by_o apply_v one_o unto_o the_o other_o i_o shall_v make_v this_o more_o manifest_a to_o you_o by_o one_o or_o by_o two_o example_n in_o the_o first_o of_o samuel_n the_o 24_o chapter_n and_o the_o 50_o verse_n it_o be_v say_v that_o david_n heart_n do_v fail_v he_o after_o that_o in_o the_o cave_n he_o have_v cut_v off_o the_o wing_n of_o saul_n garment_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o

which_o peradventure_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v do_v and_o i_o give_v thanks_o unto_o god_n who_o hold_v back_o my_o hand_n from_o act_v that_o which_o certain_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v commit_v in_o this_o manner_n also_o the_o conscience_n of_o judas_n the_o betrayer_n do_v object_n unto_o he_o thou_o know_v that_o thou_o ought_v not_o to_o betray_v thy_o master_n

same_o gesture_n at_o the_o sacred_a table_n can_v a_o custom_n change_v without_o any_o public_a authority_n sensible_o so_o prevail_v that_o what_o before_o be_v not_o un-decent_a or_o un-lawful_a

be_v precise_o bind_v up_o to_o the_o observation_n of_o that_o posture_n which_o be_v suppose_v be_v use_v by_o our_o saviour_n wherefore_o do_v these_o so_o severe_a dictator_n and_o controuler_n of_o the_o liberty_n of_o every_o church_n admit_v unto_o they_o a_o indulgence_n of_o stand_v or_o sit_v at_o the_o holy_a supper_n but_o not_o of_o kneel_v or_o of_o that_o posture_n which_o it_o be_v most_o probable_a that_o our_o saviour_n use_v in_o the_o five_o place_n i_o demand_v if_o the_o example_n of_o christ_n do_v oblige_v we_o to_o the_o imitation_n of_o it_o why_o be_v this_o

low_o to_o some_o more_o inferior_a species_n to_o make_v it_o more_o obvious_a to_o your_o understanding_n see_v those_o three_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v the_o gesture_n or_o posture_n itself_o as_o a_o superior_a genus_fw-la the_o posture_n at_o the_o table_n as_o a_o species_n subalternate_a to_o it_o and_o the_o posture_n of_o lie_v along_o and_o lean_v as_o the_o low_a species_n and_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o christ_n use_v the_o last_o according_a to_o the_o custom_n and_o practice_n of_o those_o time_n and_o climate_n why_o must_v the_o posture_n only_o at_o the_o table_n which_o be_v but_o a_o intermedial_a and_o a_o subalternate_a species_n be_v account_v necessary_a and_o sufficient_a to_o the_o true_a imitation_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o any_o other_o posture_n sufficient_a in_o the_o genus_fw-la of_o it_o or_o why_o may_v not_o the_o posture_n of_o lean_v and_o lie_v along_o be_v as_o necessary_a in_o the_o species_n last_o i_o demand_v be_v the_o

simple_o in_o itself_o but_o every_o example_n that_o may_v be_v practise_v by_o we_o i_o only_o therefore_o in_o this_o argumentation_n take_v that_o which_o they_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n do_v grant_v which_o be_v one_a the_o proposition_n that_o every_o imitable_a example_n of_o christ_n do_v oblige_v a_o christian_a to_o the_o imitation_n of_o it_o and_o 2_o the_o assumption_n that_o the_o posture_n in_o the_o species_n of_o it_o which_o christ_n use_v in_o the_o holy_a supper_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v be_v imitable_a from_o these_o premise_n i_o infer_v this_o conclusion_n by_o

these_o thing_n which_o have_v be_v speak_v it_o be_v manifest_a that_o all_o the_o force_n of_o their_o argument_n which_o with_o so_o much_o pomp_n be_v dress_v and_o hold_v forth_o by_o they_o do_v come_v to_o no_o more_o than_o this_o that_o it_o can_v more_o right_o or_o more_o commodious_o be_v propound_v for_o their_o own_o purpose_n than_o under_o this_o form_n the_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n do_v so_o far_o oblige_v as_o we_o think_v it_o expedient_a that_o it_o shall_v oblige_v but_o we_o think_v it_o expedient_a that_o it_o shall_v oblige_v to_o the_o not_o bend_v
