Dodwell, against his reasons for their silence ... : written in 1668 and 1669, for the most of it, and now published as an addition to the defence against Dr. Stillingfleet, and as an account to the silencers of the reasons of our practice / by Richard Baxter.

presbyterian_o as_o they_o will_v needs_o call_v they_o by_o i_o i_o take_v it_o to_o be_v my_o duty_n as_o for_o myself_o and_o other_o to_o answer_v this_o more_o historical_o than_o otherwise_o i_o shall_v think_v convenient_a 1._o be_v it_o justice_n to_o charge_v man_n with_o seditious_a preach_v that_o never_o be_v accuse_v or_o convict_v of_o any_o such_o doctrine_n before_o any_o

for_o nonconformist_n and_o you_o may_v have_v more_o witness_n against_o we_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o public_o we_o be_v allow_v to_o preach_v 2._o do_v you_o think_v that_o man_n can_v

my_o experience_n above_o thirty_o year_n the_o people_n be_v much_o proner_n to_o separation_n and_o to_o think_v very_o hardly_o of_o the_o liturgy_n and_o ceremony_n than_o the_o minister_n be_v insomuch_o that_o it_o have_v be_v my_o wonder_n many_o a_o year_n to_o observe_v it_o that_o when_o we_o have_v but_o awaken_v the_o conscience_n of_o ignorant_a and_o sensual_a person_n to_o repentance_n short_o ere_o we_o be_v aware_a they_o fall_v on_o scruple_v ceremony_n and_o dislike_a the_o liturgy_n when_o we_o know_v of_o none_o that_o put_v they_o on_o it_o but_o the_o open_a cause_n that_o ever_o i_o can_v observe_v if_o you_o can_v bear_v public_a historical_a truth_n be_v this_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o repent_v of_o a_o ungodly_a worldly_a life_n and_o begin_v to_o have_v serious_a thought_n of_o another_o world_n they_o be_v apt_a in_o their_o ignorance_n to_o judge_n of_o thing_n by_o person_n and_o when_o they_o be_v convince_v of_o a_o great_a difference_n between_o a_o life_n of_o faith_n and_o of_o sense_n and_o between_o the_o sober_a righteous_a godly_a and_o the_o intemperate_a unrighteous_a and_o ungodly_a they_o present_o mark_v what_o way_n these_o several_a people_n go_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o worship_n which_o be_v past_o their_o own_o understanding_n and_o when_o they_o have_v see_v in_o most_o place_n the_o deboist_a and_o vicious_a people_n to_o be_v great_a hater_n of_o strictness_n and_o so_o of_o puritan_n and_o of_o religious_a exercise_n in_o any_o way_n but_o by_o form_n and_o see_v they_o so_o much_o for_o bishop_n and_o common-prayer_n and_o then_o see_v some_o severity_n exercise_v against_o those_o that_o have_v live_v most_o strict_o they_o present_o suspect_v that_o bishop_n be_v the_o suppressor_n of_o the_o most_o religious_a and_o the_o encourager_n of_o those_o that_o need_v reformation_n and_o that_o form_n and_o ceremony_n be_v but_o the_o mean_n to_o quiet_a the_o ungodly_a in_o their_o want_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o life_n of_o godliness_n and_o to_o make_v they_o think_v themselves_o religious_a these_o be_v the_o way_n of_o the_o people_n receive_v prejudice_n against_o you_o as_o far_o as_o ever_o i_o can_v discern_v which_o i_o write_v not_o in_o approbation_n but_o historical_o and_o i_o ever_o find_v that_o those_o bishop_n and_o pastor_n that_o most_o encourage_v
