in_o your_o honourable_a house_n your_o house_n be_v a_o paradise_n but_o may_v not_o the_o serpent_n get_v into_o paradise_n as_o great_a as_o you_o be_v you_o be_v under_o god_n every_o one_o of_o your_o member_n and_o the_o whole_a house_n must_v be_v at_o god_n devotion_n and_o command_n if_o you_o will_v walk_v wise_o and_o safe_o you_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o jehovah_n and_o keep_v in_o the_o way_n of_o jehovah_n the_o angel_n have_v charge_n over_o you_o as_o long_o as_o you_o walk_v in_o that_o way_n and_o christ_n the_o head_n of_o angel_n as_o well_o as_o saint_n will_v beat_v down_o your_o enemy_n under_o your_o foot_n 6._o the_o way_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o way_n of_o jehovah_n for_o he_o be_v jehovah_n our_o righteousness_n but_o you_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o learned_a and_o godly_a man_n can_v agree_v about_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n my_o first_o motion_n be_v that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v beat_v off_o from_o those_o principle_n in_o which_o we_o agree_v because_o there_o be_v some_o thing_n about_o which_o we_o differ_v 2._o that_o it_o may_v be_v diligent_o consider_v how_o far_o we_o agree_v few_o man_n believe_v that_o there_o be_v so_o sweet_a a_o agreement_n in_o so_o many_o unite_n principle_n between_o godly_a prudent_a and_o charitable_a man_n of_o different_a persuasion_n for_o the_o prevent_v and_o remove_v of_o all_o scandal_n as_o indeed_o there_o be_v 3._o that_o those_o many_o fair_a expedient_n which_o be_v propound_v for_o the_o heal_n of_o breach_n and_o compose_v of_o difference_n may_v be_v speedy_o take_v into_o your_o most_o serious_a thought_n 4._o consider_v that_o not_o only_o the_o eye_n of_o all_o the_o church_n abroad_o but_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n nay_o the_o vow_n of_o god_n be_v upon_o you_o and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v set_v before_o you_o and_o therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o as_o you_o tender_v the_o good_a and_o welfare_n of_o three_o kingdom_n and_o as_o you_o will_v answer_v it_o to_o the_o lord_n christ_n at_o the_o dreadful_a day_n of_o account_n that_o you_o observe_v the_o direction_n of_o the_o word_n how_o will_v you_o satisfy_v your_o conscience_n upon_o your_o deathbed_n how_o will_v you_o look_v christ_n in_o the_o face_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n if_o you_o reject_v the_o counsel_n of_o christ_n i_o will_v not_o question_v your_o intention_n what_o be_o i_o the_o last_o of_o minister_n and_o least_o of_o saint_n that_o i_o shall_v judge_v a_o parliament_n i_o desire_v to_o judge_v myself_o and_o deny_v myself_o i_o be_v not_o send_v to_o

you_o that_o it_o do_v special_o concern_v you_o in_o this_o great_a work_n of_o reformation_n to_o approve_v yourselves_o to_o the_o searcher_n of_o heart_n and_o judge_n of_o secret_n i_o have_v no_o design_n upon_o you_o i_o affect_v not_o power_n but_o desire_v purity_n i_o ask_v no_o power_n of_o you_o i_o have_v enough_o already_o more_o than_o i_o know_v how_o to_o use_v or_o answer_v for_o it_o be_v the_o free_a use_n of_o power_n which_o be_v desire_v for_o purity_n sake_n i_o shall_v not_o entreat_v you_o to_o part_n with_o any_o of_o your_o civil_a interest_n to_o make_v we_o friend_n i_o submit_v myself_o to_o all_o that_o power_n which_o belong_v to_o you_o as_o christian_a magistrate_n but_o remember_v that_o it_o be_v a_o limit_a power_n christ_n have_v set_v bound_n to_o your_o power_n as_o well_o as_o we_o and_o you_o be_v oblige_v to_o improve_v all_o your_o interest_n and_o use_v all_o your_o power_n for_o the_o service_n of_o christ_n in_o promote_a the_o great_a work_n of_o reformation_n i_o will_v not_o at_o present_a so_o much_o as_o state_n the_o great_a question_n for_o debate_n for_o this_o be_v not_o a_o fit_a place_n or_o day_n to_o dispute_v the_o point_n in_o controversy_n and_o it_o will_v be_v very_o absurd_a for_o i_o to_o take_v that_o for_o grant_v which_o you_o expect_v shall_v be_v prove_v i_o be_o resolve_v to_o follow_v my_o

