against_o the_o government_n may_v be_v rather_o to_o tell_v some_o people_n news_n than_o that_o which_o they_o do_v believe_v because_o we_o have_v already_o hear_v of_o many_o discovery_n of_o

government_n plot_n sometime_o be_v not_o prosecute_v either_o because_o of_o the_o great_a indulgence_n of_o the_o government_n be_v desirous_a to_o gain_v people_n rather_o by_o mercy_n than_o by_o be_v too_o extreme_a to_o mark_v what_o be_v do_v amiss_o or_o it_o may_v be_v because_o the_o government_n have_v a_o more_o than_o ordinary_a tenderness_n for_o that_o sort_n of_o people_n or_o it_o may_v be_v because_o some_o of_o

thing_n that_o he_o have_v reprove_v and_o punish_v in_o another_o this_o judge_v the_o thing_n by_o the_o person_n be_v that_o by_o which_o man_n common_o deceive_v themselves_o so_o very_o much_o or_o else_o they_o will_v make_v a_o right_a judgement_n than_o for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o do_v how_o happy_a be_v that_o prince_n than_o whilst_o he_o be_v on_o this_o side_n the_o grave_a and_o how_o glorious_a will_v be_v his_o memory_n who_o be_v not_o afraid_a or_o shy_a even_o to_o have_v his_o action_n examine_v that_o mankind_n as_o well_o as_o his_o own_o conscience_n may_v bear_v he_o testimony_n that_o he_o govern_v according_a to_o law_n and_o make_v the_o good_a of_o his_o people_n the_o end_n of_o his_o government_n before_o i_o proceed_v any_o further_a i_o will_v be_v right_o understand_v in_o what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v because_o possible_o either_o through_o mistake_n or_o through_o malice_n some_o may_v infer_v that_o i_o will_v persuade_v you_o to_o take_v more_o care_n of_o your_o liberty_n than_o of_o your_o religion_n by_o reason_n that_o i_o have_v say_v so_o much_o of_o the_o former_a but_o far_o be_v so_o atheistical_a a_o thought_n from_o i_o i_o bless_v god_n it_o never_o yet_o enter_v into_o my_o heart_n although_o i_o be_o not_o so_o religious_a as_o i_o ought_v to_o be_v yet_o i_o think_v our_o religion_n to_o be_v more_o valuable_a than_o any_o other_o thing_n whatever_o for_o if_o god_n shall_v take_v away_o the_o light_n of_o his_o gospel_n from_o we_o it_o will_v be_v the_o severe_a judgement_n that_o he_o can_v visit_v we_o with_o and_o therefore_o i_o have_v press_v you_o to_o take_v care_n of_o your_o liberty_n as_o the_o sure_a mean_n by_o which_o you_o can_v preserve_v your_o religion_n and_o in_o so_o do_v i_o conceive_v i_o have_v show_v a_o zeal_n for_o rather_o than_o a_o neglect_v of_o it_o it_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v by_o all_o those_o who_o desire_v the_o peace_n of_o their_o country_n that_o religion_n be_v more_o in_o fashion_n among_o we_o than_o it_o be_v for_o no_o nation_n do_v ever_o thrive_v where_o it_o be_v neglect_v and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o god_n will_v have_v a_o controversy_n with_o this_o land_n if_o swear_v and_o drink_v which_o be_v now_o become_v so_o common_a be_v not_o speedy_o suppress_v and_o the_o corrupt_a manner_n of_o the_o nation_n reform_v but_o before_o i_o speak_v more_o particular_o upon_o they_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o observe_v something_o to_o you_o upon_o two_o thing_n which_o be_v very_o injurious_a to_o religion_n and_o yet_o be_v do_v out_o of_o a_o pretend_a care_n and_o tenderness_n for_o it_o the_o first_o be_v when_o protestant_n break_v into_o several_a sect_n and_o distinct_a congregation_n and_o not_o be_v content_a with_o worship_v god_n in_o their_o own_o way_n be_v uneasy_a at_o all_o other_o who_o follow_v not_o with_o they_o every_o one_o be_v so_o assure_v that_o they_o be_v not_o mistake_v that_o they_o will_v not_o allow_v any_o but_o themselves_o to_o be_v in_o the_o right_n and_o therefore_o leave_v the_o excellent_a rule_n of_o charity_n to_o follow_v a_o blind_a infallibility_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o whilst_o we_o be_v upon_o earth_n we_o shall_v have_v different_a sentiment_n and_o opinion_n and_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o we_o to_o help_v it_o because_o our_o reason_n be_v too_o shortsighted_a and_o purblind_a but_o yet_o we_o may_v all_o agree_v to_o have_v a_o mutual_a charity_n for_o one_o another_o and_o then_o every_o man_n will_v be_v the_o better_a for_o his_o religion_n and_o no_o body_n will_v be_v the_o worse_a for_o it_o for_o otherwise_o instead_o of_o promote_a religion_n we_o eat_v out_o the_o bowel_n of_o it_o that_o be_v we_o destroy_v that_o charity_n without_o which_o we_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o alas_o it_o be_v come_v to_o this_o that_o one_o be_v for_o paul_n another_o for_o apollo_n and_o another_o for_o cephas_n one_o ask_v of_o such_o a_o one_o be_v he_o a_o true_a son_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n a_o second_o inquire_v whether_o he_o be_v of_o such_o a_o congregation_n a_o three_o demand_n to_o know_v if_o he_o follow_v such_o a_o man_n if_o so_o all_o be_v well_o and_o with_o they_o he_o must_v pass_v for_o a_o good_a man_n without_o examine_v into_o his_o life_n and_o moral_n but_o what_o do_v all_o this_o amount_v to_o be_o i_o the_o better_a for_o be_v of_o such_o a_o man_n opinion_n or_o of_o such_o a_o communion_n unless_o i_o be_o a_o doer_n as_o well_o as_o a_o

the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o that_o end_n do_v daily_o try_v and_o examine_v himself_o he_o will_v find_v himself_o to_o be_v more_o amiss_o therein_o than_o he_o can_v discover_v

which_o be_v injurious_a to_o religion_n be_v when_o the_o discipline_n and_o government_n of_o the_o church_n interfere_v with_o the_o state_n break_v into_o the_o method_n and_o foundation_n of_o it_o to_o advance_v the_o power_n and_o greatness_n of_o the_o clergy_n this_o soon_o become_v mischievous_a to_o religion_n for_o as_o it_o do_v in_o no_o sort_n promote_v god_n glory_n or_o tend_v to_o the_o reform_v of_o man_n manner_n so_o when_o the_o people_n find_v their_o liberty_n crowd_v to_o make_v elbow-room_n for_o the_o clergy_n and_o that_o the_o government_n of_o the_o church_n
