that_o whereas_o the_o miracle_n wrought_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n be_v a_o mean_n to_o convert_v the_o jew_n to_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o to_o confirm_v the_o believe_a gentile_n but_o these_o of_o g._n fox_n in_o regard_n he_o wrought_v they_o in_o his_o own_o name_n only_o they_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o shake_v the_o faith_n and_o confidence_n that_o some_o well_o wisher_n to_o we_o have_v of_o our_o religion_n nay_o and_o to_o be_v plain_a many_o among_o we_o begin_v to_o doubt_v of_o they_o and_o to_o think_v they_o too_o like_o the_o popish_a legend_n and_o the_o counterfeit_a miracle_n of_o simon_n magus_n that_o sorcerer_n and_o i_o myself_o be_o almost_o at_o a_o stand_n about_o they_o and_z divers_z other_o of_o his_o assertion_n touch_v himself_o which_o before_o our_o adversary_n quote_v they_o i_o do_v not_o take_v so_o much_o notice_n of_o teacher_n friend_n benjamen_n you_o be_v in_o the_o right_n of_o it_o for_o betwixt_o you_o and_o i_o christ_n never_o wrought_v miracle_n in_o a_o corner_n and_o publish_v they_o 20_o or_o 30_o year_n after_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v but_o in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o world_n before_o multitude_n of_o mix_a people_n friend_n and_o enemy_n witness_v that_o of_o cand_n in_o gallilee_n where_o he_o turn_v water_n into_o wine_n likewise_o his_o feed_v many_o thousand_o with_o a_o few_o barley_n love_v and_o a_o few_o small_a fish_n he_o heal_v all_o manner_n of_o disease_n whether_o the_o disease_n be_v present_a or_o absent_a and_o some_o of_o his_o miracle_n he_o wrought_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o the_o pharasee_n his_o great_a enemy_n find_v fault_n with_o he_o for_o though_o they_o can_v not_o deny_v matter_n of_o fact_n likewise_o his_o follower_n who_o preach_v in_o his_o name_n the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a they_o likewise_o wrought_v miracle_n say_v in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n rise_v up_o and_o walk_v and_o he_o the_o cripple_n walk_v and_o leap_v and_o praise_v god_n clark_n ah_o these_o be_v miracle_n indeed_o but_o this_o fra._n bugg_n make_v the_o world_n believe_v that_o g._n fox_n miracle_n be_v mere_a sham_n lie_v wonder_n and_o delusion_n and_o i_o must_v tell_v thou_o i_o fear_v so_o too_o and_o to_o be_v free_a some_o friend_n though_o they_o dare_v not_o say_v it_o open_o think_v so_o as_o well_o as_o i_o and_o for_o my_o part_n i_o do_v not_o like_v they_o at_o all_o teacher_n like_o they_o who_o can_v i_o be_v at_o a_o friend_n house_n not_o long_o since_o where_o i_o hear_v a_o eminent_a friend_n say_v that_o since_o some_o have_v write_v so_o much_o against_o the_o journal_n and_o miracle_n etc._n etc._n she_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o see_v it_o and_o i_o ask_v she_o how_o she_o like_v it_o she_o say_v she_o do_v not_o like_o it_o at_o all_o and_o indeed_o if_o we_o consider_v a_o few_o thing_n who_o can_v like_v it_o for_o 1._o his_o miracle_n be_v do_v in_o a_o corner_n no_o body_n know_v where_o no●_n when_o otherwise_o than_o by_o his_o own_o relation_n 2._o never_o publish_v till_o many_o year_n after_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v 3._o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o his_o own_o name_n only_o and_o not_o in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n 4._o here_o be_v not_o one_o cripple_n that_o ever_o he_o cure_v nor_o one_o dead_a person_n that_o ever_o he_o raise_v nor_o one_o blind_a that_o ever_o he_o give_v sight_n too_o to_o come_v forth_o and_o avouch_v that_o he_o be_v cure_v be_v raise_v be_v blind_a and_o now_o he_o see_v and_o to_o be_v very_o plain_a i_o do_v believe_v there_o never_o be_v any_o thing_n of_o a_o miracle_n at_o all_o but_o only_o a_o artifice_n to_o hold_v the_o people_n in_o admiration_n of_o g._n fox_n and_o to_o confirm_v they_o in_o the_o belief_n that_o we_o be_v the_o only_a true_a catholic_n church_n of_o the_o first-born_a and_o that_o the_o apostolic_a order_n thereof_o as_o well_o as_o miracle_n be_v restore_v and_o reestablish_v among_o we_o but_o let_v we_o have_v a_o care_n that_o no_o body_n hear_v we_o for_o if_o this_o discourse_n be_v know_v to_o g._n w._n i_o shall_v loose_v my_o place_n and_o you_o may_v be_v in_o danger_n to_o loose_v you_o clark_n but_o pray_v what_o think_v you_o of_o his_o pretence_n to_o discern_v who_o say_v he_o know_v who_o be_v saint_n who_o be_v devil_n and_o who_o be_v apostate_n without_o speak_v ever_o a_o word_n again_o w._n penn_n say_v none_o need_v to_o furnish_v he_o with_o discern_v or_o judgement_n christ_n have_v furnish_v we_o already_o and_o do_v on_o all_o occasion_n teacher_n oh_o friend_n i_o have_v be_v a_o quaker_n more_o than_o 20_o year_n and_o be_o ashamed_a to_o hear_v of_o such_o vain_a boast_n for_o indeed_o if_o we_o be_v always_o thus_o furnish_v with_o discern_v and_o judgement_n on_o all_o occasion_n so_o that_o we_o know_v who_o be_v saint_n devil_n and_o apostate_n without_o speak_v ever_o a_o word_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o sam._n cater_n in_o his_o narrative_a p._n 18._o 19_o be_v so_o mistake_v that_o geo._n fox_n be_v so_o mistake_v in_o thomas_n murford_n ste._n
