which_o end_n i_o say_v in_o my_o persuasion_n i_o be_v lead_v forth_o with_o much_o fervency_n of_o spirit_n after_o those_o teacher_n which_o be_v esteem_v of_o among_o the_o prime_a professor_n as_o man_n enlighten_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o which_o way_n i_o labour_v have_v there_o be_v a_o possibility_n to_o apprehend_v the_o true_a knowledge_n and_o mind_n of_o god_n but_o

which_o be_v at_o perfect_a enmity_n with_o god_n who_o be_v one_o spirit_n and_o can_v be_v divide_v i_o say_v i_o leave_v they_o as_o they_o be_v and_o all_o that_o ever_o i_o receive_v from_o they_o and_o seek_v further_o if_o that_o i_o may_v find_v the_o way_n of_o redemption_n from_o under_o that_o heavy_a burden_n which_o lie_v upon_o i_o in_o which_o seek_v as_o i_o have_v speak_v i_o find_v such_o who_o declare_v against_o all_o sin_n who_o order_n and_o manner_n of_o teach_v and_o duty_n be_v unite_v complete_a in_o one_o they_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o one_o mind_n by_o which_o they_o be_v join_v in_o one_o spirit_n and_o so_o judge_n and_o witness_n for_o god_n against_o all_o those_o false_a christ_n and_o false_a prophet_n who_o be_v go_v forth_o into_o the_o world_n who_o doctrine_n be_v of_o man_n who_o have_v slay_v the_o witness_n know_v not_o the_o word_n of_o life_n therefore_o uncapable_a of_o edify_v the_o people_n and_o so_o minister_n of_o the_o letter_n and_o not_o of_o the_o spirit_n here_o my_o purpose_n be_v to_o extinguish_v they_o who_o be_v ever_o learn_v the_o people_n and_o themselves_o and_o yet_o never_o able_a to_o know_v the_o truth_n and_o withal_o to_o confirm_v those_o who_o appear_v in_o such_o a_o witness_n against_o all_o sin_n who_o i_o conclude_v be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n who_o doctrine_n and_o life_n i_o have_v not_o deny_v by_o word_n in_o any_o particular_a of_o all_o what_o i_o then_o discover_v except_o in_o those_o thing_n of_o civil_a expression_n and_o carriage_n which_o otherwise_o i_o call_v ceremony_n a_o second_o thing_n which_o my_o mind_n be_v direct_v in_o be_v to_o invite_v or_o persuade_v such_o who_o be_v stranger_n to_o those_o people_n and_o their_o way_n who_o be_v call_v of_o man_n quaker_n that_o they_o shall_v inquire_v after_o that_o truth_n which_o be_v profess_v by_o they_o for_o which_o end_n i_o discover_v they_o as_o such_o who_o be_v unite_v in_o one_o mind_n and_o so_o act_v on_o in_o their_o duty_n who_o ministry_n be_v one_o be_v guide_v therein_o by_o one_o spirit_n etc._n etc._n and_o then_o i_o relate_v a_o discourse_n minister_v by_o one_o of_o those_o

thing_n be_v consider_v i_o be_v persuade_v that_o something_o of_o that_o end_n may_v be_v effect_v for_o which_o purpose_n they_o be_v discover_v have_v thus_o lay_v open_v my_o understanding_n i_o begin_v in_o the_o three_o place_n to_o give_v warning_n unto_o all_o who_o may_v be_v persuade_v to_o receive_v the_o word_n of_o truth_n that_o when_o convince_v in_o their_o understanding_n where_o that_o word_n of_o life_n which_o redeem_v out_o of_o sin_n be_v to_o be_v find_v that_o they_o consider_v and_o examine_v in_o themselves_o where_o withal_o they_o be_v lead_v that_o they_o run_v not_o before_o they_o be_v send_v but_o to_o abide_v in_o the_o watch_n that_o so_o they_o lose_v not_o their_o guide_n and_o bring_v in_o darkness_n upon_o their_o spirit_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n i_o discover_v what_o evil_a attend_v i_o through_o the_o hastiness_n of_o my_o mind_n in_o that_o i_o give_v not_o heed_n to_o that_o obedience_n whereunto_o i_o be_v call_v which_o evil_a i_o
