A80408	Redintegratio amoris, or A union of hearts, between the Kings most excellent Majesty, the Right Honorable the Lords and Commons in Parliament, His Excellency Sir Thomas Fairfax, and the Army under his command; the Assembly, and every honest man that desires a sound and durable peace, accompanied with speedy justice and piety. By way of respective apologies, so far as Scripture and reason may be judges. / By John Cook of Grayes-Inne, Barrester.

defendendo_fw-la for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o think_v that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a but_o a_o thing_n most_o necessary_a that_o if_o these_o seventeen_o man_n shall_v suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v imprison_v for_o their_o conscience_n by_o their_o captain_n and_o two_o other_o that_o god_n will_v be_v angry_a with_o they_o for_o be_v so_o unnatural_a and_o unjust_a to_o themselves_o but_o then_o the_o question_n will_v be_v if_o the_o captain_n and_o seventeen_o shall_v be_v of_o one_o opinion_n and_o the_o other_o two_o contrary_n mind_v and_o the_o eighteen_o make_v it_o capital_a and_o condemn_v the_o other_o two_o for_o heretic_n whether_o may_v the_o other_o two_o resist_v in_o this_o case_n i_o answer_v they_o may_v save_v themselves_o by_o flight_n if_o they_o can_v but_o for_o two_o to_o take_v up_o arm_n against_o the_o eighteen_o i_o be_o doubtful_a whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a at_o least_o convenient_a because_o there_o be_v no_o probable_a hope_n of_o success_n and_o it_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n that_o these_o two_o shall_v suffer_v patient_o what_o they_o can_v help_v and_o this_o will_v fall_v within_o that_o excellent_a rule_n of_o two_o evil_n the_o least_o be_v to_o be_v choose_v the_o two_o be_v sure_a to_o lose_v their_o life_n therefore_o they_o must_v suffer_v patient_o rather_o than_o to_o endanger_v the_o life_n of_o other_o with_o they_o for_o the_o god_n of_o peace_n do_v not_o delight_n in_o war_n and_o then_o a_o evil_n be_v judge_v to_o be_v inevitable_a when_o there_o be_v no_o apparent_a ordinary_a way_n to_o avoid_v it_o because_o without_o a_o extraordinary_a warrant_n we_o may_v not_o presume_v of_o god_n extraordinary_a power_n and_o assistance_n as_o if_o a_o honest_a man_n with_o a_o sword_n be_v set_v upon_o by_o two_o thief_n with_o pistol_n now_o in_o this_o case_n i_o hold_v it_o wisdom_n to_o deliver_v his_o purse_n to_o save_v his_o life_n because_o two_o be_v strong_a than_o one_o

nature_n may_v probable_o effect_v if_o not_o check_v when_o god_n say_v this_o shall_v be_v because_o i_o will_v not_o hinder_v it_o than_o nature_n of_o its_o own_o nature_n produce_v such_o effect_n what_o king_n with_o a_o thousand_o will_v fight_v against_o he_o that_o come_v with_o ten_o thousand_o and_o as_o the_o use_n of_o lawful_a mean_n for_o safety_n do_v not_o argue_v a_o confidence_n in_o the_o creature_n but_o a_o subordination_n of_o the_o mean_n that_o god_n without_o mean_n can_v do_v it_o but_o mean_n without_o god_n can_v do_v it_o yet_o sometime_o god_n put_v more_o strength_n then_o ordinary_a into_o the_o creature_n and_o act_n more_o immediate_o by_o ten_o sometime_o chase_v a_o thousand_o therefore_o i_o pass_v it_o over_o but_o my_o meaning_n be_v that_o a_o war_n for_o desence_n of_o religion_n be_v unquestionable_a but_o the_o manner_n be_v always_o to_o be_v ponder_v and_o that_o in_o any_o kingdom_n or_o state_n where_o such_o a_o
