this_o i_o answer_v by_o demand_v a_o reason_n why_o the_o judge_n may_v condemn_v he_o to_o death_n that_o steal_v thirteen_o penny_n half_a penny_n and_o not_o he_o that_o steal_v one_o penny_n less_o if_o he_o answer_v because_o the_o law_n condemn_v one_o and_o not_o the_o other_o i_o ask_v again_o what_o reason_n be_v there_o that_o the_o law_n be_v make_v against_o the_o one_o and_o

he_o can_v shape_v i_o no_o answer_n touch_v a_o few_o egg_n glad_o he_o will_v seem_v to_o say_v something_o yet_o after_o he_o have_v weary_v himself_o with_o struggle_v against_o the_o truth_n he_o

a_o mere_a mockery_n he_o leave_v my_o argument_n untouched_a let_v we_o suppose_v for_o explication_n sake_n that_o egg_n worth_a thirteen_o penny_n half_a penny_n make_v a_o mortal_a sin_n and_o that_o god_n may_v just_o condemn_v he_o that_o steal_v they_o as_o also_o a_o mortal_a judge_n among_o mortal_a man_n let_v we_o likewise_o suppose_v for_o example_n sake_n that_o neither_o the_o

nay_o this_o be_v my_o assertion_n that_o there_o can_v no_o good_a reason_n be_v yield_v why_o god_n may_v just_o condemn_v the_o one_o to_o hell_n and_o not_o the_o other_o to_o answer_v as_o the_o

neither_o be_v it_o to_o the_o purpose_n to_o say_v as_o our_o jesuite_n do_v viz._n that_o the_o civil_a judge_n can_v condemn_v the_o thief_n that_o steal_v one_o penny_n less_o the_o reason_n be_v

appoint_v death_n for_o steal_v of_o twelve_o penny_n as_o for_o 13._o penny_n half_a penny_n for_o the_o penalty_n of_o death_n be_v whole_o arbitrary_a to_o the_o judge_n he_o must_v frame_v his_o

mortal_a against_o this_o false_a ground_n of_o popery_n do_v i_o now_o contend_v we_o have_v see_v already_o that_o a_o thief_n may_v as_o well_o be_v condemn_v to_o die_v for_o twelve_o penny_n as_o for_o more_o even_o so_o then_o god_n à_fw-la fortiori_fw-la may_v as_o just_o condemn_v one_o for_o a_o popish_a venial_a sin_n as_o for_o a_o mortal_a for_o every_o sin_n deserve_v death_n of_o it_o own_o nature_n be_v it_o more_o be_v it_o less_o yea_o if_o any_o sin_n shall_v of_o it_o own_o nature_n be_v venial_a they_o shall_v original_a sin_n in_o a_o infant_n be_v venial_a most_o of_o all_o because_o the_o infant_n neither_o can_v avoid_v it_o neither_o have_v any_o will_n to_o do_v it_o i_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v against_o all_o sense_n and_o reason_n to_o say_v that_o god_n may_v just_o condemn_v a_o man_n for_o steal_v so_o many_o egg_n as_o in_o popery_n make_v a_o mortal_a si●n●_n let_v they_o name_v what_o number_n they_o will_v and_o that_o he_o can_v
