conference_n especial_o when_o they_o be_v faithful_o pen_v down_o and_o so_o expose_v to_o the_o general_a view_n and_o this_o for_o the_o following-reason_n 1._o few_o man_n have_v leisure_n or_o at_o least_o industry_n enough_o for_o the_o perusal_n of_o large_a treatise_n whereas_o one_o of_o these_o conference_n seldom_o reach_v to_o above_o a_o sheet_n of_o paper_n 2._o man_n be_v common_o so_o well_o persuade_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o their_o own_o party_n or_o else_o so_o willing_a to_o be_v persuade_v of_o it_o that_o for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o only_o read_v their_o own_o author_n and_o so_o become_v at_o best_a but_o partial_a judge_n especial_o when_o they_o happen_v to_o be_v on_o that_o side_n which_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o some_o insincere_a deal_v for_o its_o support_n whereas_o in_o these_o conference_n the_o argument_n on_o both_o side_n be_v interchangeable_o set_v down_o and_o mix_v with_o one_o another_o it_o will_v not_o be_v possible_a for_o the_o reader_n to_o read_v and_o understand_v the_o one_o without_o read_v and_o consider_v the_o other_o 3._o the_o strength_n of_o the_o argument_n be_v more_o perspicuous_a when_o they_o be_v thus_o place_v by_o one_o another_o according_a to_o the_o maxim_n contraria_fw-la juxtà_fw-la se_fw-la posita_fw-la magis_fw-la elucescunt_fw-la as_o it_o be_v also_o when_o they_o be_v lay_v before_o we_o naked_a and_o strip_v of_o all_o those_o artificial_a ornament_n of_o rhetoric_n and_o satyr_n which_o make_v up_o a_o great_a part_n of_o our_o late_a controversial_a volume_n and_o serve_v for_o nothing_o else_o than_o to_o amuse_v and_o deceive_v a_o unwary_a and_o unskilful_a reader_n who_o be_v incline_v to_o think_v that_o he_o who_o say_v most_o have_v most_o to_o say_v and_o that_o he_o who_o have_v the_o best_a jest_n have_v likewise_o the_o best_a argument_n 4._o in_o these_o conference_n the_o disputant_n have_v not_o so_o great_a a_o opportunity_n of_o wrest_v and_o pervert_v one_o another_o argument_n as_o they_o have_v when_o each_o party_n sit_v in_o his_o study_n and_o as_o it_o be_v on_o his_o own_o dunghill_n have_v his_o adversary_n at_o his_o mercy_n and_o make_v he_o speak_v what_o he_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o by_o disguise_v and_o misrepresent_v his_o argument_n or_o else_o change_v the_o state_n of_o the_o question_n and_o impose_v a_o new_a task_n upon_o he_o deal_v with_o he_o as_o conjurer_n be_v say_v to_o do_v with_o the_o devil_n who_o when_o they_o have_v raise_v he_o be_v teach_v never_o to_o let_v he_o rest_v but_o as_o soon_o as_o one_o business_n be_v dispatch_v or_o even_o before_o it_o be_v quite_o do_v to_o employ_v he_o in_o another_o lest_o otherwise_o he_o may_v want_v work_n and_o then_o destroy_v the_o conjurer_n to_o keep_v himself_o from_o idleness_n and_o we_o have_v not_o far_o to_o go_v for_o some_o instance_n of_o this_o nature_n for_o you_o be_v please_v to_o say_v that_o the_o conference_n whereof_o we_o now_o speak_v depend_v on_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v prove_v by_o mr._n g_o 1._o that_o you_o protestant_n have_v no_o absolute_a certainty_n as_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o your_o faith_n viz._n the_o scripture_n although_o you_o have_v a_o large_a and_o firm_a tradition_n for_o it_o viz._n the_o consent_n of_o all_o christian_a church_n than_o we_o catholic_o can_v have_v for_o the_o point_n of_o faith_n in_o difference_n between_o we_o 2._o that_o the_o tradition_n from_o father_n to_o son_n be_v a_o infallible_a conveyance_n of_o matter_n of_o faith_n notwithstanding_o the_o greek_a church_n be_v charge_v by_o we_o catholic_o with_o error_n which_o adhere_v to_o tradition_n now_o as_o to_o the_o first_o it_o be_v not_o