the_o special_a gift_n of_o god_n unto_o man_n therefore_o let_v the_o least_o of_o these_o two_o obey_v to_o the_o big_a not_o because_o meat_n of_o itself_o be_v evil_a or_o because_o that_o one_o

then_o to_o do_v with_o a_o other_o man_n weakness_n question_n will_v thou_o that_o i_o forsake_v my_o own_o perfection_n in_o this_o point_n and_o apply_v myself_o to_o a_o weakling_n appetite_n and_o account_v upon_o the_o choice_n of_o meat_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v no_o very_o i_o do_v not_o mean_v so_o neither_o do_v i_o here_o require_v that_o thou_o shall_v so_o follow_v they_o in_o

thy_o might_n &_o strength_n which_o thou_o in_o thy_o perfection_n use_v that_o this_o thy_o strength_n be_v the_o strength_n rather_o of_o thy_o conscience_n and_o not_o of_o fulfil_v thy_o pleasure_n and_o in_o reprehend_v also_o a_o other_o for_o his_o apparent_a superstition_n or_o abstinence_n from_o meat_n thou_o may_v not_o therein_o be_v doubtful_a of_o thyself_o or_o not_o well_o

other_o or_o that_o it_o privy_o condemn_v he_o not_o in_o the_o closet_v of_o his_o breast_n for_o such_o thing_n as_o he_o protest_v abroad_o only_o in_o his_o word_n to_o be_v commendable_a for_o he_o that_o eat_v and_o yet_o doubt_v whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a or_o not_o to_o be_v eat_v he_o be_v certain_o of_o his_o conscience_n pronounce_v a_o condemn_a man_n and_o why_o be_v he_o thereby_o in_o his_o conscience_n condemn_v very_o because_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o do_v proceed_v not_o right_o from_o the_o might_n of_o true_a faith_n and_o constancy_n or_o from_o a_o heart_n that_o of_o itself_o be_v clean_o but_o of_o a_o corrupt_a conscience_n and_o a_o unclean_a heart_n which_o one_o way_n in_o word_n secret_o allow_v and_o otherwise_o open_o in_o deed_n reprove_v for_o what_o so_o ever_o proceed_v not_o of_o faith_n 1._o the_o same_o can_v not_o be_v without_o sin_n but_o offence_n great_o commit_v before_o the_o face_n of_o god_n for_o when_o a_o man_n do_v a_o thing_n that_o of_o itself_o be_v not_o evil_a but_o yet_o dout_v thereof_o whether_o it_o be_v evil_a or_o not_o than_o he_o declare_v plain_o of_o himself_o if_o he_o do_v it_o in_o his_o doubtfulness_n to_o commit_v that_o thing_n even_o wilful_o of_o malice_n that_o be_v worthy_o note_v wicked_a and_o evil_a sure_o perfect_a &_o undoubted_a godliness_n banish_v clean_o from_o it_o all_o such_o thing_n as_o have_v in_o they_o but_o only_o a_o bare_a piece_n &_o similitude_n of_o evil_a thus_o he_o that_o without_o regard_n careless_o offend_v through_o his_o malice_n be_v worthy_a very_o sharp_o to_o be_v reprehend_v and_o he_o also_o that_o will_v not_o conform_v himself_o to_o be_v amend_v be_v of_o the_o godly_a to_o be_v refuse_v &_o as_o a_o enemy_n to_o be_v shake_v off_o and_o avoid_v but_o if_o his_o error_n come_v only_o of_o weakness_n and_o not_o of_o malice_n then_o be_v he_o worthy_a the_o more_o charitable_o to_o be_v teach_v and_o reform_v and_o not_o to_o be_v refuse_v disdain_a or_o once_o laugh_v to_o scorn_v the_o xu_o chapter_n the_o infirmity_n and_o frailness_n of_o the_o weak_a aught_o to_o be_v bear_v with_o all_o love_n and_o

yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o must_v always_o beware_v lest_o while_o we_o reprehend_v they_o for_o their_o superstition_n we_o ourselves_o do_v fall_v into_o the_o hateful_a vice_n of_o pride_n which_o be_v much_o more_o worthy_a detestation_n than_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o reprehend_v in_o other_o but_o always_o the_o more_o strong_a we_o feel_v ourselves_o to_o be_v the_o more_o

give_v unto_o they_o but_o as_o all_o they_o that_o in_o their_o body_n be_v strong_a than_o the_o other_o will_v esteem_v it_o a_o reproachful_a thing_n to_o hurt_v such_o as_o be_v but_o weak_a &_o of_o far_o less_o strength_n even_o so_o all_o we_o the_o more_o through_o grace_n we_o exceed_v other_o in_o spiritual_a judgement_n and_o true_a doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n so_o much_o the_o more_o ought_v we_o to_o temper_v ourselves_o to_o the_o weakness_n of_o other_o and_o not_o to_o glory_v therein_o or_o to_o stand_v in_o our_o own_o conceit_n nether_a in_o their_o imbecility_n &_o weakness_n to_o stir_v they_o rather_o into_o fury_n and_o rage_n than_o patient_o to_o bear_v with_o they_o or_o else_o gentle_o to_o amend_v they_o let_v no_o man_n therefore_o in_o the_o good_a
