guilty_a of_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o text_n you_o quote_v against_o surfeit_v and_o drunkenness_n luk._n 21._o 34._o that_o part_n of_o your_o paragraph_n therefore_o which_o end_v in_o exhortation_n be_v a_o piece_n of_o homily_n which_o return_v to_o you_o to_o be_v make_v use_n of_o towards_o some_o other_o on_o the_o next_o last_n wednesday_n of_o the_o month_n where_o fast_v and_o sobriety_n will_v be_v seasonable_a theme_n i_o grant_v sir_n that_o reprobation_n be_v a_o mystery_n to_o be_v tremble_v at_o yet_o sir_n all_o they_o who_o maintain_v it_o to_o be_v absolute_a do_v revive_v the_o fiction_n of_o the_o three_o destiny_n where_o one_o hold_v the_o distaff_n on_o which_o the_o thread_n of_o every_o man_n fate_n be_v spin_v and_o do_v preach_v a_o piece_n of_o zeno_n philosophy_n for_o a_o piece_n of_o saint_n paul_n epistle_n can_v have_v no_o reason_n to_o accuse_v i_o of_o a_o jest_n because_o i_o apply_v a_o spindle_n to_o the_o distaff_n on_o which_o man_n fate_n be_v roll_v sir_n in_o plain_a term_n as_o absolute_a reprobation_n be_v a_o piece_n of_o stoicism_n which_o be_v never_o hold_v to_o be_v christian_a till_o it_o creep_v forth_o into_o the_o church_n from_o the_o same_o fancy_n which_o be_v the_o womb_n in_o which_o the_o presbyterian_a government_n be_v form_v so_o i_o think_v lucian_n sir_n how_o cheap_o soever_o you_o think_v of_o he_o or_o i_o for_o have_v close_v my_o last_o letter_n to_o you_o with_o a_o piece_n of_o his_o nigrinus_n in_o his_o confutation_n of_o this_o heathenish_a error_n which_o have_v make_v so_o many_o hang_v themselves_o urge_v argument_n which_o will_v become_v one_o of_o the_o father_n of_o the_o church_n i_o know_v not_o whether_o you_o have_v read_v his_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d but_o if_o you_o have_v he_o there_o tell_v you_o that_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o the_o fatal_a decree_n you_o speak_v of_o 1._o that_o all_o they_o who_o lie_v under_o the_o inflexibility_n of_o it_o be_v tie_v by_o a_o unalterable_a necessity_n to_o do_v what_o they_o do_v can_v in_o no_o reason_n be_v reward_v if_o they_o do_v well_o nor_o with_o any_o justice_n be_v punish_v if_o they_o do_v ill_a next_o that_o the_o sin_n which_o they_o commit_v if_o they_o can_v but_o commit_v they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v call_v their_o sin_n but_o the_o sin_n of_o that_o decree_n which_o lay_v this_o necessity_n upon_o they_o and_o therefore_o three_o that_o a_o murderer_n thus_o predestine_v if_o he_o shall_v be_v arraign_v may_v say_v to_o any_o judge_n thus_o stoical_o persuade_v why_o do_v you_o accuse_v i_o pray_v call_v my_o destiny_n to_o the_o bar_n and_o do_v not_o sentence_v i_o but_o my_o fate_n to_o the_o rack_n and_o wheel_n i_o be_v but_o a_o oversway_v instrument_n in_o this_o murder_n and_o be_v but_o such_o a_o engine_n to_o my_o destiny_n as_o my_o sword_n be_v to_o i_o though_o this_o be_v speak_v by_o a_o heathen_a only_o in_o disproof_n of_o fate_n yet_o since_o saint_n chrysostome_n in_o more_o than_o three_o sermon_n have_v say_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o disproof_n of_o absolute_a reprobation_n i_o hope_v sir_n neither_o calvin_n nor_o piscator_fw-la have_v so_o mistaught_a you_o to_o understand_v saint_n paul_n as_o from_o any_o epistler_n of_o he_o to_o conclude_v peremptory_o that_o anywithout_v their_o desert_n be_v give_v up_o to_o a_o reprobate_a mind_n and_o final_o strike_v &_o necessitate_v to_o a_o remediless_a impenitence_n the_o 9_o chap._n of_o the_o roman_n i_o have_v long_o since_o consider_v and_o study_v it_o by_o the_o most_o ser●…_n impartial_a light_n which_o may_v uncloud_v the_o great_a mystery_n to_o i_o which_o lie_v so_o obscure_o there_o wrap_v up_o and_o to_o deal_v free_o with_o you_o the_o best_a commentator_n i_o ever_o yet_o meet_v with_o to_o lead_v i_o through_o the_o darkness_n of_o it_o be_v another_o place_n of_o scripture_n or_o two_o set_v in_o

