understand_v that_o they_o intend_v to_o make_v we_o so_o for_o continuance_n and_o perpetuity_n then_o what_o right_o have_v they_o to_o excommunicate_v and_o persecute_v we_o for_o if_o they_o cut_v off_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n either_o by_o excommunication_n or_o persecution_n do_v they_o not_o destroy_v christ_n in_o his_o member_n in_o so_o do_v and_o be_v not_o that_o contrary_a to_o the_o mind_n and_o will_n of_o god_n and_o against_o the_o innocency_n and_o true_a intent_n of_o the_o liturgy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o do_v not_o such_o proceed_n beget_v a_o

and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o the_o bishop_n and_o priest_n do_v promise_n to_o people_n that_o by_o the_o act_n of_o baptism_n so_o call_v they_o do_v regenerate_v their_o child_n and_o do_v thereby_o

england_n can_v baptise_v any_o who_o promise_n and_o pretend_v to_o regenerate_v they_o by_o that_o act_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o do_v not_o and_o see_v that_o by_o the_o liturgy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n the_o church_n be_v declare_v to_o be_v the_o household_n and_o family_n of_o god_n and_o by_o the_o act_n that_o none_o may_v meet_v out_o of_o their_o own_o family_n above_o the_o

the_o church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v govern_v and_o sanctify_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o that_o according_a to_o the_o liturgy_n as_o aforesaid_a be_v it_o not_o evident_a then_o or_o may_v it_o not_o be_v conclude_v that_o by_o the_o say_a act_n there_o be_v a_o toleration_n give_v for_o all_o to_o meet_v together_o who_o be_v under_o the_o administration_n and_o teach_n of_o god_n who_o be_v govern_v and_o sanctify_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o then_o what_o will_v this_o be_v against_o the_o meeting_n of_o the_o quaker_n and_o innocent_a people_n of_o god_n if_o right_o understand_v and_o not_o pervert_v because_o they_o be_v the_o only_a people_n that_o meet_v together_o in_o point_n of_o religion_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n according_a to_o the_o liturgy_n because_o they_o be_v under_o the_o administration_n and_o teach_n of_o god_n and_o be_v govern_v and_o sanctify_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o do_v it_o not_o remain_v true_a that_o those_o who_o be_v prohibit_v by_o the_o act_n to_o meet_v above_o the_o number_n of_o five_o contrary_a to_o the_o liturgy_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n under_o pretence_n of_o religion_n be_v such_o