be_v it_o that_o all_o our_o army_n be_v rout_v in_o the_o field_n then_o that_o the_o parliament_n of_o england_n shall_v be_v deceive_v sunt_fw-la i_o say_v but_o deceive_v to_o perish_v by_o act_n of_o parliament_n be_v to_o perish_v irrecoverable_o to_o perish_v by_o consent_n and_o wise_a statesman_n have_v observe_v that_o as_o some_o kingdom_n have_v be_v waste_v by_o arm_n so_o other_o have_v be_v overthrow_v quite_o overthrow_v by_o law_n my_o humble_a motion_n therefore_o be_v that_o you_o will_v not_o make_v more_o haste_n then_o good_a speed_n in_o decide_v the_o great_a question_n you_o may_v yet_o be_v counsel_v 1._o because_o the_o work_n be_v not_o yet_o perfect_v my_o motion_n may_v seem_v strange_a to_o some_o but_o i_o know_v full_a well_o that_o though_o a_o kingdom_n may_v be_v quick_o corrupt_v yet_o it_o can_v be_v so_o sudden_o reform_v and_o if_o you_o take_v long_o time_n that_o the_o question_n in_o controversy_n may_v be_v full_o debate_v your_o conscience_n right_o inform_v and_o satisfy_v you_o will_v gain_v time_n and_o light_a experience_n and_o comfort_n by_o such_o a_o thrifty_a expense_n of_o time_n that_o i_o may_v not_o countenance_v any_o politic_a delay_n and_o may_v improve_v the_o motion_n to_o the_o height_n be_v please_v to_o keep_v a_o private_a fast_n and_o call_v some_o judicious_a and_o self-denying_a man_n to_o preach_v before_o you_o who_o will_v deal_v plain_o and_o faithful_o with_o you_o in_o the_o nice_a point_n my_o reason_n to_o back_v the_o motion_n be_v brief_o these_o 1._o because_o you_o be_v never_o in_o great_a danger_n than_o now_o you_o be_v exercise_v with_o temptation_n on_o all_o hand_n sure_o this_o this_o be_v the_o hour_n of_o temptation_n you_o have_v need_n pray_v hard_a that_o you_o may_v not_o be_v lead_v into_o temptation_n 2._o good_a man_n be_v apt_a to_o be_v secure_a because_o you_o be_v master_n of_o the_o field_n and_o be_v enter_v into_o your_o much_o desire_a canaan_n 25._o but_o consider_v that_o when_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v upon_o the_o very_a border_n of_o canaan_n and_o all_o their_o enemy_n be_v not_o able_a to_o overthrow_v they_o they_o do_v by_o close_v with_o temptation_n and_o give_v way_n to_o their_o corruption_n overthrow_v themselves_o 3._o the_o point_n in_o agitation_n be_v point_n of_o high_a concernment_n point_n that_o have_v be_v study_v and_o much_o perplex_v by_o great_a scholar_n and_o witty_a man_n on_o both_o side_n be_v not_o too_o pleasant_a though_o much_o of_o this_o week_n be_v spend_v already_o yet_o if_o you_o be_v not_o very_o circumspect_a nay_o if_o you_o do_v not_o beg_v counsel_n of_o the_o lord_n you_o may_v undo_v three_o kingdom_n this_o week_n in_o three_o day_n 4._o when_o we_o mingle_v tear_n in_o private_a fast_n we_o have_v a_o sweet_a experience_n of_o god_n mercy_n your_o fidelity_n and_o resolution_n even_o then_o when_o you_o be_v at_o low_a and_o it_o will_v be_v your_o wisdom_n and_o your_o honour_n to_o walk_v humble_o and_o close_o with_o god_n when_o you_o be_v at_o high_a that_o god_n may_v bring_v upon_o you_o all_o the_o good_a that_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o they_o that_o
