scoff_o word_n it_o do_v wrong_v the_o quaker_n at_o all_o in_o say_v that_o bailie_n be_v a_o quaker_n and_o lead_v by_o their_o spirit_n at_o the_o time_n of_o his_o project_n mention_v in_o their_o narrative_n but_o to_o wipe_v away_o all_o this_o luke_n tell_v we_o that_o baily_n be_v depart_v from_o they_o and_o therefore_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v charge_v with_o his_o action_n no_o more_o than_o the_o christian_n of_o old_a with_o those_o that_o depart_v from_o they_o and_o seem_v to_o be_v much_o offend_v pag._n 13._o what_o now_o baptist-pastor_n say_v he_o will_v thou_o have_v judge_v all_o the_o disciple_n because_o peter_n deny_v his_o master_n and_o for_o judas_n sake_n have_v say_v they_o be_v all_o alike_o and_o lead_v by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n etc._n etc._n and_o then_o as_o if_o the_o man_n think_v himself_o a_o artist_n at_o looking-glass-making_a he_o say_v see_v thy_o face_n thou_o blind_a pastor_n thy_o jewish_a spirit_n will_v have_v accuse_v all_o the_o brethren_n for_o their_o sake_n that_o go_v out_o from_o they_o and_o have_v say_v they_o be_v all_o alike_o etc._n etc._n reply_n the_o case_n in_o hand_n between_o luke_n and_o i_o be_v not_o equivolent_a to_o that_o he_o allude_v to_o for_o neither_o peter_n nor_o judas_n do_v pretend_v in_o deny_v their_o master_n to_o advance_v their_o ministry_n and_o the_o gospel_n as_o charles_n baily_n do_v the_o quaker_n doctrine_n in_o what_o he_o do_v in_o his_o prophecy_n revelation_n and_o prodigious_a miracle_n and_o therefore_o it_o will_v have_v be_v as_o impertinent_a for_o any_o to_o have_v charge_v all_o the_o apostle_n with_o their_o sin_n who_o never_o own_v they_o in_o it_o as_o the_o quaker_n do_v baily_n in_o what_o he_o do_v as_o it_o be_v proper_a for_o i_o to_o say_v that_o baily_n be_v lead_v by_o the_o quaker_n spirit_n and_o the_o case_n of_o they_o which_o go_v out_o of_o the_o church_n john_n 2.19_o to_o which_o luke_n howard_n allude_v make_v as_o little_a to_o his_o purpose_n for_o they_o depart_v from_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n act._n 2.43_o as_o luke_n himself_o have_v do_v and_o their_o case_n be_v more_o applicable_a to_o himself_o then_o to_o charles_n baily_n who_o so_o high_o own_v the_o quakers_n doctrine_n at_o that_o time_n that_o he_o preach_v it_o up_o suffer_v for_o it_o pronounce_v judgement_n against_o the_o opposer_n of_o it_o and_o pretend_v to_o work_v miracle_n to_o confirm_v it_o and_o therefore_o his_o be_v rather_o a_o act_n of_o persevere_v in_o than_o a_o depart_n from_o your_o spirit_n and_o doctrine_n quite_o alter_v the_o case_n and_o all_o luke_n cavil_v comparison_n fall_v to_o the_o ground_n but_o luke_n go_v further_a and_o to_o assure_v his_o reader_n that_o baily_n be_v no_o sober_a quaker_n when_o he_o act_v as_o in_o the_o narrative_a express_v he_o term_v they_o mad_a action_n page_n 8._o reply_v luke_n in_o this_o be_v very_o uncharitable_a methinks_v to_o his_o old_a friend_n though_o then_o he_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o quaker_n befriend_v he_o in_o that_o they_o judge_v baily_n now_o according_a to_o thr_fw-mi event_n of_o his_o action_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o intent_n of_o his_o mind_n which_o be_v to_o advance_v that_o which_o luke_n call_v truth_n and_o as_o disingenuous_a to_o himself_o see_v he_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n by_o which_o bailie_n then_o act_v nor_o be_v luke_n less_o injurous_a to_o his_o two_o female_a friend_n who_o be_v as_o mad_a in_o that_o mad_a action_n about_o woollet_n as_o baily_n be_v but_o those_o he_o whole_o screen_n from_o the_o world_n in_o his_o glass_n and_o lett●_n they_o not_o be_v see_v therein_o at_o all_o though_o he_o know_v in_o his_o conscience_n they_o be_v co-worker_n with_o bailie_n in_o that_o undertake_n but_o this_o argue_v that_o bailiff_n leave_v they_o since_o that_o time_n be_v his_o great_a crime_n and_o therefore_o the_o burden_n be_v by_o luke_n lay_v and_o