shall_v not_o see_v nor_o hear_v of_o one_o to_o be_v whip_v in_o many_o month_n or_o hang_v in_o many_o year_n will_v it_o not_o be_v say_v of_o a_o truth_n god_n be_v there_o and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o most_o pure_a religion_n and_o peaceable_a government_n of_o christ_n above_o all_o other_o that_o be_v yet_o profess_v and_o that_o i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v the_o thing_n but_o if_o this_o be_v not_o sufficient_a i_o beseech_v all_o man_n to_o examine_v if_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a government_n of_o scotland_n take_v more_o from_o their_o king_n then_o it_o add_v unto_o the_o ministry_n so_o as_o the_o people_n get_v neither_o knowledge_n or_o freedom_n thereby_o and_o to_o give_v you_o a_o unerring_a precedent_n consider_v what_o i_o say_v in_o the_o beginning_n and_o let_v any_o that_o know_v the_o nature_n of_o that_o country_n judge_n and_o answer_v if_o the_o debauch_a slavish_a condition_n of_o the_o inferior_a and_o common_a sort_n of_o people_n in_o scotland_n which_o be_v continue_v by_o the_o tie_n of_o religion_n be_v less_o slavish_a and_o miserable_a than_o the_o turk_n or_o other_o infidel_n and_o i_o say_v if_o every_o

it_o and_o that_o thou_o remony_n or_o form_n of_o worship_n be_v not_o the_o substance_n but_o righteousness_n be_v the_o mark_n of_o christ_n and_o slavery_n which_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o unrighteousness_n the_o mark_n of_o the_o beast_n then_o i_o conceive_v no_o man_n will_v maintain_v any_o thing_n in_o opposition_n hereunto_o but_o if_o any_o shall_v be_v please_v to_o oppose_v the_o truth_n hereof_o i_o shall_v in_o a_o christian_a way_n be_v ready_a to_o reply_v provide_v we_o may_v hold_v to_o the_o true_a ground_n of_o distinction_n between_o good_a and_o evil_a the_o nature_n of_o christ_n and_o antichrist_n according_a to_o gospel-warrant_a and_o can_v it_o be_v conceive_v that_o when_o the_o debauch_a person_n do_v right_o consider_v the_o peril_n of_o his_o

other_o and_o that_o it_o have_v be_v good_a for_o he_o to_o have_v be_v educate_v under_o such_o a_o mean_n of_o grace_n but_o will_v petition_v as_o also_o assist_v the_o honourable_a parliament_n to_o establish_v the_o like_a noble_a thing_n with_o we_o and_o whereas_o some_o have_v be_v please_v to_o give_v out_o report_v concern_v some_o arrear_n which_o be_v hold_v by_o i_o i_o have_v brief_o lay_v down_o the_o substance_n of_o my_o judgement_n to_o trial_n again_o first_o i_o hold_v the_o pure_a word_n of_o god_n and_o strength_n of_o the_o scripture_n do_v prove_v that_o god_n be_v the_o life_n motion_n and_o be_v of_o all_o thing_n but_o all_o in_o order_n and_o as_o he_o do_v so_o he_o do_v create_v all_o thing_n good_a and_o nothing_o evil_a second_o that_o all_o good_a be_v that_o which_o proceed_v from_o the_o perfect_a love_n of_o moderation_n and_o the_o proper_a use_n of_o thing_n according_a to_o ggreement_n by_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n in_o man_n for_o the_o preservation_n of_o love_n peace_n and_o admiration_n unto_o he_o the_o creator_n three_o that_o all_o evil_n come_v of_o the_o imperfect_a love_n of_o immoderation_n and_o the_o improper_a use_n of_o thing_n contrary_a to_o agreement_n by_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n in_o man_n to_o the_o hindrance_n of_o love_n peace_n and_o admiration_n four_o that_o the_o true_a catholic_n or_o universal_a faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v to_o believe_v that_o as_o god_n be_v our_o life_n and_o be_v so_o be_v he_o able_a and_o will_v save_v to_o the_o utmost_a all_o they_o that_o trust_v in_o he_o five_o that_o this_o love_n of_o moderation_n mediation_n or_o reconciliation_n be_v the_o save_a love_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o he_o have_v communion_n with_o the_o father_n before_o the_o world_n be_v and_o by_o which_o the_o world_n be_v make_v and_o be_v still_o preserve_v and_o continue_v six_o that_o this_o universal_a faith_n of_o christ_n be_v first_o in_o order_n to_o his_o universal_a love_n for_o faith_n shall_v cease_v but_o love_n shall_v endure_v seven_o that_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o we_o be_v save_v and_o although_o it_o be_v