deny_v that_o there_o be_v in_o truth_n a_o absolute_a certainty_n for_o that_o scripture_n wherein_o you_o agree_v with_o we_o but_o that_o according_a to_o your_o principle_n who_o at_o the_o time_n of_o your_o reformation_n charge_v all_o christian_a church_n with_o error_n not_o only_o in_o other_o article_n of_o their_o belief_n but_o even_o in_o the_o tradition_n or_o delivery_n of_o scripture_n and_o yet_o rely_v on_o the_o tradition_n of_o these_o church_n for_o it_o any_o such_o certainty_n can_v be_v show_v we_o say_v far_o that_o whereas_o you_o pretend_v to_o a_o absolute_a certainty_n as_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o your_o faith_n from_o the_o consent_n of_o all_o christian_a church_n you_o seem_v to_o forget_v that_o your_o rule_n be_v scripture_n not_o as_o interpret_v or_o to_o be_v interpret_v by_o the_o church_n but_o as_o understand_v or_o to_o be_v understand_v without_o a_o necessity_n of_o submit_v to_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o church_n by_o every_o sober_a enquirer_n though_o of_o the_o mean_a capacity_n for_o which_o rule_n as_o you_o know_v well_o enough_o you_o be_v very_o far_o from_o have_v the_o consent_n of_o all_o christian_a church_n to_o which_o purpose_n i_o speak_v before_o last_o we_o desire_v to_o know_v according_a to_o what_o i_o have_v likewise_o say_v above_o what_o those_o christian_a church_n be_v who_o testimony_n be_v require_v towards_o the_o assure_v we_o what_o be_v scripture_n and_o what_o not_o and_o by_o what_o mark_v you_o distinguish_v they_o from_o other_o since_o we_o can_v suppose_v that_o in_o this_o case_n you_o require_v the_o concurrence_n of_o all_o heretical_a congregation_n which_o may_v profess_v a_o belief_n in_o christ_n and_o call_v themselves_o christian_n forasmuch_o as_o these_o among_o they_o some_o deny_v one_o book_n of_o scripture_n and_o some_o another_o either_o have_v or_o may_v deny_v the_o whole_a canon_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n you_o ought_v to_o show_v we_o by_o what_o rule_n we_o be_v able_a to_o discern_v the_o orthodox_n deliverer_n of_o scripture_n from_o the_o heterodox_n lest_o otherwise_o we_o may_v be_v deceive_v by_o receive_v too_o little_a or_o too_o much_o for_o canonical_a and_o this_o be_v that_o task_n which_o remain_v on_o your_o hand_n when_o the_o first_o disputation_n break_v off_o but_o here_o instead_o of_o finish_v it_o you_o fine_o disguise_v it_o and_o by_o a_o certain_a controversie-juggle_a put_v it_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o your_o adversary_n as_o though_o it_o belong_v to_o he_o in_o the_o second_o point_n you_o will_v make_v the_o world_n believe_v that_o it_o lay_v on_o mr._n g_o to_o prove_v that_o suppose_v the_o greek_a church_n err_v whilst_o it_o adhere_v to_o tradition_n a_o church_n adhere_v to_o tradition_n can_v not_o err_v whereas_o mr._n g_z never_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o greek_a church_n err_v whilst_o it_o adhere_v to_o tradition_n and_o therefore_o to_o suppose_v it_o as_o you_o do_v be_v to_o beg_v the_o question_n and_o misrepresent_v the_o state_n of_o the_o argument_n wherefore_o to_o stay_v no_o long_o on_o this_o subject_a i_o beg_v of_o my_o reader_n to_o weigh_v your_o two_o proposition_n and_o compare_v they_o careful_o with_o the_o two_o disputation_n to_o which_o they_o belong_v and_o if_o after_o that_o they_o shall_v conclude_v that_o each_o question_n be_v right_o state_v by_o you_o and_o that_o the_o proof_n in_o both_o be_v incumbent_a on_o mr._n g_o as_o you_o will_v have_v it_o i_o will_v be_v content_v that_o my_o four_o reason_n against_o dispute_v by_o book_n viz._n the_o hazard_n of_o misrepresentation_n shall_v go_v for_o nothing_o five_o much_o time_n be_v spend_v by_o controversy-writer_n not_o only_o in_o prove_v certain_a proposition_n which_o will_v be_v grant_v they_o by_o their_o adversary_n but_o also_o in_o raise_v silly_a objection_n which_o their_o adversary_n neither_o have_v nor_o be_v like_a to_o make_v which_o two_o thing_n beside_o the_o loss_n of_o time_n

