case_n as_o in_o all_o matter_n of_o faith_n i_o shall_v not_o depart_v ne_fw-la hilum_fw-la quidem_fw-la as_o to_o what_o you_o write_v of_o other_o man_n speak_v against_o the_o litany_n i_o shall_v not_o meddle_v withal_o nor_o as_o what_o you_o can_v say_v to_o other_o piece_n of_o the_o book_n you_o mention_v but_o this_o i_o shall_v say_v if_o i_o understand_v what_o litany_n be_v neither_o be_v the_o word_n reciprocal_a with_o your_o matter_n unto_o which_o it_o be_v prefix_v nor_o the_o matter_n with_o the_o word_n and_o however_o you_o say_v nothing_o can_v be_v say_v against_o it_o but_o what_o may_v easy_o be_v resolve_v into_o a_o phanaticke_n humour_n i_o suppose_v if_o you_o read_v those_o book_n write_v about_o this_o argument_n of_o which_o i_o think_v you_o be_v not_o ignorant_a you_o may_v find_v more_o reason_n to_o be_v answer_v than_o fancy_n to_o be_v jeer_v if_o you_o seek_v for_o objection_n i_o refer_v you_o to_o they_o as_o to_o other_o passage_n in_o your_o letter_n i_o shall_v be_v silent_a lest_o i_o give_v you_o occasion_n to_o be_v angry_a only_o i_o hope_v as_o you_o urge_v the_o experience_n of_o your_o own_o heart_n in_o your_o way_n of_o prayer_n to_o give_v you_o proof_n of_o its_o goodness_n so_o you_o will_v allow_v the_o experience_n of_o other_o in_o another_o way_n of_o prayer_n than_o by_o book_n to_o plead_v for_o they_o sir_n i_o shall_v make_v this_o amicable_a close_n with_o you_o as_o to_o any_o more_o write_v you_o say_v my_o query_n be_v impertinent_a to_o your_o design_n true_o i_o know_v not_o what_o your_o design_n be_v but_o i_o be_o sure_a they_o be_v pertinent_a to_o determine_v the_o question_n of_o impose_v form_n of_o prayer_n on_o they_o who_o have_v no_o need_n of_o they_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n you_o say_v also_o you_o consider_v it_o simple_o without_o respect_n to_o its_o be_v impose_v if_o you_o stand_v to_o your_o word_n i_o come_v to_o this_o issue_n if_o you_o argue_v not_o to_o impose_v it_o on_o the_o church_n of_o god_n which_o can_v by_o scripture_n directory_n make_v their_o address_n to_o god_n without_o it_o i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v you_o nor_o any_o that_o think_v yourselves_o to_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o any_o lawful_a form_n of_o prayer_n to_o help_v you_o only_o do_v not_o bind_v man_n to_o crutch_n who_o god_n have_v enable_v to_o go_v without_o they_o i_o have_v do_v as_o to_o any_o more_o letter_n about_o this_o matter_n and_o now_o commend_v you_o to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n grace_n which_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v you_o and_o give_v you_o a_o inheritance_n among_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v i_o shall_v ever_o rest_v plym_n sep._n 7._o 1660._o you_o to_o serve_v you_o in_o the_o lord_n george_n hughes_n to_o mr._n hughes_n sir_n i_o thank_v you_o for_o your_o last_o letter_n but_o shall_v thank_v you_o more_o but_o that_o i_o find_v and_o expression_n in_o it_o which_o i_o apprehend_v as_o very_o scopticall_a and_o unfriendly_a that_o be_v this_o as_o to_o other_o passage_n in_o your_o letter_n i_o shall_v be_v silent_a lest_o i_o give_v you_o occasion_n to_o be_v angry_a sir_n if_o those_o passage_n be_v evil_a i_o conceive_v you_o shall_v be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n have_v so_o fair_a a_o opportunity_n to_o show_v i_o wherein_o and_o that_o in_o such_o plainness_n and_o simplicity_n of_o expression_n as_o be_v fit_a to_o drop_v from_o the_o tongue_n or_o pen_n of_o a_o christian_n one_o that_o carry_v the_o heavenly_a dove_n in_o his_o bosom_n if_o they_o be_v not_o evil_a you_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v such_o a_o reflection_n on_o they_o as_o i_o conceive_v you_o have_v in_o the_o writing_n of_o that_o expression_n i_o must_v confess_v a_o carnal_a man_n may_v easy_o have_v take_v a_o occasion_n to_o scoff_n at_o i_o if_o i_o have_v write_v to_o he_o as_o i_o do_v to_o you_o desire_v that_o you_o will_v avoid_v all_o exasperate_v language_n but_o sir_n i_o take_v you_o to_o be_v a_o person_n who_o know_v by_o your_o own_o experience_n that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o exceed_a great_a trouble_n to_o any_o one_o that_o will_v always_o repose_v his_o spirit_n in_o the_o god_n of_o