horn_n have_v little_a strength_n but_o can_v he_o have_v add_v to_o they_o this_o five_o horn_n that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n approve_v the_o invocation_n of_o the_o dead_a as_o of_o the_o live_n

be_v lame_a and_o imperfect_a for_o i_o have_v show_v a_o five_o reason_n why_o not_o because_o the_o word_n of_o god_n oblige_v not_o to_o one_o as_o to_o the_o other_o it_o require_v that_o we_o shall_v desire_v the_o mutual_a assistance_n of_o one_o another_o prayer_n living_n but_o not_o after_o our_o decease_n all_o civil_a commerce_n be_v intercept_v by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n between_o the_o live_n and_o the_o dead_a phil._n do_v you_o reckon_v our_o invocation_n of_o the_o saint_n depart_v a_o part_n of_o civil_a commerce_n i_o think_v it_o have_v be_v a_o religious_a act_n and_o duty_n theoph._n i_o grant_v prayer_n to_o be_v such_o and_o therefore_o a_o part_n of_o divine_a worship_n to_o be_v give_v only_o to_o god_n but_o that_o invocation_n of_o holy_a man_n live_v as_o you_o call_v it_o or_o as_o i_o term_v it_o that_o pious_a desire_n and_o request_n which_o one_o christian_a make_v unto_o another_o that_o he_o may_v enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o his_o prayer_n from_o whence_o you_o draw_v a_o argument_n for_o invocation_n after_o their_o decease_n that_o doubtless_o be_v a_o civil_a request_n wherewith_o christian_n mutual_o call_v upon_o and_o oblige_v

civil_a and_o so_o child_n beg_v the_o blessing_n of_o their_o parent_n these_o be_v formal_o civil_a not_o religious_a acts._n a_o good_a christian_a indeed_o give_v honour_n to_o his_o prince_n and_o to_o his_o parent_n not_o only_o upon_o a_o civil_a account_n but_o also_o religious_a it_o be_v a_o duty_n require_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n yet_o the_o honour_n itself_o be_v civil_a the_o motive_n unto_o we_o wherefore_o we_o give_v it_o be_v religious_a the_o will_n and_o command_v of_o god_n phil._n you_o be_v willing_a to_o involve_v the_o discourse_n with_o subtle_a notion_n and_o nice_a distinction_n such_o honour_n as_o you_o give_v to_o prince_n and_o parent_n vouchsafe_v to_o the_o saint_n in_o glory_n beg_v the_o assistance_n of_o their_o prayer_n upon_o your_o knee_n and_o it_o shall_v suffice_v theoph._n yourself_o cause_v this_o digression_n you_o suppose_v the_o invocation_n of_o saint_n depart_v to_o be_v a_o religious_a act_n and_o so_o in_o truth_n you_o general_o make_v it_o a_o great_a part_n of_o your_o religion_n i_o have_v show_v how_o the_o desire_n and_o request_n which_o christian_n make_v to_o one_o another_o whilst_o they_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n mutual_o to_o be_v remember_v in_o their_o prayer_n be_v a_o civil_a request_n and_o therefore_o no_o sufficient_a ground_n for_o your_o religious_a invocation_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o glory_n but_o at_o length_n you_o be_v content_a we_o shall_v make_v the_o same_o civil_a request_n to_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n for_o their_o prayer_n as_o to_o the_o faithful_a who_o be_v live_v you_o may_v observe_v it_o general_o such_o as_o be_v in_o the_o wrong_n will_v accept_v of_o any_o composition_n but_o we_o can_v grant_v it_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o death_n intercept_v all_o civil_a obligation_n and_o commerce_n between_o person_n parent_n when_o they_o be_v dead_a cease_v to_o be_v provident_a for_o their_o dear_a child_n and_o these_o expect_v it_o not_o from_o

and_o triumphant_a but_o that_o be_v mystical_a as_o fellow-member_n of_o christ_n body_n but_o the_o civil_a communion_n between_o brethren_n and_o neighbour_n and_o the_o relation_n of_o parent_n

upon_o or_o flow_v from_o that_o communion_n that_o child_n shall_v ask_v their_o father_n blessing_n after_o his_o decease_n i_o never_o yet_o do_v read_v your_o doctor_n have_v assert_v phil._n i_o be_o well_o confirm_v by_o these_o your_o digression_n that_o notwithstanding_o you_o will_v appear_v to_o slight_a beauties_n argument_n and_o pretend_v to_o cut_v off_o all_o the_o four_o horn_n at_o one_o blow_n by_o give_v a_o general_a answer_n yet_o in_o truth_n you_o do_v wary_o decline_v the_o force_n of_o it_o and_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o come_v to_o the_o four_o particular_n whereupon_o he_o have_v insist_v that_o see_v the_o saint_n depart_v be_v as_o willing_a and_o as_o able_a to_o help_v we_o now_o with_o their_o prayer_n as_o when_o they_o be_v live_v among_o we_o and_o see_v they_o know_v our_o state_n and_o can_v hear_v and_o receive_v our_o address_n to_o they_o and_o see_v their_o intercession_n now_o for_o we_o be_v not_o injurious_a to_o the_o
