jew_n what_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v you_o be_v worse_o than_o the_o high_a priest_n be_v in_o christ_n day_n that_o accuse_v he_o before_o pilate_n for_o they_o have_v no_o example_n before_o they_o you_o be_v not_o their_o example_n but_o methinks_v they_o may_v be_v you_o remember_v what_o christ_n say_v to_o saul_n when_o he_o be_v a_o persecutor_n who_o do_v it_o out_o of_o more_o zeal_n than_o i_o fear_v you_o do_v why_o persecute_v thou_o i_o and_o say_v in_o another_o place_n he_o that_o do_v it_o to_o the_o least_o of_o these_o do_v it_o to_o i_o i_o think_v you_o have_v not_o prove_v these_o man_n i._n e._n the_o quaker_n to_o be_v false_a preacher_n if_o you_o have_v pray_v tell_v we_o when_o and_o how_o you_o do_v it_o we_o expect_v you_o will_v have_v do_v it_o in_o print_n and_o that_o with_o all_o expedition_n which_o will_v have_v be_v more_o serviceable_a to_o your_o cause_n than_o a_o blind_a certificate_n which_o give_v no_o certain_a knowledge_n of_o any_o thing_n and_o will_v only_o serve_v to_o please_v the_o simple_a and_o ignorant_a of_o our_o church_n as_o toy_n do_v fool_n and_o child_n the_o most_o material_a of_o which_o be_v not_o the_o matter_n but_o the_o company_n of_o name_n which_o be_v to_o it_o sure_o if_o your_o corner_n story_n you_o speak_v of_o give_v such_o full_a satisfaction_n and_o proof_n for_o the_o auditory_a to_o cry_v out_o blasphemy_n blasphemy_n it_o may_v have_v be_v extraordinary_a encouragement_n for_o you_o to_o proceed_v in_o your_o proof_n and_o that_o in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o sun_n which_o will_v look_v more_o honourable_a for_o you_o than_o a_o blind_a corner_n story_n which_o i_o know_v not_o any_o hear_v but_o yourselves_o the_o high_a priest_n have_v a_o judas_n at_o work_n for_o money_n to_o betray_v christ_n into_o their_o hand_n one_o that_o be_v a_o follower_n of_o christ_n that_o betray_v he_o for_o money_n have_v not_o you_o a_o judas_n at_o work_n now_o for_o money_n to_o betray_v the_o quaker_n one_o that_o be_v a_o follower_n of_o they_o pray_v where_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o these_o two_o traitor_n why_o the_o difference_n be_v twofold_a the_o first_o be_v a_o judas_n the_o latter_a a_o bugg_n second_o judas_n have_v thirty_o piece_n of_o silver_n which_o be_v pay_v by_o the_o high_a priest_n the_o latter_a have_v his_o money_n not_o only_o from_o the_o high_a priest_n but_o a_o recommendation_n also_o not_o only_o to_o the_o lesser_a priest_n throughout_o the_o diocese_n but_o the_o laity_n be_v desire_v to_o contribute_v to_o so_o good_a a_o work_n and_o now_o sir_n he_o be_v make_v a_o serviceable_a prop_n to_o our_o church_n but_o now_o i_o remember_v myself_o there_o be_v another_o thing_n in_o which_o these_o two_o traitor_n differ_v notwithstanding_o judas_n have_v make_v his_o bargain_n for_o thirty_o piece_n of_o silver_n when_o he_o have_v do_v his_o work_n horror_n and_o condemnation_n so_o sieze_v he_o that_o he_o bring_v back_o the_o money_n say_v he_o have_v betray_v the_o innocent_a which_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o those_o with_o he_o little_o matter_v when_o the_o work_n be_v do_v but_o say_v see_v thou_o to_o that_o and_o go_v and_o hang_v himself_o which_o show_v his_o sorrow_n and_o regret_n be_v there_o sorrow_n and_o regret_n in_o the_o latter_a we_o must_v leave_v event_n to_o he_o that_o be_v high_a than_o the_o high_a i_o will_v not_o meddle_v too_o far_o in_o that_o but_o desire_v the_o consideration_n of_o all_o that_o if_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o show_v any_o remorse_n on_o that_o nature_n whether_o they_o do_v not_o think_v he_o may_v meet_v with_o the_o same_o treatment_n his_o brother_n do_v i_o shall_v further_o say_v it_o be_v the_o end_n that_o crown_v all_o now_o sir_n a_o little_a further_o to_o consider_v do_v the_o quaker_n hold_v error_n how_o do_v you_o know_v it_o you_o be_v not_o competent_a judge_n you_o say_v you_o be_v full_a of_o rottenness_n from_o the_o crown_n of_o the_o head_n to_o the_o sole_a of_o the_o foot_n there_o be_v no_o soundness_n in_o you_o christ_n forbid_v such_o judge_n in_o these_o word_n thou_o hypocrite_n first_o cast_v out_o the_o beam_n that_o be_v in_o thy_o own_o eye_n than_o thou_o shall_v see_v clear_o the_o moat_n that_o be_v in_o thy_o brother_n eye_n have_v we_o not_o a_o vulgar_a say_n the_o kettle_n call_v the_o pot_n black_a you_o know_v yourselves_o to_o be_v as_o black_a within_o as_o without_o and_o so_o confess_v yourselves_o and_o your_o crime_n to_o be_v such_o in_o your_o daily_a action_n and_o for_o you_o to_o charge_v they_o look_v strange_a you_o may_v remember_v the_o word_n of_o st._n paul_n thou_o that_o say_v a_o man_n shall_v not_o commit_v adultery_n do_v thou_o commit_v adultery_n thou_o that_o abhor_v idol_n do_v thou_o commit_v