consider_v how_o our_o non-conformed_a people_n stand_v affect_v who_o can_v bear_v the_o open_a intelligible_a yet_o more_o accurate_a doctrine_n of_o mr._n baxter_n have_v find_v out_o something_o he_o think_v as_o may_v enable_v he_o to_o hold_v the_o truth_n and_o their_o affection_n also_o by_o continue_v the_o phrase_n of_o a_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la which_o he_o will_v have_v think_v even_o by_o we_o to_o be_v allowable_a i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o these_o fair_a seem_o innocent_a smooth_a tempt_a word_n which_o he_o have_v p._n 155._o the_o content_n whereof_o come_v to_o this_o that_o it_o be_v wise_a for_o he_o to_o do_v as_o he_o do_v and_o have_v do_v his_o word_n be_v these_o that_o we_o contend_v with_o he_o only_o because_o he_o will_v not_o join_v with_o we_o in_o offend_v the_o weak_a and_o hazard_v truth_n by_o reject_v a_o phrase_n which_o well_o explaind_v do_v proper_o express_v what_o both_o intend_v unto_o which_o word_n forbear_v the_o falseness_n of_o they_o the_o hazard_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o real_a offence_n in_o his_o notion_n never_o to_o be_v make_v out_o lie_v on_o his_o side_n i_o must_v conscientious_o reply_v these_o two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v that_o here_o be_v word_n indeed_o fair_a but_o god_n look_v through_o they_o the_o other_o be_v that_o i_o will_v therefore_o lay_v down_o this_o rule_n first_o that_o which_o be_v honest_a and_o then_o that_o which_o be_v wise_a mr._n ws._n by_o this_o new-fangled_a notion_n that_o have_v intoxicate_v he_o have_v bring_v such_o a_o perplexity_n on_o the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n to_o himself_o and_o consequent_o to_o other_o if_o any_o go_v to_o confound_v themselves_o in_o follow_v he_o that_o he_o have_v do_v or_o be_v like_a to_o do_v more_o

himself_o full_o and_o whole_o of_o all_o this_o leaven_n with_o which_o he_o have_v leaven_v it_o and_o then_o write_v some_o new_a book_n or_o book_n for_o the_o clear_n himself_o and_o maintain_v the_o doctrine_n he_o be_v otherwise_o engage_v in_o against_o his_o opposer_n without_o it_o 16._o beside_o what_o be_v say_v before_o in_o respect_n to_o the_o brethren_n the_o use_v the_o phrase_n of_o a_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la in_o general_n be_v use_v a_o phrase_n which_o be_v false_a dangerous_a as_o tempt_v to_o antinomianism_n and_o the_o use_v the_o same_o still_o after_o this_o public_a notice_n and_o canvas_n can_v be_v justify_v by_o that_o which_o be_v to_o we_o a_o equivocation_n 17._o before_o i_o give_v my_o last_o reason_n it_o be_v fit_a see_v i_o publish_v this_o letter_n for_o prevent_v of_o that_o prejudice_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o difference_n which_o may_v turn_v to_o the_o diminution_n of_o any_o of_o that_o just_a and_o due_a esteem_n that_o myself_o and_o other_o have_v of_o mr._n ws_n worth_a and_o write_n i_o do_v signify_v that_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o we_o be_v not_o de_fw-fr re_fw-mi but_o de_fw-fr nomine_fw-la only_a there_o be_v nothing_o that_o mr._n baxter_n or_o i_o do_v urge_v against_o a_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la in_o that_o sense_n as_o we_o oppose_v it_o but_o he_o agree_v to_o it_o and_o press_v the_o same_o and_o that_o which_o he_o urge_v or_o have_v invent_v for_o a_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la in_o the_o sense_n which_o be_v his_o peculiar_a it_o be_v not_o by_o i_o gainsay_v so_o that_o the_o matter_n be_v true_a for_o mr._n ws_n write_n be_v not_o romance_n but_o it_o prove_v nothing_o there_o be_v no_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la can_v be_v infer_v from_o it_o and_o see_v his_o notion_n prove_v it_o

you_o write_v this_o book_n against_o he_o i_o answer_v that_o because_o it_o be_v no_o more_o he_o shall_v retract_v it_o the_o phrase_n of_o the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n we_o

by_o no_o mean_n be_v allow_v for_o these_o many_o reason_n mention_v especial_o for_o the_o real_a scandal_n that_o be_v and_o must_v be_v in_o his_o own_o use_n of_o it_o 18._o though_o the_o

who_o all_o be_v against_o the_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la of_o the_o brethren_n he_o and_o some_o partial_a man_n may_v say_v that_o i_o make_v division_n by_o write_v against_o his_o notion_n but_o

shall_v have_v it_o as_o sin_n be_v impute_v to_o be_v punish_v it_o follow_v that_o for_o a_o thing_n then_o to_o be_v a_o man_n and_o to_o be_v impute_v to_o a_o man_n that_o be_v to_o be_v his_o in_o se_fw-mi and_o to_o be_v his_o only_a to_o a_o end_n use_v or_o benefit_n be_v two_o thing_n so_o that_o a_o imputation_n in_o se_fw-la be_v indeed_o a_o impossible_a for_o that_o thing_n which_o be_v diverse_a from_o another_o can_v be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o from_o which_o it_o be_v diverse_a let_v mr._n ws._n then_o hammer_v his_o notion_n as_o much_o as_o long_o and_o how_o he_o

otherwise_o unaware_o in_o any_o book_n myself_o i_o revoke_v it_o last_o mr._n ws._n therefore_o i_o fear_v have_v do_v ill_a either_o ignorant_o or_o wilful_o and_o do_v ill_a upon_o these_o
