but_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v right_o understand_v i_o do_v not_o say_v this_o to_o dissuade_v any_o man_n from_o come_v to_o the_o church_n for_o i_o go_v constant_o thither_o myself_o and_o i_o wish_v every_o body_n can_v do_v it_o as_o easy_o as_o i_o do_v and_o i_o wonder_v it_o be_v otherwise_o for_o i_o never_o yet_o hear_v any_o good_a reason_n for_o the_o practise_v the_o contrary_a yet_o i_o think_v unless_o a_o man_n be_v satisfy_v in_o that_o way_n of_o worship_n it_o be_v better_a to_o keep_v away_o than_o to_o come_v for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v to_o mock_v and_o not_o to_o serve_v god_n and_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n it_o be_v no_o less_o a_o mock_n of_o god_n when_o a_o man_n from_o a_o over-assurance_n of_o the_o gift_n of_o prayer_n shall_v adventure_v to_o pray_v in_o public_a without_o have_v beforehand_o well_o digest_v his_o matter_n and_o word_n and_o therefore_o may_v happen_v to_o let_v fall_v crude_a and_o nautious_a expression_n such_o as_o will_v be_v ridiculous_a in_o private_a conversation_n for_o i_o be_o far_o from_o believe_v that_o nonsense_n can_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o fervency_n but_o rather_o of_o affectation_n or_o something_o that_o be_v very_o reprovable_a and_o here_o it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o or_o improper_a to_o take_v notice_n of_o those_o person_n who_o go_v to_o no_o church_n at_o all_o but_o spend_v the_o lord_n day_n common_o call_v sunday_n as_o the_o statute_n have_v it_o in_o a_o alehouse_n or_o otherwise_o idle_a it_o away_o very_o unprofitable_o against_o such_o as_o these_o be_v that_o law_n of_o twelvepence_n a_o sunday_n intend_v and_o be_v it_o due_o put_v in_o execution_n a_o great_a deal_n of_o that_o dishonour_n that_o be_v do_v to_o god_n by_o such_o profanation_n will_v be_v prevent_v and_o the_o poor_a will_v be_v relieve_v with_o less_o charge_n to_o their_o respective_a parish_n i_o wonder_v the_o petty_a constable_n be_v not_o more_o careful_a to_o make_v true_a presentment_n at_o every_o petty_a session_n of_o those_o who_o herein_o offend_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o their_o own_o interest_n be_v so_o near_o i_o may_v say_v so_o immediate_o concern_v the_o next_o thing_n i_o will_v recommend_v to_o you_o be_v as_o far_o as_o in_o you_o lie_v to_o suppress_v that_o horrible_a sin_n of_o customary_a swear_v whereby_o the_o tremendous_a name_n of_o god_n be_v every_o day_n blaspheme_v it_o be_v too_o true_a that_o scarce_o any_o man_n when_o provoke_v or_o in_o passion_n have_v guard_n enough_o over_o himself_o to_o prevent_v his_o take_v the_o holy_a name_n of_o god_n into_o his_o mouth_n and_o if_o any_o of_o we_o fall_v into_o that_o sad_a misfortune_n we_o ought_v solemn_o to_o beg_v forgiveness_n of_o it_o but_o yet_o that_o whereby_o god_n honour_n suffer_v most_o be_v customary_a swear_v when_o man_n do_v not_o think_v they_o express_v themselves_o handsome_o without_o a_o horrible_a oath_n or_o more_o to_o fringe_n off_o their_o sentence_n it_o be_v such_o a_o dare_a familiarity_n with_o god_n almighty_a as_o no_o man_n will_v allow_v to_o his_o best_a friend_n i_o believe_v there_o be_v not_o any_o of_o you_o gentlemen_z but_o will_v be_v very_o angry_a to_o have_v your_o own_o name_n use_v upon_o every_o slight_a and_o trivial_a occasion_n and_o if_o so_o i_o will_v not_o imagine_v that_o you_o will_v be_v less_o concern_v for_o god_n honour_n than_o for_o your_o own_o it_o be_v a_o shameful_a thing_n to_o see_v how_o very_a much_o the_o high_a way_n be_v general_o neglect_v and_o out_o of_o repair_n the_o fault_n of_o which_o do_v most_o lie_n at_o the_o door_n of_o the_o overseer_n who_o chief_a care_n in_o they_o now_o a_o day_n be_v how_o to_o shuffle_v off_o the_o matter_n for_o their_o time_n be_v very_o little_o concern_v for_o what_o come_v after_o they_o and_o by_o this_o mean_v they_o bring_v at_o last_o a_o great_a burden_n upon_o their_o township_n which_o will_v have_v be_v prevent_v by_o a_o small_a charge_n if_o but_o take_v in_o time_n and_o so_o the_o township_n suffer_v through_o their_o neglect_n there_o be_v very_o good_a law_n against_o vagabond_n but_o the_o execution_n of_o they_o be_v shameful_o neglect_v and_o it_o be_v strange_a it_o shall_v be_v so_o consider_v what_o encouragement_n the_o law_n give_v for_o the_o apprehend_n of_o such_o idle_a people_n for_o who_o ever_o bring_v any_o of_o those_o wanderer_n before_o a_o justice_n of_o peace_n the_o town_n through_o which_o they_o last_o pass_v unpunished_a be_v to_o pay_v two_o shilling_n a_o piece_n to_o he_o that_o apprehend_v they_o though_o this_o reward_n carry_v no_o weight_n with_o it_o yet_o the_o great_a mischief_n that_o those_o sort_n of_o people_n bring_v upon_o the_o public_a shall_v make_v every_o body_n vigilant_a it_o be_v a_o incredible_a sum_n that_o they_o cost_v the_o nation_n in_o a_o year_n and_o consider_v how_o many_o township_n and_o parish_n be_v oppress_v and_o almost_o ruin_v by_o the_o accident_n that_o be_v hereby_o bring_v upon_o they_o it_o be_v wonderful_a that_o people_n shall_v rather_o choose_v to_o forswear_v themselves_o than_o do_v their_o duty_n but_o so_o it_o be_v in_o this_o case_n be_v these_o wanderer_n due_o punish_v it_o will_v reform_v many_o of_o they_o and_o discourage_v other_o from_o follow_v so_o bad_a a_o example_n whereas_o the_o great_a remissness_n of_o constable_n and_o other_o officer_n in_o this_o point_n be_v a_o great_a temptation_n to_o many_o who_o otherwise_o will_v think_v of_o some_o
