Divided into ten sections, comprising severall most libellous, scandalous, seditious, insolent, uncharitable, (and some blasphemous) passages; published in late unlicensed printed pamphlets, against the ecclesiasticall jurisdiction and power of parliaments, councels, synods, Christian kings and magistrates, in generall; the ordinances and proceedings of this present Parliament, in speciall: the national covenant, assembly, directory, our brethren of Scotland, Presbyterian government; the Church of England, with her ministers, worship; the opposers of independent novelties; ... Whereunto some letters and papers lately sent from the Sommer-Islands, are subjoyned, relating the schismaticall, illegal, tyrannical proceedings of some Independents there, in gathering their new-churches, to the great distraction and prejudice of that plantation. / Published for the common good by William Prynne of Lincolnes Inne, Esquire.

to_o a_o understand_a man_n they_o will_v easy_o appear_v to_o be_v of_o small_a value_n as_o will_v be_v more_o evident_a in_o answer_v they_o particular_o which_o i_o shall_v ready_o do_v if_o it_o

to_o a_o due_a consideration_n of_o what_o we_o do_v i_o shall_v only_o answer_v in_o general_n it_o be_v a_o say_n of_o divine_n agreeable_a also_o to_o the_o experience_n of_o good_a christian_n that_o satan_n never_o tempt_v more_o dangerous_o whether_o by_o himself_o or_o other_o then_o when_o he_o do_v most_o persuade_v we_o not_o to_o resist_v his_o temptation_n but_o to_o yield_v ourselves_o to_o they_o and_o even_o the_o lord_n himself_o do_v sometime_o prove_v his_o church_n and_o people_n whether_o they_o will_v cleave_v unto_o he_o that_o be_v hold_v fast_o to_o his_o word_n or_o unto_o other_o lord_n other_o light_n other_o spirit_n beside_o he_o 19_o as_o deuter._n 13._o 3._o and_o so_o the_o apostle_n foretell_v there_o shall_v be_v schism_n and_o heresy_n in_o the_o church_n as_o for_o there_o must_v be_v heresy_n even_o among_o you_o 1â—_n that_o they_o which_o be_v approve_v among_o you_o may_v be_v know_v and_o so_o but_o there_o be_v false_a prophet_n also_o among_o the_o people_n even_o as_o there_o shall_v be_v false_a teacher_n among_o you_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o take_v up_o our_o religion_n upon_o the_o credit_n of_o man_n how_o great_a soever_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v but_o examine_v thing_n by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o see_v that_o it_o be_v firm_o ground_v there_o to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n if_o they_o speak_v not_o according_a to_o this_o word_n it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v no_o light_n in_o they_o therefore_o they_o must_v prove_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n not_o by_o outward_a sign_n and_o wonder_n the_o thing_n they_o teach_v and_o will_v have_v practise_v and_o first_o let_v we_o know_v they_o full_o and_o with_o those_o noble_a berean_o search_v the_o scripture_n and_o

in_o the_o world_n as_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v a_o heaven_n upon_o earth_n the_o lord_n grant_v it_o and_o hasten_v it_o but_o withal_o let_v we_o desire_v and_o expect_v these_o thing_n with_o sobriety_n and_o watchfulness_n lest_o whilst_o our_o eye_n be_v take_v up_o and_o dazzle_v with_o a_o present_a expectation_n of_o these_o high_a and_o glorious_a thing_n we_o see_v not_o the_o
