man_n do_v such_o action_n as_o be_v idolatrous_a how_o can_v the_o intention_n excuse_v they_o from_o idolatry_n so_o that_o by_o this_o way_n of_o reason_v he_o can_v never_o throw_v we_o down_o but_o we_o must_v fall_v both_o together_o for_o though_o the_o sacrament_n or_o the_o altar_n be_v not_o express_v in_o the_o commandment_n yet_o since_o the_o external_n action_n of_o adoration_n be_v a_o religious_a and_o divine_a worship_n according_a to_o the_o replier_n principle_n before_o establish_v the_o bow_v down_o and_o kneel_v to_o they_o can_v be_v excuse_v from_o the_o guilt_n of_o constructive_a idolatry_n and_o whatsoever_o hole_n the_o replier_n can_v possible_o find_v to_o get_v out_o at_o with_o his_o altar_n the_o representer_n will_v easy_o follow_v he_o at_o the_o

of_o the_o same_o for_o the_o justify_v his_o yea_n and_o his_o nay_n and_o his_o other_o point_n of_o quakerism_n for_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v no_o intention_n can_v alter_v the_o nature_n of_o

himself_o have_v put_v they_o into_o my_o mouth_n 1._o that_o he_o will_v use_v his_o interest_n with_o protestant_n to_o hold_v to_o what_o he_o say_v they_o do_v and_o charge_v we_o with_o nothing_o

of_o particular_a author_n and_o hold_v these_o forth_o for_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o our_o church_n and_o that_o in_o charge_v any_o practice_n they_o charge_v they_o upon_o no_o more_o than_o be_v concern_v 3._o that_o as_o often_o as_o they_o tell_v what_o they_o think_v of_o our_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n they_o will_v likewise_o at_o the_o same_o time_n inform_v their_o hearer_n that_o those_o thought_n be_v as_o the_o replier_n say_v opinion_n interpretation_n and_o consequence_n of_o their_o own_o concern_v our_o doctrine_n and_o not_o our_o avow_v doctrine_n but_o that_o we_o think_v as_o ill_o of_o those_o crime_n which_o they_o charge_v as_o they_o themselves_o do_v and_o that_o we_o our_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n be_v as_o free_v from_o they_o as_o they_o think_v of_o their_o own_o and_o that_o in_o this_o consist_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o we_o these_o be_v but_o very_o reasonable_a request_n i_o think_v and_o what_o every_o man_n may_v very_o well_o expect_v from_o his_o christian_a neighbour_n they_o be_v not_o so_o much_o favour_n as_o duty_n and_o what_o every_o one_o who_o understand_v that_o golden_a rule_n of_o do_v as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v by_o will_v comply_v with_o without_o long_a entreaty_n this_o be_v desire_v by_o those_o of_o the_o reformation_n too_o who_o require_v in_o their_o synod_n of_o dort_n that_o none_o
