of_o fact_n be_v person_n meet_v under_o colour_n and_o pretence_n of_o religion_n whereby_o it_o plain_o appear_v they_o intend_v not_o to_o punish_v those_o that_o have_v no_o other_o intention_n in_o their_o religious_a exercise_n but_o what_o appear_v but_o such_o as_o only_o pretend_v religion_n for_o seditious_a end_n to_o such_o indeed_o where_o that_o seditious_a mind_n be_v discover_v and_o manifest_a the_o punishment_n may_v be_v proportionate_a but_o for_o person_n that_o have_v no_o other_o intention_n in_o meet_v or_o at_o least_o in_o who_o no_o other_o intention_n can_v any_o way_n be_v make_v manifest_a but_o to_o please_v god_n and_o satisfy_v their_o own_o conscience_n for_o they_o to_o be_v punish_v in_o this_o manner_n be_v like_a as_o if_o a_o parent_n shall_v banish_v one_o of_o his_o child_n out_o of_o his_o presence_n and_o from_o his_o table_n into_o jamaica_n or_o barbados_n to_o be_v educate_v among_o his_o cowherd_n and_o hog-herd_n for_o seven_o year_n because_o he_o have_v a_o weak_a stomach_n and_o can_v eat_v the_o wholesome_a food_n of_o the_o other_o child_n therefore_o it_o be_v whole_o to_o be_v hold_v that_o either_o this_o be_v not_o the_o punishment_n or_o that_o be_v not_o the_o offence_n for_o there_o be_v no_o proportion_n between_o they_o again_o how_o can_v it_o be_v imagine_v the_o parliament_n will_v forbid_v all_o religious_a meeting_n save_v at_o the_o parish_n church_n because_o thirty_o man_n once_o come_v out_o of_o such_o a_o meeting_n to_o make_v a_o sedition_n and_o tumult_n can_v any_o man_n suppose_v that_o insurrection_n be_v contrive_v in_o a_o meeting_n of_o eighty_o or_o a_o hundred_o people_n of_o all_o sort_n man_n woman_n and_o child_n sure_o no_o state_n or_o kingdom_n need_v fear_v such_o

therefore_o be_v prohibit_v for_o man_n to_o come_v together_o upon_o any_o occasion_n whatsoever_o in_o any_o number_n you_o will_v say_v this_o can_v be_v for_o it_o will_v destroy_v trading_n and_o

may_v meet_v at_o the_o parish_n church_n for_o religious_a society_n but_o i_o have_v show_v before_o that_o many_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o religion_n which_o can_v be_v do_v there_o

that_o you_o can_v neither_o consent_n with_o they_o nor_o do_v as_o they_o do_v but_o can_v you_o take_v your_o oath_n that_o they_o err_v malicious_o can_v you_o venture_v your_o eternal_a

whether_o the_o gatehouse_n or_o hell_n be_v worse_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o better_a to_o trust_v god_n with_o a_o good_a conscience_n than_o to_o trust_v the_o devil_n with_o a_o bad_a one_o if_o thou_o do_v believe_v that_o god_n rule_v the_o world_n that_o he_o favour_v and_o bless_v the_o righteous_a and_o punish_v the_o wicked_a both_o in_o this_o world_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o
