to_o publish_v the_o same_o the_o ●ext_n sunday_n after_o tender_v to_o they_o i_o think_v it_o too_o large_a to_o expose_v they_o all_o in_o print_n but_o i_o think_v it_o convenient_a to_o print_v the_o last_o of_o they_o and_o i_o shall_v mention_v particular_n of_o their_o resolve_n in_o the_o former_a with_o some_o observation_n thereon_o and_o then_o l●ave_a i●_n to_o the_o moderate_a to_o

that_o the_o maxim_n be_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o a_o dissenter_n not_o to_o be_v a_o rebel_n i_o may_v give_v a_o few_o word_n in_o answer_n hereunto_o it_o seem_v this_o to_o be_v the_o

men._n and_o in_o their_o preface_n to_o the_o ●irst_n order_n of_o the_o ten_o of_o january_n 1681._o they_o thus_o express_v themselves_o viz._n forasmuch_o as_o religion_n be_v the_o foundation_n of_o civil_a government_n and_o while_o faction_n and_o schism_n be_v allow_v and_o permit_v in_o the_o church_n we_o can_v never_o expect_v peace_n and_o quiet_a in_o the_o state_n and_o observe_v at_o this_o time_n as_o we_o have_v by_o sad_a experience_n heretofore_o that_o those_o that_o dissent_n from_o we_o in_o our_o establish_v religion_n of_o what_o persuasion_n soever_o though_o at_o

by_o this_o its_o manifest_a that_o be_v their_o maxim_n and_o ●o_o you_o may_v see_v what_o quarter_n the_o dissenter_n be_v like_a to_o have_v from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o in_o their_o order_n of_o the_o second_o of_o october_n 1683._o they_o thus_o express_v themselves_o we_o have_v be_v so_o abundant_o convince_v of_o the_o seditious_a and_o rebellious_a practice_n of_o the_o

of_o society_n and_o humanity_n itself_o wherefore_o that_o we_o may_v prevent_v their_o horrid_a conspiracy_n for_o time_n to_o come_v we_o resolve_v to_o put_v the_o severe_a of_o the_o law_n which_o we_o find_v too_o easy_a and_o gentle_a unless_o enliven_v by_o a_o vigorous_a execution_n in_o force_n against_o against_o they_o now_o observe_v o_o how_o horrible_a zealous_a and_o
