chapter_n for_o first_o he_o say_v they_o shall_v come_v in_o sheep_n clothing_n but_o inward_o they_o be_v raven_a wolf_n so_o not_o in_o the_o sheep_n life_n and_o what_o be_v the_o sheep_n

it_o be_v all_o that_o be_v wise_a do_v clear_o see_v that_o this_o have_v no_o relation_n to_o the_o gospel_n dispensation_n but_o to_o the_o first_o covenant_n and_o priesthood_n and_o say_v the_o

both_o your_o and_o our_o duty_n we_o grant_v but_o thou_o do_v not_o show_v matter_n of_o fact_n wherein_o we_o be_v guilty_a it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o accuse_v and_o charge_v but_o wise_a

let_v it_o be_v consider_v from_o whence_o have_v all_o that_o great_a persecution_n for_o many_o year_n proceed_v whereby_o so_o many_o family_n have_v be_v ruin_v many_o thousand_o imprison_v their_o good_n take_v away_o not_o leave_v some_o so_o much_o as_o a_o bed_n to_o lie_v upon_o cattle_n to_o till_o the_o ground_n nor_o corn_n for_o bread_n and_o seed_n nor_o tool_n to_o work_v withal_o whip_v stock_v stoning_n and_o grievous_o abuse_v so_o that_o many_o thereby_o have_v lose_v their_o life_n and_o mere_o because_o they_o can_v not_o come_v to_o your_o worship_n for_o

in_o send_v forth_o wicked_a informer_n and_o sometime_o appear_v in_o their_o own_o person_n beside_o the_o great_a suffering_n wherein_o many_o have_v suffer_v for_o the_o minister_n wage_n and_o

yet_o live_v we_o need_v not_o say_v much_o to_o make_v it_o out_o it_o be_v still_o as_o wound_n bleed_v which_o may_v be_v see_v therefore_o come_v to_o the_o application_n and_o see_v where_o the_o imputation_n of_o this_o great_a desect_v which_o thou_o can_v not_o omit_v will_v fall_v if_o thou_o can_v prove_v these_o do_n of_o you_o to_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o love_n and_o charity_n than_o thou_o clear_a your_o church_n from_o this_o great_a defect_n and_o if_o so_o may_v be_v it_o may_v be_v a_o true_a church_n but_o sure_o they_o manifest_v quite_o the_o contrary_a and_o be_v never_o the_o mark_n of_o a_o true_a but_o of_o a_o false_a church_n as_o may_v be_v see_v from_o the_o day_n of_o cain_n downward_o so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o want_n of_o reason_n why_o r._n l_o and_o
