or_o prophesy_v for_o tithe_n or_o money_n or_o both_o as_o there_o be_v betwixt_o light_n and_o darkness_n and_o now_o i_o have_v something_o to_o propound_v unto_o all_o you_o clergyman_n before_o mention_v which_o do_v profess_v and_o say_v that_o you_o be_v true_a believer_n and_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o you_o follow_v christ_n and_o his_o minister_n for_o your_o example_n and_o that_o the_o scripture_n be_v your_o rule_n and_o guide_n for_o to_o walk_v by_o first_o where_o do_v you_o find_v or_o read_v in_o all_o the_o holy_a scripture_n of_o truth_n that_o any_o of_o the_o

for_o to_o be_v make_v minister_n of_o christ_n as_o you_o clergyman_n do_v and_o do_v now_o and_o when_o you_o have_v be_v several_a year_n at_o such_o school_n or_o college_n until_o you_o think_v that_o you_o be_v artist_n and_o be_v sufficient_a for_o to_o preach_v to_o people_n than_o you_o get_v a_o order_n to_o preach_v and_o so_o you_o come_v from_o those_o school_n into_o the_o country_n and_o inquire_v where_o there_o be_v a_o vacant_a place_n where_o there_o be_v no_o minister_n and_o then_o you_o endeavour_v to_o get_v that_o place_n for_o to_o preach_v at_o if_o you_o like_v their_o wage_n but_o if_o not_o than_o you_o inquire_v for_o to_o get_v a_o better_a place_n where_o there_o be_v most_o tithe_n or_o money_n which_o be_v worth_a so_o much_o by_o the_o year_n and_o this_o be_v your_o call_n to_o your_o ministry_n but_o the_o true_a minister_n of_o christ_n be_v never_o call_v nor_o make_v minister_n after_o such_o a_o way_n and_o manner_n as_o you_o be_v and_o be_v not_o this_o way_n of_o you_o in_o be_v make_v minister_n like_v unto_o a_o man_n that_o bind_v his_o son_n to_o be_v a_o apprentice_n with_o a_o tradesman_n for_o several_a year_n to_o learn_v

to_o set_v up_o his_o trade_n and_o to_o trade_n for_o himself_o without_o any_o opposition_n but_o these_o clergyman_n before_o mention_v exceed_v all_o the_o tradesman_n in_o the_o world_n that_o have_v any_o principle_n of_o honesty_n rule_v in_o they_o for_o when_o a_o honest_a tradesman_n sell_v his_o commodity_n he_o deliver_v it_o to_o they_o or_o some_o for_o they_o that_o buy_v it_o and_o pay_v for_o it_o but_o these_o covetous_a clergyman_n aforesaid_a sell_v their_o sermon_n for_o tithe_n or_o money_n or_o both_o and_o keep_v they_o still_o and_o do_v not_o deliver_v they_o to_o those_o that_o pay_v for_o they_o and_o when_o they_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o go_v to_o another_o town_n to_o preach_v they_o may_v have_v some_o of_o their_o old_a sermon_n still_o for_o to_o

which_o pay_v they_o so_o much_o every_o year_n for_o their_o preach_v which_o may_v amount_v to_o ten_o shilling_n or_o more_o for_o every_o sermon_n they_o preach_v throughout_o the_o whole_a year_n

into_o prison_n for_o not_o pay_v of_o they_o tithe_n or_o money_n for_o their_o preach_v as_o these_o ungodly_a covetous_a clergyman_n have_v do_v unto_o as_o these_o many_o year_n and_o still_o

of_o the_o devil_n who_o be_v a_o liar_n and_o a_o murderer_n from_o the_o beginning_n and_o now_o i_o shall_v mention_v and_o lay_v before_o you_o some_o of_o the_o cruelty_n and_o great_a persecution_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a clergy_n and_o some_o of_o their_o hearer_n and_o member_n of_o their_o church_n both_o in_o old_a england_n and_o in_o new-england_n which_o they_o have_v act_v and_o do_v against_o the_o people_n of_o god_n who_o be_v in_o scorn_n call_v by_o the_o world_n quaker_n first_o they_o have_v cast_v many_o of_o we_o into_o prison_n and_o there_o they_o have_v keep_v several_a until_o they_o die_v and_o by_o their_o mean_n and_o do_n they_o have_v take_v away_o the_o good_n and_o chattel_n of_o many_o of_o our_o friend_n both_o rich_a and_o poor_a to_o the_o value_n of_o many_o thousand_o of_o pound_n and_o this_o they_o do_v in_o oliver_n cromwell_n time_n and_o they_o proceed_v against_o we_o for_o not_o pay_v of_o they_o tithe_n and_o money_n for_o preach_v by_o a_o law_n which_o give_v they_o treble_a damage_n and_o they_o cause_v evil_a man_n for_o to_o come_v into_o our_o house_n and_o ground_n for_o to_o distrain_v our_o good_n and_o chattel_n which_o they_o do_v several_a time_n and_o sell_v our_o good_n and_o chattel_n and_o give_v the_o money_n to_o those_o tything_n hireling-priest_n and_o they_o sell_v our_o good_n &_o chattel_n at_o a_o undervalue_n and_o they_o take_v many_o time_n good_n and_o chattel_n from_o we_o which_o be_v worth_a above_o five_o time_n more_o than_o they_o call_v their_o due_n &_o thus_o they_o have_v do_v to_o many_o of_o we_o and_o they_o have_v cast_v several_a into_o prison_n for_o less_o than_o eighteen_o penny_n a_o piece_n at_o their_o own_o valuation_n which_o they_o say_v be_v their_o due_n and_o thus_o they_o have_v ruinate_v several_a of_o our_o friend_n and_o their_o family_n aforesaid_a in_o their_o estate_n beside_o the_o cruelty_n which_o they_o have_v inflict_v upon_o our_o body_n in_o cast_v many_o of_o we_o into_o prison_n and_o there_o they_o keep_v many_o until_o they_o die_v and_o thus_o cruel_o with_o much_o more_o cruelty_n which_o be_v here_o too_o tedious_a to_o mention_v have_v they_o act_v and_o do_v against_o we_o because_o we_o can_v not_o for_o good_a conscience_n sake_n uphold_v they_o in_o their_o ungodly_a way_n and_o practice_n as_o to_o pay_v they_o tithe_n and_o money_n for_o their_o preach_v as_o minister_n of_o christ_n as_o they_o and_o the_o people_n that_o hear_v they_o call_v and_o account_v they_o to_o be_v but_o christ_n come_v to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o that_o law_n and_o priesthood_n and_o covenant_n by_o which_o tithe_n be_v pay_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n and_o first_o covenant_n and_o have_v abolish_v it_o read_v heb._n 7._o 8_o 9_o 10._o and_o where_o do_v you_o find_v or_o read_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n that_o any_o of_o the_o true_a minister_n of_o christ_n take_v tithe_n or_o money_n for_o their_o preach_n or_o do_v ever_o any_o of_o the_o true_a believer_n and_o follower_n of_o christ_n pay_v tithe_n and_o whosoever_o they_o be_v that_o either_o take_v

now_o i_o have_v something_o more_o to_o mention_v of_o the_o wickedness_n and_o cruelty_n and_o murder_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a clergy_n and_o the_o professor_n and_o member_n of_o their_o

against_o the_o people_n aforesaid_a will_v not_o sati●fie_v their_o bloodthirsty_a spirit_n and_o now_o i_o desire_v all_o true_a christian_n who_o be_v true_a believer_n and_o lover_n of_o christ_n
