of_o this_o i_o maintain_v that_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a there_o be_v but_o two_o religion_n in_o the_o world_n one_o who_o doctrine_n be_v well_o found_v on_o scripture_n and_o reason_n but_o the_o moral_n impious_a and_o the_o maxim_n of_o ecclesiastical_a government_n tyrannical_a and_o tend_v to_o the_o oppression_n and_o ruin_n of_o prince_n and_o their_o dominion_n and_o that_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o other_o be_v abominable_a contrary_a to_o scripture_n and_o good_a sense_n but_o its_o moral_a practice_n good_a and_o its_o ecclesiastical_a government_n tend_v to_o the_o advantage_n of_o sovereign_n and_o their_o people_n to_o make_v country_n flourish_a rich_a and_o populous_a and_o maintain_v peace_n and_o tranquillity_n in_o they_o there_o be_v no_o man_n of_o sense_n but_o will_v confess_v the_o second_o religion_n will_v deserve_v the_o protection_n of_o the_o state_n better_o than_o the_o first_o so_o that_o if_o the_o protestant_n shall_v become_v idolater_n and_o heretic_n &_o teach_v transubstantiation_n purgatory_n the_o invocation_n of_o saint_n adoration_n of_o the_o half_a of_o one_o of_o the_o two_o sacrament_n and_o that_o of_o statue_n and_o image_n or_o such_o like_a doctrine_n their_o moral_n and_o maxim_n of_o ecclesiastical_a government_n remain_v the_o same_o as_o they_o be_v at_o present_a that_o be_v to_o say_v allow_v to_o god_n prince_n and_o people_n all_o their_o right_n as_o to_o what_o relate_v to_o moral_n and_o the_o government_n of_o church_n and_o state_n their_o religion_n shall_v better_o deserve_v the_o protection_n of_o the_o state_n than_o that_o of_o a_o church_n which_o shall_v detest_v transubstantiation_n purgatory_n etc._n etc._n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n by_o their_o maxim_n observation_n and_o tyranny_n fill_v the_o world_n with_o desolation_n and_o vice_n and_o ruin_v prince_n and_o people_n as_o the_o roman_a religion_n do_v so_o that_o it_o appear_v hence_o that_o the_o church_n and_o religion_n of_o rome_n be_v yet_o more_o abominable_a by_o their_o tyranny_n and_o moral_n than_o by_o their_o idolatry_n and_o error_n the_o pope_n and_o his_o clergy_n be_v more_o antichristian_a by_o the_o tyranny_n that_o they_o exercise_v over_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n the_o estate_n honour_n life_n and_o repose_n of_o prince_n and_o people_n than_o in_o regard_n of_o their_o speculative_a impiety_n and_o worship_n but_o i_o confess_v that_o the_o one_o can_v be_v without_o the_o other_o where_o there_o be_v such_o a_o horrible_a tyranny_n religion_n can_v long_o remain_v pure_a in_o doctrine_n and_o where_o the_o opinion_n be_v so_o monstrous_a their_o morality_n and_o church-government_n must_v needs_o become_v detestable_a and_o tend_v to_o the_o ruin_n of_o state_n i_o confess_v that_o in_o relation_n to_o god_n it_o be_v equal_o impossible_a according_a to_o scripture_n for_o private_a idolater_n and_o those_o that_o practise_v a_o morality_n destructive_a to_o society_n to_o be_v save_v so_o that_o in_o that_o respect_n the_o matter_n be_v equal_a but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o reference_n to_o the_o state_n experience_n teach_v we_o that_o there_o be_v idolater_n who_o be_v moral_o honest_a as_o to_o deal_n betwixt_o man_n and_o man_n and_o good_a countryman_n who_o deserve_v the_o protection_n of_o magistrate_n and_o that_o there_o be_v ill_a man_n among_o the_o orthodox_n who_o deserve_v to_o be_v cut_v off_o or_o chastise_v severe_o as_o murderer_n fornicator_n robber_n etc._n etc._n as_o to_o sovereign_n and_o all_o magistrate_n the_o good_a of_o the_o state_n be_v always_o prefer_v to_o that_o of_o the_o church_n as_o nature_n in_o order_n precede_v grace_n and_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n that_o of_o faith_n for_o the_o church_n can_v subsist_v without_o the_o state_n but_o the_o state_n can_v subsist_v well_o enough_o without_o the_o church_n hence_o it_o follow_v that_o disturber_n of_o the_o public_a peace_n and_o those_o that_o plunder_v and_o ruin_v people_n deserve_v better_a to_o be_v cut_v off_o or_o banish_v out_o of_o a_o country_n than_o idolater_n or_o heretic_n that_o do_v trouble_v the_o state_n and_o that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n who_o be_v guilty_a of_o both_o that_o be_v to_o say_v ruin_n state_n and_o be_v idolatrous_a deserve_v more_o to_o be_v destroy_v upon_o the_o former_a account_n than_o the_o latter_a history_n inform_v we_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o domineer_a and_o tyranny_n begin_v first_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n after_o which_o

use_v of_o what_o they_o call_v spiritual_a method_n to_o attain_v their_o end_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o sovereign_n ought_v to_o abhor_v they_o more_o for_o their_o ambition_n and_o tyranny_n
