A91887 Some few considerations propounded, as so many scruples by Mr. Henry Robinson in a letter to Mr. Iohn Dury upon his epistolary discourse: with Mr. Duryes answer thereunto. VVherein is observable with what overtures of spirit they endeavour to edifie each other, not withstanding their differing judgements and opinions about the Independent and Presbyterian way. Published by a well-willer to peace and truth, in expectation that it may no little conduce, either to the reconciling of such controversies, or to the debating them with lesse noise and bitternesse. Whereunto is annexed another epistolary discourse, written by Mr. John Dury, to a worthy knight, concerning the principles of meditation: from which rules may be gathered to direct men to order their thoughts, so as to finde a resolution of all their doubts. Robinson, Henry, 1605?-1664?; Dury, John, 1596-1680.; Well-Willer to Peace and Truth. 1646 (1646) Wing R1679; Thomason E345_1; ESTC R200979 39,103 49

confusion_n i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o he_o can_v make_v a_o doubt_n of_o this_o viz._n that_o the_o mean_n to_o order_v our_o thought_n shall_v be_v some_o rule_n or_o other_o according_a to_o which_o the_o understanding_n shall_v proceed_v in_o work_v upon_o itself_o and_o then_o concern_v the_o three_o in_o like_a manner_n if_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o where_o order_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v there_o a_o rule_n may_v be_v use_v it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o in_o order_v thing_n by_o rule_n principle_n must_v be_v observe_v whence_o the_o rule_n be_v to_o be_v take_v for_o

reason_n why_o the_o precedency_n and_o consecution_n ought_v to_o be_v so_o and_o not_o otherwise_o and_o see_v all_o form_n and_o frame_n which_o be_v rational_o compose_v have_v a_o ground_n in_o the_o be_v and_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n whence_o they_o arise_v therefore_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o rule_n by_o which_o humane_a thought_n be_v to_o be_v order_v must_v have_v certain_a principle_n which_o principle_n we_o will_v now_o speak_v of_o god_n will_v in_o brief_a that_o you_o may_v have_v a_o overture_n make_v unto_o you_o either_o to_o proceed_v by_o yourself_o

conceive_v to_o be_v or_o not_o to_o be_v possible_a or_o useful_a from_o whence_o you_o may_v gather_v that_o the_o act_n of_o the_o mind_n which_o be_v to_o be_v regulate_v which_o we_o call_v meditation_n and_o consultation_n be_v not_o now_o to_o be_v consider_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o subject_n whereupon_o they_o be_v to_o reflect_v which_o we_o have_v call_v the_o nature_n of_o thing_n and_o the_o action_n which_o may_v be_v intend_v by_o we_o for_o some_o good_a end_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o reflection_n itself_o that_o whether_o we_o meditate_v or_o consult_v we_o

the_o discovery_n of_o any_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o outward_a object_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o act_n of_o the_o mind_n ●●_o they_o have_v a_o twofold_a relation_n so_o they_o admit_v of_o
