trial_n be_v to_o take_v they_o up_o into_o mount_n carmel_n where_o elijah_n contend_v with_o baal_n prophet_n we_o may_v there_o observe_v two_o thing_n in_o baal_n prophet_n which_o be_v exact_o parallel_v in_o the_o presbyterian_o 1._o baal_n prophet_n be_v bawl_a prophet_n they_o cry_v out_o and_o prophesy_v from_o morning_n to_o evening_n so_o be_v the_o presbyterian_o witness_v their_o

the_o lord_n for_o it_o be_v a_o fearful_a thing_n when_o man_n sin_n cry_v loud_o for_o judgement_n than_o their_o prayer_n for_o mercy_n and_o when_o the_o hand_n which_o they_o lift_v up_o be_v full_a of_o blood_n 2._o baal_n prophet_n be_v cut_v prophet_n they_o cut_v and_o slash_v themselves_o with_o knife_n and_o lancer_n so_o be_v the_o presbyterian_o witness_n worcester_n fight_v and_o the_o rise_n of_o sir_n george_n booth_n when_o the_o very_a priest_n be_v in_o actual_a arm_n blow_v up_o the_o coal_n of_o division_n among_o we_o which_o be_v no_o other_o than_o to_o make_v the_o body_n politic_a of_o this_o nation_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o baal_n worship_n to_o cut_v and_o wound_v herself_o with_o sword_n and_o instrument_n of_o cruelty_n there_o be_v a_o bless_a sentence_n matthew_n 5.9_o beati_fw-la sunt_fw-la pacifici_fw-la how_o little_a share_n have_v these_o man_n in_o that_o beatitude_n be_v wise_a now_o therefore_o you_o man_n of_o england_n if_o the_o lord_n be_v god_n follow_v he_o but_o if_o baal_n be_v god_n follow_v he_o halt_n no_o long_o between_o two_o opinion_n be_v there_o a_o great_a contradiction_n in_o lord_n bishop_n then_o in_o captain_n parson_n do_v you_o detest_v a_o surplice_n and_o hug_v a_o coat_n of_o mail_n be_v not_o a_o tippet_n more_o decent_a than_o a_o belt_n of_o bandeleer_n be_v not_o david_n music_n more_o pleasant_a than_o that_o of_o drum_n and_o trumpet_n a_o true_a minister_n have_v no_o other_o sword_n save_o that_o of_o the_o spirit_n no_o other_o shield_n save_o that_o of_o faith_n yet_o in_o his_o scrip_n he_o have_v so_o much_o learning_n and_o piety_n as_o like_o the_o smooth_a stone_n of_o the_o brook_n shall_v wound_v the_o brazen_a forehead_n of_o all_o his_o proud_a gainsayer_n but_o beside_o this_o there_o be_v a_o new_a testament_n trial_n they_o who_o be_v the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n obey_v their_o master_n command_n the_o command_n be_v to_o stay_v there_o where_o the_o place_n be_v worthy_a and_o where_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v go_v now_o i_o appeal_v to_o the_o experience_n of_o the_o country_n whether_o or_o no_o the_o presbyterian_o obey_v this_o they_o look_v not_o at_o the_o worth_n of_o the_o people_n but_o at_o the_o value_n of_o the_o yearly_a stipend_n how_o common_a and_o frequent_a be_v it_o to_o see_v some_o covetous_a young_a novice_n place_v among_o worthy_a neighbour_n have_v a_o competent_a allowance_n have_v he_o know_v what_o a_o competence_n be_v but_o hear_v of_o a_o wealthy_a personage_n praesto_n sir_n john_n away_o fly_v he_o and_o leave_v ninive_n to_o go_v to_o tarshish_n it_o be_v therefore_o a_o ingenious_a answer_n of_o a_o north_n country_n man_n to_o mr._n vicar_n who_o ask_v of_o he_o what_o be_v the_o chief_a end_n of_o man_n he_o reply_v to_o run_v from_o a_o small_a benefice_n to_o a_o great_a one_o for_o sure_o that_o have_v be_v the_o end_n of_o these_o son_n of_o belial_n who_o though_o they_o call_v themselves_o the_o ambassador_n of_o christ_n yet_o they_o never_o obey_v their_o commission_n but_o in_o god_n livery_n serve_v mammon_n thus_o we_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o way_n of_o cain_n that_o be_v their_o cruelty_n and_o of_o the_o error_n of_o balaam_n that_o be_v their_o covetousness_n we_o shall_v now_o consider_v the_o gainsay_n of_o korah_n what_o strange_a fire_n do_v they_o offer_v at_o god_n altar_n how_o often_o may_v you_o have_v go_v to_o the_o place_n of_o public_a worship_n and_o hear_v neither_o the_o lord_n prayer_n the_o decalogue_n of_o moses_n nor_o the_o apostle_n creed_n without_o which_o we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o pray_v what_o to_o do_v or_o what_o to_o believe_v our_o saviour_n christ_n teach_v we_o how_o to_o pray_v both_o negative_o and_o positive_o not_o like_o the_o pharisee_n but_o after_o this_o manner_n the_o presbyterian_o pray_v not_o in_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n but_o like_o those_o hippocrite_n use_v vain_a repetition_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v now_o time_n for_o they_o to_o say_v we_o have_v leave_v undo_v those_o thing_n which_o we_o
