as_o desperate_a a_o plot_a treason_n as_o ever_o be_v in_o any_o nation_n and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o think_v so_o themselves_o what_o need_v their_o act_n of_o oblivion_n in_o scotland_n or_o the_o like_a in_o england_n to_o secure_v their_o abetter_n here_o three_o for_o the_o pacification_n at_o barwick_n whatever_o i_o say_v touch_v the_o dishonour_n of_o it_o as_o shall_v after_o appear_v yet_o no_o man_n can_v true_o charge_v i_o that_o i_o say_v it_o be_v meet_v to_o be_v break_v four_o i_o have_v no_o malignity_n answerable_a to_o their_o bitterness_n against_o the_o church_n of_o

manifest_a here_o how_o true_o the_o king_n be_v deal_v with_o on_o all_o hand_n for_o here_o you_o see_v they_o take_v on_o they_o to_o know_v not_o only_o what_o be_v do_v at_o the_o council-table_n

they_o proceed_v yet_o far_o against_o i_o by_o he_o be_v it_o that_o our_o covenant_n approven_v by_o national_a assembly_n subscribe_v by_o his_o majesty_n commissioner_n and_o by_o the_o lord_n of_o his_o majesty_n council_n and_o by_o they_o command_v to_o be_v subscribe_v by_o all_o the_o subject_n of_o the_o kingdom_n as_o a_o testimony_n of_o our_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o the_o king_n

at_o first_o without_o at_o least_o if_o not_o against_o the_o king_n i_o do_v utter_o dislike_v and_o if_o i_o do_v say_v it_o be_v ungodly_a damnable_a and_o treasonable_a i_o say_v no_o more_o than_o it_o deserve_v nor_o be_v it_o any_o thing_n the_o better_a but_o much_o the_o worse_o if_o as_o it_o be_v so_o make_v at_o first_o it_o be_v approve_v by_o national_a assembly_n for_o that_o be_v but_o the_o great_a sign_n that_o the_o rebellious_a faction_n grow_v strong_a but_o i_o never_o c._n find_v fault_n with_o their_o covenant_n after_o they_o be_v please_v to_o take_v in_o the_o king_n and_o by_o his_o authority_n signify_v by_o the_o subscription_n of_o his_o commissioner_n to_o do_v what_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v do_v nor_o be_v there_o any_o oath_n invent_v or_o press_v by_o

the_o council_n table_n and_o if_o any_o oath_n tender_v to_o they_o there_o be_v contrary_a to_o their_o national_a oath_n i_o doubt_v it_o will_v easy_o be_v find_v that_o their_o national_a oath_n if_o such_o it_o be_v be_v contrary_a to_o their_o due_a and_o natural_a allegiance_n but_o what_o be_v next_o why_o this_o when_o our_o commissioner_n do_v appear_v to_o render_v the_o reason_n of_o our_o demand_n he_o spare_v not_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o committee_n to_o rail_v against_o our_o national_a assembly_n as_o not_o dare_v to_o appear_v before_o the_o