peace_n to_o be_v at_o any_o time_n discompose_v though_o it_o be_v but_o by_o the_o least_o act_n of_o animosity_n or_o indignation_n against_o any_o man_n person_n and_o therefore_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o foolish_a to_o do_v or_o say_v what_o we_o can_v to_o prevent_v any_o thing_n by_o which_o the_o devil_n may_v possible_o frame_v in_o we_o a_o temptation_n to_o that_o sin_n of_o anger_n or_o roughness_n of_o spirit_n if_o you_o wonder_v why_o i_o shall_v fear_v that_o you_o will_v deal_v uncivil_o with_o i_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o you_o give_v i_o too_o much_o reason_n for_o it_o in_o your_o first_o letter_n namely_o by_o your_o juvenum_fw-la confidentissimus_fw-la your_o so_o slight_a a_o matter_n as_o the_o send_v you_o a_o answer_n your_o put_n in_o these_o word_n a_o able_a respondent_fw-la as_o i_o though_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o any_o part_n of_o my_o letter_n if_o i_o have_v express_v myself_o in_o those_o word_n the_o expression_n must_v have_v employ_v a_o vain_a boast_n of_o my_o own_o ability_n whereas_o the_o expression_n that_o i_o use_v imply_v only_o a_o confidence_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o my_o cause_n and_o the_o strength_n that_o thereupon_o i_o shall_v expect_v from_o god_n when_o ever_o i_o shall_v in_o a_o pure_a and_o virtuous_a intention_n undertake_v to_o maintain_v it_o sir_n i_o can_v but_o wonder_v that_o you_o shall_v say_v i_o know_v not_o what_o your_o design_n be_v when_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o what_o it_o be_v express_o in_o these_o word_n to_o know_v whether_o or_o no_o you_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o object_n against_o this_o position_n that_o a_o man_n may_z worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n in_o the_o use_n of_o that_o form_n of_o prayer_n for_o morning_n and_o evening_n which_o we_o call_v the_o commonprayer_n which_o i_o tell_v you_o i_o consider_v simple_o without_o respect_n to_o the_o impose_n of_o it_o and_o i_o do_v stand_v to_o my_o word_n but_o this_o i_o say_v that_o if_o the_o king_n shall_v think_v fit_a to_o impose_v it_o by_o the_o reinforcement_n of_o that_o old_a act_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o there_o will_v be_v man_n enough_o find_v out_o that_o shall_v be_v ready_a to_o manifest_v to_o the_o world_n the_o reasonableness_n and_o the_o piety_n of_o such_o a_o action_n but_o this_o work_n god_n have_v not_o call_v i_o unto_o that_o which_o i_o undertake_v be_v to_o maintain_v the_o assertion_n above_o mention_v which_o i_o shall_v be_v ready_a to_o do_v god_n willing_a when_o ever_o i_o find_v any_o thing_n like_o reason_n propose_v against_o it_o and_o i_o shall_v humble_o entreat_v you_o to_o tell_v i_o what_o book_n you_o will_v chief_o advise_v i_o to_o read_v which_o have_v any_o thing_n in_o it_o express_o against_o the_o litany_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o best_a part_n of_o the_o commonprayer_n if_o any_o part_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v better_a than_o another_o in_o a_o composition_n so_o entire_o excellent_a alas_o sir_n i_o do_v not_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o a_o set_a form_n i_o thank_v god_n but_o the_o generality_n of_o my_o congregation_n do_v be_v not_o so_o ready_a to_o apprehend_v extomporary_a expressi●ns_n as_o i_o be_o to_o deliver_v they_o even_o those_o that_o be_v of_o the_o weak_a capacity_n i_o advise_v to_o use_v their_o own_o expression_n when_o they_o pray_v in_o secret_a *_o {non-roman}_o neither_o do_v i_o ever_o confin●_z myself_n to_o a_o set_a form_n in_o the_o pulpit_n either_o before_o or_o after_o sermon_n conceive_v that_o that_o way_n of_o express_v my_o heart_n in_o prayer_n which_o i_o use_v there_o may_v be_v more_o helpful_a to_o the_o devotion_n of_o some_o of_o my_o auditory_a than_o the_o other_o and_o not_o whole_o

concerning_o this_o business_n unless_o it_o be_v in_o vindication_n of_o what_o i_o have_v already_o write_v if_o you_o express_v those_o exception_n against_o it_o which_o you_o seem_v to_o imply_v in_o that_o say_n lest_o i_o give_v you_o occasion_n to_o be_v angry_a if_o you_o shall_v grant_v i_o the_o request_n above_o mention_v i_o shall_v take_v it_o for_o a_o great_a favour_n and_o shall_v
