A93905	Sir, you may perceive by the inclosed brief for rebuilding the cathedral church of St. Paul ...	Stillingfleet, Edward, 1635-1699.	1678 (1678)	Wing S5668; ESTC R42881	5,593	4

of_o the_o city_n have_v always_o resort_v and_o where_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n have_v be_v more_o solemn_o perform_v and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n set_v forth_o by_o preacher_n choose_v out_o from_o the_o university_n and_o all_o part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n to_o the_o great_a honour_n as_o well_o as_o satisfaction_n of_o this_o city_n and_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v forget_v that_o the_o emulous_a city_n to_o this_o for_o trade_n and_o riches_n have_v not_o only_o build_v a_o stathouse_n but_o a_o magnificent_a church_n too_o at_o their_o own_o charge_n and_o it_o will_v be_v no_o great_a reputation_n to_o london_n to_o fall_v so_o much_o short_a of_o amsterdam_n in_o zeal_n for_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n but_o why_o shall_v the_o burden_n lie_v on_o the_o city_n which_o have_v suffer_v so_o much_o of_o late_a by_o a_o dreadful_a fire_n this_o be_v indeed_o a_o terrible_a objection_n if_o it_o have_v be_v make_v in_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o city_n but_o thanks_o be_v to_o the_o wonderful_a providence_n of_o god_n almighty_n we_o have_v live_v to_o see_v the_o city_n rise_v with_o a_o splendour_n and_o greatness_n so_o far_o surpass_v whatever_o it_o have_v before_o that_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o build_v the_o house_n of_o god_n in_o a_o way_n suitable_a to_o the_o present_a grandeur_n of_o the_o city_n i_o do_v not_o think_v that_o in_o all_o respect_v the_o prophet_n argument_n will_v reach_v our_o case_n be_v it_o time_n for_o you_o o_o you_o to_o dwell_v in_o your_o ciel_v house_n and_o this_o house_n lie_v waste_a but_o yet_o methinks_v those_o who_o have_v already_o lay_v out_o so_o many_o thousand_o on_o a_o monument_n of_o the_o dreadful_a fire_n shall_v think_v themselves_o as_o much_o concern_v to_o contribute_v free_o towards_o a_o monument_n of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o city_n after_o it_o and_o what_o can_v be_v more_o proper_a for_o that_o that_o the_o re-building_n st._n paul_n last_o those_o who_o have_v nothing_o else_o to_o object_n against_o this_o work_n find_v fault_n with_o the_o season_n as_o very_o ill_o choose_v by_o we_o when_o so_o many_o burden_n and_o tax_n lie_v already_o on_o the_o city_n and_o man_n be_v still_o afraid_a of_o more_o as_o though_o the_o season_n be_v of_o our_o own_o choose_n whereas_o the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o case_n be_v this_o as_o long_o as_o our_o stock_n hold_v out_o any_o way_n proportionable_o to_o the_o expense_n we_o go_v on_o cheerful_o and_o with_o great_a diligence_n and_o we_o may_v say_v it_o without_o vanity_n the_o stock_n we_o have_v have_v be_v manage_v with_o as_o much_o care_n and_o good_a husbandry_n as_o of_o any_o public_a buildng_n whatsoever_o but_o when_o we_o find_v that_o we_o can_v not_o carry_v on_o the_o work_n without_o far_a supply_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v shall_v we_o let_v the_o work_n stand_v still_o without_o try_v other_o way_n then_o we_o may_v have_v just_o suffer_v under_o the_o clamour_n which_o will_v have_v be_v make_v against_o we_o that_o the_o work_n may_v have_v go_v on_o if_o we_o have_v not_o be_v careless_a and_o negligent_a that_o the_o city_n will_v no_o doubt_n give_v very_o considerable_a supply_n if_o they_o be_v but_o ask_v that_o in_o the_o former_a repair_v the_o chamber_n of_o london_n give_v two_o hundred_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la for_o ten_o year_n beside_o the_o liberal_a contribution_n of_o the_o alderman_n and_o of_o the_o ward_n and_o company_n that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v suppose_v the_o city_n shall_v be_v less_o able_a or_o less_o willing_a than_o it_o be_v at_o that_o time_n that_o a_o very_a easy_a rate_n upon_o the_o new-built_a and_o inhabit_a house_n will_v serve_v to_o sinish_v the_o choir_n that_o but_o a_o four_o part_n of_o the_o rate_n for_o the_o poor_a in_o all_o the_o parish_n of_o england_n will_v go_v very_o far_o towards_o the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n that_o no_o citizen_n of_o london_n will_v ever_o refuse_v do_v something_o towards_o it_o that_o at_o least_o it_o be_v but_o our_o try_v this_o way_n and_o if_o it_o do_v not_o succeed_v we_o need_v not_o doubt_v at_o last_o of_o the_o kindness_n both_o of_o king_n and_o parliament_n upon_o such_o discourse_n as_o these_o it_o be_v think_v fit_a by_o the_o commissioner_n to_o make_v a_o address_n to_o his_o majesty_n for_o authority_n to_o gather_v contribution_n which_o out_o of_o his_o royal_a clemency_n and_o great_a readiness_n to_o promote_v this_o work_n he_o be_v please_v to_o grant_v we_o and_o now_o the_o time_n be_v unseasonable_a as_o though_o it_o be_v ever_o otherwise_o to_o those_o who_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o it_o but_o be_v it_o ever_o unseasonable_a to_o do_v praiseworthy_a pious_a and_o generous_a action_n we_o do_v not_o desire_v man_n to_o impoverish_v themselves_o to_o rebuild_a st._n paul_n but_o to_o give_v free_o and_o cheerful_o and_o in_o such_o a_o proportion_n as_o other_o public_a occasion_n will_v permit_v and_o as_o will_v be_v no_o hindrance_n to_o the_o concernment_n of_o their_o trade_n or_o family_n for_o our_o fear_n of_o future_a burden_n and_o trouble_n can_v we_o do_v better_a to_o prevent_v they_o than_o to_o be_v full_a of_o good_a work_n and_o if_o we_o be_v as_o full_a of_o trouble_n as_o we_o be_v of_o fear_n we_o may_v remember_v that_o the_o city_n
