devil_n shall_v man_n meddle_v with_o woman_n matter_n woman_n you_o say_v well_o man_n must_v not_o meddle_v with_o woman_n matter_n but_o i_o always_o take_v thanksgiving_n to_o god_n to_o be_v a_o matter_n belong_v to_o man_n as_o well_o as_o to_o woman_n and_o if_o man_n must_v not_o meddle_v withal_o what_o shall_v the_o minister_n deal_n in_o it_o or_o why_o shall_v he_o be_v trouble_v for_o not_o meddle_v with_o this_o woman_n business_n he_o be_v not_o by_o you_o know_v at_o the_o woman_n travel_n and_o therefore_o you_o may_v do_v well_o to_o exempte_v he_o as_o well_o as_o you_o do_v other_o for_o you_o know_v when_o the_o bushop_n make_v and_o ordain_v a_o minister_n be_v give_v he_o authority_n to_o preach_v to_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n and_o to_o exercise_v discipline_n and_o not_o to_o church_n woman_n this_o by_o th'institution_n be_v no_o part_n of_o his_o office_n and_o therefore_o you_o may_v the_o rather_o pardon_v he_o if_o he_o happen_v to_o omit_v it_o chancellor_n he_o you_o know_v be_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o congregation_n and_o who_o shall_v deal_v in_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n but_o only_o he_o woman_n i_o confess_v the_o minister_n by_o his_o place_n &_o function_n ought_v to_o be_v as_o well_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n to_o deliver_v we_o his_o will_n as_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o people_n to_o god_n to_o lay_v open_a our_o want_n and_o to_o crave_v his_o assistance_n but_o in_o this_o case_n that_o you_o speak_v of_o of_o your_o solemn_a church_a or_o rather_o purify_n of_o woman_n he_o be_v neither_o of_o both_o he_o make_v show_v as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o of_o thanksgiving_n but_o give_v none_o in_o deed_n in_o so_o much_o that_o yourselves_o can_v not_o tell_v what_o to_o make_v of_o it_o for_o your_o life_n as_o a_o service_n that_o be_v neither_o fish_n nor_o flesh_n nor_o good_a red_a hear_n and_o yet_o you_o must_v needs_o defend_v it_o and_o maintain_v it_o and_o that_o stiff_o

so_o bad_a as_o the_o world_n make_v of_o it_o some_o matter_n there_o be_v and_o some_o trouble_n of_o mind_n the_o poor_a man_n have_v towards_o his_o end_n but_o yea_o faith_n we_o ought_v to_o judge_v the_o best_a woman_n why_o do_v not_o his_o master_n who_o he_o serve_v so_o devout_o summon_v he_o at_o his_o death_n to_o pay_v his_o fee_n or_o do_v he_o not_o confess_v at_o that_o time_n that_o the_o devil_n appear_v unto_o he_o to_o bid_v he_o dispatch_v and_o make_v haste_n and_o do_v he_o not_o there-upon_o end_v his_o day_n in_o great_a misery_n to_o the_o beholder_n with_o

pleasure_n to_o compel_v any_o woman_n to_o be_v church_v chancellor_n well_o we_o will_v talk_v of_o that_o another_o time_n but_o i_o will_v to_o god_n you_o foolish_a woman_n will_v meddle_v with_o

which_o you_o understand_v not_o but_o i_o pray_v you_o tell_v i_o one_o thing_n what_o if_o the_o church_n now_o will_v institute_v and_o ordain_v a_o solemn_a purify_n of_o woman_n will_v you_o not_o be_v purify_v woman_n no_o indeed_o will_v i_o not_o for_o if_o i_o shall_v i_o shall_v then_o either_o with_o the_o jew_n deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n to_o give_v a_o end_n to_o those_o shadow_n which_o be_v figure_n of_o the_o purify_n and_o wash_v away_o of_o our_o sin_n by_o his_o blood_n or_o else_o with_o the_o papist_n i_o must_v deny_v the_o bloudshead_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o only_a and_o alone_a sufficient_a purgation_n of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o supply_n and_o be_v fart_n she_o

you_o be_v deceyve_v in_o the_o heat_n of_o your_o zeal_n look_v in_o the_o book_n there_o be_v no_o such_o matter_n of_o purify_n as_o you_o speak_v of_o but_o only_o of_o thanksgiving_n woman_n trust_v i_o you_o say_v true_a i_o have_v almost_o forget_v that_o it_o speak_v not_o a_o word_n indeed_o of_o purify_n but_o what_o a_o juggle_a &_o blear_a of_o th'eis_n of_o the_o simple_a be_v this_o among_o you_o may_v we_o not_o herein_o say_v of_o you_o &_o your_o fellow_n that_o you_o be_v the_o most_o perilous_a instrument_n and_o dangerous_a impostor_n that_o ever_o satan_n raise_v

belike_o you_o be_v among_o your_o scold_a dame_n and_o prattle_a huswife_n at_o home_n woman_n no_o good_a master_n chancellor_n i_o know_v i_o thank_v god_n where_o i_o be_o neither_o be_o i_o any_o

rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o you_o who_o like_o good_a fellow_n yet_o in_o plain_n and_o open_a term_n even_o bear_v face_v as_o it_o be_v do_v seek_v to_o seduce_v we_o and_o to_o draw_v

much_o more_o dangerous_o and_o even_o under_o a_o mask_n or_o vizard_n as_o it_o be_v and_o not_o unlike_a to_o he_o that_o transform_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n do_v go_v about_o to_o draw_v and_o allure_v we_o to_o the_o self_n same_o false_a worship_n &_o service_n but_o by_o cleanly_a name_n and_o honest_a title_n as_o to_o their_o purification_n by_o the_o title_n and_o

to_o be_v purify_v chancellor_n in_o good_a faith_n it_o be_v more_o they_o i_o have_v consider_v of_o whether_o that_o in_o popery_n be_v so_o near_o agree_v to_o we_o as_o you_o speak_v of_o i_o believe_v your_o leader_n have_v misinform_v you_o but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v and_o howsoever_o the_o papist_n do_v hold_v and_o account_v of_o it_o it_o make_v no_o great_a matter_n the_o church_n you_o see_v now_o hold_v it_o for_o no_o other_o than_o a_o mere_a thanksgiving_n which_o be_v very_a deeent_n and_o requisite_a for_o every_o woman_n after_o so_o great_a deliverance_n woman_n what_o

will_v you_o have_v we_o serve_v god_n for_o decency_n sometime_o again_o you_o say_v that_o church_a be_v a_o thing_n indifferent_a a_o trifle_n and_o a_o matter_n of_o nothing_o and_o yet_o you_o will_v needs_o have_v it_o to_o he_o a_o thanksgiving_n to_o god_n how_o can_v this_o hang_v together_o then_o that_o one_o &_o the_o same_o thing_n shall_v be_v a_o matter_n of_o decency_n of_o

the_o ceremony_n of_o it_o as_o the_o time_n and_o the_o attire_n the_o company_n of_o woman_n the_o offering_n and_o the_o feast_n of_o neighbour_n and_o friend_n to_o be_v as_o thing_n indifferent_a &_o of_o no_o moment_n but_o not_o the_o prayer_n and_o thanksgiving_n in_o the_o church_n that_o i_o hold_v to_o be_v holy_a and_o not_o indifferent_a woman_n the_o truth_n be_v you_o hold_v you_o

you_o may_v do_v well_o in_o my_o conceit_n to_o let_v they_o both_o henceforward_o sleep_v and_o surcease_v for_o let_v the_o poor_a woman_n that_o have_v escape_v be_v never_o so_o thankful_a or_o
