itself_o in_o these_o thing_n and_o therefore_o the_o independent_o as_o i_o say_v think_v themselves_o clear_a of_o the_o gild_n of_o schism_n as_o have_v separate_v from_o a_o church_n which_o be_v

for_o thus_o that_o author_n declare_v in_o their_o behalf_n we_o can_v say_v he_o conceive_v it_o possible_a that_o in_o thing_n of_o divine_a worship_n thing_n of_o a_o indifferent_a nature_n

that_o be_v where_o god_n have_v leave_v man_n at_o their_o liberty_n to_o do_v this_o or_o that_o they_o may_v determine_v themselves_o but_o no_o human_a authority_n may_v determine_v for_o they_o far_o as_o to_o thing_n in_o god_n worship_n not_o determine_v by_o god_n they_o judge_v every_o man_n be_v svi_fw-la juris_fw-la and_o aught_o to_o be_v determine_v by_o god_n alone_o to_o this_o or_o that_o i._n e._n he_o can_v be_v oblige_v to_o this_o or_o that_o part_n by_o god_n only_o and_o he_o say_v plain_o that_o most_o of_o they_o be_v confident_a that_o in_o matter_n of_o worship_n no_o superior_n may_v restrain_v what_o god_n have_v leave_v at_o liberty_n in_o pursuance_n of_o this_o general_a principle_n he_o say_v some_o posture_n in_o a_o human_a action_n be_v necessary_a and_o none_o by_o god_n determine_v in_o every_o act_n of_o worship_n where_o there_o be_v no_o determination_n they_o believe_v themselves_o at_o liberty_n 17._o and_o think_v they_o ought_v not_o

again_o he_o acknowledge_v that_o they_o judge_v it_o vunlawful_a to_o obey_v law_n concern_v word_n in_o prayer_n which_o god_n have_v leave_v at_o liberty_n 9_o and_o concern_v habit_n and_o gesture_n suppose_v they_o to_o be_v leave_v at_o liberty_n and_o that_o none_o who_o be_v to_o use_v they_o very_o judge_v they_o unlawful_a and_o he_o intimate_v more_o than_o once_o that_o thing_n not_o necessary_a c._n and_o ordinary_o use_v in_o idolatrous_a and_o superstitious_a service_n may_v not_o in_o their_o judgement_n be_v lawful_o use_v how_o well_o he_o have_v prove_v these_o position_n i_o be_o not_o concern_v to_o examine_v but_o leave_v he_o for_o that_o to_o his_o learned_a antagonist_n these_o observation_n be_v particular_a enough_o for_o my_o purpose_n which_o be_v to_o show_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o ground_n of_o our_o separation_n from_o the_o roman_a church_n and_o those_o of_o their_o separation_n from_o we_o who_o this_o gentleman_n defend_v 3._o there_o be_v those_o who_o for_o all_o this_o seem_v not_o to_o think_v our_o communion_n unlawful_a in_o itself_o since_o they_o can_v sometime_o communicate_v with_o we_o in_o our_o whole_a service_n but_o they_o judge_v the_o way_n of_o the_o separate_a meeting_n to_o be_v more_o perfect_a and_o a_o better_a mean_n of_o edification_n and_o the_o ground_n of_o their_o separation_n be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o communicate_v ordinary_o in_o a_o more_o imperfect_a way_n of_o worship_n and_o enjoy_v the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o gospel_n where_o a_o better_a may_v be_v have_v 2._o i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v to_o compare_v the_o ground_n of_o separation_n on_o both_o side_n together_o that_o we_o may_v judge_v wherein_o they_o differ_v or_o how_o far_o they_o agree_v 1._o i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o most_o general_a ground_n of_o all_o be_v the_o same_o on_o both_o side_n or_o at_o least_o may_v be_v so_o that_o be_v that_o we_o separate_a from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o a_o full_a persuasion_n of_o conscience_n that_o so_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o that_o the_o dissenter_n separate_a from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n with_o the_o like_a persuasion_n but_o how_o far_o this_o agreement_n make_v the_o case_n of_o separation_n the_o same_o on_o both_o side_n and_o whether_o it_o will_v equal_o justify_v the_o the_o church_n of_o england_n separate_n from_o rome_n and_o the_o dissenter_n separate_v from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n will_v be_v consider_v time_n enough_o after_o all_o the_o other_o reason_n be_v compare_v 2._o the_o next_o general_a reason_n on_o both_o side_n allege_v be_v that_o separation_n be_v necessary_a for_o great_a purity_n of_o worship_n and_o ordinance_n we_o for_o great_a purity_n separate_v from_o rome_n the_o dissenter_n for_o great_a purity_n separate_v from_o we_o now_o whether_o this_o may_v or_o may_v not_o reasonable_o be_v pretend_v by_o the_o dissenter_n in_o their_o case_n as_o well_o as_o by_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o she_o will_v best_o oppear_v when_o we_o have_v lay_v together_o the_o particular_n exaept_v against_o on_o both_o side_n by_o we_o with_o reference_n to_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n by_o the_o dissenter_n with_o reference_n to_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o have_v also_o consider_v the_o way_n of_o maintain_v objection_n against_o the_o term_n of_o communion_n with_o rome_n or_o england_n that_o be_v peculiar_a to_o each_o side_n but_o 3._o there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o plea_n offer_v to_o justify_v the_o separation_n in_o both_o case_n with_o respect_n to_o that_o authority_n by_o which_o the_o condition_n of_o communion_n be_v prescribe_v for_o we_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n do_v unanimous_o deny_v that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n have_v any_o just_a authority_n to_o make_v rule_n for_o the_o communion_n or_o to_o prescribe_v law_n for_o the_o government_n of_o our_o church_n but_o all_o the_o dissenter_n do_v not_o question_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o that_o authority_n by_o which_o our_o liturgy_n be_v establish_v and_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o object_n against_o be_v require_v for_o those_o of_o the_o presbyterian_a persuasion_n among_o we_o however_o they_o dislike_v diocesan_n episcopacy_n yet_o seem_v not_o to_o insist_v upon_o it_o in_o their_o late_a write_n as_o a_o ground_n of_o separation_n from_o this_o church_n but_o if_o other_o thing_n be_v reform_v according_a to_o their_o mind_n
