authority_n before_o that_o of_o the_o scripture_n which_o be_v down_o right_a popery_n that_o they_o be_v a_o generation_n of_o formal_a heady_a passionate_a immoderate_a man_n that_o make_v it_o their_o business_n not_o practical_o to_o preach_v christ_n crucify_v but_o to_o strengthen_v their_o own_o hierarchy_n they_o be_v injurious_a to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o be_v exceed_o

god_n and_o man_n as_o to_o god_n it_o can_v not_o but_o offend_v the_o great_a god_n of_o peace_n to_o see_v the_o ambassador_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n quarrel_n and_o make_v the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n the_o instrument_n of_o commotion_n and_o disturbance_n as_o for_o man_n it_o can_v not_o but_o offend_v they_o for_o either_o they_o be_v affect_v or_o not_o affect_v to_o the_o

so_o that_o it_o be_v very_o apparent_a that_o mr._n wakeman_n have_v violate_v the_o law_n both_o of_o god_n and_o man_n that_o he_o have_v contrary_a to_o scripture_n and_o reason_n as_o it_o be_v throw_v dirt_n into_o the_o face_n of_o god_n his_o ordinance_n and_o ministry_n prostitute_v the_o dignity_n majesty_n and_o authority_n of_o his_o profession_n and_o make_v it_o cheap_a and_o vile_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n but_o in_o that_o he_o be_v so_o weak_a in_o himself_o let_v we_o see_v whether_o he_o can_v fetch_v any_o strength_n from_o the_o king_n declaration_n which_o he_o urge_v
