A86302	Respondet Petrus: or, The answer of Peter Heylyn D.D. to so much of Dr. Bernard's book entituled, The judgement of the late Primate of Ireland, &c. as he is made a party to by the said Lord Primate in the point of the Sabbath, and by the said doctor in some others. To which is added an appendix in answer to certain passages in Mr Sandersons History of the life and reign of K· Charles, relating to the Lord Primate, the articles of Ireland, and the Earl of Strafford, in which the respondent is concerned.

one_o of_o the_o exhortation_n before_o the_o communion_n where_o we_o find_v it_o thus_o viz._n and_o because_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o no_o man_n shall_v come_v to_o the_o holy_a communion_n but_o with_o a_o full_a trust_n in_o god_n mercy_n and_o with_o a_o quiet_a conscience_n therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o of_o you_o which_o by_o the_o mean_v aforesaid_a can_v quiet_v his_o own_o

weighty_a matter_n and_o then_o it_o follow_v that_o after_o such_o confession_n the_o minister_n shall_v absolve_v he_o in_o this_o manner_n viz._n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v leave_v