sacrilege_n rom._n 2._o 22._o or_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v thou_o that_o say_v a_o man_n shall_v not_o blaspheme_n and_o do_v thou_o blaspheme_n you_o charge_v the_o quaker_n with_o blasphemy_n and_o be_v not_o that_o yery_n charge_v blasphemous_a in_o say_v the_o light_n within_o as_o teach_v by_o they_o lead_v they_o into_o these_o and_o many_o more_o error_n be_v christ_n the_o author_n of_o blasphemy_n you_o have_v now_o charge_v it_o upon_o he_o with_o a_o witness_n if_o we_o believe_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n in_o particular_a of_o himself_o who_o say_v john_n 8._o 12._o i_o be_o the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n he_o that_o follow_v i_o shall_v not_o walk_v in_o darkness_n but_o shall_v have_v the_o light_n of_o life_n see_v luke_n 2._o 32._o he_o be_v give_v for_o a_o light_a to_o enlighten_v the_o gentile_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o my_o people_n israel_n see_v luke_n 11._o 34._o and_o 16._o 8._o john_n 1._o 7_o 8_o 9_o all_o point_n out_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o light_n so_o that_o sir_n you_o have_v not_o only_o charge_v the_o quaker_n but_o christ_n too_o as_o high_a as_o you_o charge_v they_o be_v he_o ever_o charge_v high_o when_o personal_o on_o earth_n though_o he_o be_v then_o so_o charge_v pray_v who_o be_v it_o by_o by_o the_o priest_n i_o will_v warrant_v you_o matth._n 26._o 65_o 66._o what_o further_a need_n have_v we_o of_o witness_n behold_v now_o you_o have_v hear_v his_o blasphemy_n what_o think_v you_o they_o answer_v he_o be_v guilty_a of_o death_n what_o think_v you_o my_o master_n of_o those_o people_n that_o give_v sentence_n he_o be_v guilty_a of_o death_n be_v not_o this_o like_o your_o corner_n story_n of_o the_o people_n satisfaction_n from_o which_o they_o cry_v out_o blasphemy_n blasphemy_n you_o call_v christ_n your_o master_n and_o yourselves_o his_o minister_n if_o you_o be_v so_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v obey_v his_o command_n if_o you_o think_v the_o quaker_n be_v the_o tare_n and_o yourselves_o the_o weighty_a wheat_n which_o the_o people_n will_v and_o do_v judge_n you_o shall_v let_v they_o grow_v together_o till_o the_o harvest_n the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o in_o the_o time_n of_o harvest_n i_o will_v say_v to_o the_o reaper_n etc._n etc._n but_o you_o will_v not_o let_v they_o grow_v together_o if_o you_o can_v help_v it_o do_v not_o you_o contradict_v christ_n word_n and_o yet_o call_v he_o master_n he_o say_v he_o will_v say_v to_o the_o reaper_n you_o say_v you_o will_v do_v it_o yourselves_o by_o this_o he_o must_v not_o do_v his_o own_o business_n but_o you_o will_v do_v it_o for_o he_o like_o hang_v of_o man_n for_o god_n sake_n therefore_o by_o this_o pray_v who_o be_v master_n christ_n or_o you_o that_o you_o be_v so_o forward_o to_o do_v his_o work_n for_o he_o and_o such_o work_n as_o he_o have_v forbid_v you_o be_v it_o your_o great_a love_n to_o he_o or_o your_o great_a envy_n against_o the_o quaker_n that_o you_o can_v abide_v they_o any_o long_o in_o your_o sight_n if_o you_o can_v help_v it_o perhaps_o you_o will_v say_v the_o quaker_n make_v this_o i_o tell_v you_o the_o quaker_n know_v no_o more_o of_o my_o write_n it_o than_o yourselves_o for_o i_o be_o no_o quaker_n nor_o i_o think_v i_o never_o hear_v they_o preach_v six_o time_n in_o all_o my_o life_n but_o this_o i_o can_v satisfy_v you_o of_o that_o i_o have_v hear_v they_o but_o twice_o these_o six_o year_n neither_o have_v i_o join_v myself_o with_o any_o other_o religion_n but_o with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o if_o you_o come_v to_o prove_v yourselves_o christ_n minister_n i_o shall_v then_o never_o forsake_v you_o but_o love_n and_o respect_v you_o as_o such_o but_o if_o you_o do_v not_o nor_o can_v than_o i_o must_v remember_v the_o word_n of_o st._n paul_n to_o timothy_n where_o he_o say_v there_o shall_v come_v such_o have_v the_o form_n of_o godliness_n but_o deny_v the_o power_n thereof_o from_o such_o i_o must_v turn_v away_o if_o you_o do_v not_o meet_v and_o bring_v such_o witness_n as_o aforesaid_a i_o must_v with_o many_o more_o conclude_v you_o to_o be_v the_o man_n the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o that_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o godliness_n but_o deny_v the_o power_n therefore_o i_o dare_v do_v no_o other_o than_o turn_v away_o from_o you_o though_o you_o

prove_v uncurable_a as_o in_o jer._n 15._o 18._o now_o sir_n i_o shall_v draw_v to_o a_o conclusion_n desire_v you_o to_o take_v the_o advice_n of_o doctor_n gamaliel_n in_o these_o word_n you_o man_n of_o israel_n take_v heed_n to_o yourselves_o what_o you_o intend_v to_o do_v as_o touch_v these_o men._n let_v they_o alone_o for_o if_o this_o counsel_n or_o this_o work_n be_v of_o man_n it_o