say_v there_o be_v no_o other_o name_n then_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n only_o by_o which_o we_o can_v be_v save_v it_o be_v true_a for_o by_o his_o name_n we_o figure_v out_o his_o nature_n and_o his_o name_n vary_v as_o the_o language_n do_v beside_o we_o may_v see_v christ_n in_o the_o fruit_n and_o action_n of_o a_o christian_a but_o doubtless_o not_o in_o he_o that_o profane_o and_o desperate_o swear_v by_o it_o and_o when_o his_o name_n and_o nature_n go_v together_o then_o shall_v every_o knee_n bow_n but_o if_o at_o his_o name_n only_o judge_v you_o eight_o that_o understanding_n of_o god_n in_o man_n which_o proceed_v only_o from_o the_o love_n of_o moderation_n for_o the_o proper_a use_n of_o thing_n according_a to_o agreement_n be_v to_o be_v call_v reason_n and_o it_o be_v not_o the_o high_a conceit_n to_o work_v curious_a work_n or_o speak_v elegant_a word_n nor_o yet_o the_o subtle_a art_n to_o destroy_v one_o another_o that_o be_v to_o be_v say_v of_o reason_n for_o then_o the_o wolf_n the_o bee_n the_o spider_n the_o parrot_n shall_v be_v call_v reasonable_a creature_n and_o the_o height_n and_o excellency_n thereof_o be_v to_o be_v measure_v according_a as_o it_o extend_v itself_o in_o a_o peaceable_a order_n for_o the_o regulate_a and_o make_v of_o the_o most_o equal_a and_o just_a agreement_n now_o have_v receive_v christ_n as_o before_o so_o walk_v i_o or_o desire_v to_o walk_v in_o he_o and_o square_v my_o reason_n as_o well_o as_o my_o action_n by_o he_o be_v at_o peace_n and_o in_o universal_a love_n with_o all_o man_n but_o if_o any_o thing_n may_v be_v object_v against_o any_o of_o this_o or_o whatsoever_o else_o i_o have_v or_o shall_v lay_v down_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o to_o give_v satisfaction_n either_o by_o a_o sober_a answer_n of_o justification_n or_o sudden_a acknowledgement_n of_o my_o error_n with_o much_o rejoice_v now_o if_o at_o this_o and_o every_o season_n all_o thing_n stand_v and_o be_v good_a according_a to_o the_o divine_a decree_n then_o ought_v every_o man_n who_o have_v but_o the_o present_a moment_n of_o time_n to_o endeavour_v the_o preservation_n thereof_o through_o the_o exercise_n of_o reason_n of_o the_o love_n of_o moderation_n &_o for_o want_v whereof_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o shall_v destroy_v thing_n which_o be_v and_o because_o all_o thing_n may_v be_v lawful_a yet_o not_o at_o every_o season_n expedient_a but_o now_o look_v at_o the_o best_a visible_a thing_n with_o we_o i_o have_v free_o take_v the_o engagement_n to_o be_v true_a and_o faithful_a to_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o england_n without_o a_o king_n or_o house_n of_o lord_n touch_v which_o through_o god_n i_o shall_v not_o faint_o endeavour_v to_o perform_v to_o the_o utmost_a for_o although_o he_o that_o be_v a_o true_a christian_a by_o nature_n can_v ready_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o the_o most_o righteous_a peace_n and_o freedom_n unto_o the_o public_a yet_o ought_v he_o to_o know_v that_o in_o order_n to_o the_o best_a thing_n valour_n and_o courage_n must_v not_o be_v absent_a and_o that_o command_v of_o christ_n that_o say_v unto_o he_o he_o that_o strike_v we_o on_o one_o cheek_n we_o shall_v turn_v the_o other_o have_v reference_n unto_o person_n season_n time_n and_o place_n as_o i_o may_v instance_n many_o way_n by_o his_o own_o example_n and_o that_o this_o be_v only_o to_o be_v do_v where_o in_o reason_n it_o may_v convert_v into_o mercy_n and_o as_o among_o such_o as_o have_v partake_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n and_o bear_v good_a will_n to_o the_o gospel_n by_o which_o meekness_n we_o may_v build_v they_o up_o therein_o it_o oftententimes_o aught_o to_o be_v but_o this_o command_n extend_v not_o to_o be_v practise_v by_o we_o unto_o the_o turk_n and_o infidel_n or_o other_o the_o sensual_a person_n of_o immoderat●ion_n that_o have_v receive_v christ_n but_o nominal_o to_o who_o the_o true_a christian_a be_v odious_a and_o as_o a_o good_a man_n be_v merciful_a to_o his_o beast_n so_o be_v it_o mercy_n 〈◊〉_d in_o many_o case_n to_o kill_v his_o beast_n as_o when_o they_o grow_v fierce_a and_o mad_a and_o destroy_v other_o aswell_o as_o to_o sustain_v the_o
