by_o do_v it_o before_o a_o public_a repentance_n mr._n collier_n may_v now_o likewise_o perceive_v that_o the_o father_n of_o the_o church_n reflect_v upon_o the_o manner_n of_o his_o absolution_n as_o insolent_a and_o unpresidented_a and_o if_o he_o please_v to_o look_v into_o the_o commentaor_n he_o will_v find_v that_o the_o far_o great_a part_n be_v against_o his_o exposition_n of_o that_o place_n though_o it_o be_v not_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o absolution_n which_o be_v so_o much_o except_v against_o as_o that_o he_o shall_v have_v absolve_v they_o without_o public_a repentance_n and_o till_o he_o answer_v that_o material_a objection_n against_o it_o his_o little_a question_n whether_o all_o people_n be_v damn_v that_o be_v cast_v in_o a_o capital_a indictment_n etc._n etc._n be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n and_o his_o judgement_n that_o sir_n william_n have_v a_o right_n to_o absolution_n must_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o erroneous_a and_o whereas_o mr._n collier_n think_v it_o a_o sufficient_a apology_n for_o his_o do_v it_o public_o because_o he_o can_v not_o be_v admit_v to_o do_v it_o otherwise_o he_o will_v do_v well_o to_o observe_v that_o the_o publickness_n of_o the_o performance_n do_v only_o aggravate_v the_o fault_n but_o do_v not_o make_v it_o one_o and_o consider_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o party_n there_o be_v reason_n to_o think_v that_o the_o place_n of_o execution_n be_v choose_v as_o the_o most_o proper_a to_o harden_v the_o poor_a criminal_n in_o their_o obstinacy_n and_o to_o sound_v a_o trumpet_n to_o rebellion_n and_o assassination_n for_o certain_o to_o die_v a_o martyr_n for_o the_o cause_n of_o god_n and_o religion_n and_o to_o be_v recommend_v to_o the_o tribunal_n of_o heaven_n as_o such_o by_o by_o the_o church_n absolution_n be_v a_o very_a persuasive_a argument_n to_o make_v any_o man_n follow_v such_o course_n as_o will_v entitle_v he_o to_o those_o privilege_n mr._n collier_n assertion_n that_o he_o have_v go_v against_o the_o authority_n both_o of_o the_o ancient_n and_o english_a church_n if_o he_o have_v refuse_v sir_n william_n absolution_n be_v speak_v without_o book_n the_o very_a perusal_n of_o the_o office_n for_o visitation_n of_o the_o sick_a be_v enough_o to_o answer_v the_o objection_n as_o to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o let_v he_o produce_v any_o canon_n of_o the_o ancient_a church_n for_o give_v public_a absolution_n to_o a_o condemn_a criminal_a or_o a_o public_a offender_n without_o public_a repentance_n if_o he_o can_v mr._n collier_n ask_v so_o many_o little_a impertinent_a question_n about_o his_o be_v privy_a to_o sir_n william_n acknowledgement_n of_o his_o concern_v in_o the_o assassination_n that_o they_o argue_v his_o gild_n more_o than_o his_o innocence_n a_o ingenuous_a man_n will_v have_v plain_o tell_v whether_o he_o know_v of_o it_o or_o not_o and_o as_o for_o the_o 113th_o canon_n of_o the_o church_n by_o which_o he_o must_v have_v be_v pronounce_v irregular_a and_o by_o consequence_n uncapable_a of_o the_o priesthood_n ever_o after_o if_o he_o have_v reveal_v sir_n william_n be_v confession_n he_o may_v take_v for_o answer_n that_o if_o either_o that_o or_o any_o other_o canon_n of_o the_o church_n do_v encourage_v he_o to_o absolve_v condemn_v parricide_n and_o assassin_n without_o public_a repentance_n it_o be_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o state_n to_o nail_v they_o up_o but_o see_v so_o many_o of_o the_o bishop_n to_o who_o the_o clergy_n swear_v canonical_a obedience_n have_v declare_v he_o irregular_a already_o it_o be_v all_o one_o whether_o the_o canon_n roar_v or_o be_v silent_a the_o bishop_n have_v the_o chief_a power_n in_o make_v the_o canon_n and_o the_o best_a right_n to_o interpret_v they_o but_o without_o all_o this_o quibble_n mr._n collier_n can_v not_o but_o know_v that_o it_o be_v prove_v against_o sir_n william_n and_o that_o those_o upon_o who_o the_o same_o witness_n ha●_n prove_v the_o same_o crime_n confess_v it_o at_o the_o gallow_n which_o may_v have_v give_v mr._n collier_n ground_n enough_o to_o suspect_v sir_n william_n gild_n and_o by_o consequence_n to_o have_v move_v he_o to_o a_o special_a confession_n according_a to_o the_o rubric_n and_o then_o he_o have_v be_v in_o no_o hazard_n of_o the_o 113th_o canon_n nor_o any_o other_o of_o the_o gun_n which_o
