turn_n of_o be_v uppermost_a and_o then_o will_v be_v in_o a_o capacity_n of_o revenge_a themselves_o if_o you_o tolerate_v and_o give_v way_n to_o dissenter_n you_o contribute_v to_o their_o growth_n

so_o far_o back_o as_o queen_n marys_n reign_v to_o humble_v the_o church_n protestant_n with_o a_o prospect_n of_o their_o suffering_n he_o may_v have_v find_v a_o revolution_n no_o less_o

in_o the_o same_o article_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o same_o rule_n of_o manner_n in_o the_o apostle_n creed_n and_o the_o ten_o commandment_n there_o be_v one_o body_n one_o spirit_n one_o lord_n one_o

to_o love_v one_o another_o for_o the_o many_o thing_n wherein_o we_o agree_v than_o to_o fall_v out_o for_o those_o wherein_o we_o differ_v and_o though_o we_o can_v have_v communion_n in_o the_o

of_o cheat_n to_o represent_v thing_n of_o more_o or_o less_o moment_n not_o as_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o but_o only_o according_a to_o the_o occasion_n we_o have_v to_o make_v use_n of_o they_o when_o dissenter_n speak_v of_o toleration_n than_o we_o agree_v all_o in_o the_o main_a the_o difference_n be_v only_o about_o small_a matter_n and_o why_o shall_v not_o we_o indulge_v something_o to_o lesser_a mistake_n but_o if_o you_o desire_v they_o to_o take_v this_o argument_n back_o by_o the_o same_o weight_n and_o tell_v they_o that_o since_o we_o agree_v in_o the_o main_a why_o shall_v they_o be_v so_o unreasonable_a as_o to_o separate_v from_o we_o and_o to_o make_v or_o continue_v a_o perpetual_a breach_n for_o thing_n of_o little_a moment_n then_o they_o present_o change_v their_o note_n and_o every_o difference_n be_v of_o the_o high_a importance_n i._n e._n whatsoever_o they_o will_v have_v we_o to_o grant_v be_v but_o a_o slight_a matter_n but_o for_o they_o to_o yield_v any_o of_o those_o little_a thing_n be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o renounce_v the_o faith_n or_o to_o sacrifice_n to_o a_o idol_n now_o let_v we_o observe_v the_o truth_n and_o consequence_n of_o what_o be_v offer_v in_o this_o consideration_n all_o do_v agree_v as_o to_o the_o substance_n of_o christianity_n and_o in_o the_o same_o article_n in_o what_o substance_n in_o what_o article_n in_o all_o this_o be_v too_o much_o for_o we_o have_v some_o difference_n i_o think_v with_o the_o roman_a catholic_n about_o the_o infallibility_n of_o their_o church_n the_o supremacy_n of_o the_o pope_n the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n and_o these_o they_o take_v to_o be_v article_n of_o faith_n and_o of_o the_o substance_n of_o religion_n and_o we_o judge_v to_o be_v mistake_v very_o absurd_a and_o of_o long_a and_o dangerous_a consequence_n but_o we_o have_v the_o same_o apostle_n creed_n so_o we_o have_v the_o same_o scripture_n yet_o if_o they_o lie_v yet_o broad_a foundation_n and_o build_v upon_o it_o what_o faith_n they_o please_v how_o shall_v these_o their_o creed_n or_o scripture_n ever_o determine_v any_o difference_n about_o those_o additional_a article_n or_o what_o plea_n be_v it_o for_o indulgence_n that_o we_o agree_v in_o many_o point_n but_o that_o we_o differ_v in_o other_o of_o great_a importance_n as_o if_o a_o argument_n concern_v the_o obligation_n of_o nine_o of_o the_o commandment_n shall_v be_v a_o reason_n to_o permit_v the_o observation_n of_o the_o ten_o to_o discretion_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v rather_o consider_v the_o many_o commandment_n about_o which_o we_o agree_v than_o one_o or_o two_o perhaps_o short_a one_o which_o some_o tender_a conscience_n may_v desire_v to_o be_v indulge_v the_o socinian_o and_o we_o differ_v about_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o death_n about_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o trinity_n and_o many_o thing_n more_o of_o less_o moment_n but_o these_o thing_n sure_o be_v ever_o account_v of_o the_o substance_n of_o christianity_n and_o yet_o they_o make_v a_o difference_n between_o we_o and_o the_o socinian_o the_o quaker_n who_o resolve_v all_o their_o faith_n into_o the_o

when_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o can_v and_o have_v communion_n in_o the_o same_o internal_a adoration_n of_o the_o same_o bless_a trinity_n i_o can_v tell_v