the_o first_o be_v that_o i_o rail_v at_o their_o national_a assembly_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o committee_n but_o that_o under_o favour_n be_v not_o so_o nor_o be_v it_o my_o fashion_n to_o rail_v at_o any_o body_n much_o less_o in_o such_o a_o presence_n i_o be_v then_o open_o tax_v and_o by_o name_n by_o the_o l._n lowdon_n one_o of_o the_o commissioner_n and_o that_o which_o i_o say_v in_o answer_n to_o he_o be_v in_o my_o own_o defence_n and_o it_o be_v to_o this_o effect_n that_o whatsoever_o their_o assembly_n have_v conclude_v do_v not_o much_o move_v i_o for_o i_o do_v assure_v myself_o nothing_o they_o can_v say_v or_o do_v can_v sink_v my_o credit_n in_o christendom_n go_v upon_o ground_n which_o will_v every_o where_o abide_v trial_n and_o i_o somewhat_o doubt_v whether_o the_o act_n of_o their_o assembly_n will_v do_v so_o since_o even_o at_o home_n not_o the_o bishop_n only_o but_o the_o learned_a divine_n of_o aberdeen_n oppose_v divers_a of_o they_o this_o be_v not_o rail_v against_o their_o assembly_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v think_v too_o much_o to_o be_v speak_v by_o though_o for_o myself_o i_o humble_o desire_v the_o christian_a reader_n to_o remember_v that_o even_o s._n paul_n 11._o be_v force_v to_o commend_v himself_o when_o false_a brethren_n accuse_v he_o 2_o cor._n 12._o next_o they_o say_v i_o speak_v against_o their_o just_a and_o necessary_a defence_n true_o not_o i_o that_o which_o i_o speak_v be_v against_o their_o defence_n as_o be_v neither_o just_a nor_o necessary_a and_o if_o i_o then_o say_v speak_v of_o thing_n as_o they_o stand_v then_o that_o they_o be_v treasonable_a contempt_n of_o monarchical_a government_n then_o be_v such_o their_o defence_n of_o they_o can_v neither_o be_v just_o nor_o necessary_a and_o true_o as_o they_o stand_v than_o i_o hold_v they_o very_o desperate_a against_o the_o honour_n and_o just_a power_n of_o the_o king_n i_o say_v as_o they_o stand_v then_o for_o since_o his_o majesty_n have_v refer_v they_o to_o honourable_a commissioner_n of_o both_o nation_n and_o out_o of_o his_o clemency_n and_o goodness_n have_v admit_v all_o or_o most_o of_o they_o which_o i_o believe_v few_o king_n will_v have_v do_v i_o have_v speak_v nothing_o of_o they_o but_o in_o prayer_n that_o god_n will_v gracious_o be_v please_v to_o turn_v all_o these_o

reduce_v they_o to_o the_o heresy_n in_o doctrine_n the_o 〈◊〉_d superstition_n and_o idolatry_n in_o worship_n and_o the_o tyranny_n in_o government_n which_o be_v in_o that_o see_v and_o for_o

not_o the_o pope_n himself_o now_o sure_o he_o can_v do_v little_a then_o for_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o in_o the_o very_a last_o passage_n i_o never_o intend_v more_o to_o the_o reform_a church_n than_o to_o wish_v they_o in_o doctrine_n and_o discipline_n like_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o i_o hope_v that_o be_v neither_o to_o negotiate_v for_o rome_n nor_o to_o reduce_v they_o to_o heresy_n in_o doctrine_n nor_o to_o superstition_n and_o idolatry_n in_o worship_n no_o nor_o to_o tyranny_n in_o government_n all_o which_o be_v here_o most_o wrongful_o impute_v to_o i_o and_o this_o

the_o church_n of_o rome_n than_o any_o have_v yet_o be_v give_v and_o that_o they_o know_v full_a well_o and_o whereas_o they_o say_v that_o for_o these_o thing_n the_o reform_a church_n do_v

to_o these_o thing_n they_o be_v excommunicate_v and_o thrust_v out_o then_o indeed_o they_o separate_v but_o not_o till_o they_o be_v force_v by_o a_o double_a necessity_n of_o truth_n from_o which_o

can_v make_v they_o to_o be_v all_o of_o one_o kind_n for_o all_o crime_n tend_v more_o or_o less_o to_o the_o overthrow_n of_o virtue_n yet_o no_o man_n can_v say_v that_o all_o crime_n be_v of_o

for_o the_o breach_n of_o any_o particular_a law_n if_o i_o be_v guilty_a i_o be_o to_o be_v punish_v by_o the_o sanction_n of_o that_o law_n which_o i_o have_v break_v 3._o three_o whereas_o it_o

well_o as_o the_o result_n or_o habit_n itself_o whereas_o it_o have_v be_v grant_v all_o along_o that_o my_o particular_a action_n be_v not_o treason_n and_o three_o a_o habit_n in_o itself_o neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v treason_n for_o all_o treason_n be_v either_o thought_n word_n or_o overt_a act_n but_o no_o habit_n be_v either_o of_o these_o therefore_o not_o treason_n for_o a_o
