a_o rational_a creature_n if_o i_o do_v i_o must_v necessary_o be_v a_o judge_n for_o myself_o for_o if_o i_o be_o guide_v by_o another_o judgement_n than_o my_o own_o as_o that_o i_o think_v best_a

you_o make_v a_o man_n create_v in_o honour_n if_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v like_o a_o beast_n that_o perish_v as_o the_o eye_n guide_v the_o body_n so_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o

the_o necessity_n of_o every_o man_n be_v a_o judge_n for_o himself_o in_o divine_a thing_n be_v ground_v both_o upon_o scripture_n and_o reason_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a but_o a_o positive_a duty_n god_n expect_v the_o performance_n of_o and_o oblige_v every_o man_n live_v to_o and_o this_o be_v so_o for_o any_o power_n on_o earth_n to_o compel_v man_n to_o believe_v or_o practice_v contrary_a to_o their_o judgement_n and_o conscience_n must_v needs_o be_v both_o unlawful_a and_o unreasonable_a last_o the_o ill_a success_n force_n and_o imposition_n in_o religion_n

they_o can_v with_o their_o integrity_n and_o in_o this_o case_n the_o punishment_n fall_v upon_o the_o sufferer_n but_o the_o gild_n still_o upon_o the_o imposer_n either_o a_o magistrate_n impose_v

the_o martyr_n that_o have_v suffer_v for_o refuse_v the_o sinful_a command_n of_o superior_n if_o they_o be_v not_o there_o must_v be_v then_o some_o judgement_n when_o they_o be_v to_o be_v obey_v and_o when_o not_o and_o that_o can_v be_v no_o other_o than_o every_o man_n own_o conscience_n and_o if_o every_o man_n own_o conscience_n and_o the_o light_n of_o it_o be_v to_o be_v his_o rule_n
