chancellor_n declare_v to_o they_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o their_o public_a convention_n and_o ask_v the_o judge_n this_o follow_a question_n as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o in_o the_o very_a same_o word_n in_o the_o say_v learned_a judge_n report_v in_o the_o second_o year_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o king_n james_n whether_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n punishable_a and_o what_o punishment_n they_o

intimation_n to_o the_o king_n that_o if_o be_v deny_v their_o suit_n many_o thousand_o of_o his_o subject_n will_v be_v discontent_v whereto_o all_o the_o judge_n answer_v that_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n finable_a at_o discretion_n and_o very_o near_a treason_n and_o felony_n in_o the_o punishment_n for_o they_o tend_v to_o the_o raise_v sedition_n rebellion_n and_o discontent_n among_o the_o people_n to_o which_o resolution_n all_o the_o lord_n agree_v and_o then_o many_o of_o the_o lord_n declare_v that_o some_o of_o the_o puritan_n bid_v raise_v a_o false_a rumour_n of_o the_o king_n that_o he_o intend_v to_o gran_n a_o toleration_n to_o papist_n which_o offence_n the_o judge_n conceive_v to_o be_v heinous_o finable_a by_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o common_a law_n either_o in_o the_o king_n bench_n or_o by_o the_o king_n and_o his_o council_n or_o now_o since_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o three_o of_o henry_n the_o seven_o in_o the_o star-chamber_n and_o thelord_n several_o declare_v how_o much_o the_o king_n be_v discontent_v with_o the_o say_v false_a rumour_n and_o have_v make_v but_o the_o day_n before_o a_o protestation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v never_o

they_o and_o with_o oliver_n consent_n doubtless_o for_o he_o have_v find_v that_o those_o very_a non_fw-fr conformist_n who_o sedition_n help_v he_o into_o his_o power_n become_v after_o a_o short_a

now_o serious_o sir_n let_v i_o appeal_v to_o your_o own_o conscience_n and_o ask_v though_o you_o will_v not_o then_o believe_v i_o how_o easy_o will_v you_o have_v give_v credit_n to_o any_o

any_o reasonable_a probability_n for_o it_o dear_a cousin_n consider_v what_o i_o say_v and_o consider_v there_o be_v a_o great_a stock_n of_o innocent_a blood_n to_o be_v answer_v for_o not_o only_o the_o blood_n of_o our_o late_a virtuous_a king_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n and_o the_o lord_n strafford_n who_o death_n be_v occasion_v by_o the_o indiscreet_a

eat_v the_o bread_n of_o sorrow_n by_o be_v impoverish_v and_o undo_v by_o these_o troublesome_a pretender_n to_o conscience_n and_o which_o be_v worse_o there_o be_v a_o corruption_n of_o the_o

fury_n and_o zeal_n of_o the_o discontent_a restiess_n non_fw-fr conformist_n and_o they_o only_o and_o note_v that_o till_o then_o we_o know_v not_o the_o name_n of_o independent_a or_o of_o seeker_n or_o qusker_n cousin_n these_o be_v the_o sad_a effect_n of_o these_o busybody_n many_o of_o who_o god_n have_v still_o so_o blind_v that_o they_o can_v yet_o see_v the_o error_n they_o have_v run_v themselves_o and_o the_o nation_n into_o nay_o that_o will_v imbroil_v it_o again_o into_o great_a ruin_n than_o not_o be_v comply_v with_o in_o their_o peevish_a desire_n which_o they_o miscall_v tenderness_n of_o conscience_n dear_a cousin_n i_o will_v not_o say_v all_o but_o indeed_o too_o many_o of_o the_o man_n with_o who_o you_o comply_v and_o do_v so_o much_o magnify_v be_v too_o like_o simeon_n and_o levi_n that_o be_v brethren_n in_o this_o iniquity_n and_o as_o you_o love_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n in_o which_o you_o be_v baptise_a and_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o land_n in_o which_o you_o be_v bear_v and_o the_o law_n by_o which_o you_o enjoy_v what_o you_o have_v nay_o as_o you_o love_v the_o peace_n of_o your_o own_o soul_n draw_v back_o and_o let_v it_o not_o enter_v any_o more_o into_o their_o council_n or_o confederacy_n but_o at_o last_o take_v notice_n that_o though_o neither_o you_o nor_o any_o of_o your_o associate_n scruple_n at_o the_o sin_n of_o scbism_n or_o sedition_n but_o rush_v into_o it_o without_o consideration_n or_o fear_n even_o as_o a_o horse_n rush_n into_o the_o battle_n yet_o i_o pray_v take_v notice_n that_o st._n paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o galatian_n reckon_v it_o with_o the_o deed_n of_o the_o flesh_n even_o with_o murder_n and_o witchcrast_n which_o you_o so_o much_o abhor_v and_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o many_o think_v sedition_n a_o more_o heinous_a sin_n than_o they_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o more_o evil_a and_o destructive_a effect_n of_o it_o for_o murder_n may_v become_v so_o by_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o but_o one_o single_a person_n and_o witchcraft_n have_v its_o limit_n and_o bound_n set_v to_o it_o perhaps_o so_o as_o not_o to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o any_o man_n but_o only_o to_o do_v mischief_n to_o a_o single_a person_n or_o a_o family_n and_o must_v end_v there_o but_o who_o know_v the_o limit_n of_o sedition_n or_o when_o the_o fire_n be_v kindle_v which_o be_v intend_v by_o seditious_a man_n who_o can_v who_o be_v able_a to_o quench_v it_o and_o for_o some_o proof_n of_o the_o miserable_a effect_n of_o it_o though_o i_o may_v give_v you_o too_o many_o instance_n of_o they_o in_o former_a time_n yet_o i_o will_v only_o refer_v you_o to_o the_o late_a long_a parliament_n now_o fresh_a in_o memory_n and_o the_o woeful_a effect_n of_o that_o civil_a war_n beget_v and_o maintain_v by_o schismatical_a seditious_a discontenced_a man_n that_o believe_v themselves_o fit_a to_o be_v reformer_n when_o god_n know_v well_o they_o be_v not_o and_o for_o the_o sorrow_n you_o express_v for_o those_o man_n of_o tender_a conscience_n that_o be_v scandalize_v at_o wear_v a_o surplice_n kneel_v at_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n the_o cross_n in_o baptism_n and_o the_o like_a and_o will_v have_v they_o therefore_o take_v away_o that_o so_o many_o so_o learned_a and_o so_o godly_a man_n may_v by_o take_v they_o away_o be_v bring_v to_o a_o conformity_n and_o make_v capable_a of_o preach_v the_o gospel_n which_o otherwise_o they_o can_v do_v by_o be_v scandalize_v at_o these_o ceremony_n i_o now_o ask_v you_o what_o if_o more_o man_n and_o more_o learned_a man_n and_o more_o godly_a man_n and_o as_o tender-conscienced_n man_n shall_v be_v scandalize_v by_o their_o be_v take_v away_o what_o care_n will_v you_o or_o those_o of_o your_o party_n
