by_o their_o censure_n it_o be_v evident_a they_o think_v none_o such_o to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o christendom_n but_o themselves_o who_o hold_v the_o head_n and_o build_v on_o the_o true_a

the_o head_n and_o only_o differ_v in_o some_o lesser_a matter_n but_o unless_o they_o be_v so_o unchristian_o uncharitable_a as_o they_o too_o evident_o show_v they_o be_v as_o to_o judge_v none_o in_o christendom_n differ_v from_o they_o in_o profession_n to_o hold_v the_o head_n or_o be_v sincere_a professor_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o they_o only_a why_o shall_v i_o be_v

particular_a which_o some_o may_v bring_v for_o to_o prove_v it_o and_o i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o be_v ashamed_a to_o publish_v this_o confession_n that_o i_o have_v great_a peace_n and_o joy_n in_o it_o and_o i_o also_o declare_v that_o i_o be_o just_o ashamed_a that_o i_o have_v be_v so_o long_o deceive_v and_o bias_v with_o such_o weak_a argument_n as_o both_o they_o call_v friend_n and_o i_o have_v use_v be_v too_o much_o influence_v and_o bias_v by_o their_o pretend_a authority_n to_o persuade_v and_o draw_v away_o the_o mind_n of_o people_n from_o the_o true_a sense_n of_o these_o place_n of_o scripture_n and_o the_o argument_n that_o we_o have_v most_o use_v against_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v so_o weak_a that_o they_o have_v the_o same_o force_n against_o the_o bible_n itself_o and_o all_o book_n and_o outward_a testimony_n and_o outward_a act_n of_o worship_n and_o therefore_o be_v void_a in_o themselves_o for_o see_v they_o have_v no_o force_n against_o the_o latter_a they_o have_v as_o little_a against_o the_o former_a however_o i_o continue_v in_o my_o faithful_a testimony_n against_o the_o abuse_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o the_o dead_a empty_a and_o formal_a way_n that_o too_o many_o practise_v they_o and_o except_o the_o lord_n be_v find_v to_o bless_v and_o accompany_v they_o who_o use_v they_o with_o his_o power_n and_o spirit_n they_o be_v but_o as_o empty_a shadow_n and_o shell_n but_o who_o find_v the_o lord_n to_o bless_v they_o with_o his_o presence_n i_o judge_v they_o not_o and_o in_o this_o i_o be_o not_o singular_a for_o divers_a of_o good_a note_n among_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n even_o preacher_n have_v say_v the_o same_o or_o equivalent_a as_o particular_o john_n crook_n and_o robert_n barclay_n and_o it_o
