some_z reasins_z why_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n ought_v to_o enjoy_v their_o meeting_n peaceable_o publish_a for_o the_o information_n of_o those_o who_o be_v not_o acquaint_v with_o their_o way_n and_o to_o prevent_v mistake_v concern_v they_o know_v the_o purity_n of_o the_o abovenamed_a people_n principle_n together_o with_o the_o integrity_n of_o their_o life_n i_o draw_v forth_o this_o testimony_n concern_v they_o though_o they_o lie_v at_o the_o present_a under_o restraint_n yet_o innocent_o many_o of_o they_o who_o be_v real_a friend_n to_o this_o nation_n lie_v in_o prison_n some_o upon_o straw_n and_o some_o upon_o the_o bare_a ground_n or_o board_n to_o bear_v witness_n and_o to_o testify_v that_o they_o have_v right_o to_o meet_v i._o because_o for_o their_o liberty_n to_o meet_v in_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o tender_a conscience_n they_o have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o it_o second_v by_o the_o word_n of_o a_o king_n yea_o of_o king_n charles_n the_o second_o therefore_o they_o have_v right_o to_o meet_v ii_o though_o the_o king_n proclamation_n do_v forbid_v unlawful_a and_o seditious_a meeting_n yet_o see_v the_o quaker_n make_v no_o ill_a use_n of_o their_o opportunity_n in_o meet_v together_o neither_o be_v the_o proclamation_n occasion_v through_o any_o miscarriage_n in_o they_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v iii_o because_o the_o ground_n or_o cause_n of_o the_o law_n be_v the_o bottom_n or_o foundation_n whereon_o it_o take_v hold_v or_o it_o be_v the_o subject_a matter_n against_o which_o the_o law_n be_v place_v therefore_o as_o for_o those_o person_n who_o principle_n and_o practice_n afford_v no_o ground_n nor_o bottom_n for_o any_o such_o law_n there_o the_o law_n come_v void_a concern_v they_o but_o the_o ground_n or_o cause_n of_o the_o come_n forth_o of_o that_o proclamation_n be_v signify_v in_o the_o proclamation_n viz._n because_o that_o some_o make_v so_o ill_a a_o use_n of_o their_o liberty_n as_o to_o take_v those_o time_n as_o opportunity_n to_o plot_n against_o the_o peace_n of_o their_o neighbour_n who_o they_o ought_v to_o love_v as_o themselves_o but_o from_o all_o such_o practice_n plot_n or_o conspiracy_n as_o to_o go_v about_o or_o to_o compass_v any_o hurt_a either_o to_o the_o king_n or_o to_o any_o of_o his_o subject_n the_o people_n call_v quaker_n be_v whole_o free_a from_o both_o in_o thought_n word_n and_o deed_n so_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o proclamation_n touch_v not_o they_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v iv_o because_o they_o be_v the_o great_a friend_n to_o magistracy_n that_o may_v or_o can_v be_v for_o their_o whole_a aim_n end_v and_o drift_n in_o all_o their_o preach_a and_o live_v be_v to_o discountenance_v sin_n and_o vice_n and_o to_o encourage_v virtue_n viz._n goodness_n meekness_n mercy_n and_o truth_n together_o with_o love_n long-suffering_a and_o patience_n exercise_v towards_o all_o man_n in_o the_o true_a fear_n of_o the_o live_a god_n this_o be_v that_o they_o seek_v and_o in_o good_a measure_n find_v so_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o magistrate_n be_v to_o defend_v both_o the_o magistrate_n work_v and_o they_o agree_v thus_o they_o cleave_v close_o to_o the_o magistrate_n in_o substance_n and_o that_o be_v more_o than_o other_o who_o cleave_v to_o he_o by_o flattery_n or_o for_o self_n end_v therefore_o ought_v these_o people_n to_o meet_v v._o because_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o desire_v &_o seek_v no_o other_o thing_n nor_o liberty_n for_o themselves_o than_o they_o be_v willing_a all_o man_n shall_v have_v and_o enjoy_v therefore_o they_o have_v right_a to_o meet_v vi_o because_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o seek_v the_o good_a of_o all_o man_n therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v vii_o because_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o do_v meet_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n therefore_o they_o have_v right_a to_o meet_v viii_o because_o that_o when_o they_o meet_v they_o seek_v to_o bring_v other_o out_o of_o their_o wicked_a way_n into_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o truth_n therefore_o of_o right_n they_o ought_v to_o meet_v ix_o because_o that_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o make_v no_o plot_n against_o any_o man_n person_n or_o estate_n therefore_o they_o have_v right_a to_o meet_v x._o because_o that_o in_o their_o meet_v together_o they_o do_v nothing_o against_o the_o true_a peace_n of_o this_o nation_n but_o seek_v to_o bring_v all_o man_n into_o the_o peace_n of_o god_n which_o pass_v understanding_n therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v xi_o because_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o edify_v one_o another_o in_o love_n calling_z and_o warn_v all_o man_n to_o repent_v from_o the_o wickedness_n of_o their_o way_n and_o with_o speed_n to_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n before_o it_o be_v too_o late_a therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v xii_o because_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o take_v care_n for_o the_o poor_a that_o there_o may_v not_o be_v a_o beggar_n among_o they_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v xiii_o because_o that_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o take_v care_n to_o pay_v the_o rent_n of_o the_o poor_a widow_n who_o be_v not_o of_o ability_n to_o pay_v it_o themselves_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v fourteen_o because_o in_o their_o meeting_n they_o provide_v for_o such_o

to_o work_v when_o work_n be_v scarce_o and_o by_o give_v they_o better_a wage_n than_o shopkeeper_n will_v therefore_o they_o have_v right_a to_o meet_v xvi_o because_o that_o in_o their_o meeting_n

therefore_o they_o have_v right_a to_o meet_v xix_o because_o they_o disow_v all_o such_o among_o they_o who_o walk_v disorderly_a not_o become_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n therefore_o they_o have_v right_a to_o meet_v xx._n because_o they_o use_v violence_n to_o no_o man_n therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o meet_v here_o follow_v certain_a scripture_n which_o show_v that_o the_o people_n of_o the_o
