of_o the_o private_a to_o need_v a_o comment_n for_o how_o only_o in_o a_o word_n shall_v that_o body_n whether_o natural_a or_o political_a be_v preserve_v safe_a and_o entire_a if_o the_o hand_n

for_o man_n immediate_o to_o fall_v foul_a upon_o one_o another_o integrity_n to_o charge_v the_o difference_n of_o persuasion_n and_o practice_n observable_a among_o we_o upon_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o mind_n and_o the_o depravity_n of_o our_o heart_n be_v to_o assail_v one_o another_o in_o the_o most_o quick_a and_o sensible_a part_n and_o to_o set_v we_o at_o a_o irreconcilable_a distance_n the_o heart_n and_o intention_n be_v that_o grand_a lead_a principle_n by_o which_o as_o the_o great_a searcher_n of_o heart_n will_v judge_v all_o man_n hereafter_o so_o likewise_o that_o too_o by_o which_o they_o ought_v principal_o to_o stand_v or_o fall_v in_o the_o estimate_n of_o their_o fellow-servant_n here_o and_o therefore_o not_o rude_o to_o be_v assault_v without_o the_o keen_a resentment_n let_v we_o not_o therefore_o if_o we_o have_v any_o sense_n of_o moderation_n and_o temper_n persist_v to_o dress_v up_o thing_n in_o shape_n that_o for_o aught_o we_o know_v belong_v not_o to_o they_o in_o hideous_a and_o portentous_a form_n to_o frighten_v and_o exasperate_v one_o another_o but_o let_v we_o rather_o ascribe_v the_o difference_n among_o we_o to_o error_n of_o judgement_n the_o prejudices_fw-la of_o education_n infelicity_n of_o constitution_n or_o to_o any_o other_o of_o those_o either_o innocent_a or_o excusable_a cause_n which_o render_v a_o entire_a unity_n of_o opinion_n a_o impossible_a thing_n but_o do_v we_o by_o any_o mean_v set_v up_o for_o searcher_n of_o heart_n and_o peremptory_o judge_v of_o man_n in_o reference_n to_o their_o future_a state_n we_o know_v who_o great_a attribute_n that_o be_v and_o to_o he_o their_o own_o master_n as_o to_o that_o particular_a must_v every_o man_n stand_v or_o fall_v who_o be_v thou_o that_o invade_v this_o mighty_a prerogative_n and_o that_o thus_o arrogant_o judge_v another_o man_n servant_n 7_o another_o rule_n of_o the_o christian_a moderation_n i_o speak_v of_o i_o take_v to_o be_v this_o not_o to_o charge_v the_o fault_n or_o failure_n of_o particular_a person_n either_o upon_o whole_a party_n or_o their_o persuasion_n for_o as_o to_o to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o it_o be_v a_o open_a breach_n of_o justice_n charity_n and_o logic_n all_o at_o once_o it_o be_v against_o the_o know_a rule_n of_o reason_v to_o argue_v from_o a_o lame_a induction_n of_o particular_n to_o universals_z for_o in_o that_o case_n there_o be_v more_o in_o the_o conclusion_n than_o be_v in_o the_o premise_n which_o be_v a_o fallacy_n and_o not_o to_o be_v admit_v st._n jude_n rule_n therefore_o of_o make_v a_o difference_n must_v take_v place_n here_o and_o that_o will_v set_v we_o right_n nor_o be_v it_o second_o any_o more_o justifiable_a to_o load_v the_o several_a cause_n man_n may_v chance_v to_o maintain_v with_o the_o exorbitancy_n or_o irregularity_n of_o their_o particular_a abetter_n in_o as_o much_o as_o there_o be_v no_o necessary_a connexion_n betwixt_o truth_n and_o error_n in_o the_o understanding_n and_o rectitude_n and_o obliquity_n in_o the_o will_n we_o must_v not_o then_o argue_v from_o person_n to_o cause_n for_o as_o to_o instance_n we_o read_v of_o several_a heretic_n of_o old_a who_o life_n be_v as_o pure_a and_o unblameable_a as_o their_o error_n be_v gross_a and_o pernicious_a so_o what_o be_v but_o a_o melancholy_a consideration_n we_o need_v not_o go_v far_o for_o instance_n of_o those_o who_o life_n be_v as_o scandalous_a as_o their_o communion_n be_v orthodox_n 8_o another_o rule_n of_o the_o moderation_n i_o will_v persuade_v to_o be_v not_o to_o engage_v in_o any_o needless_a contest_v and_o dispute_v about_o these_o lesser_a matter_n according_a to_o the_o advice_n of_o the_o great_a apostle_n in_o