proceed_n you_o speak_v of_o than_o that_o which_o you_o have_v take_v certain_o there_o can_v be_v no_o cause_n assign_v for_o this_o omission_n unless_o it_o be_v that_o in_o truth_n you_o be_v as_o little_o please_v with_o the_o true_a copy_n as_o the_o false_a one_o which_o may_v serve_v for_o a_o new_a argument_n that_o the_o difference_n between_o they_o be_v not_o very_o great_a and_o also_o for_o another_o inference_n which_o the_o reader_n will_v make_v beside_o have_v you_o assoon_o as_o these_o imperfect_a copy_n come_v to_o your_o hand_n send_v to_o mr._n g_o to_o know_v whether_o

so_o long_o after_o to_o take_v the_o opportunity_n of_o his_o absence_n and_o to_o accuse_v he_o in_o this_o public_a manner_n without_o first_o hear_v what_o he_o have_v to_o say_v either_o in_o the_o full_a defence_n of_o himself_o or_o at_o least_o in_o the_o extenuation_n of_o his_o fault_n be_v in_o my_o opinion_n neither_o a_o ingenuous_a nor_o christian_n proceed_v you_o tell_v we_o after_o this_o you_o hear_v that_o i_o for_o so_o i_o be_o tell_v you_o understand_v by_o mr._n m_o pretend_v you_o give_v out_o false_a copy_n but_o what_o i_o pretend_v be_v according_a to_o what_o you_o will_v have_v read_v before_o that_o i_o have_v see_v a_o copy_n which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v take_v from_o you_o that_o in_o the_o principal_a controversy_n it_o differ_v nothing_o from_o mr._n g's_o and_o that_o in_o the_o other_o the_o difference_n be_v not_o so_o considerable_a but_o it_o may_v well_o arise_v from_o the_o confusion_n or_o abruptness_n wherein_o the_o disputation_n end_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o concern_v your_o last_o clause_n viz._n i_o mean_v not_o the_o arian_n etc._n etc._n i_o very_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v not_o write_v down_o whilst_o we_o stay_v at_o least_o not_o so_o as_o to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o by_o both_o party_n or_o by_o consent_n which_o you_o look_v on_o as_o a_o necessary_a circumstance_n for_o the_o set_n down_o of_o former_a point_n now_o if_o any_o one_o interpret_v this_o a_o pretend_v that_o you_o give_v out_o a_o false_a copy_n it_o be_v more_o than_o i_o can_v prevent_v for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o never_o term_v it_o so_o be_v loath_a to_o lay_v the_o severe_a censure_n on_o thing_n for_o which_o there_o may_v be_v some_o colour_n and_o therefore_o tho'i_fw-mi be_v persuade_v that_o this_o dispute_v clause_n be_v not_o set_v down_o according_a to_o our_o rule_n viz._n by_o consent_n i_o can_v never_o prevail_v with_o myself_o to_o accuse_v your_o copy_n of_o downright_a falseness_n because_o i_o remember_v that_o you_o say_v those_o word_n and_o that_o mr._n g_o as_o far_o as_o i_o can_v call_v to_o mind_n return_v no_o express_a answer_n be_v divert_v from_o it_o as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v however_o have_v mr._n g_o take_v the_o same_o liberty_n and_o after_o his_o departure_n write_v down_o that_o question_n which_o he_o ask_v you_o at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o first_o disputation_n i_o be_o afraid_a you_o will_v not_o have_v be_v so_o civil_a or_o scrupulous_a as_o not_o to_o have_v call_v his_o copy_n false_a for_o how_o can_v this_o be_v expect_v when_o you_o now_o take_v a_o far_o less_o occasion_n if_o it_o may_v be_v style_v a_o occasion_n for_o so_o great_a a_o defamation_n you_o tell_v mr._n g_o that_o because_o his_o writer_n copy_n be_v not_o read_v and_o none_o sign_v you_o desire_v he_o to_o make_v