against_o the_o assault_n of_o man_n and_o devil_n if_o these_o thing_n seem_v necessary_a to_o any_o man_n it_o will_v also_o seem_v necessary_a to_o that_o man_n to_o admit_v such_o change_n as_o he_o be_v persuade_v will_v conduce_v to_o such_o end_n 8._o end_n p._n 8._o i_o have_v now_o do_v with_o the_o cause_n and_o leave_v it_o to_o any_o man_n who_o read_v his_o book_n and_o this_o whether_o any_o thing_n loose_o and_o scatter_o offer_v in_o the_o one_o have_v not_o have_v its_o full_a force_n fair_o give_v it_o and_o as_o full_a and_o complete_a a_o answer_n return_v to_o it_o by_o the_o other_o but_o i_o have_v a_o word_n or_o two_o of_o friendly_a advice_n to_o our_o author_n before_o i_o have_v do_v with_o he_o as_o a_o part_a civility_n 1._o first_o then_o i_o will_v advise_v he_o not_o to_o speak_v so_o loud_o and_o open_o against_o the_o toleration_n for_o fear_v the_o parliament_n shall_v hear_v he_o as_o he_o do_v upon_o all_o occasion_n tell_v we_o the_o reason_n against_o it_o be_v irrefragable_a that_o it_o use_v to_o be_v grant_v at_o the_o instance_n and_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o profess_a papist_n that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a favour_n than_o be_v grant_v the_o church_n party_n in_o the_o late_a war_n i_o hope_v those_o old_a sore_n have_v be_v heal_v or_o however_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o take_v example_n of_o our_o enemy_n ill_a usage_n and_o cruelty_n to_o revenge_v the_o same_o upon_o they_o the_o papist_n be_v never_o for_o a_o toleration_n of_o protestant_n only_o as_o we_o have_v it_o now_o with_o exclusion_n to_o themselves_o and_o they_o be_v as_o much_o for_o put_v the_o penal_a law_n in_o execution_n at_o one_o time_n as_o they_o be_v for_o toleration_n in_o another_o so_o that_o they_o have_v be_v play_v their_o game_n on_o both_o side_n and_o both_o have_v be_v trick_v by_o they_o but_o with_o submission_n to_o the_o irrefragable_a reason_n of_o the_o parliament_n in_o 1662._o we_o have_v since_o sufficient_o try_v other_o method_n and_o find_v they_o not_o only_o ineffectual_a but_o mischievous_a so_o that_o some_o such_o expedient_a as_o a_o toleration_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a either_o to_o prevent_v on_o one_o side_n the_o scandalous_a unsuccesfull_a prosecution_n of_o weak_a and_o wilful_a man_n or_o on_o the_o other_o the_o king_n be_v illegal_a dispense_n with_o over_o severe_a law_n i_o see_v the_o mischief_n of_o a_o boundless_a and_o unlimited_a toleration_n but_o whether_o the_o mischief_n of_o persecution_n i._n e._n extreme_a penalty_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o religion_n be_v not_o great_a i_o leave_v to_o experience_n and_o the_o judgement_n of_o our_o governor_n to_o determine_v however_o it_o do_v not_o become_v clergyman_n who_o shall_v use_v the_o other_o method_n of_o tenderness_n and_o persuasion_n more_o proper_a to_o the_o gospel_n and_o their_o office_n to_o grudge_v and_o repine_v at_o the_o favour_n of_o the_o state_n to_o those_o who_o differ_v from_o they_o and_o thereby_o discover_v their_o angry_a and_o revengeful_a resentment_n and_o their_o good_a will_n to_o use_v other_o method_n if_o it_o be_v in_o their_o power_n 2._o i_o will_v never_o have_v a_o man_n that_o write_v against_o all_o alteration_n at_o the_o same_o time_n propose_v any_o especial_o such_o strange_a one_o as_o read_n in_o our_o church_n the_o epistle_n of_o ignatius_n and_o

some_o man_n if_o other_o be_v much_o against_o it_o and_o out_o of_o mere_a spite_n to_o the_o design_n of_o alteration_n they_o may_v clog_v the_o bill_n with_o such_o a_o encumbrance_n i_o do_v

thus_o though_o dr._n jane_n be_v a_o very_a worthy_a person_n and_o fill_v both_o the_o professor_n and_o prolocutor_n chair_n very_o well_o and_o graceful_o yet_o why_o he_o and_o his_o neighbour_n

of_o the_o church_n 1._o church_n p._n 1._o as_o if_o the_o choice_n of_o the_o other_o will_v have_v forebode_v some_o mischief_n to_o the_o church_n this_o be_v so_o unmannerly_a rude_a and_o reflect_v that_o it_o require_v the_o temper_n of_o that_o excellent_a man_n to_o forgive_v it_o who_o have_v do_v as_o much_o good_a to_o religion_n and_o the_o church_n as_o half_a a_o convocation_n prolocutor_n and_o all_o but_o i_o perceive_v the_o bottom_n of_o the_o pique_n our_o author_n have_v a_o most_o ill_a opinion_n of_o sermon_n on_o weekday_n lecture_n and_o the_o dean_n have_v be_v a_o preacher_n of_o such_o and_o have_v thereby_o provoke_v some_o but_o teach_v more_o to_o preach_v well_o and_o to_o live_v well_o than_o any_o man_n perhaps_o since_o the_o apostle_n but_o why_o have_v our_o author_n and_o some_o other_o who_o be_v not_o much_o for_o preach_v on_o any_o day_n such_o a_o spite_n against_o sermon_n on_o the_o weekday_n lecture_n why_o he_o tell_v we_o because_o in_o those_o many_o great_a absurdity_n tond_v to_o schism_n and_o sedition_n be_v inject_v into_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o people_n 26._o people_n p._n 26._o and_o can_v they_o be_v as_o well_o inject_v on_o sunday_n lecture_n if_o man_n have_v a_o mind_n as_o well_o as_o on_o weekday_n lecture_n nay_o i_o know_v no_o absolute_a preservative_n but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v inject_v in_o sermon_n on_o sunday_n morning_n as_o well_o as_o at_o any_o other_o time_n if_o the_o preacher_n be_v very_o much_o incline_v to_o it_o i_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n dispute_v with_o our_o author_n whether_o there_o be_v not_o in_o the_o country_n many_o minister_n who_o for_o their_o learning_n may_v be_v without_o disparagement_n compare_v with_o most_o of_o the_o city_n minister_n 15._o
