A96893	Inquiries into the causes of our miseries, whence they issue-forth upon us: and reasons wherefore they have born us down so low; and are like to carrie us yet lower. The Independents and the way of worship, they stand-up for, is renderd clear of this grievous charge... This charge is drawn-up against the Independents, by three worthies, men, I think, of name, all (I) D.P.P.W. Pryn Esquire; but more fully and with more devouring words, if more can be, by Dr. A. Steuart in his last book... In six sections. Whereof the first onely is here; a just vindication of the way of worship very commonly misunderstood; very falsly interpreted; but very truly called Independent... By Hez.

plead_v for_o such_o a_o religion_n they_o plead_v for_o a_o toleration_n of_o that_o religion_n or_o way_n of_o worship_n which_o they_o be_v persuade_v in_o their_o soul_n drawes-nee_a to_o god_n and_o for_o toleration_n of_o these_o man_n among_o we_o who_o have_v ever_o live_v peaceable_o with_o we_o have_v speak_v good_a thing_n for_o we_o before_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n who_o doctrine_n have_v come-up_a full_o to_o the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n and_o their_o conversation_n also_o as_o become_v the_o gospel_n now_o god_n forbid_v that_o any_o rough-hand_n shall_v be_v putforth_a against_o these_o man_n yea_o god_n forgive_v our_o hard_a word_n and_o unchristian_a thought_n that_o way_n a._n but_o sure_o many_o who_o we_o call_v and_o they_o call_v themselves_o independent_a do_v think_v themselves_o exempt_a from_o all_o law_n except_o that_o law_n which_o rule_v in_o their_o member_n and_o think_v as_o the_o nimrods_n and_o giant_n of_o the_o world_n do_v think_v

so_o they_o do_v not_o think_v but_o this_o i_o know_v that_o many_o walk_v disorderly_a loose_a from_o their_o god_n the_o gospel_n and_o way_n of_o his_o worship_n but_o if_o there_o be_v any_o who_o understand_v independency_n so_o let_v they_o be_v as_o odious_a and_o abominable_a in_o man_n eye_n as_o the_o giant_n and_o nimrods_n of_o the_o world_n mighty_a hunter_n before_o the_o lord_n

unto_o abominable_a way_n of_o error_n not_o to_o be_v remember_v here_o i_o answer_v b._n this_o may_v be_v and_o yet_o the_o way_n good_a and_o holy_a yea_o a_o argument_n all_o this_o of_o the_o

the_o apostle_n and_o light_o come_v light_o go_v say_v the_o proverb_n these_o enter_v upon_o the_o way_n without_o due_a consideration_n upon_o very_o light_a motion_n before_o they_o weigh_v and_o

i_o go_v in_o obedience_n thereunto_o crave_v a_o licence_n though_o i_o think_v it_o my_o due_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v give_v i_o but_o can_v not_o obtain_v it_o the_o truth_n be_v if_o the_o book_n

have_v this_o answer_n from_o he_o and_o assistance_n from_o his_o right_a hand_n so_o guide_v i_o that_o i_o shall_v so_o i_o hope_v and_o be_o confident_a speak_v nothing_o which_o shall_v

perhaps_o but_o their_o superstition_n teach_v be_v wont_a to_o do_v to_o inquire_v into_o a_o paper_n which_o lie_v as_o low_a as_o their_o foot_n before_o they_o will_v put_v their_o foot_n upon_o