good_a two_o thing_n which_o you_o say_v the_o whole_a conference_n depend_v on_o now_o i_o shall_v have_v think_v that_o because_o mr._n g_n copy_n be_v not_o read_v and_o none_o sign_v you_o will_v have_v desire_v that_o both_o copy_n may_v have_v be_v read_v agree_v on_o and_o sign_v and_o so_o disperse_v that_o whatever_o damage_n accrue_v to_o either_o side_n from_o the_o imperfection_n of_o former_a copy_n may_v be_v repair_v and_o prevent_v by_o these_o perfect_a one_o for_o the_o future_a but_o instead_o of_o this_o to_o tell_v we_o that_o because_o the_o paper_n be_v not_o read_v and_o sign_v you_o expect_v that_o a_o new_a dispute_n shall_v be_v commence_v what_o be_v it_o but_o to_o confirm_v what_o i_o have_v already_o intimate_v viz._n that_o you_o be_v not_o much_o in_o love_n with_o either_o copy_n and_o the_o conference_n itself_o be_v as_o little_a to_o your_o satisfaction_n as_o the_o worst_a account_n of_o it_o i_o know_v not_o what_o mr._n g_o will_n return_n to_o your_o challenge_n but_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o do_v not_o see_v with_o what_o reason_n you_o can_v term_v it_o a_o just_a and_o necessary_a vindication_n of_o yourself_o for_o if_o you_o be_v desirous_a that_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v a_o true_a account_n of_o what_o pass_v in_o the_o conference_n the_o abovementioned_a paper_n compare_v and_o adjust_v will_v effect_v this_o much_o better_a than_o a_o new_a dispute_n for_o though_o you_o shall_v overcome_v in_o it_o will_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o you_o have_v the_o better_a in_o the_o conference_n and_o again_o though_o mr._n g_o shall_v carry_v away_o the_o palm_n in_o this_o second_o engagement_n will_v it_o thence_o appear_v how_o innocent_a or_o guilty_a he_o be_v in_o the_o publication_n of_o his_o paper_n you_o see_v sir_n how_o improper_a and_o ineffectual_a a_o way_n you_o propose_v either_o for_o your_o justification_n or_o mr._n g's_o and_o how_o convenient_a it_o be_v for_o both_o that_o the_o write_n of_o the_o conference_n shall_v be_v adjust_v and_o publish_v if_o you_o be_v not_o content_v with_o those_o which_o you_o find_v here_o since_o it_o be_v not_o skill_n or_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o first_o cause_n but_o the_o sincerity_n of_o the_o person_n which_o be_v now_o in_o question_n but_o if_o you_o judge_v that_o the_o disputation_n of_o the_o conference_n be_v lame_a and_o imperfect_a i_o be_o of_o your_o mind_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o think_v fit_a to_o propose_v that_o in_o order_n to_o the_o draw_v thing_n to_o a_o conclusion_n both_o party_n may_v be_v oblige_v to_o go_v on_o where_o they_o leave_v off_o i_o dare_v promise_v you_o that_o mr._n g_o will_n give_v you_o a_o fair_a meeting_n at_o any_o such_o reasonable_a time_n or_o place_n as_o you_o shall_v appoint_v and_o lest_o you_o shall_v be_v apprehensive_a of_o suffer_v any_o more_o by_o false_a copy_n i_o question_v not_o but_o you_o will_v have_v his_o consent_n to_o have_v they_o take_v by_o swear_a notary_n or_o even_o by_o your_o own_o amanuensis_fw-la and_o for_o great_a security_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o as_o many_o and_o as_o credible_a witness_n as_o you_o please_v and_o here_o you_o have_v as_o fair_a a_o opportunity_n of_o show_v yourself_o as_o you_o offer_v mr._n g_o only_o i_o suppose_v he_o will_v ask_v one_o favour_n of_o you_o which_o be_v that_o such_o a_o umpire_n may_v be_v choose_v as_o will_v give_v a_o free_a scope_n to_o the_o discourse_n and_o not_o cut_v it_o off_o before_o any_o thing_n be_v

province_n which_o you_o be_v please_v to_o put_v upon_o he_o so_o far_o at_o least_o as_o it_o concern_v his_o former_a argument_n but_o because_o i_o judge_v this_o a_o most_o impertinent_a method_n
