but_o this_o be_v only_o to_o understand_v the_o action_n and_o ceremony_n not_o the_o word_n and_o can_v answer_v the_o end_n of_o public_a prayer_n which_o be_v to_o offer_v up_o our_o common_a petition_n to_o god_n with_o one_o heart_n and_o mind_n the_o use_n of_o word_n in_o public_a prayer_n be_v to_o direct_v and_o determine_v our_o thought_n and_o to_o excite_v our_o affection_n for_o this_o reason_n the_o priest_n read_v the_o prayer_n with_o a_o audible_a voice_n that_o all_o the_o people_n may_v join_v with_o he_o and_o these_o indeed_o be_v public_a and_o common_a prayer_n but_o now_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o priest_n read_v the_o prayer_n but_o the_o people_n do_v not_o join_v with_o he_o because_o they_o do_v not_o understand_v he_o but_o the_o most_o they_o can_v do_v be_v by_o action_n and_o ceremony_n to_o guess_v at_o what_o part_n of_o the_o service_n he_o be_v and_o either_o only_a look_n on_o or_o if_o they_o be_v very_o devout_a entertain_v

of_o the_o church_n but_o only_o to_o see_v what_o the_o priest_n do_v which_o at_o best_a can_v only_o fill_v they_o with_o some_o religious_a amusement_n or_o with_o confuse_a and_o indistinct_a and_o enthusiastic_a devotion_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o devotion_n of_o the_o people_n be_v leave_v to_o their_o own_o extempore_o conceit_n which_o be_v a_o

he_o can_v never_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v so_o and_o whatever_o church_n or_o church_n have_v corrupt_v the_o faith_n and_o worship_n of_o christ_n we_o shall_v make_v no_o scruple_n at_o all_o to_o

she_o reform_v those_o error_n in_o doctrine_n and_o corruption_n in_o worship_n which_o she_o former_o be_v guilty_a of_o this_o charge_n we_o ready_o own_o but_o deny_v that_o this_o be_v schism_n of_o separation_n from_o the_o catholic_n church_n for_o till_o our_o author_n can_v prove_v that_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n consist_v in_o subjection_n to_o the_o bishop_n of_o

there_o shall_v be_v any_o such_o divine_a office_n in_o public_a worship_n which_o the_o people_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o join_v in_o methinks_v the_o apostle_n argument_n against_o speak_v in_o a_o

understand_v by_o the_o people_n who_o be_v to_o be_v edify_v by_o it_o the_o apostle_n argument_n against_o these_o inspire_a tongue_n be_v not_o good_a for_o if_o our_o author_n have_v be_v

