for_o the_o magistrate_n &_o other_o officer_n in_o huntingtonshire_n who_o have_v be_v concern_v in_o the_o spoil_v the_o good_n of_o the_o innocent_a who_o meet_v together_o in_o obedience_n to_o the_o requiring_n of_o the_o good_a spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o worship_v he_o in_o his_o own_o way_n countryman_n unto_o who_o conscience_n my_o life_n and_o conversation_n with_o many_o more_o of_o my_o friend_n have_v be_v manifest_v to_o have_v be_v peaceable_a and_o seek_v the_o good_a of_o all_o people_n and_o our_o assembly_n to_o have_v be_v peaceable_a and_o our_o meet_v together_o to_o edify_v one_o another_o in_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o now_o what_o have_v you_o against_o we_o save_v the_o law_n and_o worship_n of_o our_o god_n unto_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n jesus_n in_o all_o your_o conscience_n i_o do_v appeal_n for_o justice_n herein_o it_o be_v not_o unknown_a unto_o you_o how_o that_o i_o with_o many_o more_o of_o my_o friend_n have_v be_v deep_a sufferer_n in_o our_o estate_n under_o pretence_n of_o virtue_n of_o a_o late_a act_n to_o prevent_v and_o suppress_v seditious_a conventicle_n but_o wherein_o i_o and_o my_o friend_n be_v guilty_a do_v not_o yet_o appear_v far_o than_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o man_n it_o shall_v be_v so_o now_o friend_n and_o people_n i_o do_v acknowledge_v it_o be_v and_o have_v be_v my_o practice_n ever_o since_o i_o be_v convince_v of_o the_o precious_a truth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o jesus_n to_o meet_v with_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o to_o sit_v down_o and_o wait_v upon_o he_o in_o his_o fear_n and_o to_o worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n in_o truth_n and_o to_o draw_v near_o unto_o he_o from_o who_o i_o have_v often_o feel_v spiritual_a refreshment_n unto_o who_o honour_n and_o glory_n my_o soul_n ascribe_v the_o praise_n forever_o and_o evermore_o but_o now_o as_o to_o that_o act_n which_o you_o pretend_v to_o act_v by_o one_a it_o be_v entitle_v a_o act_n to_o prevent_v and_o suppress_v seditious_a conventicle_n which_o i_o do_v deny_v be_v guilty_a of_o frequent_v any_o seditious_a meeting_n it_o be_v those_o rude_a drunken_a informer_n who_o have_v often_o disturb_v our_o peaceable_a meeting_n and_o therein_o show_v themselves_o seditious_a and_o violent_a against_o we_o who_o be_v always_o find_v and_o know_v to_o be_v peaceable_a in_o our_o public_a meet_v place_n until_o they_o have_v break_v the_o peace_n and_o make_v a_o disturbance_n and_o it_o shall_v have_v be_v the_o magistrate_n place_n to_o have_v punish_v those_o rude_a informer_n who_o have_v so_o often_o disturb_v our_o peaceable_a meeting_n who_o meet_v together_o for_o good_a and_o not_o for_o evil._n two_o the_o act_n s_o aith_o who_o under_o pretence_n of_o tender_a conscience_n have_v or_o may_v at_o their_o meeting_n contrive_v insurrection_n as_o late_a experience_n have_v show_v now_o i_o do_v appeal_n to_o god_n witness_n in_o your_o conscience_n whenever_o have_v you_o any_o such_o experience_n of_o we_o but_o i_o do_v affirm_v that_o you_o have_v have_v large_a experience_n to_o the_o contrary_a for_o twenty_o year_n and_o upward_o where_o our_o meeting_n have_v be_v establish_v by_o the_o light_n and_o power_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n but_o if_o you_o say_v we_o know_v not_o but_o in_o time_n we_o may_v and_o therefore_o we_o will_v prevent_v you_o herein_o will_v not_o both_o nature_n ancient_a law_n and_o good_a conscience_n witness_n against_o you_o who_o will_v punish_v a_o person_n or_o people_n who_o do_v well_o because_o you_o be_v jealous_a that_o in_o time_n to_o come_v he_o or_o they_o may_v do_v evil_a beside_o do_v not_o god_n witness_n in_o your_o conscience_n witness_v for_o we_o that_o our_o principle_n lead_v to_o good_a and_o not_o to_o evil_a let_v god_n witness_n in_o your_o conscience_n be_v judge_v in_o this_o and_o of_o other_o matter_n and_o then_o righteous_a judgement_n assure_o will_v be_v give_v three_o that_o act_n forbid_v the_o number_n of_o five_o or_o above_o beside_o those_o of_o the_o household_n now_o i_o say_v if_o five_o or_o four_o three_o or_o two_o meet_v for_o evil_a they_o ought_v to_o be_v punish_v according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o evil_n act_v but_o if_o two_o three_o four_o five_o or_o five_o hundred_o meet_v together_o for_o the_o good_a and_o edification_n one_o of_o another_o in_o the_o lord_n they_o ought_v to_o be_v encourage_v and_o the_o magistrate_n ought_v to_o preserve_v they_o therein_o and_o for_o this_o end_n pay_v we_o tribute_n that_o we_o may_v be_v preserve_v in_o body_n and_o estate_n and_o live_v a_o peaceable_a godly_a and_o quiet_a life_n in_o all_o honesty_n under_o the_o government_n but_o if_o otherwise_o we_o must_v suffer_v for_o our_o obedience_n to_o god_n it_o be_v our_o principle_n patient_o to_o suffer_v under_o they_o that_o be_v set_v over_o we_o and_o so_o commit_v our_o cause_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n and_o his_o faithful_a follower_n when_o he_o be_v in_o that_o body_n prepare_v to_o do_v his_o father_n will_n and_o his_o faithful_a follower_n after_o his_o departure_n when_o they_o be_v endue_v with_o power_n from_o on_o high_a and_o so_o i_o will_v that_o all_o our_o fellow_n creature_n male_a and_o female_a do_v right_o know_v we_o and_o our_o principle_n that_o so_o they_o may_v come_v and_o sit_v down_o with_o we_o and_o receive_v a_o earnest_a of_o that_o inheritance_n and_o riches_n which_o no_o evil_a instrument_n can_v take_v away_o and_o a_o place_n in_o that_o habitation_n which_o be_v everlasting_a friend_n &_o people_n if_o we_o be_v but_o only_a pretender_n to_o worship_n god_n we_o be_v then_o of_o all_o people_n most_o miserable_a but_o thanks_o be_v to_o god_n through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n he_o have_v give_v unto_o we_o not_o only_o that_o knowledge_n that_o we_o can_v say_v it_o be_v the_o truth_n but_o praise_n to_o his_o most_o holy_a name_n he_o have_v also_o give_v we_o to_o feel_v taste_n and_o handle_v of_o the_o word_n of_o life_n whereby_o we_o know_v sensible_o all_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n to_o be_v of_o no_o value_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o love_n to_o our_o soul_n even_o to_o as_o many_o as_o walk_v before_o he_o with_o a_o perfect_a and_o upright_a heart_n christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n who_o be_v number_v among_o transgressor_n above_o sixteen_o hundred_o year_n since_o as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n he_o set_v up_o this_o worship_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n which_o we_o bear_v testimony_n unto_o and_o suffer_v for_o when_o he_o testify_v the_o end_n of_o the_o worship_n in_o the_o mountain_n and_o the_o

and_o wander_v upon_o the_o barren_a mountain_n and_o desolate_a hill_n of_o divers_a profession_n seek_v rest_n but_o find_v it_o not_o until_o the_o compassionate_a creator_n who_o behold_v the_o
