sacrament_n be_v prostitute_v to_o countenance_n and_o encourage_v such_o fatal_a presumption_n as_o these_o to_o strengthen_v the_o hand_n of_o the_o vile_a and_o cause_v they_o to_o commit_v sin_n with_o all_o imaginable_a boldness_n and_o without_o any_o remorse_n shall_v we_o turn_v the_o cup_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n into_o the_o cup_n of_o devil_n as_o the_o apostle_n express_v it_o in_o 1_o cor._n 10.21_o not_o only_o by_o permit_v those_o who_o offer_v up_o themselves_o as_o sacrifice_n to_o the_o devil_n to_o drink_v of_o it_o but_o by_o make_v it_o as_o effectual_a to_o the_o promote_a the_o interest_n of_o satan_n as_o though_o he_o himself_o have_v real_o institute_v it_o 3._o because_o such_o a_o practice_n as_o this_o tend_v to_o the_o increase_v the_o number_n of_o the_o dissent_v conventicle_n for_o though_o they_o be_v not_o without_o faulty_a member_n as_o well_o as_o we_o yet_o it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o they_o be_v very_o careful_a to_o keep_v or_o purge_v out_o all_o that_o be_v open_o scandalous_a in_o their_o life_n we_o indeed_o excel_v they_o in_o our_o episcopal_a government_n the_o decency_n and_o order_n of_o our_o worship_n in_o the_o number_n of_o sober_a and_o learned_a clergy_n but_o in_o this_o particular_a we_o be_v more_o defective_a than_o they_o there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o of_o this_o unhappy_a leaven_n among_o they_o as_o there_o be_v among_o we_o so_o that_o many_o person_n of_o strict_a piety_n who_o be_v burden_v and_o grieve_v with_o this_o disorder_n will_v be_v tempt_v to_o desert_v we_o and_o join_v with_o they_o and_o they_o be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o the_o distinction_n of_o learned_a man_n will_v be_v more_o easy_o lead_v into_o such_o a_o error_n and_o if_o a_o speedy_a reformation_n be_v

in_o all_o her_o communicant_n and_o be_v influence_v by_o this_o we_o can_v with_o unconcern_v eye_n and_o heart_n behold_v these_o man_n at_o once_o profane_a the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o eat_v

from_o it_o our_o peace_n and_o benefit_n will_v be_v much_o great_a in_o our_o approach_n to_o it_o if_o we_o do_v not_o find_v there_o some_o who_o but_o a_o few_o hour_n before_o be_v venture_v