egyptian_n but_o a_o pillar_n of_o fire_n to_o the_o israelite_n sir_n i_o know_v that_o neither_o saint_n paul_n have_v write_v contradiction_n nor_o any_o other_o of_o the_o apostle_n write_v that_o which_o be_v contradictory_n to_o saint_n paul_n sir_n i_o presume_v also_o that_o aristotle_n book_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d have_v not_o so_o forsake_v your_o memory_n but_o you_o know_v that_o a_o universal_a affirmative_a and_o a_o particular_a negative_a be_v a_o perfect_a contradiction_n and_o can_v both_o be_v true_a here_o then_o stand_v the_o case_n you_o build_v your_o opinion_n upon_o the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o great_a depth_n of_o the_o nine_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n infer_v from_o thence_o that_o god_n give_v repentance_n only_o to_o some_o few_o who_o peremptory_a will_n it_o be_v that_o they_o only_o shall_v be_v save_v saint_n paul_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n chapter_n 2._o vers_fw-la 4._o give_v we_o a_o line_n and_o plummet_n to_o sound_v this_o depth_n and_o say_v express_o that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o all_o man_n shall_v be_v save_v between_o these_o proposition_n it_o be_v his_o will_n that_o all_o shall_v and_o it_o be_v his_o will_n that_o only_o a_o few_o shall_v be_v save_v there_o be_v no_o medium_fw-la in_o which_o they_o may_v be_v reconcile_v but_o one_o of_o they_o must_v necessary_o be_v true_a the_o other_o false_a this_o then_o be_v so_o i_o have_v always_o hold_v it_o safe_a to_o build_v my_o faith_n upon_o those_o clear_a place_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o have_v no_o veil_n before_o their_o face_n than_o those_o which_o be_v mysterious_a and_o lead_v i_o to_o a_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d over_o which_o i_o stand_v amaze_v but_o can_v from_o thence_o infer_v i_o do_v far_o profess_v to_o you_o that_o i_o be_o not_o so_o wed_v to_o this_o or_o any_o other_o speculative_a opinion_n but_o that_o if_o you_o will_v show_v more_o convince_a scripture_n for_o the_o contrary_a i_o shall_v most_o ready_o renounce_v my_o own_o thought_n and_o espouse_v myself_o to_o you_o your_o premonition_n or_o forewarn_n of_o i_o that_o we_o at_o christchurch_n will_v ever_o long_o taste_v of_o a_o visitation_n have_v since_o come_v to_o pass_v and_o in_o part_n approve_v itself_o to_o be_v true_a prophecy_n whether_o inspire_v by_o you_o or_o no_o i_o know_v not_o but_o there_o have_v be_v two_o with_o we_o who_o have_v take_v away_o as_o many_o cope_n and_o guilt_n candlestick_n as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v superstitious_a sir_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n to_o i_o that_o in_o our_o time_n silver_n shall_v be_v popery_n or_o that_o church_n utensill_n if_o they_o be_v gold_n shall_v be_v call_v superstition_n but_o certain_o sir_n it_o be_v a_o great_a misinformation_n to_o send_v they_o to_o search_v for_o copes_n or_o thing_n of_o value_n to_o my_o poor_a protestant_a chamber_n where_o there_o never_o be_v a_o cope_n though_o perhaps_o they_o may_v have_v find_v a_o long-disused_n surplice_n there_o and_o as_o for_o idol_n of_o price_n if_o they_o have_v search_v my_o purse_n i_o believe_v that_o all_o the_o popery_n which_o in_o these_o impoverish_n time_n they_o can_v have_v find_v in_o it_o cast_v into_o the_o fire_n like_o the_o jewish_a earring_n will_v neither_o have_v come_v forth_o a_o silver_n crucifix_n much_o less_o so_o wealthy_a a_o idol_n as_o a_o golden_a calse_a sir_n since_o at_o length_n i_o understand_v you_o that_o by_o agree_v upon_o the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o question_n before_o we_o
