that_o you_o talk_v so_o much_o of_o they_o be_v as_o proud_a and_o as_o peevish_a as_o other_o they_o be_v as_o unjust_a as_o other_o for_o shame_n let_v it_o never_o be_v say_v so_o of_o you_o but_o if_o you_o think_v you_o have_v any_o godliness_n express_v it_o then_o why_o show_v it_o then_o the_o fire_n can_v be_v without_o light_n the_o sun_n without_o heat_n so_o if_o grace_n be_v in_o

they_o submit_v not_o they_o close_v not_o therewith_o as_o a_o servant_n that_o deny_v such_o a_o man_n to_o be_v his_o master_n and_o the_o master_n deny_v such_o a_o one_o to_o be_v his_o servant_n when_o the_o one_o will_v not_o own_o the_o other_o so_o hypocrite_n deal_v with_o the_o virtue_n of_o grace_n &_o power_n of_o holiness_n they_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n bear_v the_o authority_n of_o

in_o their_o judgement_n when_o they_o will_v not_o assent_v to_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o acknowledge_v the_o necessity_n of_o godliness_n when_o they_o say_v i_o hope_v a_o man_n

strictness_n that_o minister_n call_v for_o and_o require_v this_o be_v to_o deny_v it_o in_o your_o judgement_n second_o in_o your_o will_n and_o heart_n when_o the_o will_n and_o affection_n will_v not_o submit_v themselves_o to_o be_v frame_v and_o order_v and_o dispose_v by_o the_o power_n of_o godliness_n you_o will_v be_v proud_a and_o peevish_a etc._n etc._n and_o will_v walk_v in_o your_o

be_v certain_a his_o heart_n be_v naught_o this_o rule_n will_v never_o deceive_v you_o now_o we_o come_v to_o show_v the_o cause_n why_o a_o company_n of_o hypocrite_n can_v swallow_v down_o profession_n but_o these_o will_v only_o compliment_v with_o godliness_n but_o away_o with_o the_o power_n of_o it_o because_o godliness_n and_o the_o reason_n 1_o power_n of_o it_o where_o it_o
