A41067	A touch-stone, or, A perfect tryal by the Scriptures, of all the priests, bishops, and ministers, who have called themselves, the ministers of the Gospel whose time and day hath been in the last ages past, or rather in the night of apostacy : they are tried and weighed by the Scriptures of truth, and are found out of the life and power of the scriptures, and out of the spirit and doctrine of them that gave them forth, and quite contrary to their principle and practice, both Papists and Protestants : unto which is annexed, Womens speaking justified, &c.

little_a holiness_n grave_v upon_o they_o neither_o light_n nor_o perfection_n and_o if_o they_o do_v take_v the_o long_a robe_n and_o surplice_n hood_n and_o tippet_n from_o aaron_n they_o miss_v the_o garb_n and_o fashion_n of_o this_o for_o upon_o the_o hem_v of_o aaron_n garment_n there_o be_v bell_n and_o pomgranet_n of_o gold_n a_o golden_a bell_n and_o a_o pomegranet_n a_o golden_a bell_n and_o a_o pomegranet_n round_o about_o the_o hem_n and_o this_o be_v to_o be_v upon_o aaron_n when_o he_o go_v to_o minister_v that_o his_o sound_n may_v be_v hear_v when_o he_o be_v to_o go_v in_o the_o holy_a place_n before_o the_o lord_n but_o they_o set_v bell_n upon_o the_o top_n of_o their_o steepl_n in_o stead_n of_o these_o to_o make_v people_n hear_v the_o sound_n when_o they_o go_v to_o their_o worship_n and_o so_o in_o this_o as_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v show_v they_o differ_v far_o from_o scripture-rule_n moreover_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o moses_n thus_o shall_v aaron_n go_v into_o the_o holy_a place_n with_o a_o young_a bullock_n for_o a_o sin-offering_n and_o a_o ram_n for_o a_o burnt-offering_a and_o he_o shall_v put_v on_o the_o holy_a

this_o they_o call_z themselves_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o gospel_n but_o certain_o they_o have_v not_o take_v up_o the_o imitation_n of_o these_o thing_n from_o hence_o from_o
