spiritual_a good_a and_o salvation_n he_o be_v so_o far_o tenacious_a of_o they_o as_o he_o apprehend_v their_o tendency_n to_o be_v to_o promote_v that_o but_o he_o be_v moderate_a in_o matter_n of_o opinion_n reconcileable_a to_o truth_n consistent_a with_o holiness_n and_o charity_n he_o contend_v not_o for_o or_o against_o these_o thing_n but_o with_o modesty_n and_o sobriety_n 3._o in_o matter_n of_o duty_n and_o practice_n such_o as_o respect_n god_n and_o man_n these_o stand_n in_o a_o different_a degree_n and_o according_a to_o their_o place_n in_o god_n commandment_n a_o

and_o pronounce_v he_o judge_v in_o himself_o according_a as_o god_n pronounce_v and_o will_v and_o nill_v according_a to_o his_o judgement_n and_o be_v obedient_a to_o his_o judgement_n he_o be_v a_o conscientious_a man._n and_o hence_o another_o true_a part_n of_o the_o character_n of_o a_o moderate_a man_n appear_v a_o moderate_a man_n be_v a_o true-hearted_a honest_a sincere_a conscientious_a man_n and_o therefore_o come_v into_o the_o rank_n of_o the_o best_a of_o men._n 3._o and_o by_o consequence_n his_o affection_n be_v the_o most_o orderly_a and_o regular_a he_o love_v that_o which_o be_v good_a approve_a and_o command_v of_o god_n hate_n that_o which_o be_v hateful_a disallow_v and_o forbid_v of_o god_n it_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n to_o moderate_v the_o affection_n and_o passion_n it_o be_v a_o work_n for_o grace_n vigilance_n prayer_n care_n and_o time_n a_o strait_a hand_n must_v be_v keep_v upon_o they_o with_o a_o watchful_a eye_n or_o they_o will_v fly_v out_o like_o a_o

know_v how_o to_o come_v upon_o we_o by_o surprise_n but_o no_o man_n sit_v so_o even_o in_o the_o saddle_n as_o a_o man_n of_o a_o moderate_a judgement_n if_o he_o can_v prevent_v their_o fly_v out_o he_o can_v soon_o restrain_v they_o and_o recall_v himself_o and_o if_o his_o affection_n be_v incline_v or_o hang_v by_o a_o partiality_n it_o be_v towards_o real_a good_a man_n and_o for_o that_o which_o appear_v in_o they_o which_o be_v most_o worthy_a of_o our_o strong_a love_n namely_o god_n and_o godliness_n and_o he_o be_v not_o inexcusable_a himself_o who_o be_v apt_a to_o excuse_v they_o who_o he_o hope_v god_n will_v pardon_v yet_o still_o his_o judgement_n be_v not_o pervert_v from_o a_o right_a judgement_n of_o sin_n and_o infirmity_n a_o moderate_a man_n be_v subject_a to_o commotion_n but_o he_o allay_v they_o soon_o and_o keep_v a_o eye_n and_o a_o guard_n upon_o they_o thus_o you_o have_v see_v his_o inside_n his_o head_n heart_n and_o affection_n the_o inward_a goodness_n of_o the_o best_a man._n now_o observe_v the_o moderation_n of_o 2_o dly_z his_o sensitive_a appetite_n god_n word_n reveal_v to_o he_o a_o kingdom_n a_o treasure_n a_o crown_n in_o the_o

all_o time_n and_o upon_o all_o occasion_n of_o difference_n and_o contest_v to_o give_v clear_a and_o palpable_a token_n of_o their_o moderation_n to_o all_o sort_n and_o condition_n of_o men._n still_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o object_n of_o moderation_n be_v all_o sort_n of_o man_n and_o that_o the_o subject_a matter_n upon_o which_o it_o be_v exercise_v be_v matter_n of_o difference_n and_o contest_v so_o he_o repeat_v his_o notion_n again_o pag._n 35._o and_o again_o pag._n 37._o now_o before_o i_o go_v further_o i_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o believe_v i_o that_o i_o approve_v of_o very_a much_o good_a matter_n well-spoken_a and_o well-applied_n but_o i_o fear_v prejudice_n and_o partiality_n weigh_v too_o heavy_a upon_o his_o bowl_n i_o do_v confess_v i●_n be_v a_o very_a good_a notion_n and_o doctrine_n that_o we_o shall_v manage_v all_o our_o difference_n with_o temper_n but_o why_o shall_v he_o single_a out_o this_o as_o the_o main_a if_o not_o whole_a of_o the_o text_n which_o be_v but_o a_o good_a behaviour_n in_o a_o particular_a case_n and_o but_o one_o instance_n of_o a_o general_a duty_n seem_v not_o so_o clear_a beside_o it_o be_v like_o it_o be_v too_o narrow_a a_o notion_n except_o a_o christian_a have_v or_o may_v have_v some_o matter_n of_o controversy_n or_o difference_n with_o all_o man_n and_o that_o all_o christian_n may_v have_v differ_v and_o contrary_a opinion_n and_o principle_n and_o each_o one_o be_v bind_v to_o maintain_v his_o own_o side_n with_o temper_n as_o he_o do_v often_o repeat_v his_o own_o sense_n of_o moderation_n so_o he_o do_v deliver_v a_o common_a but_o untrue_a notion_n of_o moderation_n in_o a_o lay_v and_o church-capacity_n from_o p._n 36_o to_o p._n 41._o and_o then_o give_v his_o reason_n against_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o moderation_n as_o he_o be_v please_v to_o describe_v to_o pag._n 48._o it_o will_v be_v too_o tedious_a to_o examine_v all_o the_o member_n and_o part_n of_o a_o moderate_a man_n in_o a_o lay-capacity_n but_o what_o be_v most_o material_a first_o do_v it_o become_v a_o moderate_a man_n to_o be_v so_o positive_a as_o to_o say_v after_o a_o imaginary_a oratorical_a description_n of_o a_o lay_v moderate_a man_n such_o as_o i_o and_o other_o never_o know_v this_o say_v the_o preacher_n be_v no_o fiction_n of_o i_o no_o creature_n of_o my_o fancy_n but_o matter_n of_o fact_n visible_a to_o every_o eye_n p._n 37._o that_o it_o be_v not_o difficult_a to_o prove_v such_o man_n act_n against_o their_o conscience_n for_o real_o a_o moderate_a man_n in_o the_o common_a notion_n if_o examine_v be_v but_o a_o soft_a phrase_n for_o a_o knave_n pag._n 48._o upon_o this_o character_n of_o a_o moderate_a layman_n draw_v pag._n 36._o i_o make_v some_o
