man_n perform_v his_o promise_n which_o he_o swear_v he_o will_v do_v it_o be_v no_o sin_n and_o it_o seem_v therefore_o to_o be_v speak_v only_o of_o promissory_a oath_n not_o of_o such_o which_o be_v make_v to_o give_v testimony_n of_o matter_n of_o fact_n if_o so_o then_o there_o be_v no_o prohibition_n of_o such_o oath_n which_o be_v for_o the_o decision_n of_o controversy_n common_o call_v assertory_n oath_n and_o then_o again_o it_o may_v just_o be_v conceive_v that_o they_o that_o be_v the_o jew_n think_v out_o of_o some_o tradition_n or_o other_o that_o it_o be_v only_o unlawful_a to_o swear_v by_o god_n but_o not_o by_o the_o creature_n for_o our_o saviour_n instance_n be_v only_o in_o they_o thou_o shall_v not_o swear_v by_o heaven_n by_o earth_n by_o jerusalem_n by_o the_o gold_n of_o the_o altar_n or_o thy_o head_n which_o he_o show_v relative_o to_o reach_v even_o the_o creator_n himself_o so_o that_o for_o these_o consideration_n it_o must_v be_v understand_v that_o it_o exclude_v not_o assertory_n oath_n which_o decide_v controversy_n that_o it_o extend_v not_o to_o such_o oath_n where_o god_n be_v religious_o call_v to_o witness_v any_o thing_n and_o then_o for_o the_o second_o the_o affirmative_a precept_n it_o reach_v to_o our_o communication_n and_o common_a conference_n one_o with_o another_o that_o god_n most_o sacred_a name_n be_v not_o slight_o or_o in_o vain_a take_v by_o we_o but_o that_o either_o some_o great_a business_n more_o than_o ordinary_a or_o else_o some_o supreme_a power_n must_v exact_v it_o from_o we_o so_o then_o this_o be_v thus_o expound_v it_o must_v needs_o appear_v that_o in_o this_o case_n a_o man_n may_v just_o depose_v his_o error_n and_o he_o can_v be_v necessitate_v to_o sin_n when_o he_o have_v a_o error_n in_o his_o conscience_n and_o true_o it_o be_v a_o excellent_a rule_n for_o the_o practice_n of_o a_o man_n life_n when_o he_o shall_v find_v a_o general_a practice_n of_o good_a and_o holy_a man_n in_o all_o age_n to_o practice_v any_o thing_n which_o he_o be_v offend_v at_o to_o suppress_v that_o averseness_n in_o himself_o and_o with_o study_n and_o pain_n to_o cast_v about_o which_o way_n he_o may_v reconcile_v himself_o to_o that_o common_a practice_n and_o not_o without_o strong_a and_o evident_a ground_n which_o will_v hardly_o be_v possible_a oppose_v that_o which_o the_o universal_a

to_o excuse_v himself_o with_o erravimus_fw-la cum_fw-la patribus_fw-la but_o in_o the_o other_o nothing_o but_o pride_n and_o self_n conceit_n which_o make_v he_o oppose_v these_o practice_n and_o sure_o in_o these_o case_n it_o be_v a_o safe_a rule_n for_o any_o man_n when_o he_o find_v a_o place_n of_o scripture_n which_o seem_o oppose_v the_o universal_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v and_o have_v be_v so_o heretofore_o to_o look_v about_o how_o that_o scripture_n may_v be_v expound_v according_a to_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n and_o good_a manner_n or_o usage_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n which_o then_o must_v be_v the_o sense_n and_o the_o other_o though_o more_o apparent_a at_o the_o first_o not_o the_o true_a meaning_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o shall_v

how_o can_v he_o judge_v that_o he_o do_v right_a or_o not_o unless_o he_o may_v judge_v it_o and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o law_n but_o what_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o civil_a he_o must_v judge_v whether_o his_o action_n be_v according_a to_o that_o or_o no_o when_o he_o act_n but_o mr._n hobbs_n acknowledge_v a_o superior_a law_n to_o that_o to_o wit_n the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o i_o

no_o with_o these_o superior_a law_n now_o in_o all_o these_o he_o must_v judge_v and_o be_v responsible_a for_o that_o judgement_n whether_o he_o judge_v by_o such_o rule_v as_o aught_o to_o guide_v a_o prudent_a man_n but_o he_o give_v a_o reason_n for_o what_o he_o speak_v for_o a_o man_n conscience_n and_o his_o judgement_n be_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o as_o the_o judgement_n so_o also_o the_o conscience_n may_v be_v erroneous_a this_o do_v not_o follow_v because_o he_o may_v err_v therefore_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v guide_v by_o it_o a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o false_a light_n show_v or_o his_o eye_n may_v be_v weak_a as_o our_o eye_n who_o be_v old_a man_n be_v must_v he_o therefore_o not_o make_v use_n of_o that_o light_n and_o sight_n which_o he_o have_v nay_o rather_o he_o must_v be_v more_o careful_a in_o the_o diligent_a use_v of_o his_o eye_n and_o more_o serious_o examine_v the_o light_n which_o be_v offer_v to_o they_o but_o in_o all_o these_o offer_n of_o reason_n which_o he_o make_v in_o this_o case_n they_o may_v be_v apply_v to_o that_o judgement_n which_o he_o must_v make_v concern_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n or_o the_o civil_a law_n which_o he_o allow_v a_o man_n must_v judge_v whether_o his_o action_n be_v according_a to_o they_o and_o what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o they_o as_o well_o as_o what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o positive_a law_n of_o god_n and_o he_o must_v and_o will_v if_o he_o be_v a_o virtuous_a man_n act_n according_o therefore_o say_v he_o though_o he_o that_o be_v subject_a to_o no_o civil_a law_n sin_v in_o all_o he_o do_v against_o his_o conscience_n because_o he_o have_v no_o other_o rule_n to_o follow_v but_o his_o own_o reason_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o he_o 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 discourse_n close_o to_o the_o question_n for_o he_o who_o be_v not_o embody_a in_o a_o commonwealth_n say_v he_o be_v rule_v by_o his_o reason_n but_o hark_v you_o that_o reason_n ought_v to_o be_v rule_v by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n according_a to_o his_o own_o doctrine_n and_o according_a to_o i_o by_o whatsoever_o be_v a_o know_v positive_a law_n of_o god_n likewise_o although_o there_o be_v no_o civil_a law_n and_o i_o will_v tell_v he_o far_o that_o no_o civil_a or_o politic_a law_n can_v have_v power_n to_o bind_v he_o to_o the_o breach_n of_o any_o of_o these_o and_o therefore_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 that_o before_o unheard_a of_o and_o most_o impossible_a principle_n of_o constitute_v a_o supreme_a which_o have_v be_v abundant_o confute_v in_o my_o former_a discourse_n let_v the_o reader_n take_v notice_n that_o i_o be_o now_o

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
