They who understood not what they did when they gave it For it was intended to my infamy but it proves to my dignity a Cavalier signifying a Gentleman who serves or hath serv'd his King on Horse-back Mini. Then it seemes you have beene for the King Sold. I Sir and am still withall my heart to wish his honour and safety and I hold it my duty to do so Mini. Well let that passe till anon but in the interim I pray you tell me what Religion you are of for it is generally reported of you Cavaliers that you are all most infamous Livers Atheists Epicures Swearers Blasphemars Drunkards Murderers and Ravishers and at the least dapists Sold. To these and the like scandalous aspersions I will only say thus in briefe Sir that as I cannot excuse all of our Party no more then you can all of yours so I cannot but in Conscience according to my ability be bound to defend vindicate the Major part of us from such malitious and fraudulent Calumniations therefore give me leave Psal 118.22 Mat. 21.42 Act 4.11 Ephes 2.20 Sir to quench your first and greatest brand Athiesmy in Answer of your question of my Religion which I dare avouch to be the true Religion builded upon Christ and his Apostles whereof hee himselfe is the head corner-stone as was both Prophesied and testified by himselfe and his Servants Mini.

Heare O Israell the Lord thy God is one Lord. I am the first and the last and besides me there is no God I am the Lord thy God and there is none else there is no God besides mee For an Idoll is nothing and there is none other God but one God and Father of all who is above all and through all and in you all For there is one God and one Mediator betweene God and men the man as man Iesus Christ Mini. How many Divine Persons are there Sold. There is only one divine essence which is distinguished into three Persons viz. the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost Mini.

Loe here the Father testifies of the Son to the Holy Ghost who came to confirme the Sacrament of Baptisme begun in and by our Lord Iesus moreover as it were by way of interchange our Saviour promised his Disciples to send the Holy Ghost the comforter to remaine with them for ever Iohn 14. and to teach them all truth Lastly there are three which beare record in Heaven saith St. Iohn the Father the word 1 Ioh. 5.1 and the spirit and those three are one heere the second person is called word Ioh. 1.1 c.
