thou_o know_v likewise_o there_o be_v doctrine_n of_o worship_n and_o doctrine_n of_o discipline_n in_o that_o holy_a religion_n w._n well!_o j._n now_o if_o our_o dissenter_n at_o home_n to_o speak_v the_o naked_a truth_n and_o some_o of_o the_o reform_a abroad_o subtract_v these_o doctrine_n from_o the_o total_a account_n or_o at_o best_o be_v corrupt_v and_o deficient_a in_o what_o will_v you_o

now_o you_o talk_v too_o severe_a j._n it_o be_v no_o severity_n but_o plain_a honest_a sense_n for_o if_o man_n will_v not_o be_v of_o the_o true_a church_n they_o be_v not_o of_o the_o true_a church_n but_o those_o who_o reject_v the_o necessary_a term_n of_o communion_n with_o the_o catholic_n church_n can_v never_o be_v sound_a member_n of_o we_o as_o far_o as_o they_o corrupt_v or_o make_v void_a the_o essential_o of_o the_o true_a communion_n of_o saint_n this_o i_o shall_v think_v a_o plain_a case_n and_o though_o it_o be_v confess_v indeed_o something_o may_v be_v give_v to_o mistake_v mind_n who_o strength_n of_o understanding_n can_v reach_v the_o strength_n of_o those_o argument_n on_o which_o these_o substantial_a matter_n do_v depend_v and_o therefore_o our_o wise_a

oblige_v to_o be_v instruct_v by_o their_o own_o proper_a guide_n and_o not_o by_o every_o corner-creeper_n who_o neither_o can_v justify_v his_o ministry_n or_o his_o doctrine_n who_o may_v talk_v blasphemy_n at_o his_o pleasure_n and_o no_o man_n in_o the_o meet_v capable_a to_o contradict_v he_o who_o may_v trump_n up_o sedition_n bold_o and_o have_v enough_o to_o side_n with_o he_o who_o with_o a_o whine_a cant_n may_v pretend_v to_o inspiration_n whenas_o his_o discourse_n be_v so_o far_o from_o that_o as_o to_o be_v no_o better_o than_o plain_a downright_a nonsense_n and_o as_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o these_o be_v the_o circumstance_n of_o many_o thousand_o of_o our_o delude_a brethren_n thus_o carry_v away_o by_o the_o slight_a of_o man_n so_o i_o can_v hearty_o wish_v some_o mean_n may_v be_v find_v out_o to_o reconcile_v our_o difference_n and_o create_v 14._o create_v p._n 14._o a_o hearty_a union_n among_o protestant_n that_o so_o such_o person_n may_v be_v

the_o name_n of_o the_o establish_v church_n and_o you_o may_v observe_v withal_o that_o our_o episcopacy_n our_o liturgy_n our_o ceremony_n and_o our_o discipline_n be_v leave_v by_o they_o in_o very_a near_o the_o same_o form_n they_o now_o be_v and_o you_o know_v will_n that_o some_o of_o they_o be_v bishop_n themselves_o w._n well_o jack_n upon_o grant_v you_o all_o this_o you_o still_o see_v the_o dissenter_n 6._o dissenter_n p._n 6._o on_o condition_n they_o subscribe_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n be_v qualify_v for_o office_n of_o power_n and_o trust_n j._n true_o will._n but_o i_o have_v prove_v already_o how_o far_o they_o own_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o reformation_n and_o i_o observe_v far_o that_o they_o be_v not_o qualify_v as_o church_n of_o england_n man_n but_o as_o they_o be_v englishman_n by_o subscribe_v to_o her_o article_n except_o three_o only_a they_o be_v by_o virtue_n thereof_o admit_v to_o office_n this_o be_v the_o full_a sum_n of_o that_o matter_n but_o you_o err_v friend_n if_o you_o reckon_v they_o of_o 12._o of_o p._n 12._o that_o body_n of_o protestant_n who_o be_v know_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n since_o you_o see_v they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o but_o obstinate_o refuse_v communion_n with_o her_o and_o you_o know_v very_o well_o the_o three_o article_n exempt_v such_o from_o acknowledge_v her_o liturgy_n her_o homily_n and_o the_o form_n of_o consecration_n of_o her_o ministry_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a thing_n we_o differ_v about_o and_o the_o cause_n of_o their_o schism_n from_o our_o primitive_a reformation_n so_o that_o such_o person_n as_o reject_v these_o be_v not_o by_o virtue_n of_o such_o subscribe_v render_v thereby_o member_n of_o her_o religious_a body_n since_o they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o but_o declare_v against_o her_o original_a reformation_n what_o can_v you_o make_v more_o of_o it_o and_o therefore_o no_o dissenter_n however_o qualify_v can_v