leave_v upon_o bailiff_n back_o and_o the_o two_o female_a friend_n be_v befriend_v but_o last_o luke_o to_o clear_v the_o case_n at_o once_o tell_v his_o reader_n in_o the_o same_o page_n that_o they_o be_v as_o clear_v from_o charles_n baily_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n as_o they_o be_v from_o we_o reply_v that_o luke_n howard_n be_v clear_a from_o we_o i_o grant_v for_o he_o long_o since_o leave_v the_o baptist_n and_o turn_v a_o lewd_a ranter_n scoff_v at_o and_o oppose_v the_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n then_o at_z he_o do_v now_o but_o he_o be_v no_o more_o clear_a from_o bailie_n when_o he_o act_v as_o in_o the_o narrative_a than_o judah_n be_v from_o his_o sin_n with_o thamar_n when_o she_o have_v his_o bracelet_n signet_n and_o staff_n for_o then_o baily_n have_v their_o spirit_n hold_v their_o principle_n and_o preach_v their_o doctrine_n and_o here_o be_v a_o end_n of_o his_o shift_n to_o evade_v the_o truth_n or_o narratve_n concern_v bailie_n and_o his_o fellow_n female_n in_o the_o next_o place_n i_o shall_v according_a to_o what_o i_o have_v propound_v take_v off_o his_o evasion_n by_o which_o he_o endeavour_v to_o darken_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o narrative_a and_o first_o luke_n tell_v we_o in_o page_n the_o 10._o that_o his_o wife_n do_v send_v a_o letter_n to_o london_n about_o baily_n reply_v how_o incongruous_a be_v this_o to_o reason_n that_o she_o on_o who_o baily_n have_v new_o wrought_v a_o miracle_n shall_v write_v against_o he_o and_o that_o then_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o quaker_n here_o shall_v not_o know_v it_o to_o disow_v he_o with_o she_o no_o nor_o no_o body_n else_o know_v of_o it_o unrill_v now_o let_v the_o judicious_a reader_n judge_n of_o this_o again_o in_o the_o same_o page_n he_o tell_v we_o two_o friend_n come_v and_o testify_v against_o baily_n but_o do_v not_o disow_v he_o nor_o do_v he_o pretend_v so_o for_o baily_n preach_v among_o they_o after_o he_o come_v out_o of_o prison_n which_o be_v some_o month_n after_o his_o false_a vision_n etc._n etc._n but_o be_v this_o know_v to_o the_o baptist_n who_o say_v baily_n be_v a_o deceiver_n that_o two_o friend_n have_v testify_v against_o he_o no_o say_v luke_n this_o we_o do_v not_o acquaint_v the_o baptist_n with_o and_o why_o so_o why_o faith_n luke_n because_o we_o know_v they_o wait_v for_o mischief_n reply_n what_o silly_a fenceless_a shift_n be_v these_o to_o evade_v that_o which_o luke_n know_v in_o his_o own_o conscience_n to_o be_v true_a as_o if_o the_o only_a way_n to_o cut_v off_o occasion_n of_o reproach_n from_o such_o as_o wait_v for_o it_o be_v to_o own_o and_o justify_v the_o offender_n and_o to_o condemn_v and_o censure_v the_o innocent_a and_o offend_v and_o in_o page_n the_o 7._o the_o quaker_n to_o evade_v that_o which_o just_o stick_v upon_o he_o tell_v the_o world_n that_o baily_n be_v not_o establish_v among_o they_o reply_v this_o be_v strange_a if_o true_a what_o one_o that_o zealous_o own_a and_o preach_v up_o the_o light_n within_o confirm_v the_o same_o doctrine_n by_o miracle_n if_o the_o report_n of_o quaker_n may_v be_v credit_v denounce_v judgement_n against_o the_o opposer_n thereof_o and_o endure_v imprisonment_n for_o their_o doctrine_n sake_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v a_o establish_a quaker_n if_o these_o be_v not_o the_o indelible_a character_n of_o a_o establish_a quaker_n let_v they_o show_v i_o what_o they_o be_v and_o by_o what_o rule_n if_o they_o have_v any_o i_o may_v know_v which_o be_v and_o which_o be_v not_o establish_v quaker_n mean_v time_n they_o must_v needs_o give_v we_o leave_v to_o let_v baily_n pass_v for_o one_o have_v all_o the_o forename_a character_n upon_o he_o but_o in_o the_o next_o place_n the_o man_n to_o make_v his_o glass_n clear_a he_o give_v it_o a_o rub_n and_o that_o as_o he_o think_v to_o purpose_v two_o and_o do_v you_o not_o know_v say_v he_o in_o your_o conscience_n that_o he_o viz._n baily_n have_v be_v by_o we_o call_v
