any_o but_o be_v found_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n and_o circumstance_n or_o else_o the_o assertion_n of_o equity_n will_v be_v very_o ridiculous_a so_o we_o be_v sure_a from_o what_o have_v be_v large_o declare_v especial_o by_o compare_v other_o extreme_n that_o our_o church_n of_o england_n be_v far_o from_o design_v to_o use_v or_o encourage_v any_o arbitrary_a or_o rigorous_a way_n of_o administration_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o natural_a justice_n or_o christianity_n 2._o as_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o moderation_n it_o have_v appear_v that_o benevolence_n be_v the_o true_a fountain_n of_o equity_n and_o answer_v the_o most_o general_a law_n of_o nature_n give_v the_o best_a end_n and_o measure_n to_o all_o action_n especial_o which_o have_v any_o influence_n on_o the_o public_a which_o cause_v law_n themselves_o to_o bend_v by_o all_o gentleness_n and_o benignity_n to_o the_o general_a design_n of_o all_o public_a and_o private_a endeavour_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o peace_n and_o goodwill_n to_o man_n so_o we_o hope_v from_o the_o foregoing_a instance_n it_o appear_v also_o that_o a_o

we_o all_o who_o live_v where_o the_o law_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o the_o church_n be_v frame_v and_o interpret_v according_a to_o this_o equity_n to_o acknowledge_v so_o great_a a_o blessing_n
