objection_n of_o deal_n without_o call_v or_o licence_n the_o other_o reason_n they_o allege_v be_v concern_v a_o late_a action_n wherein_o i_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o mr_n hooker_n master_n of_o the_o temple_n in_o the_o handle_n of_o which_o cause_n they_o charge_v i_o with_o a_o indiscretion_n and_o want_n of_o duty_n in_o that_o i_o inveigh_v as_o they_o say_v against_o certain_a point_n

course_n and_o carriage_n of_o that_o cause_n &_o the_o degree_n of_o proceed_v in_o it_o which_o i_o will_v do_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v and_o according_a to_o the_o truth_n god_n be_v my_o

to_o think_v i_o not_o charitable_o mind_v to_o mr_n hooker_n which_o be_v because_o he_o be_v bring_v into_o m._n alveye_v place_n wherein_o this_o church_n desire_v that_o i_o may_v have_v succeed_v

to_o any_o other_o which_o i_o can_v not_o in_o conscience_n do_v either_o for_o the_o temple_n which_o otherwise_o he_o say_v he_o will_v not_o commend_v i_o to_o nor_o for_o any_o other_o place_n

the_o good_a of_o our_o church_n yet_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n word_n to_o follow_v after_o it_o which_o be_v so_o as_o hereof_o i_o take_v god_n to_o witness_v who_o search_v the_o heart_n and_o reins_n and_o by_o his_o son_n will_v judge_v the_o world_n both_o the_o quick_a and_o dead_a i_o hope_v no_o charitable_a judgement_n can_v suppose_v i_o to_o have_v stand_v evil_a

wherewith_o coranus_n some_o time_n trouble_v his_o church_n i_o both_o deliver_v the_o truth_n of_o such_o point_n in_o a_o general_a doctrine_n without_o any_o touch_n of_o he_o in_o particular_a and_o confer_v with_o he_o also_o privatlie_o upon_o such_o article_n in_o which_o conference_n i_o remember_v when_o i_o urge_v the_o consent_n of_o all_o church_n and_o good_a writer_n against_o