but_o let_v those_o understand_v who_o can_v and_o if_o no_o body_n understand_v it_o what_o hurt_n do_v it_o do_v nay_o the_o exercise_n of_o such_o extraordinary_a gift_n do_v edify_v those_o who_o see_v and_o hear_v though_o they_o do_v not_o understand_v and_o when_o the_o spirit_n inspire_v man_n to_o speak_v in_o unknown_a tongue_n we_o have_v reason_n to_o think_v that_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o intend_v that_o every_o one_o shall_v understand_v they_o and_o that_o be_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o exercise_n of_o such_o gift_n be_v very_o fit_v though_o they_o be_v not_o understand_v let_v our_o author_n try_v now_o how_o he_o can_v justify_v st._n paul_n argument_n against_o unknown_a though_o inspire_v tongue_n upon_o the_o principle_n which_o he_o have_v lay_v down_o that_o the_o people_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o join_v in_o all_o the_o office_n of_o public_a worship_n that_o any_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v in_o public_a worship_n which_o be_v not_o for_o public_a edification_n or_o let_v he_o try_v if_o he_o can_v say_v half_a so_o much_o for_o such_o settle_a form_n of_o divine_a office_n as_o people_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o join_v in_o and_o therefore_o not_o bind_v to_o understand_v as_o may_v be_v plead_v for_o the_o occasional_a exercise_n of_o miraculous_a and_o inspire_a gift_n in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n and_o if_o he_o can_v than_o this_o answer_n he_o give_v about_o such_o office_n as_o people_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o join_v in_o be_v a_o better_a answer_n to_o st._n paul_n than_o it_o be_v to_o protestant_n a_o much_o better_a vindication_n of_o the_o exercise_n of_o such_o unknown_a tongue_n than_o of_o the_o use_n of_o latin_a service_n where_o latin_a be_v a_o unknown_a tongue_n for_o second_o i_o will_v ask_v our_o author_n whether_o there_o be_v any_o office_n of_o religion_n which_o people_n be_v bind_v to_o attend_v to_o and_o to_o join_v in_o his_o say_n that_o there_o be_v many_o which_o they_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o attend_v to_o suppose_n that_o there_o be_v some_o which_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o attend_v to_o and_o to_o join_v in_o and_o his_o make_v this_o a_o argument_n for_o service_n in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n that_o there_o be_v many_o office_n which_o they_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o attend_v to_o and_o therefore_o not_o to_o understand_v for_o there_o must_v be_v the_o force_n of_o his_o argument_n if_o it_o have_v any_o suppose_v that_o they_o must_v understand_v what_o they_o must_v attend_v to_o and_o join_v in_o how_o then_o do_v this_o justify_v the_o latin_a service_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o their_o whole_a service_n be_v in_o latin_a a_o unknown_a tongue_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o his_o reason_n the_o people_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o attend_v to_o or_o join_v in_o any_o part_n of_o their_o worship_n because_o they_o understand_v none_o of_o it_o and_o be_v not_o that_o a_o pretty_a kind_n of_o public_a worship_n which_o no_o body_n be_v bind_v to_o attend_v to_o or_o join_v in_o not_o the_o priest_n himself_o when_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v latin_a which_o as_o they_o say_v too_o often_o happen_v in_o catholic_n country_n 3_o since_o our_o author_n say_v that_o there_o be_v only_o many_o not_o all_o divine_a office_n which_o the_o people_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o join_v in_o he_o will_v have_v do_v well_o to_o have_v give_v we_o some_o mark_n of_o distinction_n that_o we_o may_v have_v know_v what_o office_n people_n must_v join_v in_o and_o what_o not_o for_o i_o can_v for_o my_o life_n think_v of_o any_o act_n of_o public_a christian_a worship_n which_o all_o christian_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o join_v in_o i_o shall_v think_v it_o very_o convenient_a that_o all_o christian_n shall_v attend_v to_o and_o join_v in_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n when_o they_o be_v administer_v for_o if_o they_o must_v not_o bear_v their_o part_n there_o which_o must_v be_v their_o own_o act_n or_o it_o signify_v nothing_o it_o be_v a_o make_n and_o renew_v a_o solemn_a vow_n and_o covenant_n with_o god_n to_o be_v sure_a they_o can_v be_v concern_v in_o nothing_o else_o and_o therefore_o the_o office_n of_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n aught_o to_o be_v administer_v in_o the_o vulgar_a tongue_n that_o every_o body_n may_v understand_v they_o thus_o if_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o pray_v to_o god_n and_o to_o praise_v he_o sure_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o join_v in_o public_a prayer_n and_o praise_n and_o then_o according_a to_o this_o rule_n the_o public_a prayer_n and_o hymn_n of_o the_o church_n ought_v to_o be_v in_o the_o vulgar_a tongue_n and_o i_o can_v imagine_v a_o reason_n why_o the_o people_n ought_v not_o to_o attend_v to_o read_v the_o lesson_n the_o epistle_n and_o gospel_n for_o i_o know_v no_o other_o use_n of_o read_v they_o but_o that_o the_o people_n may_v hear_v and_o understand_v they_o and_o be_v edify_v by_o they_o and_o then_o they_o also_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o vulgar_a tongue_n in_o short_a there_o be_v nothing_o be_v a_o office_n of_o religion_n but_o what_o the_o people_n be_v concern_v in_o and_o therefore_o must_v attend_v to_o it_o and_o join_v in_o it_o unless_o it_o be_v not_o their_o duty_n to_o attend_v to_o and_o join_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o our_o author_n by_o insinuate_v this_o principle_n that_o people_n must_v understand_v what_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o attend_v to_o and_o join_v in_o which_o be_v so_o agreeable_a to_o common_a sense_n that_o he_o can_v not_o resist_v it_o have_v effectual_o overthrow_v and_o condemn_v the_o latin_a service_n unless_o he_o can_v prove_v that_o people_n be_v not_o concern_v to_o join_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o then_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v why_o they_o must_v be_v present_a at_o it_o 4._o but_o suppose_v as_o he_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n that_o all_o shall_v special_o join_v and_o attend_v to_o all_o religious_a office_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o

and_o all_o join_v in_o the_o same_o petition_n with_o the_o same_o devout_a affection_n than_o that_o they_o shall_v only_o gaze_v upon_o the_o priest_n and_o be_v not_o worshipper_n but_o mere_a spectator_n of_o religious_a worship_n now_o if_o it_o be_v better_a to_o understand_v our_o prayer_n than_o not_o to_o understand_v they_o to_o offer_v up_o a_o reasonable_a than_o unreasonable_a service_n to_o god_n if_o it_o be_v better_a to_o worship_n god_n than_o mere_o to_o see_v he_o worship_v then_o how_o can_v he_o justify_v service_n in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n for_o when_o the_o apostle_n dispute_v against_o speak_v with_o unknown_a tongue_n the_o argument_n whereon_o he_o find_v the_o unlawfulness_n of_o it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v against_o edification_n and_o this_o argument_n must_v hold_v against_o latin_a service_n unless_o ignorance_n edify_v more_o than_o knowledge_n which_o i_o believe_v at_o this_o time_n of_o day_n our_o author_n will_v not_o care_v to_o
