that_o live_v in_o a_o commonwealth_n because_o the_o law_n be_v the_o public_a conscience_n by_o which_o he_o have_v already_o undertake_v to_o be_v guide_v i_o can_v find_v how_o to_o apply_v this_o

what_o he_o speak_v of_o a_o public_a conscience_n be_v a_o unheard_a of_o language_n and_o not_o proper_a to_o be_v apply_v to_o conscience_n and_o most_o undoubted_o only_o educeable_a out_o of_o

must_v needs_o be_v distract_v and_o no_o man_n dare_v to_o obey_v the_o sovereign_a power_n far_o than_o it_o shall_v seem_v good_a in_o his_o own_o eye_n in_o this_o clause_n he_o set_v down_o the_o mischief_n as_o he_o think_v which_o may_v happen_v to_o a_o commonwealth_n by_o diversity_n of_o conscience_n or_o opinion_n but_o before_o i_o proceed_v i_o will_v take_v notice_n of_o a_o mistake_n whereof_o he_o be_v guilty_a when_o he_o say_v that_o private_a conscience_n be_v but_o private_a opinion_n to_o this_o i_o say_v there_o may_v be_v such_o conscience_n which_o arise_v only_o out_o of_o private_a opinion_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v oversway_v with_o the_o great_a weight_n of_o public_a authority_n but_o there_o be_v other_o conscience_n which_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o the_o evident_a law_n of_o nature_n or_o clear_a text_n of_o scripture_n these_o be_v so_o strong_a foundation_n to_o build_v conscience_n upon_o that_o a_o conscience_n erect_v upon_o one_o or_o both_o of_o they_o can_v be_v shake_v by_o that_o which_o he_o call_v a_o public_a conscience_n howsoever_o it_o be_v a_o improper_a phrase_n use_v by_o ●im_a to_o call_v conscience_n opinion_n or_o science_n for_o it_o be_v rather_o a_o conclusion_n deduce_v out_o of_o either_o as_o i_o have_v show_v but_o then_o when_o he_o be_v angry_a in_o these_o politic_n with_o diversity_n of_o conscience_n or_o opinion_n as_o he_o term_v they_o i_o will_v fain_o have_v he_o consider_v how_o any_o commonwealth_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o make_v a_o law_n to_o regulate_v man_n thought_n for_o they_o can_v judge_v of_o they_o only_o by_o outward_a act_n it_o be_v only_a god_n who_o can_v search_v the_o heart_n and_o reins_o and_o therefore_o he_o only_o can_v make_v ●aws_n for_o they_o man_n may_v consine_n the_o external_a manage_n of_o opinion_n and_o conscience_n which_o be_v fit_a the_o legislative_a shall_v do_v in_o all_o such_o thing_n which_o may_v impede_fw-la or_o trouble_v the_o well_o government_n of_o a_o commonwealth_n and_o punish_v the_o expression_n of_o they_o but_o let_v all_o the_o power_n in_o the_o world_n make_v what_o law_n they_o can_v man_n will_v think_v what_o appear_v most_o reasonable_a to_o their_o understanding_n thought_n be_v far_o from_o the_o control_n of_o any_o leviathan_n whatsoever_o and_o although_o it_o be_v true_a in_o some_o part_n that_o distraction_n in_o commonwealth_n arise_v from_o diversity_n of_o opinion_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o true_a what_o he_o say_v the_o common_a wealth_n must_v needs_o be_v distract_v by_o they_o for_o so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v but_o opinion_n they_o do_v no_o harm_n but_o to_o those_o person_n who_o have_v they_o but_o if_o they_o justify_v their_o opinion_n to_o the_o withdraw_a other_o or_o themselves_o from_o obedience_n than_o they_o be_v dangerous_a and_o therefore_o the_o leviathan_n although_o he_o can_v know_v man_n conscience_n and_o therefore_o not_o judge_v of_o they_o must_v not_o make_v law_n for_o they_o yet_o because_o he_o can_v know_v and_o judge_v of_o the_o outward_a act_n which_o may_v distrub_v the_o peace_n he_o must_v be_v severe_a both_o in_o make_v law_n against_o and_o punish_v those_o fault_n yet_o i_o can_v choose_v but_o wonder_n how_o he_o who_o dare_v publish_v so_o many_o doctrine_n against_o all_o the_o leviathan_n
